Great Aunt Martha seems so strict in her understanding of marriage. She refuses to attend a marriage between Bob and Linda. Bob has tattoos up to his neck and down his legs and has been in and out of jail a few times. Linda has been in 7 marriages so far. Great Aunt Martha loves her relative Linda, but she simply is exhausted trying to cater to every single new marriage that will work "this time."
In other words, there are some convictions in Great Aunt Martha which are not threatening the relative, but the relative and her friends may threaten the life of Great Aunt Martha.
As far as I am concerned, a marriage is NOT love, if the life of another person on planet earth is threatened!
Not attending or participating in certain events or showing support for certain relationships does NOT cause hatred to brew. In fact, people who practice various forms of "sexual impurity" could have variant forms of racism or other issues that brew.
Brotherly and sisterly love is VERY normal and the universe is created to ALLOW it, because JESUS himself practiced it. But to believe the line that ALL FORMS OF SEXUAL IMPURITY deserve equal chance at "stabbing" another person in a creative way, simply isn't necessary.
A disabled person who steals or hits another human being is just that, a "stabber." He still deserves EQUAL OPPORTUNITY as anyone else, but when he is a "stabber" he deserves JUSTICE before the law, not a better chance to harm or damage another human being.
Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
(Mat 5:17-19)
And there is "the other side" too......... that doesn't always have the errors......we have that figured out by now (the desensitized to the reality of pain in human suffering)......we think.......sez the farmer.....who knew that great great great great grandmother Noah was a midwife.

Now this is assuming that the family doesn't live in an area where "suicide terrorism" is a factor.
If you have a family member within the "immediate family" (that can include up to or including 2nd or even 3rd cousins) if you are related and were nurtured around them, your heart and mind could get affected by this issue. The closer, the more awareness of their life, and the more your heart could get affected. The further distance and relationship the less likely.
Some claim that "suicide" is a genetic thing, which it may be in some circumstances especially if the "weak person" is already weak in many different areas and conditions of life. This isn't always a TRUTHFUL factor as some even label certain heritages this way. Intelligence may or may not contribute to this factor. There ARE people of minority status who may carry the burdens of past generations called "generational post-traumatic-stress disorder"......genocide watch-list and people associated with some form of post-traumatic stress due to those factors.
There have been a couple of my immediate family that took their life, and I believe a 2nd or so cousin (whom I wouldn't recognize personally) who committed this act. The family members WERE on a prescription drug of some sort, so that may have been a factor at the time.
From a general perspective (without need for religious views) here are some things to consider doing. (Note: I have worked in the health care environment, but I have not worked with extreme mental health crisis except when I was given a bad drug in my teen years):
-Invite them
-Provide a "low stimulation" environment.
-Encourage screen free activities and engagement
-Encourage faith group participation.
-Go for a walk and say the creator accepts you as you are. Point out the abundance of things the creator provides (clean water, clean air, wild-edible foods, entertaining things in nature etc.)
-Encourage overcoming bondages
-Tell jokes
-Encourage them to connect, think about and pray for and with other immediate family members.
-Encourage them to think of positive memories. Childhood, young adult, adult life.
-Provide shelter for them if needed.
-Encourage good health choices.
-Take over some simple tasks for them.
-Encourage them to volunteer their time for something like and organization.
-Encourage them to use and consider "non-violent" or "negative emotion" entertainment. (no horror movies)
-Be OK without lots of holiday madness
-Hug them
-Say kind things to them
-If they are creative, encourage positive creative elements, not negative. For example, a child that comes out of war-torn Syria....encourage the child to draw pictures of refugee children gathering flowers on the hill-side instead of the awful image of seeing a "dead man" in the street.
-Say I'm sorry.
-Listen to their side of the story.
-Have them listen to nature sounds. (Birds, bugs, water etc)
-Discourage them from choosing "questionable" relationships or constantly changing relationship to relationship. Discourage strange sexuality practices that are in opposition to nature or physical body reality. (ie. Einstein married his first cousin.....but that didn't prevent his early death)
-If financial things are a factor (like a major loss, through a gamble or risky investment), consider if they are trusting in their wealth in MONEY or the wealth in knowledge around family members. Do they know a family member's favorite food? Do they know a family member's favorite song? Do they know a family member's favorite bird to watch? (If they don't know those "little things," then they will not be capable of handling the "big things" like large amounts of money and investment)
******************************
Now from a faith based perspective, family members should KNOW they cannot POSSIBLY encourage EVERY FAMILY member to have the same faith-based views of this world.
BUT, there can be similar views which prevent issues like suicide in the first place.
Faith views that could help eliminate the "lies" brewing in a family member's mind. There were "suicide" people in the ancient days (intelligent and not-intelligent), and there are still people with those conditions today.
-Jesus didn't come to condemn the world of its sin, but rather to die for it. We shouldn't condemn the family member of their sin.
-Jesus was the "lamb of God." If we are to "be like Jesus" then we should be totally trusting and always willing to listen to the shepherd's voice, instead of the voices of strangers. God's voice is kind-nature and gentle.
-Love covers a multitude of sin.
-Encourage them to not think to highly of themselves. Their mind and emotions didn't exist unless their heart was beating. So they should focus on keeping their heart clean and free from clutter.
-Various examples in the Sermon on the Mount. It is better to do for others than to take from others.
-Encourage them to pray for others, starting with the family and friends closest to them.
-Encourage them to pray through the bible. Use the psalms and proverbs to come up with ideas.
-Believe that we are weak and he is strong.
-Trust in him to help overcome sin
-Regularly read and meditate on bible. Try parashah reading method and so forth.
-Be merciful.
-Consider that suicide is a form of "self-murder."
-Eliminate hatred within the heart. It could come from anything, like hatred based on race, relationship or other factors.
Religious choices could CAUSe or PREVENT suicide:
Sometimes the "thinking" is not in alignment with "law" so the factors of evil play a role in the conditions of evil that brew in the heart.

Here is a few videos that illustrate the reality of what it is like to have these "Quirks" in family life, but yet you care for them......immediate family are usually those closest to you in heritage, and you also grew up around them..... Some families will absolutely NOT tell you what went on in "domestic life" as there are various secrets that need not be shared in the streets, and differ even among the different households.....due to internal damages in the heart.
These things that occur to humanity are partly related to stories of others that have endured "suffering" in various ways.....some severely, some just misunderstanding things....as they are.....these funny and strange questions one can find on the internet.......(I know how midwifery works quite well....ahem)
Realization that a better identity is need.....as the pain is felt in various ways and from various situations....
Victory in HIM......

Once upon a time, there was a Christian fundamentalist group/couple that praised their work of parenting. They were so insistent that THEY were THE ultimate resource when it comes to parenting and understanding of our universe that any digression and discussion about the "cousin marriages" of the bible would be forbidden topic. Unfortunately, many people continue to follow THEIR lead, instead of CHRIST.
Essentially the rule of their book is this. Take one bible verse and make a book out of it. It is SO basic, to do that. I can say it is NOT easy to create a book, but it is SO basic to create a book out of a bible verse.
THAT one bible verse is THE foundation of their ENTIRE building block of raising this particular child, assuming that THE BIOLOGICAL parents of the child, never dies in a car-accident or gets persecuted or gets "the ticket" to prison, or never ends up with cancer at the child's vital growing up years or any other number of bad things that happen to parents.
I have NOTHING against general "fundamental Christian values." In fact, I think it is MORE enlightening and much less of a burdensome road to listen to "fundamentalist teachings" The bible verse "Mat_11:30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." has a LOT of meaning to the TRULY Christian bible-thumping fundamentalist. Unfortunately, among the crowds of fundies, there are the ones who make "themselves" look like "the ultimate" resources for anything, from parenting to dealing with the "homosexual crowds" to dealing with "the druggies" and so forth.
I do agree with using a little rod of correction on a child, especially under the age of three and if used in a non-abusive way. IT DOES WORK folks. Unfortunately, a child is made of more than just a "rear end to spank".......They simply don't want to emphasize this among the "No Greater Joy" ministry. A child is made of a mind, heart, hands, and feelings of love for family, friends and others. They simply NEVER mention that grandparents, aunts, uncles and others will be involved with the child's life, EVEN if the parents have their weakness. In some cases, it may be involvement with family up to 2nd cousins or more range.
When a person gets into the 2nd cousin range of thinking and that not all cousins are "raised alike," one would realize that the cousin that was raised under the roof of lawyer parents and then ended up at the ivy league, has a TOTALLY different outlook on life than the cousins that were raised on picking up sticks and throwing together random cob-brick ovens day in and day out. Essentially, both children raised, even though cousins, were raised with differing conditions and values. Both were raised in -THE WILDERNESS- so to speak. One was raised to "read books" and "no TV" but still went to a small school. The other was raised to "play piano" and "feed 20 calves" per night.
All in all, the discipline natures are different among children, raised in the wilderness, so to speak. One who is raised to be disciplined to "read books" will have a different nature than the one who is raised to "feed calves" and "play a piano." Essentially, the discipline aspect is THERE for both children, with the same heritage, though differently, but one succeeds in different ways than the other. Was a rod of correction used on either of the family? I don't know. May-be-it-was and may-be-it-wasn't. Yes, I have heard of people who went to the "ivy league" who WERE actually SPANKED by their parents! Gasp! Discipline was available and encouraged.
Every loving parent who actually WANT their child to succeed, MUST have a desire to DISCIPLINE! Yes. BUT that DOESN'T always involve a literal "rear end" madness at all times and places! That is what the book fails to lead us to.
The path that the child is led to, should include something along the lines of
A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
(Psa 23:1-6)
These particular verses are NEVER, mentioned in the "No Greater Joy" ....."To Train up a Child" story book. Not once.
They have OTHER qualities, in their book that are fine, like explaining why it is better for the child to pick up a hoe and help in a garden than to watch a dumb TV show. Which I have not read the book for quite some time, but the essential element of PSALM 23, is eliminated like it is completely useless.....the plague of "Christianity" they say?
Sometimes a child's DNA heritage will not be "strong and fit." Sometimes a parent's DNA heritage will be carrying the burdens of other relatives and inlaws of past generations. Like Genocide problems in humanity.
They never really mention those issues as a part of the problem with parenting a child's heart.
Instead, they assume that EVERY problem in parenting is linked to lack of using a "rod." Which simply doesn't make sense, biblical, morally and ethically. A rod is good.....but think more along the lines of discipline towards eliminating "hatred" in the heart.
Yes, a person should support the general "fundamental Christian element," but remember that the LORD is the GOOD SHEPHERD, for the child's heart, mind and strength. NOT just the parents. Mary and Joseph couldn't correct a young under-age-two child when there was a persecutor on the horizon that wanted to remove "the king" from Israel. Think about that. Re-read the book of Esther.....Esther HAD to trust in her redemption from on-high.....not upon
Furthermore, there may be an element of stereo-typing within the writing of "No Greater Joy" ministry, and assuming things about people from different cultures that simply are not true. They go on auto-pilot and assume that the only Christians who ever suffered in this world were ......ahem.....white.
Re-read the book of Esther and point out in the bible WHERE this event took place and it is located, to this day...........Ummmmmmmm it doesn't take a lot of brains to figure it out but some who grew up around "arab cousins" would know better than to assume things about others. So......ummmmm what happened in WW1 again???? ummmmm.
ummmm there are NUMEROUS other examples of "brown skin" people on the internet.....by the way......and there is the alternative of ACTUALLY reading ALL of the Psalms and Proverbs....instead of just hanging on one verse in child-raising.....that HELPS a lot in building and understanding GOOD CHARACTER.
Really, the "no greater joy" ministry is trying to make it look like they can control EVERY heart and mind......from the middle east and beyond.......EVERY move in every family......EVERY relative....... That to me is a danger to elements of the scripture and its purpose in the HEART.

Humph. To put it lightly. Christianity is NOT meant to be antisemitic. Not even a little amount is aloud. Unfortunately people misinterpret the conditions of our universe and the conditions of nature, the nature of family life, the nature of the human body, to produce hatred within the heart.
Philosophically, a man whom existed around the time of Abraham, named Job has one of the greatest idea, known to man kind: "Job_38:31 Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion?"
So can man, create the heavens itself? The answer is simple. NO!
Can man create a "Jewish person" while they are developing in the womb? NO
Can a two year old child decide whom his relatives would be? His aunts and his uncles? His cousins? His siblings? His grandparents?
NO.
The same is true of people who are Jewish. When they were in their mother's womb, they didn't get to decide if their mother would have that heritage or not. They just didn't.
What about location of birth on planet earth? What about the language the child will speak? Did the child get to choose those things? Once again. NO.
If a person cannot choose who they are, what they are, where they grew up biologically and socially (Jesus didn't get to choose those things that happened in his life early on), then the same is true of every Jewish person on planet earth.
Eventually a child reaches the age of 12. By the age of 12, children have the possibility of doing almost "adult-like things." In some countries that have severe poverty, children at the age of 12 become parents! Is it an evil thing to be a 12-year-old-child? I wouldn't think so. Even a CHILD is known by his character where he has been and what he will grow into as he becomes an adult. "Pro_20:11 Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right."
By the age of 12, a mere child can read the entire scripture, if he has been instructed on how to read! Yes, the Holy Bible is written in the level of 5th grade understanding!
By Jewish traditions, the mere children are READING and COMPREHENDING that they are morally obligated to do "good things" for others from God's law by the age of 12! Do all children understand how to always do right by this age and continue well into full adult-hood. Not, always, as the reading skills have not fully been ingrained.
Here is where the tricky thing of antisemitism brews. Some Jewish people, or even people in the land of Israel, are illiterate, they were illiterate from their youth, or they simply feel that they need to only trust in their family-life. Does illiteracy make a person a bad person? No. Some people will NEVER be fully capable of "ivy league lawyer level" reading skills. Either God made them that way or their circumstances were in such a way that this was going to happen in this person's life.
From God's laws, comes the knowledge of good vs. evil, towards men, women and children, within Israel or of Jewish heritage and outside of Israel and Jewish heritage.
Jesus knew the laws of the bible (the first five books). He formulated and meditated upon it regularly so he could know how to fully worship the heavenly father! (Psalm 119).
A general Jewish person will know the first five books of the bible. Some will even go so far as to become almost "christ-like" in their nature, without even fully knowing the NEW TESTAMENT!
Moving further, even if a person doesn't know the fullness of his redemptive glory, a general Jewish person WILL have the desire to LOVE in their heart. With the general desire to LOVE, the sins are covered: 1Pe_4:8 And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins. Charity is often described within the law!
So when a person says that another human being on earth is a problem because they go to church on "sabbath" or they do Jewish things, that person is saying that it is ok to be "above" the law and it is ok to "hate." When the reality is that LOVE is the true binding force to redeem humanity from SIN.
Having a Christmas tree, having a cross, having a certain statement towards a Jewish person to get them to become "christian" DOESN'T help him or her feel redeemed from his sin. ONLY LOVE can help them find the light. Not the "impure sexuality" stuff, but PURE HOLY kind of love.
So think about "family life" once again. We were all children at one time. We couldn't choose our family. Within a "gentile family" there could be SOMEONE within the immediate family that HAS JEWISH heritage! Yes. Should a pure and good family suddenly decide to eliminate that family member simply because of their heritage? NO.
Now, look at the scripture and what it says with proper exegesis. Some people were -BAD- among the Jewish heritage people. They simply DIDN'T want to follow JESUS. They kept doing their own -BAD- thing. Does this mean that ALL the Jewish people were doing these particular -BAD THINGS- NO.
John the Baptist. Was he doing a -BAD THING-? No. In fact he was a family member of Jesus (Elizabeth was Mary's cousin) and warned other Jewish people that were -BAD- to repent.
Mary and Joseph, the parents of Jesus. Were they doing a -BAD THING-? No, they were doing what they could on their own human strength, however small it was. Raising Jesus to become a man even in poverty!
The shepherds? Supposedly these were special shepherds who were taking care of the sheep that would be used in ritual sacrifice. Were they doing a -BAD THING-? No. They were doing what they were called to do and the angels KNEW that they were doing those things. In fact, the Shepherds were STILL performing Jewish rituals by general understanding of Jewish culture and traditions. So that indicates that Jewish conditions from the old-testament were necessary.
Did Jesus get to choose these things in his early stages of life. No.
Now, here is where the plot thickens in JEsus' life. There were BAD JEWS on the Horizon. The wise men were WARNED......NOT to go back to King Herod in a dream. Do you think that people STILL have the ability to discern character of men, via. dreams even today? Yes. In fact, more so today than at any other time in history. Law-lessness led to the evils that brewed in the heart. They were murderers of their OWN people and nationality! YIKES. This isn't even something new for today@! Columbine shooting is one such example of this type of "law-lessness" behavior! Obviously the man who comits such crimes is not "born again." He doesn't consider his "child-hood." He doesn't consider that he himself was once a developing child in his mother's womb. He doesn't consider that the creator God is the one who gave him his "hair-color" "eye-shape" "nose shape" and other such matters, right within his mother's womb. Same with all the other people around him.
These bad-Jewish people, didn't have any KNOWLEDGE or ability to understand "the sermon on the mount." Access was denied when it came to understanding what it means to be "born again." Return to your child hood, especially considering who raised you, who designed you, who gave you the relatives that you have, to this day?
But then later on in the story, some Jewish people followed Jesus, and some did not follow Jesus. At the end of Jesus life, a mob said to release Barabus, the thief.....the law-less man.......was set free. The mob didn't want him. The Jewish mob, of Jewish heritage. But JESUS, took his place. The place of a vile, wicked man.
He took the place of the vile, wicked, lawless, mob. The mob, that was not around him. They laughed at him when he spoke. They laughed at him when he wept. They laughed at him when he healed. They didn't like him. Their heart was hard. But he, YESHUA, took .......their ........place. He was a fully grown man! He wasn't still 2 years old and couldn't decide this and that. But fully GROWN!
The disciples followed him, even after his death and resurrection. They too were Jewish and some were closely related to Jesus. They perished from this earth. Their life was cut short.........VIOLENTLY.......because of the hatred that brews in the hearts of men on this earth. They didn't die the old-age natural death, like Simeon and Anna. But yet Simeon said: Luk 2:34-5 And Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother, Behold, this child is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel; and for a sign which shall be spoken against; (Yea, a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also,) that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed. " Simeon KNEW, in his old age that this was going to be the fate of HUMANITY. The HEART would be revealed!
It had NOTHING to do with Heritage. Yet, it had EVERYTHING to do with Heritage and upbringing.
If a child is separated unnaturally from a parent, the parent feels pain. In some cases parents have DIED trying to protect their children. Jewish parents have DIED, protecting their own children from evils that brew in the hearts of men. Maybe some parents did not even KNOW they were Jewish when they died! Maybe they did know! DNA tests? Some people know whom they are related to, and some people do not. Adoptions occur, to this day.
If someone says to you, that antisemitism or manipulating whom a person is related to or their origins, consider wisely, because it pierces in the HEART.
God himself designed these things. Not man. To this day. In fact, the people in YOUR community can and do come from the -LEVANT- to this day......
Even teenagers know there is something "brewing" in the heart of man that is not "legit".........from a secular-every-day-life point of view..... Charlie.......Puth......couldn't choose his parents.....But yet he sings.... To save the live of "Charlie" is to consider what is going on in the heart.....based on conditions of the law....that includes conditions of "sexual impurity" that could ruin.......his life.....
Is that love "real" or just for "show".....that is the key thing.....which is foundation
Ray Comfort reveals that leaning towards lawlessness = the same horrors of antisemitism of the past, denying family conditions in each family upbringing.......denying history of the past........is a problem, to this day. Elizabeth "chose life" first.......Mary also "chose life"......in accordance with the conditions of the law. the womb didn't have any issues which would lead to DNR conditions.......maybe John and Jesus hung out with each other from time to time..... Furthermore, if a Jewish woman has 5 children and someone says "she should choose death" for her children...... I digress, this invisible force of evil that brews in some people.
Other types of "antisemitism" that exists.....the idea that it now somehow ok to commit lawless sexual impurity acts.......within a "Jewish" or middle eastern family......These things are promoted, encouraged and even EMBRACED in certain churches.....
In summary, if a man or woman doesn't like the "human heart beat" from the time of conception, until that person's last breath, the person is going to face God on judgment day......Jewish or Non-Jewish or RELATED to Jewish people and others connected to the BIBLE. (via.....Noah and beyond).
Really the BEST way to get rid of it is to LIVE among the people and their CULTURE. Stop assuming the role of "control" of the life style and ways of doing things, but rather emphasize the need for redemption and understanding in a two way street....even from a secular perspective. Being too religious can put a group of people into a false category of redemption.
To put it lightly, we are "by nature" dismantled in our thinking without JESUS as our only hope......the bible is complete.....

This is a topic that is not AGAINST people who are practicing medicine in general, or who simply cannot CHOOSE their health care worker that takes care of them.
Rather this is a topic to consider personal FAITH beliefs as well as CONVICTIONS on how to reach the lost as a BIBLE BELIEVING CHRISTIAN, especially if they are in favor of "women's rights" and eliminating "anti-antisemitism/anti-Israel" mentality.
On my facebook feed, a man from Pakistan, whom I fully believe is a GOOD man, and not interested in terrorizing ANYONE, had his arms, legs, hands and other things broken. He was able to type on the computer to his friends. What was his offence? He supports Israel and the JEWS. That is what he LOVES to support. He also loves America.
Unfortunately, someone would look at that man in Pakistan and say he is a "liar" and "hates muslims" because he is supporting something they don't want a man to support, based on their religious beliefs.
If a person has the faith conviction that it is not the best to rely upon the "professional healthcare system" regularly, but rather to rely upon super natural or basic-needs from home, then that is a personal conviction, so long as the most vulnerable are getting the help they need. The patient and family have the right to refuse services at any time, so long as the most vulnerable will not be in an abusive situation. Ethically speaking, some healthcare conditions have not been a socially positive experience for certain individuals.
So if a person, who is in a stable mind walks into a clinic in need and a woman who wears a "head scarf" comes to work wearing the scarf, does the patient have the right to refuse using her service if the patient simply doesn't like "muslims" or the "religious" conditions? The answer is simply this, the patient comes first so long as it is NOT invasive on the LIFE of the healthcare employee. Kinda like going to a business, if you DO NOT like the service there, then tell someone to get another worker, but DO NOT threaten the worker's life.
This video explains the way the people live in their life-style based on their faith. I do NOT believe the Muslim religion is the same as the Judeo/Christian faith. http://www.oneforisrael.com reveals this principle and other resources like Sid Roth....
A person may lead the muslim healthcare worker to topics like www.islam-watch.org, information about the conditions of the faith in various books like -The People vs. Muhammad-, topics about Nabeel Qureshi, and other types of resources that point out the flaws and flukes in the faith. Many people from the middle east and beyond ARE looking for a hope that is beyond this world, so they DO turn to religious things for various reasons, even health care employees. If the healthcare worker is HARSH, DISCRIMINATING or BITTER towards, you the patient, then you may ask to see a different worker, if it is severe enough, ask that a report be filed against the health care worker. In VERY SEVERE cases, like absolute negligence, rapes or unnecessary handling, inappropriate conversations, report the worker immediately. The patient comes first when it comes to choice in health-care worker, especially if there is only a certain number of doctors and necessary life saving procedure.
Is it ever right to question a person's faith if the person appears "middle eastern"? A person, in general, from the middle-east can have ANY NUMBER of different faith backgrounds and beliefs about how to treat other people, so it is never safe to assume ALL people from the MIDDLE EAST are Muslim. Some "brown skin" men from the middle east are even JEWISH or hold some sort of JEWISH heritage. Like Avi Yimini. Clearly Avi Yimini is concerned about JUSTICE for the "unloved women" of this world:
All in all, a Muslim healthcare worker MAY even be NICER than a "westerner healthcare worker" who has never encouraged or accepted people of faith. Perhaps that special western worker supports "abortions," (remember MARY the unwed mother and ELIZABETH chose life under difficult circumstances) "euthanasia," "disengages from disabled children," regularly "gossips," "mixed up relationships," has "racist tendencies" and so forth. The patient would know the character of the worker that is acceptable.
In summary, consider that the Muslim healthcare worker, or a person of ANY religious faith, WILL possibly use part of the income to FUND a certain "faith group" that they believe in. If you as a patient, are able to ASK HOW they will use their money from the job, and do research on this "charity," you may decide as a patient if this particular charity is SAFE.
It really isn't necessary to ATTACK a healthcare worker based on the "neutral elements" that are practiced by Muslims. Anything like polygyny, cousin marriage, head scarf wearing, not eating pork, fasting and so forth. Some Christians have found that it IS possible to practice Christian faith, or just generally live among people, in Muslim majority countries, and may even be improving daily as research is developed and hearts are changed. There are even some areas where it is SAFER to be a christian living among Muslims than to live among the "western culture" due to the reality that Jesus was a "middle-eastern" man, and doesn't encourage such wild-living, particularly sexual impurity living. (unfortunately Muslim and Christians have ignored the "rape gangs" among humanity from time to time and is still a problem.)
Be WISE, don't be FOOLISH when it comes to the health care worker in general. If something doesn't seem right, or you feel that your situation is being violated, do not be afraid to flee the situation or seek other options.
All in All DEPEND upon HIM......because he cares for you....
Lack of salvation is what actually "sucks".....in this life......it isn't the conditions of religious value.....

Ok. So can Jewish people behave exactly like the behavior of "Hitler"? or commit acts of terrorism?
The answer is simple. Some people don't know they have Jewish heritage. Other people know they have Jewish heritage, but they do not know how to be a "good Jew."
-Columbine shooting
-Extreme homophobia
-Terrorists who grew up among a muslim type of religious system and didn't know or partially knew they had Jewish heritage.
-Terrorists who grew up in extreme socialist/communist system who forbid "religious freedom" or "free speech"
-Slavery, especially towards bringing slaves to America (many Jewish people have lighter tone skin tones).
-Racial mis-interpretation, such as misunderstanding of indigenous cultures and people groups. Jewish people have a tendency to understand the "Greeks and Romans" a little better than the "indigenous people" of America from time to time.
-antifa
-self-hatred by suicide
-Christian mockery or dislike if they are not following the "New Testament" as part of their faith. Messianic believers overcame those tendencies by his power. Born again believers can come from any sort of Christian faith group. (Note: some Christians who call themselves -born again- have mocked Jewish people too or had no respect for them, which makes me very sad, as this does not help them understand things.)
I do NOT consider "self-defense" to be a type of "extremism" or "terrorism."
I DO believe that Jews who suffered in the Holocaust suffered just as much as any other minority group that was not white, as there were "race based" false understandings in those days.
I DO believe that the conditions of "good vs. bad" among the general Jewish population is about equivalent to any other nationality and heritage, with perhaps a little misunderstanding of certain elements of "human nature" or "animal nature" from time to time. However, there could be significantly higher amounts of these tendencies if the ideologies or faith beliefs practiced by the particular person are in an environment that would produce such extremes. Remember: Judas was wicked, the crowd that persecuted him was lost, Jesus did NOT hang around or become friends with EVERY SINGLE Jewish person in Israel at the time of his life on earth, but he DID love his disciples and certain individuals among the Jews and asks people to do the same.

Jesus was once a Nazarene.......he was born in Bethlehem in a poor-people kind of birth.....in a manger. We really don't know if Joseph had other wives besides Mary as the information isn't given in the bible.
These are the beginnings of Jesus' life on earth.
My beginnings were in a sort of poverty, in a way, but not really, when I recognize the after-shock of "white supremacy" and the terror placed on the shoulders of various minorities in this country and elsewhere around the world.
So before the age of 5 these things were true about me, and I couldn't decide whom would give me food, shelter and clothing.....
1. I was held in the arms of parents and they knew how to keep me safe at that time and for those purposes.
2. They decided that I would be ok to be held in the arms of various relatives. Among those relatives included Anabaptist (which do practice same-sex holy kiss sometimes, but remain married to one spouse of opposite sex in their faith), my Norwegian grandmother (whom my mother says she watched a lot of soap operas, but I don't remember that....I just remember cooking classes), Middle-East relatives.....yeup I was in one high chair and my cousin was in another, we got along just fine, I didn't need to hold up a sign that said "rape-u-gee" or "stop terrorists" because all the degrees, experienced in the Ivy League and knowledge they obtained were put to good use in favor of making human conditions better. We survived the conditions of "maternity" as I learned later that my grandmother had to go through some pregnancy problems. I was raised around a grandparent and relative who raised a lot of "pork" and I was also made aware later in life that I was around some Jewish people here and there as I lived near a community (oh my the contradictions of what to eat). I remember going to this community off and on even before the age of 5. Within that time, I was also around Christmas trees (idolatry) and I was also around people who sang "Jesus Loves Me This I Know" (Anabaptists) and didn't make a big deal out of Christmas Trees, but made a big deal out of study of the KJV Holy Bible. Head scarf wearing and modest clothing is permitted among the Anabaptists by the way. I agree with their beliefs in pray-more, worry less and arguments with your neighbor are in vain.
3. I can't remember everything, but I do remember I was "spanked." I don't remember what the problems were that I was causing. I just know that was the go-to method of discipline, which my parents knew how to use, so that is what they chose.
4. I grew up around clean well-water. There were no racial discrimination problems against my parents. My Dad is definitely 100% Scandinavian. If the water was dirty, then I would probably have a problem in my nerves today, but I do not have major issues today. Because of the conditions of # 2, I recognize the effect and after shock of this thing called "white supremacy." Especially now, since I have been through the college life and I have also married a man who isn't 100% white. God actually called me to REMAIN in this marriage (by dream/vision) so no man or woman on the planet has a "Right" to break apart this bond, despite the unusual marriage choices and conditions of his ancestry.
5. Oh, yeah..... was born 9-11.....September 11.....but I don't consider the "gregorian calendar" to be the ultimate calendar today, after studying the history of "calendar origins" Astronomy/Calendar study on the side. This may have somewhat of an impact on my life, as I know my doctor was a heavy duty runner and not so interested in using his mind to blow up and destroy other people or buildings.......ahem.
Proverbs 22:28 "Pro 22:28 Remove not the ancient landmark, which thy fathers have set. " In other words the "fathers" that came before us knew the safe places for us to dwell, so that we could learn to dwell in HIS PRESENCE.......EVEN if the fathers were not perfect.
So why is Charlie used as an example video?
Answer: because someone within my children's extended family (my children don't get to choose their cousins and relatives) has (maybe within 1-5% range??) the Jewish heritage. Charlie could NOT choose his family or his heritage. The bible people couldn't choose their family. But today, we know we can make various choices about how to handle life situations. If I remember the history of WW1 and WW2 and even Roe Vs. Wade, as I was taught, I KNOW I probably wouldn't have had the "0-5 year old" life that I had. There wouldn't have been a high-chair event in my life.
Why in the world do I study and have curiosity about the things that I have, to this day? Why do I have the concerns about the conditions of humanity that I have, to this day? Why do I go through this thing called "study the bible" and eliminate so much hatred in the heart, to this day? Answer: It can and does have to do with the events of my life, when I was 0-5 years old. Even the events from 0-20 has an impact, but a "school system" in and of itself doesn't remain with a child's heart for the majority of their lifetime. An 80 year old man spends 85% of his life in a domestic environment, if he goes through 12 years of education! It could even be 95% if the child is delaying his education or adjusting it to meet only a certain level, based on oppression or other community conditions. Instead, it is the "high-chair cousins" that remain, the domestic life remains. The domestic life is a key feature that explains why a young DNA oak tree turns into a grown DNA oak tree that is twisted and turned in this or that shape on the hillside.
What events did Charlie go through in his life?
Well, he has a scar on his face to explain what he went through! He explains his life events off and on in various places to various sources, but has a sense of the need for famous people privacy too. (My husband works in a nursing home and sees these people too........they are human too....they eventually return to the domestic life)
If a scar on the face is visible, just think of the scars on people's hearts! Especially if the child went through major war or trauma or parents and relatives with major moral issues.
Deu_13:4 Ye shall walk after the LORD your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him. (MANY of the commandments involve issues in the domestic environments where FAMILY grows!)
Jesus' domestic life, was not the same as my domestic life, but there are similar features to which much of humanity can relate whether rich or poor. He lived a public life for only about 3 1/2 years when he did ministry. Even under that pressure of oppression, he was still cut-off. Essentially, he was cut-short of his life in the public eye.
I do not share the same story as you, but I am sure you have some features that impact you and your family, to this day, no matter your heritage. Study of humanity heritages.Cousin marriage people do exist, as chenk is a descendant of such. Your neighbor does NOT share the same story as you, and these features have an impact on them and their choices as well. ALL people WANT Justice and Mercy......just as much as they need CLEAN WATER.
My children have cousins of different skin tone.....but I would consider them as "equals" in many different ways.
Tweets from the "domestic world"......(has some foul words....which I did NOT grow up with foul words)
I don't follow "catholocism" but I do have family history with it....... that does NOT mean I want to tell certain family members what they should and shouldn't do as far as faith is concerned, I do believe there were extremists and racists within the particular religion, but rather I AM willing to listen to concerns and things of that sort in this particular faith. Many people come out of many different religious an faith backgrounds.

I don't want to describe too many details about the domestic environment I grew up within among my extended family, but I do want to say that it is not right to call a "brown skin" or middle eastern man a "rape-u-gee," "male chauvinist," "nasty polygamist," or "in breeders (cousin marriages)," and also the opposite, to call a family or individual with "brown skin" in the family an "islamophobic" if they feel certain elements or conditions practiced by extremists are deemed threatening to the family or other sorts of things. Doing so, is a way to purposefully try to dismantle his (and his extended family) conditions and the conditions that the creator gave to that man (masculine characteristics). In essence, it is a sort of -false accusation- or -defamation of character-.... Humanity constantly thinks it is stronger than what it truly happens to be, but our hearts can only handle a certain amount. We can only truly trust in -BROTHERLY LOVE- as a guiding force in a world of constant confusion.....and error......and hatred.....
Behind every person is a "family" that supports him or her in trials and errors....... Some people are stronger and more talented than others........other family is more humble and wise than others....... it all depends on knowledge, circumstance and willingness to go through the BATTLE......many of us face, even if it is invisible.
Outward appearance of the individual may not be the "whole story" of the person. Anyone can simply sing in a choir. Family history has stories of suffering, persecution, hatred, scorn, elimination, rejection..........some people who are alive TODAY have family that went through the Holocaust! (My husband has worked with residents in nursing home who went through a concentration camp........of which I know I would never survive such conditions.....) Yeshua.....Jesus is STILL a Jewish (middle eastern) man up in heavenly realms..... think beyond -this earth- when it comes to trials and sufferings.
We have one hope and it is the saviour who redeems and heals us.
Psa_18:27 For thou wilt save the afflicted people; but wilt bring down high looks.

I have not personally studied a lot of sociology, but I can say by experience, by observations, and by reading about different conditions, these cases are more than likely true among most of humanity.
A person is a person at conception. Maybe that person is not liked by the woman or social system because of some possible "appearance" or condition that the person-to-develop may have. (ie. the condition of being a minority isn't liked by someone)
A child in the womb at 20 weeks to one week of age after birth.....
A disabled child in the womb (mother may be under pressure to do damage to the unborn child)
Children with disability
The poor elderly, especially widows, particuarly the homeless
The poor elderly, especially widows, in bad environmental conditions
The poor elderly, especially widows, in poor social conditions (no church group, no friends, no hobby, no family etc)
The poor disabled (temporary pregnancy conditions for some pregnancies)
The poor single parent family with children under the age of 5
Persons in domestic violence conditions, especially if lack of resources and people to help are available
People who speak up for others or differing beliefs in dangerous conditions (like Martin Luther King Jr.)
*Minority/immigrant/religiously different/different political opinion conditions added on to any of the above....even worse in severe oppression or persecution areas.
*Homeless conditions adds to the strain
