What Is Blood Quantum 11/32

I have 3/32 degrees of American Indian blood.?

Assuming that your father's father's mother was 100% American Indian and there was no other American Indian in your bloodline:

Your grandfather would be 1/2 American Indian.
Your father would be 1/4 American Indian.
You would be 1/8 American Indian.

This is 4/32 which is slightly more than 3/32.

For it to be 3/32, your grandfather's mother must have been 3/4 American Indian (say her mother was 1/2 and her father was full).

What are some strong arguments both for believing in the Bible and questioning/not believing in it?

For believing in the Bible, it is difficult to point to just one. But, I have an anchor that I go back to as a reminder. So, perhaps that is the strongest reason for believing.My strongest reason is found in the book of Job. As we are introduced to Job we see that he has 7,000 sheep, 3,000 camels, 1,000 cattle, 500 donkeys and 10 children (7 sins and 3 daughters). Job 1:2,3. The book of Job then recounts how Satan is roving about the earth, apparently claiming that no one on earth is being faithful to God and that he can turn those who appear to be. Job Chapter 2 and 3. (Note Job 2:4 indicates an attack on all mankind not just Job)Satan took the aforementioned things Job possessed and even tried to make it look like God did it. He then inflicted Job with a disease and had Job's wife try to get Job to curse God and die. But, Job remained faithful and did not sin with his lips.For his remaining faithful, God not only restored Job to the condition he was in before Satan attacked him but he gave Job double of everything Satan took. He received 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 1,000 pairs of camels (which is 2,000), 1,000 female donkeys and 10 children (7 sons and 3 daughters). Job 42:12-13.Initially, it seems that Job did not get double his children back but only received the same number of children that he lost. However, the Hebrew Scriptures (Old Testament) and The Christian Greek Scriptures (New Testament) assure that there will be a resurrection for many right here on earth. John 11:23-27; Psalm 37:9-11; Isaiah 26:19. When that resurrection takes place the livestock will not be there but Job's 20 children will be.Had this account of Job been written solely by a man he would have given Job 20 children with the double livestock count. At a minimum, the writer would have explained why only 10 were given rather than 20. Yet, no where in the Bible does it expressly draw attention to the fact that Job only received 10 children when he was restored. This tie-ins is only realized when the Bible as looked at as a whole. 40 men acted as secretaries ovee a 1,600 year period penning the thoughts of one author, God.

I know what all of those words mean, but that sentence makes no sense.

Is the Holy Trinity a paradox and therefore impossible to understand logically?

In the Bible  there are a couple of verses that when taken alone would make one think that Jesus and God almighty are one and the same.But there are hundreds of verses that make it apparent that they are separate individuals. And the couple that appear otherwise make sense when viewed in context. For instance at john 10:30 Jesus says 'I and the father are one' So by itself this verse supports the trinity. But at john 17:21 He goes further and says that he wants his disciples to be one as he and his father is one. Obviously he was not saying that his disciples should all be one person, just as he was not saying that he and God were one person.Jesus says the father is greater than him. He prays to his father. He says he was not sent to do his own will but his father's.  He says the father is his God.After he went back to heaven Jesus is said to be sitting at his father's right hand. It is said that he never considered making himself equal to God. It says he was created by God. These verses make it clear that Jesus and God are separate.
