Damage done to a person through writing is called libel. Slander is spoken defamation. Both libel and slander are types of defamation, and generally four or more people besides the victim would be witnesses for it to meet the legal definition. Plus one would have to prove harm.
Of course, there are relaxed standards when public figures are involved. Just calling a politician a crook or a liar may not be enough to be considered defamation, since maliciousness would be required. So another politician or member of the press would be more likely to get hit by such a suit as opposed to a regular person who stands nothing to gain from any attempt at defamation.

The safest way to make sure that a person's computer is free of adware is to avoid downloading any program that will contain adware. That is the first line of security. However, there are plenty of programs available to make sure that a user's computer is clear, safe, and clean from advertisement and harm. Software such as MalwareBytes, Norton, Avast, and Kaspersky can offer scans and scanning to determine the health of your computer. These antivirus and anti-adware programs can scan a computer to locate viruses, malware, and adware. Whatever a person uses, one can be more sure that their computer is safer and more secure from harm and maliciousness.

You can sue a person for defamation (which includes accusations) when you can successfully prove a few things:
- The statements and/or accusations were false.
- The statements and/or accusations were made purposely and maliciously 1.
- The statements and/or accusations caused you damages or significantly damaged your character 2.
In any civil suit, the plaintiffs bare the burden of evidence. You'll be required to prove those three things to the judge in order to be successful.
1 - Maliciousness can include: retribution, retaliation for another case, job, argument, harassment, to purposely cause injury to anothers character.
2 - Damages include, Losing your job, incurring injury, loss of wages, hospital bills that happened, the loss of character, etc.

The common definition of murder is to intentionally kill someone. The legal definition and application can vary slightly between states and more so between countries, but there are generally different degrees; there is a first degree murder with forethought and/or maliciousness, a second degree with an intent but lack of predetermination, and then other related crimes involving killing with less or no specific intent such as manslaughter or wanton negligence. Again generally, if there is evidence you planned a murder and/or show enough malice towards a specific person before the act, you will be charged with first degree murder. If, for example, a stranger provokes you at the gun range, you see red turn around and shoot him, that's probably lesser degree murder though prosecutors are free to argue up to first degree murder or down to manslaughter depending on the specific facts.

Yes, because any marriage that is outside the Catholic Church, and not bound by the sacrament of Holy matrimony, is null and void.
A cautionary note to the above: the Catholic Church recognizes marriages between baptized individuals as binding. If a Catholic attempts to contract marriage outside the Church then the marriage is null and void. However that applies only to a Catholic, since a Catholic is obliged by their religion to contract a sacramental marriage within the Church and ignorance of this duty is not an acceptable excuse. A baptist that marries another Protestant or even a Catholic - provided a dispensation has been acquired - is married in the eyes of the Church and cannot secure a divorce. The reason that baptized individuals who are non-Catholics are considered married is because marriage as a sacrament is administered by the baptized couple. The priest is only a witness. The validity of the sacrament as binding is secured without a priest in the case of non-baptized Catholics since they do not secure marriage this way out of maliciousness but out of ignorance., thus, validity is provided by the sacrament that they not live in sin as man and woman.Before the person can move to receive orders they must submit their marriage for scrutiny by the Church. If their marriage was valid, they cannot receive orders.

The word - promiscuous - does not appear in the King James version. So that can't be the case.
In dictionaries, the word has two meanings.
1) (of a person) having many sexual relationships, especially transient ones
2) demonstrating or implying an undiscriminating or unselective approach; indiscriminate or casual
Meaning two is not necessarily referencing sexual standards. And neither meaning explicitly implies sinfulness.
Second answer...yes it does mean sexual sin in the bible: sexual immorality would be the word the bible uses. Being promiscuous means sleeping around..having more then one sexual partner ...while being unmarried.
Romans 1:28-30 (New King James Version)28 And even as they did not like to retain God in theirknowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; 29 being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they arewhisperers, 30 backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,There are many verses in the bible that talks about not being involved in sexually immoral behavior.

Yes. Of course, UI benefits, even for those at max in the most highly paid areas, are about 8K over the course of the allowed 6 months...which is rather small amount to feel is impossible to repay, and hence...as BK involves everything you own as well as everything you owe...you would want to lose and give up everything you have over to do.
Below are the list of the main things you cannot discharge in BK. But, lets be straight. UI pays you, you don't pay it. There is no UI program that is a loan and needs to be be paid back. You would only pay them back if you collected wrongfully or by deceit (like you went back to work and still filed like you were unemployed thinking no one would know). You swore everytime you filed that you knew collecting them when you shouldn't would be illegal and fraudulent. I suspect they made you a deal that as long as you pay them back, it won't be prosecuted, (or maybe they still will)? Debts (and legal penalties) and anything connected with illegal acts will not be discharged in BK. If you're doing a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, you can't discharge: * Taxes and tax liens * Student loans * Domestic support obligations (child support and alimony) * Luxury goods over $500 purchased within 90 days of filing * Fines or penalties of government agencies * Cash advances of more than $750 taken within 70 days of filing * Fraudulent debts * Willful or malicious injury to another * Death or personal injury from the operation of a motor vehicle, aircraft or vessel while intoxicated * Condominium or cooperative association fees * Debts not listed on your schedules Debts arising from fraud or maliciousness are not automatically excepted from discharge. MORE IMPORTANTLY..MAYBE IT'S TIME TO DECIDE IF YOUR REALLY EQUIPPED OR EVEN GETTING ANYWHERE TRYING TO BEAT THE SYSTEM?

The ability to avoid ever, EVER admitting error or mistake. A person infected with victimitis infinitis is superior and perfect and never makes mistakes. Any problem with the victimitis' personal circumstances -- debt, low wages, broken car, poor health, accidents -- is always due to the negligence and/or maliciousness of someone else.
Many people believe that victimitis infinitisi are consumate actors. Actually, they are not. Victimitis infinitisi sincerely believe, despite a life time of trouble, that they are victims because their obvious superiority draws the evil "them" predators who individually and collectively, prey upon on the victimis infinitisi to wreck havoc. and draw these superior people down to "their" level.
Most humans go through a victimitis infinitus phase as children, but nearly all of us outgrow it. Some of us, however, do not and grow on to lead lives that to themselves appear to be models of virtue and sagacity in the face of huge social, economic and physical challenges. Since victimitis infinitisi truly believe in their own superiority and victimhood, many casual friends are drawn into the victimitis infinitis pity party and may join the victim in castigating or attacking the evil "them." The evil "them" often include family members who are financially and emotionally exhausted from the endless rescue that victimitis infinitis requires.
Alert humans may avoid being drawn into dysfunctional vicctimitis infinitis rescue parties by ascessing said victim with an experienced eye: has this person been in debt for much of their adult life? does this person have expensive tastes in clothing, food or art which are not sustainable given their income level? does this person tell of a whole series of undervalued jobs with evil, unappreciative bosses? has this person been in trouble with the law on numerous occasions with each trial resulting in a miscarriage of justice? does this person have any first degree family members who are still on productive speaking terms with them?

To dream of a wolf is a symbol of self-sufficiency, pride, survival, beauty, and individualism. You keep your cool in most situations and solve your problems with grace and elegance.
Snarling, biting, or growling wolves are negative forces. This could mean maliciousness, belligerence, aggression, or an event in your life over which you have little to no control. In essence, you are lashing out at a situation where you feel cornered, confused, frightened, etc.
A white wolf (or wolves), however, is a highly positive image. It could stand for triumph over an event or misfortune. It could also symbolize an overwhelming sense of optimism and positivity. You are an aura of confidence and security.
The number two also bears significance. It stands for balance and unison, a duo or partnership. Respectively, it can also be a duality of two things. Good and band, yin and yang, etc.
So perhaps you are at a time in your life where you feel balanced in a situation that would usually make you feel otherwise, and you tackle it with valor, grace, and cool composure.
I hope this helped!

1Cor:5:1: It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife.
1Cor:6:13: Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.
1Cor:6:18: Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

Yes this is a few and I will give you some of them. What is in Red is the Lord speaking.
**I'd argue that the Matthew passage is not addressing homosexuality. Unfortunately, by the time Jesus came around, marriage was restricted to man and wife (which changes constantly throughout history) and so by being asked about the nature of divorce, Jesus would only answer in the definition of his time and culture.
Mat 19:4 And he answered and said, Have ye not read, that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female,
Mat 19:5 and said, For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh?
Rom 1:26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile passions: for their women changed the natural use into that which is against nature:
Rom 1:27 and likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another, men with men working unseemliness, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was due.
Rom 1:28 And even as they refused to have God in their knowledge, God gave them up unto a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not fitting;
Rom 1:29 being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
Rom 1:30 backbiters, hateful to God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
Rom 1:31 without understanding, covenant-breakers, without natural affection, unmerciful:
Rom 1:32 who, knowing the ordinance of God, that they that practise such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but also consent with them that practise them.
**This changes depending on whichever translation of the bible you use. "The Message" for example rephrases this to say those who abuse sex, with no finger-pointing.
1Co 6:9 Or know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with men,
1Co 6:10 nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
I hope this helps you with your question.

Rom 1:21-32 KJV Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

(v.28) And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; (v.29) Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, (v.30) Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, (v.31) Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: (v.32) Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

No, of course not. They aren't your financial responsibility or obligation, your just acting as an accountant (if that)....they must be your debts and your assets to be included.
Everything YOU owe and everything YOU own is included. Some may end up being exempt, as below, but they are included and then classed. What you own is used to pay what you owe.

Satan
AnswerContrary to the above, the serpent is never named. It is simply called the 'most cunning of the beasts', and is never ever equated with Satan.In fact, the early Jews did not even have an idea of a personification of evil (ie the devil, Satan, lucifer) as we do. The idea that somehow the serpent represented Satan was a much later interpretation.
Answer:
The "hissing" sound of the "whispering enchanter" or "nachash" is where the translators derived the word "snake" in Genesis 3.
The Hebrew for "subtil" or "clever," according to Strong's Definitions, means: "cunning (usually in a bad sense.)"
As stated above, the snake is never named in the Genesis account... but within the entire account of God's Word, the Bible, which God caused to be written "line upon line... here a little, and there a little" (Isa.28:13)... we discover the identity of the serpent.
The identity, however, is revealed in the New Testament... the testament that "illuminates" the "closed and sealed" words of the Old (Dan.12:9). The Jews, of course, couldn't ID the serpent, because of their rejection of Christ... and the New Testament.
Paul wrote to the church in Corinth: "...I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through subtilty..." (II Cor.11:3).
The "snake" to which Paul refers is: "ophis" "a snake, figuratively (as a type of sly cunning) an artful malicious person...".
Then... within the "Acts of the Apostles" Paul confronts one "Elymas the sorcerer" (Barjesus).
"Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Spirit, set his eyes on him [Elymas the sorcerer], and said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the Devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?" (Acts 13:9-10)
So, the New Testament revelation is that subtilty, cunning (in the bad sense) and maliciousness is the practiced art of the Devil and his children.
Finally, the serpent is named for us in the last book of the Bible: "...the great Dragon was cast out, that oldserpent [ophis], called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world..." (Rev.12:9).

Arguably, not all lies are bad. Sometimes they are seen as more of a social lubricant, and at other times, they can sometimes prevent harm to others. Here are the typical reasons that people lie:
1. To escape the consequences of their actions. They may fear their spouse finding out about an affair, or maybe they committed a very serious crime and don't want to go to prison.
2. To get along with others. Sometimes, it is easier to lie than to risk offending someone. For instance, is there ever a correct way to answer the question about whether a particular dress makes a woman look fat? She is not asking out of a desire to get the truth. She already believes she is fat or she wouldn't be asking it. Instead, she is likely pitching for a compliment or reassurance. Or if someone's clothes are ugly, and they ask, it may be easier to just say, "Well, you do have interesting tastes." If a business competitor asks how well you are doing, a good standard answer is, "Surprising." That is a bit evasive and ambiguous, since it could be surprisingly well or surprisingly bad.
3. For the presumed good of others. For instance, a policeman may lie when someone asks over the phone if a family member died. The reason they would lie would be to keep the person from harming themselves or risking the lives of others. They might drive wildly to the hospital. But telling them their family member is injured will make them less likely to get in a wreck themselves on the way to the hospital. Then at the scene, the officer can tell the truth.
4. To get out of a dangerous situation. You might have to assure an unstable person that you did or didn't do certain things, even if what you are telling them is deceptive, just to get out of the situation alive. Then that will buy time to get away or to contact the police. When dealing with the mentally ill, you might have to play along with some of their wild accusations, maybe even apologize for doing what you didn't do, all just to help them deescalate.
5. To catch liars or wrongdoers. For instance, if a confronted cheating spouse says they were at the movies, you might ask them to tell you about the wreck in front of the theater. If they have a ready answer, then they likely are telling the truth. However, if they stall, stammer, and perhaps are unable to look you in the eye, then you know they are lying. The police also lie to suspects, and being an undercover agent is a type of lying because they are not actually one of the criminals they are trying to help build a case against.
6. To be noble or modest. A mother might lie about being hungry or her food preferences so the kids won't feel guilty taking the last piece of dessert. Or a person might lie about a kind deed they did or give the credit to another just to keep the focus off of themselves.
7. To get others in trouble. Sometimes people lie out of revenge or maliciousness. So they make up something or claim they saw something they didn't.
8. Practical jokes and entertainment. Playing a trick on someone is, in essence, a form of lying. If you tell someone the sky is green, they will likely look, particularly if your tale is convincing enough. Even acting is a lie, since if you dress up as a police officer in a television show, you are still not an actual police officer.
9. To commit acts of fraud or other criminal acts. Scam artists lie to try to con you into giving them your money. Or a hacker may call up someone, spin a story about being a maintenance technician, and needing their password to access the system. But they are not even related to the company nor a technician of any sort. A similar example is phishing. That is when someone passes as someone you trust to try to trick you into giving them personal information, passwords, and financial details. From there, they may steal your money or your identification.

Some debts cannot be cleared (child support, judgments, certain student loans, most notably. Basically all loans other than government ones are private and nothing special). A list of debts AND assets that can't be cleared or taken is below.
I'm not sure what the above intended, but it is incorrect to think there is any quality or quantity of debt required to file. Many people go BK on just credit card debt (probably the most common thing in fact), with no secured or priority debt. (In fact, generally a credit card co that gets a judgment and can secure it to a property of yours...probably won't have the BK clear it, as judgments aren't covered in BK).
But you should also note that BK doesn't just eliminate debts...or debts of your choice.
You go bankrupt, not the debt. It involves all of your assets and all of your debts. In basic form...all of your assets (again minus some few exempt things), are surrendered and liquidated with the money used to pay as much of the debts as possible (all debts are given a priority - first as secured like a car loan or unsecured which means against everything generally)...some are paid more, some less)...any resulting deficiency may be eliminated (wiped clean). You do not get to get rid of the debt AND keep what you may have gotten with it, (or invested/paid for elsewhere, instead of paying the amount owed).

The question of good is metaphysical, but we will treat here primarily concerning morality as this is probably what the answer calls for. Morality for a Catholic is based upon the will's uniformity with the dictates of human nature and harmony with the Divine Law. What this means is basically whether a person responds correctly to reality.
In order to be moral one must be capable of committing a human act. A human act is any act or engaged thought that is derived from the human faculties of the intellect and will. If the intellect and will are suspended, either by insanity, intoxication, damage or duress one cannot make a human act and thus one cannot commit a moral act. Culpability or merit is difficult to determine depending on how much of one's faculties have been suspended. For the sake of the question, we will assume one is in possession of their faculties.
When one acts according to one's own nature, the act is good. For instance, it is human nature to preserve one's own life, to not murder or steal, to help establish, maintain and protect a social body, to assist other humans, etc. To violate human nature by some unnatural act is to act poorly or do bad. Because human beings are sometimes imperfect in their reasoning abilities, able to affected by poor judgment, emotions and passions, Catholics believe that God revealed a Divine Law that not only reinforces the natural law written on the fleshy tablets of men's hearts, but clearly dictates higher realities to which man's spiritual and corporeal nature must respond. Man is obliged to conform his will to the Divine Law as justice demands he respect the directives of his Creator. To this end, if a human acts in accordance and harmony with God's Law, he or she acts well or does good. If they act against or violate God's Law they act wrongly or do evil.
Human beings are rarely purely good or bad, however, each one of their human acts has a morality. For those humans throughout history to the present who were or are in ignorance of the Divine Law, who have no access or means to access the Divine revelation, they must live according to the natural law and they will commit good or evil acts depending on their ability to conform to the natural law through the discernment of their conscience. However, in this day and age, when the Gospel is spread over all the Earth, the chances of such invincible, inculpable ignorance are practically zero. Catholics believe that one's ability to commit and merit from a good act requires unity with God through grace. This unity is broken by a violation of the natural or divine law, which Catholics call a sin. They also believe that sin can be venial or mortal depending on the offense, how serious the offense is, and whether one has chosen to reject their natural and supernatural obligations out of weakness or out of maliciousness. If one commits a mortal sin, this would separate the person from the grace and unity of God, whereas venial sins still maintain this grace but must nevertheless be atoned for in the natural and supernatural order as justice demands. Mortal sin is a terrible disunity; even if one continues to make acts that are in accordance with the natural and divine law, these are not good acts since the will has not been reconciled to God and hence the orientation of all human acts is distorted. Humans that fall into sin may seek to reestablish themselves as agents of good by satisfying natural justice and/or divine justice (for Catholics, this is done through the humble act and sacrament of Confession and performance of penance). Reestablishing harmony with nature and the Divine is a good act and will once again align one's will with God and what is moral allowing one to make good and thus meritorious acts.
Human beings are not "good" or "bad" - they are complex; it is their actions are either good and bad. What matters is their harmony with nature and God, if they cause disharmony they act as an agent of evil, if they act rightly they act as an agent of good. In the end, those souls that die in harmony with nature and God's Will will be granted the Beatific Vision, the manifestation of the union with God they already lived while on Earth by being agents of good. Those that die in disharmony with nature and God will be granted hell, the manifestation of their disunity already begun on earth by being agents of evil. As a note of interest pertaining to metaphysical good, even in hell, complexity remains, as to exist is "good", thus even damned souls have a sliver of good remaining in so much as they exist. This is why the damned would rather destroy themselves - it is not so much to escape the sufferings of their conscience, body and soul as to spite their Creator Who maintains them in existence through His positive Will.

When you file bankruptcy, it involves ALL of your asserts and liabilities...not only those you want it to or chose.
All are given different classes or levels of priority. Some are even exempt - either as a debt to be excused, or an asset to be used. Again, you don't chose (because you would say include only what I owe and don't want, exempt or exclude everything else. Like thinking it would be right if I don't want the mortgage or the tax, but I do want the house.) And the creditors don't chose...can you guess why? (Although the most they would likely ask for is to get what you promised to pay or owe them).
If you have more assets than liabilities...everyone gets paid.
If you have less, than you lose everything and some people get paid less than they would have. Something like a vehicle loan or mortgage is a secured creditor....that is, their loan is secured by the property say the car. They get to take the car back for themselves, and if it isn't worth enough to pay off the loan, then the additional they become an unsecured general creditor for and get to get paid the additional with that group. That group may get only a small amount on the $ owed, as they are the last to receive any of your assets. I'm not sure what the added remarks are about...but I guess their cute so I'll let them remain. 2 additions: One C 11 is commonly (but not exclusively) for Corporations and similar to C13 which is used by individuals.

I'm not sure what the above intended, but it is incorrect to think there is any quality or quantity of debt required to file. Many people go BK on just credit card debt (probably the most common thing in fact), with no secured or priority debt. (In fact, generally a credit card co that gets a judgment and can secure it to a property of yours...probably won't have the BK clear it, as judgments aren't covered in BK).
But you should also note that BK doesn't just eliminate debts...or debts of your choice.
You go bankrupt, not the debt. It involves all of your assets and all of your debts. In basic form...all of your assets (again minus some few exempt things), are surrendered and liquidated with the money used to pay as much of the debts as possible (all debts are given a priority - first as secured like a car loan or unsecured which means against everything generally)...some are paid more, some less)...any resulting deficiency may be eliminated (wiped clean). You do not get to get rid of the debt AND keep what you may have gotten with it, (or invested/paid for elsewhere, instead of paying the amount owed).

Lev. 18:22; 20:13 are the central verses in the mosaic code which condem the practice of homosexuality. However, there are a great deal more verses on the topic as well as a lot of general debate.
