I am a Christian. <><
I am Daniel .
Hebrew: דָּנִיֵּאל
The name "Daniel" means "Judged by El (God)" or "God is my Judge".
"Dan" = judge and "i" = a suffix conjugating the verb such that its
action applies to the speaker.
Daniel 9 "O Lord, the great and awesome God, who keeps his covenant of love with all who love him and obey his commands...We do not make requests of you because we are righteous, but because of your great mercy. 19 O Lord, listen! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, hear and act! For your sake, O my God, do not delay, because your city and your people bear your Name." -- Daniel
Daniel 10 "Do not be afraid, Daniel. Since the first day that you set your mind to gain understanding and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have come in response to them." "Do not be afraid, O man highly esteemed," he said. "Peace! Be strong now; be strong." -- angel Gabriel
Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs of Israel
My name is not of this Tribe of Dan, but it is an illuminating historical tangent, excerpted from Wikipedia , bridging the Old Testament to the New, even as Daniel does.
"The Testament of Dan treats the topics of anger and lying. Dan then goes on to explain how the spirit of anger works. It covers your eyes, and distorts your vision. Through this you do not recognise people for who they really are. Furthermore, it disturbs the mind so that the Lord departs from it and Beliar (Belial; demon of self, flesh, and lie) inhabits it.
"...through a prediction about the future...Dan talks of a savior arising from Levi and Judah that will set the souls free from Beliar. Again, Dan reminds his sons to stay near to God, and also to his interceding angel, and the saviour of the Gentiles. If they listen to Dan's warning, then his children will will be received by the saviour of the Gentiles and be saved.
"The testament ends...that the prophecies of Dan did indeed happen."
I am
Mario .
I like to jump around, and would
lead a fairly serene and aimless
existence if it weren't for my
friends always getting into
trouble. I love to help out, even
when it puts me at risk. I seem to
make friends with people who just
can't stay out of trouble.

"If ye love wealth better than
liberty, the
tranquility of servitude than the animating
contest of freedom, go from us in peace. we ask
not your counsels or arms." -- Samuel Adams

"Find out just what people will quietly submit to, and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed on them, and these will continue till they are resisted ... The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress." -- Frederick Douglass , African-American slave, and, later, abolitionist, writer and activist.
"Beware the everyday brutality of the averted gaze." -- author yet unknown
"Your name of Daniel has created a
most expressive nature, idealistic and
inspirational, driven with a strong inner
urge to be of service in some way that
would uplift humanity as a whole. However,
there is a tendency to assume too heavy a
burden of responsibility for others, which
leads to worry and undue concern. People
with problems are drawn to you as they
recognize you as one who has understanding
and gives not only sympathy and comfort but
provides also some constructive advice or
assistance. You have a generous quality to
your nature, but you must guard carefully
against giving more than you receive or you
will find yourself doing without because
you have helped someone else. You love
people, family, home, and friends and try
to be a parent to the whole human race.
While you have generally stable conditions
in your personal life, you may experience
some problems in business affairs through a
tendency to be scattering and inattentive
to details. Any health problems would show
as tension in the nervous system brought on
by worry."
