In the Gospel of St. John, What is meant by "the word was God"?

Are we to take this reference literally? I doubt it. Is St. John suggesting that God attends the (Lacanian) symbolic order? Or is it a way by St. John to explain to the reader (in the course of the account given in the Gospel) how the Word (to be read as "the Old Testament") relinquished its position as the embodiment of the divine being to Jesus Christ the man, who embodied the Lord through being man, and proved it through being crucified then resurrected?

Should junk food be banned in the USA?

They should really make junk food sooo expensive that most people won't want to purchase it. Fruits and vegetables are so tasty and so good for you. I think people are just giving their children too much processed food and not enough "real" food.

Is it possible that i could violate the restraining order i put on my ex?

Help with under eye bags?

What's the best way to get rid of them? I get 7 to 8 hours of sleep every night, but does the time I go to bed affect it too? I also know that it can't be because of age, I'm pretty young. Some days the bags are pretty bad, other days it's less noticeable but it's almost always there. Because of them I've chosen to wear my gles more often to hide them. Is there a way to get rid of them or any GOOD concealers I could buy at CVS or walmart? They've been bugging me for awhile now, and I'm hoping it's not hereditary or anything

I need an article from a newspaper or magazine or something like that?
