  • WHERE was the earliest available version of the Gospel of Mark unearthed?

    I know there are a lot of manscripts for Mark and I know the dates typically attributed to it's authorship. However, I'm really interested to know from WHERE any of the earlier manuscripts were found or raised from.

    And please please please provide a source. Yahoo Answers is a useless pile of hearsay when sources are not cited. Thank you! I'll give best answer to the first person to reply with a sufficient answer and a source.

  • What are the PRIMARY historical sources proving the existence of Caesar, Mark Antony, and Cleopatra?

    This is of great personal intrest to me. I am hoping to put together some kind of report for personal use. I've been looking for primary historical sources for a lot of people from this period, and these figures' sources have alluded me. Any help would be much appreciated.

    I am also very interested in how removed these sources are from the events/people they refer to. (What with historical documents from then being passed down through scribes and all, it is extremely rare to have contemporary primary sources from this period.)

    Please post links whenever possible, I am hopping to be as scholarly as possible about this, because that's how I roll.

  • Night-time Insomnia: Is it a condition and what can I do about it?

    Is there such a medical condition as night-time-insomnia? For the last month or so I have been unable to sleep for any longer than two hours at night, so I would end up sleeping through the day. I thought this was probably just my sleep schedule until I started working days, thinking I would wear myself out and force myself to sleep at night, but so far I've only once gotten myself to sleep longer than two hours... Even if I only got two hours the night before, I can only get two hours the next night, and then I can lay restlessly in bed for another few hours until I have to get up. I remain tired all day, and then at night I get my energy back and can't sleep more than two hours again until morning.

    1. Is the some kind of condition?

    2. Am I the only one (here at least)?

    3. Can I fix it?

    4. How?

  • Is George W. Bush just cute now?

    http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/11/11/bush.post.p...

    I'm starting to believe Bush when he says he wants to make a smooth transition to the next President. And as this article points out, he has some appropriate regrets. It doesn't make him a better president, but I can like him a little better now if he can finally admit the mistakes he's made and looking out to make sure Obama can get done what he intends to get done.

    He gracefully stepping aside, and I appreciate that.

    What do you all think?

  • "Mobile Email" on AT&T phones no longer works for Yahoo mail?

    I think this is because Yahoo started kind of requiring you to sign in with your full email address, as a result of their additions of two other domain names. Mobile Email does not like that, or that is my theory. I can;t log in with just my screen name OR my full email address.

    I figured out a partial work around, however. Put in all your info, and as it is trying to sign you in, quit the application. Then you'll receive email alerts, however, you have to cancel out of them and check your mail by other means.

    What I am looking for is either a full work around for this phone app, or another generic phone app that can check email. (I've already tried Yahoo Go! it does not work on my phone. However, if anyone knows where I could DL YGo! 2.0 rather than 3.0, that might work.)

  • McCain Supporters: Does your opinion of the current president affect your vote?

    Are you likely to vote for McCain because you also like our current president, or are you voting for McCain as a change from him... or does it not matter to you? How do you feel about your candidate being labeled as a moderate?

    I'm purely curious, and please, McCainites only, I'd like to see an honest result, and I'd hope everyone else would too.

  • Hillary Backers: Are you ready yo sell out your morals?

    Are you ready to vote for McCain, a candidate that embodies everything Hillary stands against, to protest Hillary's rightful second place status in the primary?

    Obama and Hillary have almost identical stances on most major issues. McCain plans to continue the same policies that have sent us down hill the last 8 years, and everybody knows it, especially you guys.

    So how do you justify a vote for John McCain?

  • Do you think Obama ran unopposed for his senate seat?

    ...And if you do, did you know that is not even true? Do you really believe this steadfast, despite the stark contrast reality holds, or did some lier deceive you, an you are just now finding out you were misslead?

    So, yeah. Obama did not run unopposed for his senate seat, as some here seem to think. He ran against Republican Alan Keyes and won so handedly he only MIGHT AS WELL have ran unopposed. :-P

    Additionally, in the Democratic primary for the race, he faced a slew of opponents and still received over half the votes (IE more than everyone else combined).

  • Did you know that Mississppi held a primary and NOT a caucus?

    I've seen a few people on here saying it was a caucus in some misguided effort to marginalize Obama's 24 point win just because he does well in those.

    While I am at it, did you know that a recent SureveyUSA poll of 600 people in every state (totaling 30,000 nation wide) shows that either Hillary OR Obama would carry the party to the White House, Obama doing so with a comfortable margin, and Hillary doing so by a small margin. Why? Because after the true-blue states that either candidate would win, Obama will also likely pick up a half dozen or so red states as well, according to the extensive survey.

    Did you know THAT? Because many act as if they do not.

  • Super Tuesday 2?

    I was wondering what nic-names for the TX, OH, VT etc you've heard being thrown around on TV. Anything besides Super Tuesday 2?

    I think they can do better than that.

    Please try to remember what news source or person coined whatever term you heard, that would be nie.

  • Ron Paul supporters:?

    What is your opinion on Ron Paul's very extreme pro-life stance. It looks like he supports a constitutional amendment that would define life as starting from conception.

    I ask because I am under the impression that a lot of Paul's supporters are young liberals that are crossing over for this election.

    So again, Paul supporters only: How do you feel about his position?

  • Srsly: Can Huckabee win?

    I read on CNN that even if he goes 50-40 on every state from here on out, he will not get the nomination.

    I've heard that his only real chance is to PREVENT McCain from getting enough delegates to secure the nomination, and then maybe the uncommitted delegates will swing his way.

    How does this math break down? If he sweeps the states by even larger margins than 50-40 can he win straight-away? If he loses one more state is he statistically though, or is there still even the slightest chance?

    GOP Primaries are mostly winner take all, but what states are left that divide delegates proportionately for GOP candidates?

    Probabilities aside, I just want to know if it's POSSIBLE for him to win still and if losing one more state will kill that indefinitely or not.
