    Strangely, this word 'meek' has a completely different meaning in a French dictionary, please... look it up.

    Meek does not mean "mild-mannered' as is commonly believed. Meek means not taking vengeance on your enemy when you actually have the opportunity. Ever see a movie where the good guy is holding a gun on the bad guy and chooses not to kill him? That is meekness in the biblical sense.

    I claim it now.

    The meek may inherit the earth, but probably not the mineral rights.

    The quiet ones.

    Liiike, the ones who don't go, "THIS IS MY BELIEF AND YOU SHOULD BELIEVE IT TOO CAUSE YOU'LL BE DAMNED IF YOU DON'T" That's not meek. That's Pride and Arrogance- that's a sin.

    Meekness is a quiet, subdued, respect for every person.

    The doormats and cowards need love too, at least they get some from the Bible.

    The meek are those will be tortured by the False Messiah and his armies of power and technology.

    They are all around. They inherit it in sections, six foot long, by six foot deep by 3 food wide... Unless they are obese and or very tall.
