Cluster munitions or cluster bombs are air-dropped or ground-launched munitions that eject a number of smaller submunitions: a cluster of bomblets. The most common types are intended to kill enemy personnel and destroy vehicles. Submunition based weapons designed to destroy runways, electric power transmission lines, deliver chemical or biological weapons, or to scatter land mines have also been produced. Some submunition based weapons can disperse non-munition payloads, such as leaflets.
Because cluster bombs release many small unexploded bomblets over a wide area, they can kill or maim civilians long after a conflict has ended. Unexploded submunitions are very costly to locate and remove.
Cluster bombs are prohibited under the Convention on Cluster Munitions, which was adopted in Dublin in May 2008 and will open for signature in December 2008. The general rules of international humanitarian law aimed at protecting civilians also apply to cluster bombs as they do to all weapons.

I read your thread my friend but too weary to reply..Those are all very easy questions and the answers can be found in God;s Word..After reading some of the replies in the truth thread...I'm honestly wore out ..and plan to back off for a while..If we can't agree that God's Word is 100% true and applicable for today..than we are in sad shape. I feel sick.

Sorry to hear about your loss.
I wasn't trying to be cute. We've hashed the trinity topic to the ground, almost as bad as speaking in tongues topic. Why don't you list your questions one at a time? From you're post those questions appear toconfronting and opinionated. There are a lot of people that come in here and toss out those things in order to divide, and from the way your post appeared it seemed it was going that way. Sorry, we all took it the wrong way.
What is Christianty?
The belief in Jesus Christ, His Deity/Humanity. His virgin Birth, Life, death and resurrection and by entering into a personal relationship with God.
Acts 2:37-38 When the people heard this, they were cut to the hart and said to Peter and the other apostles, "Brothers", what shall we do? Peter replied, repent and be baptized every one you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the gift of the Holy Sprit.
Who was Jesus Christ? Was He a man, God or what?
Matthew 16:13-17
When Jesus came to the region of Caesare Philippi, he asked his disciples, "Who do people say the son of man is?" They replied, "Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, Jeremia or one of the prophets." But what about you? He asked who do you sa I am Simon Peter answered, You are the Christ, the son of the living God. Jesus replied, Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, this was not revealed to you by man, but by my father in heaven.
Isaia 9:6
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his sholders. And he will be called wonderful conselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Pease.
John 1:1
In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and the word was God. Together with John 1:14 the word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth." and John 1"18 "No one has ever seen God, but god the one and Only. Who is at the father's side, has made him know."
John 10:30
I and the father are one.
Colossians 1:15
"He (Jesus) is the image of the invisible God"
Colossians 2:9
"For in Christ all the fullness of the deity lives in bodily form"
I Timothy 3:16
Revelation 1:17-18
The Trinity
Is a Christian doctrine, stating that God exists as three person's stating that God exists as three person's but being one being. God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Sprit.
Matthew 3:16-17
Matthey 28:19
2 Corinthians 13:14
1 John 5:7-8
My view on one verses the three is this:
I believe God is God, Jesus is God in the flesh, and the Holy Sprit is God's sprit who was in Jesus that return to earth (us) after Jesus's going up to heaven.
Anything else I will have to plead the 5th, no ........ I mean
Isaiah 55:8-9
"For my thoughts" are not your thoughts, neither are your ways,My ways" declares the Lord. "As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts."
When we see the Lord we will know the true interpection of all the scrpitures.
Jesus born from a virgin?
Isaiah 7:14
Matthe 1:23
Luke 1:34
Did Christ rise from the dead, why?
John 19:30-31
Mark 16:1
Mark 16-6
1 Cor 15:6 (appeared to more than 500)
1 Cor 15-14 (in Vain and useless)
1 Corinthianss 15:20-21 (over come death) paid the ransom, wages of sin is death
Why?
Redemption - to be made right with God again - to once again be able to have a relationship with God.
What is Sin and Who decides?
Sin - the willful breaking of God's law
1 John 3:4-5
1 John 5:17
Gods law Exodus 20:3 -17 10 Commandments
Gods law New testament Matthew 22:37-40 the 2 Commandments
Penaly for breaking God's law
Wages of Sin: Romans 6:23 (death)
Unforgivenable sin - Luke 12:10
What can I do about Sin?
1 Psalm 139:23-24 (test your thoughts)
2 Psalm 51:2-4 (acknowledge your sin)
3 1 John 1:9 (confess our sins)
4 Psalm 51:7-12 (ask for forgiveness)
5 Psalm 32:1-6 (believe that God has indeed forgiven you and quit feeling guilty)
How do we know the bible is true?
Luke 1:3-4
Therefore, since I myself have carefully investigated everything from the geginning, it seemed good also to me to write an orderly account for you, most excellent Theophilus, so that you may know the certainty of the things you have been taught.
Christianity encourgages ones investigation. We should study the bible just as Luke did.
And we choose to believe it.
there are alot of other verses that could have been used to answer these questions,,these are a few I chose...now you can give it a try if you want, I was not trying too start any old battles,,,My view is, state what you believe let the other guy do the same,you won't change each others mind so leave it at that ....
