I am trying to find the correct conversational translation for "wisely if sincerely". The Latin is "sapienter si sincere"

Using online dictionaries I got "cannie gin aefauld". Is this correct? This is my family's motto (Clan Davidson) I plan to include it in a tattoo therefore it is extremely important that I get the translation correct given it may be on my body for the rest of my life!

PLEASE NOTE, I know these words are correct what I don't know if there usage is correct. To expand, Direct translation while technically correct is often not how a native speaker of the language would use the words.

I have asked this three times before, and got a good suggestion for an online translator, I have done this already and am looking for confirmation by a speaker of or at least conversant in Gaelic. I understand that there are difference in Scottish gaelic and Irish gaelic but at this point I will accept either

thank you

I know that he isn't required to attend but I thought It was odd.

I also didn't hear any news as to why he did not attend.

PLEASE NO RANTS JUST A FACTUAL ANSWER -- Thank you

Do you feel a little bit like the munchkins after Dorothy dropped a house on the wicked witch of the east. "come out come out wherever you are"

I just answered the question who is the best president, by offering a continuum of best, good, well meaning/unsuccessful, bad, and ineffectual. I got three thumbs down.

so here is your chance, please tell me how you would reorder the list and my assessment.

I only have 37 presidents listed because those were all I could remember without doing research.

I think that the short list of bests would have to include

Washington

Jefferson

Madison

Lincoln

Theodore Roosevelt

Franklin Roosevelt

Good but not best would have to include

Adams

Monroe

Jackson

Taft

Wilson

Truman

Kennedy

Johnson

Reagan (first term)

Clinton

Well meaning but not successful

J Quincy Adams

Coolidge

Hoover

Ford

Carter

Geo. HW Bush

Bad, abject failure, or wholly unsuited for the job

Buchanan

Johnson (19th c)

Grant

Harding

Nixon

G W Bush

The rest could be called lack luster at best (often referred to the "do-nothings")

Included in the group would be

Harrison

Tyler

Tayler

Hayes

Arthur

Garfield

Cleveland

Polk

McKinley and all the rest not already mentioned

At the end of a sports match the winners and losers shakes hands before walking off the field. This is good sportsmanship.

On November 5th, when your guy looses will you be willing to give the other guy a chance to try a lead this country out of the mess it is in?

Or will this screed against every element of the candidates continue unabated?

Do you think it is wrong for a candidate having regularly attended services of one religious denomination for over 25 years and then claiming that they were not a member/believer of that faith? Even though they still attend special services and events and evening lead prayer and preach at that church/faith?

What does this say about their character? Do you think that denying ones faith for what may be construed as political gain (to make them more main stream) calls into question anything else they might say?

And guess what I am not talking about Obama but rather Palin.

The outfit Cindy McCain wore when giving her speech at the convention cost an estimated $300,000!

http://www.vanityfair.com/online/politics/2008/09/...

I find it ironic that for all the "small town values" talk that the wife of the RNC nominee would wear and outfit that cost about the same as my house.

what do you think?

Why is it that it seems that so many people who oppose abortion also oppose promoting the use of contraception?

Although I am pro-choice I can respect the difference of opinion on the issue of abortion.

What I don't understand is why so many also oppose contraception. Wouldn't make sense to prevent the pregnancy from happening in the first place?

I understand that there a certain religious beliefs oppose contraception, but practical reality is that people have sex (at least 7 billion times in the last 80 years) so why not give them the means to prevent unwanted pregnancies?

I am genuinely looking for cogent arguments not ranting please

Cindy McCain is worth in excess of $100 million dollars. Yet no one seems to bring this up.

Bush is from one of the oldest and wealthiest family in the US, yet no seems to bring this up either. From New England and went to Yale

Obama is not from money, and is largly a self-made man yet HE is Attacked for being an ellitest??? What gives

"What influence, in fact, have ecclesiastical establishments had on society? In some instances they have been seen to erect a spiritual tyranny on the ruins of the civil authority; on many instances they have been seen upholding the thrones of political tyranny; in no instance have they been the guardians of the liberties of the people. Rulers who wish to subvert the public liberty have found an established clergy convenient auxiliaries. A just government, instituted to secure and perpetuate it, needs them not."

"The Government of the United States of america is not in any sense founded on the Christian religion"

The blessed Religion revealed in the word of God will remain an eternal and awful monument to prove that the best Institutions may be abused by human depravity; and that they may even, in some instances, be made subservient to the vilest of purposes.

"As the Government of the United States of America is not in any sense founded on the Christian religion”

"Of all the systems of religion that ever were invented, there is no more derogatory to the Almighty, more unedifiying to man, more repugnant to reason, and more contradictory to itself than this thing called Christianity. "

"What influence, in fact, have religions* had on society? In some instances they have been seen to erect a spiritual tyranny on the ruins of the civil authority; on many instances they have been seen upholding the thrones of political tyranny; in no instance have they been the guardians of the liberties of the people. A just government, instituted to secure and perpetuate it, needs them not."

There is so much vitriolic language directed at the "liberals"

They are called wackos, communists, socialists, weak, tax and spend, cowardly etc.

The term liberal within a political context really should mean people who support social change and the general betterment of the human condition. What is exactly wrong with that?

Further it shouldn't and can't automatically be chained with another concept such a socialism or communism. FDR and Harry Truman, for example, were fervent liberals but strictly ant-communist.

And as far as taxing and spending, this is by far not a liberal exclusive trait. The current administration has spent this country almost to point of bankruptcy. Eventually we are going to have to pay the check whish means taxes. Otherwise how does one propose we do it?

Can we get away from name calling and discuss topics in a rational fashion or have we all just succumed to schoolyard bully tactics?

this a quiz:

List all 42 men who have been president of the US.

No cheating How many can you remember.

I will admit I only got 41 and only 36 in the right order
