Why do people say " in THE beginning..."? There is not a THE there. Ha means "the". It is absent in b'resheit, So its "in A beginning."

Ooh, that could be an interesting discussion as there might be more thought around that subject. Would you dare to take it there??? ?

The prefix BE means in so it is actually there not as a root word but as a prefix.

Thats not how I was taught ancient hebrew..."b" means in. If theres no "ha", "a" singular article is presumed.

The inclusion of an evolutionary process to creation by some denominations not only undermines Biblical authority it confuses believers. attempting to say the Bible is true but God could have created the earth before the Biblical timeline destroys the trust believers should have that what they read in the Bible is true. Removing the truth in the Bible allows room to remove the opening statement, “In the beginning God.”

If only friends can comment, then if I could friend everyone on the site I would, because there is no one whose comment I don't want to see.

Even if it didn't increase interaction in general, if there was one person who wanted to comment, I would want to have friended him so he could.

This of course means I can't use friending to keep track of people or show association or any of the other things one would use friending for - it simply is "who do you not want to block by default", which is everybody.

The only issue I've had is that the friend's only method blocks comments in groups, too. So, if I am in a group with someone, I cannot comment on a group post of theirs unless we are friends.
