    What is geography in simple definition?

    Geography is the study of place and the relationships between people and
    their environments.
    Geographers explore both the physical properties of Earth’s surface and
    the human societies spread across it. They also examine how human
    culture interacts with the natural environment and the way that locations
    and places can have an impact on people. Geography seeks to understand
    where things are found, why they are there, and how they develop and
    change over time.

    Geography is the study of the physical features of the earth and its
    atmosphere, and of human activity as it affects and is affected by these,
    including the distribution of populations and resources, land use, and
    industries. The nature and relative arrangement of places and physical
    features.

    A short history of The Bible

    First, God gave a very special book to mankind to act as a guide to lead
    him out of confusion and into the light of understanding! That guide is the
    Bible, and it was written so that any person who wants to can read and
    understand what it has to say and discover the TRUTH that is inside.
    Because of this, and because of all the confusion in the religious world
    around us, EVERYONE needs to learn to study the BIBLE for himself or
    herself. We at the LMBIS believe this very strongly. Not only do we want
    to help you find answers to your questions, but also, we TRULY WANT TO
    HELP YOU LEARN HOW TO STUDY THE BIBLE FOR YOURSELF.
