A question about the Islamic faith....just curious?

How many Gods do Muslims worship? I asked this question to a few muslims on paltalk and the told me just one God. Everyone else is telling me they worship hundreds of Gods....the God they worship now is the moon God. I heard that is what the cresent moon symbol on their flag means.....their moon God. I am not trying to be judgmental or anything I am just curious about Islamic faith. Where does Jesus come into the picture? Do muslims believe he is the son of God....do they believe in the cross? Know of any good websites on these topics?

Some Basic Islamic Beliefs \nThe religion of Islam is the acceptance of and obedience to the teachings of God which He revealed to His last prophet, Muhammad .\n1) Belief in God:\nMuslims believe in one, unique, incomparable God, Who has no son nor partner, and that none has the right to be worshipped but Him alone. He is the true God, and every other deity is false. He has the most magnificent names and sublime perfect attributes. No one shares His divinity, nor His attributes. In the Quran, God describes Himself:\n\n Say, “He is God, the One. God, to Whom the creatures turn for their needs. He begets not, nor was He begotten, and there is none like Him.” (Quran, 112:1-4)\nNo one has the right to be invoked, supplicated, prayed to, or shown any act of worship, but God alone.\nGod alone is the Almighty, the Creator, the Sovereign, and the Sustainer of everything in the whole universe. He manages all affairs. He stands in need of none of His creatures, and all His creatures depend on Him for all that they need. He is the All-Hearing, the All-Seeing, and the All-Knowing. In a perfect manner, His knowledge encompasses all things, the open and the secret, and the public and the private. He knows what has happened, what will happen, and how it will happen. No affair occurs in the whole world except by His will. Whatever He wills is, and whatever He does not will is not and will never be. His will is above the will of all the creatures. He has power over all things, and He is able to do everything. He is the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, and the Most Beneficent. In one of the sayings of the Prophet Muhammad , we are told that God is more merciful to His creatures than a mother to her child. God is far removed from injustice and tyranny. He is All-Wise in all of His actions and decrees. If someone wants something from God, he or she can ask God directly without asking anyone else to intercede with God for him or her.\nGod is not Jesus, and Jesus is not God. Even Jesus himself rejected this. God has said in the Quran:\n Indeed, they have disbelieved who have said, “God is the Messiah (Jesus), son of Mary.” The Messiah said, “Children of Israel, worship God, my Lord and your Lord. Whoever associates partners in worship with God, then God has forbidden Paradise for him, and his home is the Fire (Hell). For the wrongdoers, there will be no helpers.” (Quran, 5:72)\n\nGod is not a trinity. God has said in the Quran:\n Indeed, they disbelieve who say, “God is the third of three (in a trinity),” when there is no god but one God. If they desist not from what they say, truly, a painful punishment will befall the disbelievers among them. Would they not rather repent to God and ask His forgiveness? For God is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. The Messiah (Jesus), son of Mary, was no more than a messenger... (Quran, 5:73-75)\nIslam rejects that God rested on the seventh day of the creation, that He wrestled with one of His angels, that He is an envious plotter against mankind, or that He is incarnate in any human being. Islam also rejects the attribution of any human form to God. All of these are considered blasphemous. God is the Exalted. He is far removed from every imperfection. He never becomes weary. He does not become drowsy nor does he sleep.\nThe Arabic word Allah means God (the one and only true God who created the whole universe). This word Allah is a name for God, which is used by Arabic speakers, both Arab Muslims and Arab Christians. This word cannot be used to designate anything other than the one true God. The Arabic word Allah occurs in the Quran about 2700 times. In Aramaic, a language related closely to Arabic and the language that Jesus habitually spoke, God is also referred to as Allah.\n2) Belief in the Angels:\nMuslims believe in the existence of the angels and that they are honored creatures. The angels worship God alone, obey Him, and act only by His command. Among

How far will a baseball travel if it is thrown or hit 80 mph at an 45 degree angle?

We have a radar gun at home and we can measure the velocity of the baseball when it leaves a pitchers hand, or when it leaves the bat after contact. We can also roughly estimate the angle or trajectory of the ball. I am sure there are equations out there that involve takeoff velocity in conjunction with the angle of takeoff, and also air resistance equations. I'm hoping someone with the knowledge or info can help me out. Basically , want to know how far the ball will travel when I hit it 80miles per hour (ball of the bat speed) and I hit it at a 45 degree angle. Thanks...

1. You need to know the initial height of the ball from the ground. I will assume from ground level.\n\n2. Calculate the vertical and horizonal components of the speed.\na^2 + b^2 = c^2 where c = 80 and since it is a 45 angle a=b\n2a^2 = 80^2\na = 56.6 mph (both vertical and horizontal speeds are the same)\n\n2. Now take the vertical speed (56.6mph) and find time it takes to hit the ground.\nSince acceleration due to gravity is -32.2 ft/(s^2)\n56.6 mi/h * 1/60 h/min * 1/60 min/s * 5280 ft/mi = 83 ft/s\nNow using\na=(v2-v1)/t where a is acceleration, v1 = inital velocity, and v2 = final velocity, and t = time it took\n-32.2 = (0 - 83)/t\nt = -83 / -32.2 = 2.58sec\nsince that is the time for the ball to finally reach the top of the arc, multiply by two to get the complete arc\ntotal time in the air = 5.16sec\n\n3.

How far will a baseball travel if it is thrown or hit 80 mph at an 45 degree angle?We have a radar gun at home and we can measure the velocity of the baseball when it leaves a pitchers hand, or when it leaves the bat after contact. We can also roughly estimate the angle or trajectory of the ball. I am sure there are equations out there that involve takeoff velocity in conjunction with the angle of takeoff, and also air resistance equations. I'm hoping someone with the knowledge or info can help me out. Basically , want to know how far the ball will travel when I hit it 80miles per hour (ball of the bat speed) and I hit it at a 45 degree angle. Thanks...1. You need to know the initial height of the ball from the ground. I will assume from ground level.\n\n2. Calculate the vertical and horizonal components of the speed.\na^2 + b^2 = c^2 where c = 80 and since it is a 45 angle a=b\n2a^2 = 80^2\na = 56.6 mph (both vertical and horizontal speeds are the same)\n\n2. Now take the vertical speed (56.6mph) and find time it takes to hit the ground.\nSince acceleration due to gravity is -32.2 ft/(s^2)\n56.6 mi/h * 1/60 h/min * 1/60 min/s * 5280 ft/mi = 83 ft/s\nNow using\na=(v2-v1)/t where a is acceleration, v1 = inital velocity, and v2 = final velocity, and t = time it took\n-32.2 = (0 - 83)/t\nt = -83 / -32.2 = 2.58sec\nsince that is the time for the ball to finally reach the top of the arc, multiply by two to get the complete arc\ntotal time in the air = 5.16sec\n\n3. Calculate distance travelled in that time.\nI am leaving air resistance out due to incomplete data (you need mass of the ball, resistance will also change due to the shape, the barometric pressure, etc.)\n5.16s * 83 ft/s = 428.3 ft travelled\n\nEdit:\nSince the distance from the ground is small compared to the velocity of it falling, we can estimate just an additiona 0.04 secs so total time is now 5.20 secs\n\n4.

Do Christians actually believe the whole Noah's Ark thing?

I mean seriously.\n\nAnd elderly man builts an immense sea going vessel, he captures 2 of every creature on the planet without any animal dying, he feeds them, keeps them seperate from each other, then re-distributes them in their original habitat's post-flood.\n\nWouldn't that make him the first to discover every other continent on the planet?\n\nWouldn't he have had to have some navigation training, equipment, and knowledge about where to find every animal on the planet? Why would the world still think the earth was flat after his journey?\n\nHow the hell did he get the Ark up the Amazon?\n\nDo you actually expect your children to believe this?

One issue that is often raised against Christianity is Noah's Ark and the Flood. Did it really happen? Did the flood really cover the whole world? Is there enough water on earth to cover all the land? Could the ark really hold two of every kind of animal in the world? Though these might be intimidating questions, the answer to each is a resounding, "Yes." \n God said to Noah in Genesis 6:14-16, "So make yourself an ark of cypress wood; make rooms in it and coat it with pitch inside and out. This is how you are to build it: The ark is to be 450 feet long, 75 feet wide and 45 feet high. Make a roof for it and finish the ark to within 18 inches of the top. Put a door in the side of the ark and make lower, middle and upper decks" (NIV). According to God's Word, Noah built the ark. Eight people entered it and all humanity died in the ensuing flood. \n Did the flood really happen? Yes. Jesus said in Matt. 24:37-39 that the flood happened. If you can't trust Jesus, you can't trust anyone. As far as physical evidence goes there are numerous sedimentary deposits world wide which suggest a universal flood. There are countless fossil deposits world wide (For fossilization to occur organisms must be buried rapidly with sediment.). Every major culture has a flood legend. Of over 200 flood legends, 95% say the flood was universal; 70% say survival depended upon a boat; 66% say the wickedness of man was the cause; 88% say there was a favored family; 66% say the remnant was warned; 67% say animals were also saved; 57% say the survivors ended up on a mountain; 35% say birds were sent out; 9% say eight people were saved; and 7% mention a rainbow. \n Is there enough water to flood the entire earth? Absolutely! If the earth were perfectly spherical the oceans would cover all the land by more than a mile in depth. The biblical account is that it rained for 40 days and nights in which the floodgates of the heavens were opened up as well as the fountains from the earth (Gen. 7:11;8:2). There is a theory known as the canopy theory that states it had never rained on the earth up to the time of Noah and that a mist watered the plants (Gen. 2:6-6). The theory goes on to state that there may have been a heavy cloud or water vapor layer over the entire earth and that it was this canopy of water that became torrential rains during the flood period. \n Did the flood cover all the earth? Yes it did. The depth of the flood waters is described in Gen. 7:19 as covering "all the high mountains under the entire heavens." Also, there are many references in the Bible to it being global: Gen. 6:1,4-5,12,13,17,19;7:4,6,10,19;8:3;9:15. There were 40 days of rain (Gen. 7:12), 110 days of flooding (Gen. 7:24) and 221 more days of draining (Gen. 8:1-5,13-14). That is a total of 371 days of flooding that covered the mountains. That could not be a local flood. \n Could the ark really contain all the animals of the world? Again the answer is "Yes." But let's look at the last question in more detail. The ark took about 120 years to build. Noah was 480 years old when he began the work and he had the help of his wife, three sons, and his son's wives. He probably hired local people to help in the construction. \n The dimensions of the ark have a ratio of six to one. The Ark was six times longer than it was wide. This is the best ratio for modern ship building. Model stability tests have shown that the design is stable for waves up to 200 feet high and that the ark could have rotated 90 degrees and still righted itself. \n The volume of the ark would be 450 feet long by 75 feet wide by 45 feet high. This equals 1,518,750 cubic feet and is comparable to 569 modern railroad boxcars. Therefore each boxcar, by comparison, would be 1,518,750 ÷ 569, or 2,669 cubic feet of space. The average size of an animal on the earth is smaller than a cat. But, just to keep it safe let's consider

Can you ban someone for just caring and observing to see if they receive the best of care in a nursing home?

I was banned from seeing the father of my son who has been a large part of my life for 26 yrs. Banned by the Professional Guardian court appointed a few months ago. My ex sustained severe brain injury to due to a fall from over consumption of alcohol that day. I was always by his side being his eyes, ears, and foot work. Really like his advocate, no one else stepped up to the plate to assist me for almost a year. The guardian takes over has him relocated. Our son and I were there for the transport stayed with him notice he was not fed or changed the whole entire day. The Depends he had on was dry all day into the evening. I emailed the guardian and she then decided to ban me from seeing Mike, my ex. Can this happen I have no money to hire an attorney, I am on SSD. I thought you can only be banned if you harm, abuse and interfere in the care of the patient. I believe the guardian is playing on my ignorance. It is hurting me not to see him and it has been 5 mo. since the ban was placed

Hi, I keep a low profile when visiting my Alzheimer's Patients husband. He is in a care facility. It sounds to me that in your caring so much about your sons father, perhaps you have reacted to the lack of proper care he is receiving.\n\nThe law is on your side. He needs an advocate from the system to monitor his care. You pissed somebody off.\n\nYou might suggest that the authorities check on him in the middle of the night. They will look in his mouth with a flashlight, to see if his teeth are being brushed. Also, he should be re-positioned in his bed, and his depends checked, every two hours minimum. \n\nIf you just back off, and it sounds like you have, they will drop their guard, and then someone can nail them. Your son has rights to see his father, and unfortunately you might have to play hardball another way. Someone in this format must have the particulars on what you can do. This can effect your well-being, esp. if you are on SSD. \n\nSounds like he was dehydrated, I assume that is what you meant, when you said his Depends were dry for a long period of time. I think you just need to Zip your Lip, and hunker down, and get the proper Authorities on your side. The system is corrupt. During my training for Alzheimers, I fought for the rights of the Patients, along with another C.N.A, and a Nurse. \n\nMany issues were never resolved. At that time, I was encouraging relatives of the Patients, to visit at unusual times to view the subtle abuses\n\nUnfortunately, the abusers already had an anchor in the Facility, and it was impossible for us to make any changes. It went to the top. I finished my Certifications and left the facility, as did my co-workers who really cared.\n\nSounds like you need to step back, send in a spy with a camera, and a time stamp on it. I used to see people in another section, sitting in their wheel chairs, waiting three to four hours, to be taken to bed. No hygeine, just flopped in bed. The way they landed, was the way they were all night. I would walk down the hallway, and try to make them comfortable. \n\nAlso I had three old Vets with Hep. C. I was reported to the upper staff, for wearing Nitrile gloves to hand feed bread, etc.,to keep from transferring from one patient to another.The Facility had no Universal Precautions in place. (how to handle blood etc.) I know exactly what you are talking about with his care.\n\nWe had a little **** of a Gestapo, mean, mean mean. I told her, that for every mean thing she said to a patient, that I would be right behind her, saying something nice. I went nose to nose with her on many occasion.\n\nIt is true that Caregivers are over worked and under paid, but when on burn out, guess who suffers.\n\nWell, I hope you can work your way back to what you had with your son and his father. He still needs you. You will find a way. \n\nDon't talk to his Guardian at this time. It is just ammunition for her.\nCan you send him a bouquet of flowers, say from neighbors gardens for him through a friend? \n\nHe will have a Caregiver that will tell him it is from you. There is always the good and the evil. The good will win over.\n\n\n\n\n.

Can you ban someone for just caring and observing to see if they receive the best of care in a nursing home?I was banned from seeing the father of my son who has been a large part of my life for 26 yrs. Banned by the Professional Guardian court appointed a few months ago. My ex sustained severe brain injury to due to a fall from over consumption of alcohol that day. I was always by his side being his eyes, ears, and foot work. Really like his advocate, no one else stepped up to the plate to assist me for almost a year. The guardian takes over has him relocated. Our son and I were there for the transport stayed with him notice he was not fed or changed the whole entire day. The Depends he had on was dry all day into the evening. I emailed the guardian and she then decided to ban me from seeing Mike, my ex. Can this happen I have no money to hire an attorney, I am on SSD.

Is the Bible incomplete?

There is an enormous amount of evidence that would suggest that the Bible has been edited and entire books left out of it's text either because the church viewed it as unnecessary to add, a possible forgery(Gospel According to Mary), or contrary to the teachings of the church.And even well studied Roman Catholic Priests and other ordained and educated clergy of various Christian faiths and denominations have admited that it is true that some books were intentionally left out.But if this is true it could change the very foundation of our faith and even views on many things.Things that many don't want changed.What do you think?\n\nSources:\nhttp://www.earlychristianwritings.com/gospelmary.html\n\nhttp://www.prnewswire.com/cgi-bin/stories.pl?ACCT=104&STORY=/www/story/12-19-2003/0002079002&EDATE=

Who remembers Apollo 8? Isn't it true that Apollo 11 was a "milk run" when compaired to what Apollo 8 faced?

Why has history marked Apollo 11 for greatness when it was Apollo 8 who was suddenly cast into the role of being the first to leave Earth and sent to the moon in an untested spacecraft on an untested rocket to preform duties not yet attempted by unmanned Apollo spacecraft? The only thing that prevented Apollo 8 from lunar landing was the fact the lem was yet to be delivered to NASA. Apollo 8 paved the way, took all the risks involved with untested equiptment and reached the moon over 6 months before Apollo 11 was launched. Yet Apollo 11 gets all the glory while history forgets Apollo 8. Does that seem fair?

Each Apollo mission made it possible for the next. Even though Apollo 11 did what the program intended (land and walk on the moon), every Apollo mission was historic!\n\nNow, lets step back a bit....and I'll tell you this from what I remember as a 7 and 8 year old child!!!\n\n1. Apollo 7 tested a brand new Service Module (SM) and Command Module (CM) during a week in orbit around the earth. They tested everything they could on that system, including starting and stopping the hypergolic fueled 22,000lb thrust engine on the SM to ensure it would work once they got to the moon. Apollo 7, although it is never talked about, paved the way for a mission to the moon with Apollo 8. Apollo 7 was a phoenix that rose from the ashes of Apollo 1 where three of our astronauts died in a tragic fire.\n\n2. Because of Apollo 7's resounding success, and some worries about the Russians beating us, they threw the dice and came up with the plan to send Apollo 8 to the moon. So on December 21, 1968 (I was 7 and remember watching this on the TV), Apollo 8 was launched and became the first manned spacecraft to break away from the bonds of Earth's gravitational field. Apollo 8 was the FIRST manned flight of the Mighty Saturn V rocket with its first stage (SV-1) and 5 F-1 engines pumping out 7.5 million pounds of thrust; its 5 J-2 engines, the first engines designed to operate on liquid hydrogen and oxygen in the vacuum of space, on the 2nd stage (SV-2), and finally its lone J-2 engine on the 3rd stage (SVB-IV) that placed them in a parking orbit around the earth, and then restarted and sent them on their merry way to the moon. They were put in a free return trajectory meaning that once they got to the moon, they could if they wanted to, slingshot around its backside and then come home. They didn't do that. At the precise time the 22,000 hypergolic engine on the SM fired and placed them in orbit around the moon! For the first time ever, man saw the backside of the moon! They orbited the moon 10 revolutions during Chrismtas eve and Chrismas day, re-fired that 22,000 engine to break away from the moon's gravitational field and came home and splashed down close to the Christmas Islands.\n\nWho says Apollo 8 is not remembered. Just look at that picture of earthrise. That was a first from Apollo 8's cameras & astronauts. Who can ever forget them reading from the book of Genesis as they orbited the moon. I certainly won't!\n\n3. Apollo 9 was the 2nd flight of the Saturn V rocket and they placed a brand new Lunar Excursion Module (LEM, shortened to LM for Lunar Module) in Earth's orbit and proceeded to test the LM until they were satisfied it worked properly. This meant 2 astronauts leaving their mother ship (CM) and riding around above our atmosphere in a ship with no heatshield and a ship that's walls were made of mylar about as thick as a trojan rubber! The mission was a resounding success.\n\n4. Apollo 10 was the 3rd flight of the Saturn V and they took a LM to the moon and tested it. Part of the mission called for using the descent stage of the LM and getting very close to the surface, but not landing. They did that and then fired the ascent stage to see if it would work. Unfortunately, a switch was in a wrong position and the craft started bucking and wobbling all over the place, leading Gene Cernan to say "son-of-a-b!tch" in response to the wild gyrations of the LM. Needless to say, NASA was not happy with that, but they were glad the 2 astronauts found the switch, changed its position, and then docked with the Apollo 10 CM and came home.\n\n5. So with Apollo 7's success came Apollo 8, then 9, then 10 and because they were all resoundingly successful in proving the rockets and the equipment, they (Apollo 11) were able to land on the moon and walk on its surface 6 months before the end of the decade and fulfilling John F. Kennedy's goal of landing a man on the moon and re

Can you in detail description explain how ac dc plugs and outlets work?

Do you mean ac-dc adapters?\nif so, they transform the current, one to the other to allow different devices to work\nFor example, dc gives too strong power for delicate circuitry, so it must be converted to ac\n\nMore info:\n1) How to find correct Voltage Converter ?\nTo determine the right voltage converter for your appliance, first find out the voltage (110 or 220 Volt AC) and wattage rating (watts or amps) information on the back or bottom of the appliance or from instruction book of an appliance. If no watts are shown and only amps are shown, multiply the volts (input AC) by the amps to find the watts.\nFor example,\n\nVolts(AC input) x Amps(amperage) = Watts (Wattage)\n110V x 0.5A = 55W\nNote: voltage converters or transformers do not change cycles (50Hz or 60Hz)\n\n(go to top)\n\n2) What does voltage converter/ transformer mean?\nVoltage converters/transformers are used to convert electricity. North America and some other countries operate on 110V/120V AC 60Hz, while most of other countries operate on 220/240 volts AC 50Hz. Voltage transformers convert the power into different voltage, so your equipement can be powered at different countries without being demaged.\n\n(go to top)\n\n3) What does "step-up/down transformer" mean?\nStep-up/Down transformers are used to convert electricity from 220V/240V AC to 110/120 V AC (step down) or 110V/120V AC to 220V/240V AC (Step-up). These type of transformers are grounded and with build-in fuses, which provides safety against electrical shock and demage.\n\n(go to top)\n\n4) How do I figure out how many Watts voltage transformer do i need?\nYou need to check how many Watts your applience operates on (You can find this information on a label on the bottom or back of your equipement, or in the manual). If you can't find this information, you can try to find information on amperage (AMPS) of your appliance and multiply it by input voltage (110V or 220V) to arrive at the total wattage.\nVolts x Amps = Watts (i.e 110V x 0.5 AMPS = 55W). Please make sure not to run any applience with higher wattage then woltage transformer's wattage. This might demage both: your applience and the transformer! Heavy duty transformers/converters can be used continously at 17%-80% of their wattage capacity.\n\n(go to top)\n\n5) Will my appliences from overseas work in U.S. and vice versa?\nYes, as long as you get one of our voltage transformers/converters. Consider buying a higher wattage transformer then the wattage rating of your applience. Please, refear to the question above to figure out what type of a converter do you need. Please remember that transformers don't convert cycles! Some cycle sensitive appliences (like microwaves, stereo turn tables and analog clocks may not operat properly. However, most modern electronic equipement is not affected by difference in cycles (computers, printers, mini systems).\n\n(go to top)\n\n6) Can I use several appliences at once on the same voltage converter /transformer?\nYes, as long as total wattage of all your appliences does not exceed the wattage capacity of your transformer/converter. Try to set up your transformer to run at 80% of its wattage to avoid demaging your appliences by power flunctuations.\n\n(go to top)\n\n7) What is the difference between AC/DC adapter?\nMost of the countries use alternating currents (AC). DC stands for direct currents. All appliences and voltage transformers run only on AC electricity.\n\n(go to top)\n\n8) Does the plug shape make the difference, when using my appliences and voltage converter/transformer overseas?\nThere is no worldwide standards for the plug configuration. Plugs, plug shapes, electric outlets differ from country to country. For that reason you need to get a plug adapter, in order to plug your aplliance into foreign electric outlet. You still need a voltage converter, otherwise you might demage your applience or cause fire!\n\n(go to to

For anyone who knows an answer to this one... :)?

I was looking at June 19, 2004 issue of "People" Magazine and they had pictures of Brad, Angelina and their kids. They looks so precious and adorable together :) I've noticed, that there are couple of numbers "written" on the Angelina Jolie's left upper arm, and I was just curious as to what they mean.\n\nI believe, they are some sort of coordinates... But what are they coordinates of? Anyone knows? :)\n\nThe numbers look like this:\nN11[degrees] 33' 00" E104[degrees] 51' 00"\nN09[degrees] 02' 00" E098[degrees] 45' 06"\n\nThank you all for your help and assistance :)\n\n\nP.S.: I believe this type of question is supposed to be in Science, 'cause how else to look for the coordinates? :)

Current Tattoos\n\n \nThe latest tattoo, it features a 20cm wide, 30cm long tiger which is located on her lower back. Angelina got this tattoo in Bangkok, where she spent two hours having the tattoo done. The tattoo was blessed by the tattoo artist (Sompong Kanphai) who chanted an ancient hymn. Angelina stated that she felt that her life had been filled with luck after receiving the first tattoo from him. (Khmer tattoo)\n\n\n \nThis tattoo features a design that means "Strength of Will", located on the inside of her right forearm. This tattoo covered up a tattoo she had gotten together with Billy Bob Thornton.\n\n\n \nThis tattoo features "Know Your Rights" on her back, inbetween her shoulder blades.\n\n\n \nThis tattoo features the Roman Numerals for 13, and they are located on the inside of her left forearm. She got this tattoo because she doesn't believe in superstitions.\n\n\n \nThis tattoo, located on her left shoulder blade, shows Magical Pali incantation written in Khmer, the native language of Cambodia. She got this tattoo to protect herself and Maddox from bad luck and avoid accidents. The lines read:\n\nMay your enemies run far away from you.\nIf you acquire riches, may they remain yours always.\nYour beauty will be that of Apsara. (a celestial dancer from Khmer mythology)\nWherever you may go, many will attend, serve and protect you, surrounding you on all sides.\n\n\n\n \nLater on in life, Angelina got "Billy Bob" tattooed above the black dragon, in reference to her second husband. She has had "Billy Bob" removed since they broke up. It took more than five operations of laser surgery.\n\n\n \nThis tattoo was originally a black dragon on her upper left arm. She then however added it too it later in life. (see above)\n\n\n \nThis tattoo shows the words of a quote from Tennessee Williams, "A prayer for the wild at heart, kept in cages," on the inside of her left forearm. Her mother was present when she got this tattoo.\n\n\n \nThis tattoo shows a dragon, with a blue window beneath it, and both are on her lower back. They symbolize her feeling that all her life she found herself looking out a window, wishing she were somewhere else. \n\n\n \nThis tattoo is a rune shaped design, resembling the letter H, and it is on the inside of her left wrist. Angelina got this tattoo to remind her of (rumoured) former boyfriend Timothy Hutton. But she knows states that it is to remind her of her brother, James Haven.\n\n\n \nThis tattoo was to cover the below tattoo, and it black cross with the latin phrase "Quod me nutrit me destruit" beside it. This phrase translates to: "What nourishes me, destroys me." \n\n\n \nThis tattoo was on Angelina's lower hip, and it was a black dragon with a blue tongue. She got this tattoo covered later on by the tattoo above. "I dropped my pants in a tattoo parlor in Amsterdam. I woke up in a waterbed with this funky-looking dragon with a blue tongue on my hip. I realized I made a mistake, so a few months later I got a cross to cover it. When my pants hang low, it looks like I'm wearing a dagger!".\n\n\n \nThis tattoo is on Angelina's lower back, and they are two tribal signs. It is unclear what they represent.\n\n\nRemoved Tattoos\n\n \nThis tattoo was a special design, created by Angelina and Billy Bob Thornton. It was located on the inside of her right forearm, just below her elbow. She did not have it removed, she had it covered up with a new tattoo. (see above, "Strength of Will")\n\n\n \nThis tattoo is the Chinese symbol for "courage," and she got it to match a tattoo her husband at the time (Jonny Lee Miller) had. She later had this tattoo removed because she felt it wasn't her.\n\n\n \nAngelina's first tattoo, on her left shoulder. This tattoo is the Chinese symbol for "death," and she got it so that whenever she sees it, it would remind her to live. It appears t

Abortion Religious Question ZOMG!!!?

Disclaimer: Please read this at least 4 times, or at least read the entire question ONCE. This question was not meant to offend anyone, this question is for me (a very NON-religious person) tiring to understand another POV (Point of view), if you have a problem with that, please don't answer the question, and go watch Tom & Jerry...Or friends because I equally hate that show.\n\nMy question today since I basically have little to know knowledge of the religion I wanted to know what exactly happens to fetuses that have been aborted or miscarried, no this is an actual question, not some joke. Are they to parish in hell (if so why, if not why not?). And do alive (meaning they were born and still alive today) siblings get to met their unborn brothers and sisters someday?\n\nIn case you were wondering this question, I was just curious. My mother had an an abortion before I was born, and I've always been wondered what would happen to him/her in a religious sense.

Your mother presumably did God's will by having an abortion. There is nothing in the Bible that says that what she did is wrong. And those that say that it was a sin are misleading you. \nIf you were religious, the answer to your question would be found in the foundations of your belief. With that in mind, it is time to form your own beliefs. You have reached the age of reason if you are able to ask the highly theoretical questions that you pose.\nI suggest that you choose a religion or attend non-religious classes to explore what you believe the answer is. After all that is all that matters.\nI commend your mother, she is to be honored for having the fortitude to do God's will in the face of the pro-life anti Christ movement. I hope you will support her in her decision. It is a difficult and hurtful decision.\n\nIn support of your Mother, the Bible offers------\nDeuteronomy 18:20-22\n20 But a prophet who presumes to speak in my name anything I have not commanded him to say, or a prophet who speaks in the name of other gods, must be put to death." \n 21 You may say to yourselves, "How can we know when a message has not been spoken by the LORD ?" 22 If what a prophet proclaims in the name of the LORD does not take place or come true, that is a message the LORD has not spoken. That prophet has spoken presumptuously. Do not be afraid of him.\nJeremiah 23:30-32\n 30 "Therefore," declares the LORD, "I am against the prophets who steal from one another words supposedly from me. 31 Yes," declares the LORD, "I am against the prophets who wag their own tongues and yet declare, 'The LORD declares.' 32 Indeed, I am against those who prophesy false dreams," declares the LORD. "They tell them and lead my people astray with their reckless lies, yet I did not send or appoint them. They do not benefit these people in the least," declares the LORD.\n\nIt is a sin for the pro-life anti Christ movement to continue to tell people that Abortion is wrong. God calls for you to be put to death for falsely presuming to speak his name in support of the pro life movement. No where in the Bible does God say that abortion is murder. In fact God uses abortion through out the Bible to bring about his will.\nI can explain abortion to any person able to understand. I cannot explain it to a Dog, Cat, or closed mind. \nGod is the inventor of abortion. Presumably God uses miscarriage as abortion to expel from a woman's body a fetus that he chooses not to bring to term. God does this service for all animals, not just humans. And God loves these animals and man when he chooses to abort their fetus. For man, God is capable of giving eternal life in exchange for any child, fetus or man that he takes. This is his eternal love for us.\nGod arranged things such that no man lives longer than 150 years, then his time is up and he is also offered eternal life. So God offers eternal spiritual life in exchange for death. \nAnd God chooses which fetuses will be aborted. God has infinite power and can choose to eliminate the possibility of abortion and force the birth of any child he chooses. He does this with other animals and he states in the Bible that he is an all powerful God. He is that powerful.\nIf you abort a child that God wants to live, he can simply transfer that life to another person. It does not mean that you made a wrong choice or that God must live with that Choice. I don't think God would allow Christ’s next coming to be stopped by an abortion that he condones.\nCan a person commit an abortion against God's will? Yes. And it would be sin committed under our Free Will. \nEvidence shows that many miscarried fetuses are malformed. And others are perfect. So we know that God does not use simply malformation as the basis for abortion. God must use other information. For example, God may know that a person is simply not ready for a child. Or the person may not be able to support a

Each church was overrun with pesky squirrels.\n\nOne day, the Presbyterian Church called a meeting to decide what to do about \nthe squirrels. After much prayer and consideration they determined that the \nsquirrels were predestined to be there and they shouldn't interfere with \nGod's Divine will.\n\nIn the Methodist Church the squirrels had taken up habitation in the \nbaptistery Bowl. The deacons met and decided to put a cover on the \nbaptistery bowl and drown the squirrels in it. The squirrels escaped somehow \nand there were twice as many there the next week.\n\nThe Baptist group got together and decided that they were not in a position \nto harm any of God's creation. So, they humanely trapped the squirrels! and \nset them free a few miles outside of town. Three days later, the squirrels \nwere back.\n\nBut the Roman Catholic churchcame up with the best and most effective \nsolution. They baptized the squirrels and registered them as members of the \nchurch. Now they only see them on Christmas and Easter.\nA priest, who wanted to raise money for his church, was told there was a \n>fortune in horse racing, and so he decided to buy a horse and enter it in \n>some races.

The man said ten hail maries and went to his next question.\nWhat about for adultary. The boy responded "Usually about fifty hailmaries".\n"Ok" said the man"my last question", What does the preist usually give you for anal sex. The choirboy replies "a mars bar."A student in a classroom is chosen by the teacher for an illustration on her \nlesson.\n\n"Timmy, look outside, do you see the grass?"\nTimmy replies, "Yes, I see the grass."\n"Ok, look up, do you see the sky outside?"\nTimmy replies, "Yes, I see the sky."\n"Ok, do you see God?"\nTimmy replies, "No, I don't see God."\n"Ok, so that would mean God doesn't exist."\n\nAnother student raises his hand and asks to try an illustraion of his own. \nThe teacher agrees.\n\n"Timmy, do you see the grass outside?"\nTimmy replies, "Yes, I see the grass."\n"Ok, do you see the sky outside?"\nTimmy replies, "Yes, I see the sky."\n"Ok, do you see the teacher's head?"\nTimmy replies, "Yes, I see the teacher's head."\n"Ok, do you see the teacher's brain?"\nTimmy replies, "No, I don't see the teacher's brain."\n"Ok, based on what you were just tought, the teacher doesn't have a brain!"\n\nMoral-\nMoral of this story is,just because you cant see some thing doesnt mean it \ndoesnt exist,just means you cant always see it,like air,or God,or your \nbrains or hearts.\nThere were four country churches in a small Texas town:\nThe Presbyterian Church, the Baptist Church, the Methodist Church and the \nRoman Catholic church. Each church was overrun with pesky squirrels.\n\nOne day, the Presbyterian Church called a meeting to decide what to do about \nthe squirrels. After much prayer and consideration they determined that the \nsquirrels were predestined to be there and they shouldn't interfere with \nGod's Divine will.\n\nIn the Methodist Church the squirrels had taken up habitation in the \nbaptistery Bowl. The deacons met and decided to put a cover on the \nbaptistery bowl and drown the squirrels in it. The squirrels escaped somehow \nand there were twice as many there the next week.\n\nThe Baptist group got together and decided that they were not in a position \nto harm any of God's creation. So, they humanely trapped the squirrels! and \nset them free a few miles outside of town. Three days later, the squirrels \nwere back.\n\nBut the Roman Catholic churchcame up with the best and most effective \nsolution.

Why are yawns contagious?

Pandiculation is the act of stretching and yawning\n-Everyone yawns - babies, kids, teenagers, adults. \n-Some birds, reptiles and most mammals also yawn. \n\nHere are a few things that are known about yawns:\n1.The average duration of a yawn is about 6 seconds. \n2.In humans, the earliest occurrence of a yawn happens at about 11 weeks after conception - that's BEFORE the baby is born! \n3.Yawns become contagious to people between the first and second years of life. \n4.A part of the brain that plays an important role in yawning is the hypothalamus (Part of the forebrain that regulates the amount of fear, thirst, sexual drive and aggression we feel). \n-Research has shown that some neurotransmitters (for example, dopamine, excitatory amino acids, nitric oxide) and neuropeptides increase yawning if injected in the hypothalamus of animals\n\nBut WHY do we yawn?\n-You know that when we are bored, we yawn. \n-Scientists have confirmed this observation by comparing the number of yawns in 17-19 year old students who watched music videos to the number of yawns in students who watched an uninteresting color test bar pattern. \n-As you might have expected, people who watched the color test bar pattern yawned more (5.78 yawns in 30 minutes) than those who watched the "MTV-like" video (3.41 yawns in 30 minutes.) \n-The average duration of yawns was also slightly longer in the test bar viewing group. \n-One unexpected finding was that yawns in male students had a longer duration than those in female students\n\nBut WHY do we yawn when we’re bored?\n-Many people assume that we yawn because our bodies are trying to get rid of extra carbon dioxide (CO2) and to take in more oxygen (O2). \n-According to this theory, when people are bored or tired, they breathe more slowly. \n-As breathing slows down, less oxygen makes it to the lungs. \n-As carbon dioxide builds up in the blood, a message to the brain results in signals back to the lungs saying, "Take a deep breath," and a yawn is produced. \n-The only problem with the excess CO2 theory is that research shows that it may not be true. \n-In 1987, Dr. Robert Provine and his coworkers set up an experiment to test the theory that high CO2/low O2 blood content causes yawning. \n-Air is normally made up of 20.95% O2, 79.02% N2 (nitrogen), 0.03% CO2 (and a few other gases in low concentrations). \n-The researchers gave college students the following gases to breathe for 30 minutes: \nGas #1 100% O2\nGas #2 3% CO2, 21% O2\nGas #3 5% CO2, 21% O2\nGas #4 Normal Air\n-Breathing 100% O2 (Gas #1) or either CO2 gas (Gas #2 and #3) did cause the students to breathe at a faster rate. \n-However, neither CO2 gas nor 100% O2 caused the students to yawn more. \n-These gases also did not change the duration of yawns when they occurred. \n\nThe researchers also looked for a relationship between breathing and yawning by having people exercise. \n-Exercise, obviously, causes people to breathe faster. \n-However, the number of yawns during exercise was not different from the number of yawns before or after exercise. \n-Therefore, it appears that yawning is not due to CO2/O2 levels in the blood and that yawning and breathing are controlled by different mechanisms.\n\n\nSo, the question remains - why do we yawn? \n-Dr. Provine suggests that perhaps yawning is like stretching. \n-Yawning and stretching increase blood pressure and heart rate and also flex muscles and joints. \n-Evidence that yawning and stretching may be related comes from the observation that if you try to stifle or prevent a yawn by clenching your jaws shut, the yawn is somewhat "unsatisfying." \n-For some reason, the stretching of jaw and face muscles is necessary for a good yawn. \n\nIt is possible that yawns are contagious because at one time in evolutionary history, the yawn served to coordinate the social behavior of a group of animals. \n-When one member of the group yawned to signal an event, all the other mem

What you've written is what organized "theocracies" have perpetrated since the dawn of recorded history. While the Catholic Pontiffs of yesteryear have acted particularly egregiously, they are not the only examples of how "Cows, Pigs, Wars, & Witches" (- the title of an anti-religious anthology of anthropolgical, cross-cultural studies, written in the 1970's) have come to be enlisted to create fear in the masses and exact control over protracted periods of time.

In there you can derive the sense that even a country such as ours is vulnerable to these age-old tactics... for example, think on just how effective the "culture of fear" trumped up by the present administration has been in creating an effecient "smokescreen" or deversionary force to escape the public's otherwise probing eyes.

Bored = Afraid of Hindus or Buddhists?

I dont fear any people of faith. Spirituality, like someone said is entirely different. Spiritual people's beliefs, from what ive encountered, are overwhelmingly positive and personal, as opposed to half positive, sometimes disgustingly negative. Buddhists i think have far more sensible and positive beliefs than christians, i think eastern 'religions' are intriguing and to be learned from. I cant say that i dont like all christians, i dont know them all, i dont like what they believe. Dont pray for me, instead smoke a blunt for me, at least do something that accomplishes something. If anyone cares, my belief system is very simple; if there is a god, he will not punish me or anyone else for that matter in any way. Beyond that big IF, i believe that i dont know, and i wont pretend to. But i will constantly question, and never accept blindly the assertions of people who know just as little as i do. Religion WISHES to impose its VERY conservative positions into everyones life.

For thousands of years India has been a veritable laboratory of religion: everything imaginable has been tried out, and nothing ever has completely been rejected. India remains a predominantly Hindu country. Its ethos has evolved down the ages through its the ancient Hindu traditions, customs, philosophy and culture. In spite of many attacks on Hinduism by varied invaders, in spite of rumors of decay and disarray, Hinduism has outlived all announcements of its impending demise. \n\nWhen religion becomes organized, man ceases to be free. It is not God that is worshipped but the group or the authority that claims to speak in his name. It is not faith, but just social idolatry. God is not like a father in a patriarchal society, who has His favorite children to whom He communicates. This idea seems rather archaic and crude. Hinduism believes in behavior than belief and experience over authority. In the words of S. Radhakrishnan, Prophetic religion is severe, militant, uncompromising, intolerant, while mystic religions are renouncing, and peaceful. \n\nThere is no need to be afraid of world's most tolerant, religion wich never persecuted nor attcked any country in name of religion .\n\nBored?? The vast collection of Hidu philosophy is fascinating and colourfull. No one can ever be bored . \n\nIn fact it will improve your understanding of mysticism even in christianity.It is a collection of wisdom of innemerable sages are missing out a great deal.\n\nThe Hindu religious system can be divided into two major systems. The Orthodox system (called astika in Sanskrit) accepts the authority of the Vedas.\n\n1. Sankhya - founder Sage Kapila\n2. Yoga - Sage Patanjali\n3. Mimamsa - Sage Vyasa / Sage Jaimini\n4. Vedanta - Shankaracharya, Ramanuja/Chaitanya/ Madhava/Vallabha\n5. Nyaya - Sage Gautama (not Buddha)\n6. Vaisheshika - Sage Kanda\n\nThe Heterdox (Nastika) system rejects the authority of the Vedas. This system includes Carvaka (materialism), Jainism, and Buddhism. The Carvaka system denies existence of the individual self(atman) apart from the body and rejects the notion of moksha (salvation) for the atman\n\nWisdom of Geeta is a class apart.\n\nHinduism is a religion of freedom. It allows the widest freedom in matters of faith and worship. It allows absolute freedom to the human reason and heart with regard to questions such as the nature of God, soul, creation, form of worship, and goal of life. It does not force anybody to accept particular dogmas or forms of worship. When religion becomes organized, man ceases to be free. For it is not God that is worshipped but the group or the authority that claims to speak in his name. Thus, it becomes a kind of social idolatry. Highly individualistic, Hindus have always resisted any regimentation of thought.\n\nRegarding mothermulesmeals' post:\n\n I am glad I am not one of her friends at whom she is always preaching Jesus !!! It only shows their maturity and her own childish ignorance.\n\nReally she takes advantage of their being tolerance in it. She seems to be blissfully ignorant how irritating it is. Or may be she does not care about it in her zeal.\n\nHow would she feel if they start telling her how immature, egoistic and narrow , is the idea that God asked everyone to follow Jesus !\n\nGod does not his favourite children. Religion is an experience. To think that any human being or institution has the monopoly of God's truth is to commit the sin of pride.

Need help to answer some of job interview questions.?

* why should we hire you?\n*why do you want to work here?\n*what can you do for us that other candidates can't?\n*what are 3 positibe things your lasst boss would say about you?\n*what negative things would your last boss say about you/

I can fully guide you in interview questions:-\n\nTip#1\n\nBe Confident\n\n"Your first impression is your only impression."\n\nNothing is worse than a limp handshake, slumped shoulders, poor eye \ncontact or poor communication skills. A potential employer can tell immediately \nif you are the man or woman for this job by your body language. Although\naggressiveness is a turn-off, being passive gives the indication that \nyou are not sure of yourself or your qualifications. Keep eye contact when\nanswering questions or when the interviewer is speaking directly to \nyou.\n\nSmile occasionally to show your interest and enthusiasm. Keeping a \nsteady gaze on the interviewer can be disturbing to an interviewer. Look away\noccasionally. Lean forward to show that you are interested in what the\ninterviewer is saying. Speak in a concise and clear voice. If you have\nproblems annunciating certain words, don't try to use them on an \ninterview.\n\nIf this is difficult for you, practice with a mirror and pay attention \nto your facial expressions.\n\n\nOther interview killers:\n-Slouching in a chair\n-Crossing your arms\n-Playing with your hair or jewelry\n-Leaning back in chair\n\n\n\nTip# 2\n\nAct As If "You are what you believe."\n\nAct as if you had the job. What would you do if you had this position? \nHow would you act? How would a person in this position act and speak? What \nare your responsibilities in this position? What is a typical day like for \nyou in this job? Change your attitude towards yourself and your strengths. \nIf you start thinking that you won't get the job, you will do small\nunnoticeable things to sabotage your chances. \n\n\nTip#3\n\nKnow The Company "Know your business."\nI once sat on a couple of interviews where the interviewees did not do \nany research on the company. This sends a message that you are looking for \nany job, not this specific job. Once you're interview is scheduled, get on \nthe net and start finding out everything you can about the company. A good \nplace to start is www.hoovers.com., which gives you industry information, top\ncompetitors, names of CEO, etc. If you'd like to know what current or \nformer employees have to say about the company, try www.wwetfeet.com. Beware \nof disgruntled postings. Call the company headquarters and ask for the\nmarketing department to get specific information. Weave your research \ninto the interview by stating. "I read an article in the Wall Street \nJournal, which mentioned that your company is thinking about XYZ." This lets the\ninterviewer know that you have taken the time to know more about the\ncompany. You can ask questions about something you read, but don't \nchallenge them or you'll come across as a know-it-all.\n\nTip# 4\n\nBe Prepared "Know what to say."\n\nMost interviewers ask the same standard questions about your strengths,\nweaknesses, former employers, work history. If you are being interviewed by\nseveral people, this might be a good cop, bad cop situation. Pay attention\nto who is playing bad cop, they are looking for signs of weakness and dishonesty. To be well prepared, before the interview, write out all your\naccomplishments, both personal and professional. List your strengths \nand weaknesses. Be honest, it's easier to remember the truth than it is a \nlie.\n\nExtra Tip: Write out situations in which you have demonstrated: \n\nleadership skills, determination, stress management, creativity, and flexibility. Be prepared to answer the question: "Why do you want this job?" If you're not sure, reevaluate your decision. If you arrive a few minutes early, \nreview what you wrote in the waiting room before the interview. Great list of\ninterview questions: Tested Interview Questions. \n\n\nTip#5\n\nAsk For The Job "You get what you ask for."\nThe most important step in the interviewing process is one most people \nmiss. ASK FOR THE JOB!

depo provera?

what are some of the side effects of the depo shot?

The Basics\n\n"The shot" is an injectable progestin-only prescription method of reversible birth control. It contains a hormone that is similar to the progesterone made by a woman's ovaries to regulate the menstrual cycle. The shot is also known as DMPA. The D stands for "depot," the solution in which the hormone is suspended. The hormone is medroxyprogesterone acetate. The common brand name for the DMPA shot is Depo-Provera.\n\nA shot of DMPA can prevent pregnancy for 12 weeks. It\n\n\nusually, prevents the ovaries from releasing an egg (ovulation)\n\nless often, thickens cervical mucus to prevent sperm from joining an egg\n\nalters the lining of the uterus, which, in theory, may prevent implantation of a fertilized egg\n\nEffectiveness\n\nThe shot is one of the most effective reversible methods of birth control. Of every 1,000 women who use it correctly and consistently, only three will become pregnant during the first year of use. Three in 100 women will become pregnant with typical use.\n\nProtection is immediate if you take the shot during the first seven days of your period. Otherwise, use a backup method of contraception for the first week. Protection lasts for 12 weeks.\n\nThe shot is not effective against sexually transmitted infections. Use a latex or female condom to reduce the risk.\n\n\nAdvantages & Disadvantages\n\nAdvantages\n\ncan be used by women who cannot take estrogen\n\ncan be used while breastfeeding\n\neffective for 12 weeks\n\nhelps prevent cancer of the lining of the uterus\n\nno pill to take daily\n\nnothing to put in place before vaginal intercourse\n\nDisadvantages\n\n\nmust receive shot every three months\n\npregnancies, which very rarely occur, are more likely to be ectopic (in a fallopian tube)\n\nmay not be used continuously for more than two years unless no other method is right for you\n\ntakes an average of nine to 10 months — or sometimes more than a year — to get pregnant after getting the last shot\n\nPossible Side Effects\n\nIrregular bleeding is the most common side effect for women using DMPA. It is more common in the first six to 12 months of use. \n\nPeriods become fewer and lighter for most women, and often stop altogether. The longer a woman uses the shot, the more likely her periods will stop. It may take up to a year for periods to return after a woman's last shot.\n\nSome women will have longer, heavier periods.\n\nSome may have increased light spotting and breakthrough bleeding.\n\nDMPA use is associated with temporary bone thinning. Talk with your health care provider about the risks. To help protect your bones, get regular exercise and get extra calcium and vitamin D — either through your diet or by using supplements.\n\nLess Common Side Effects \n\n\nchange in sex drive\n\nchange of appetite, weight gain\n\ndepression\n\nhair loss, or increased hair on the face or body\n\nheadache\n\nnausea\n\nnervousness, dizziness\n\nskin rash or spotty darkening of the skin\n\nsore breasts\n\nThere is no way to stop the side effects of the shot c they may continue until it wears off (12–14 weeks).\n\nWarning Signs\n\nSerious problems are rare. Tell your clinician immediately if you have\n\n\na new lump in your breast\n\nmajor depression\n\nsevere pain in the stomach or abdomen\n\nunusually heavy or prolonged vaginal bleeding\n\nyellowing of skin or eyes\n\nWho Can Use the Shot?\n\nMost women can use the shot. \n\nIt may be especially appropriate if you\n\nwant very effective long-lasting contraception\n\ncannot take estrogen\n\nare unable to use barrier methods routinely or take a daily pill\n\nUsually women who use the shot need special medical supervision if they have\n\n\ncurrent serious blood clotting conditions\n\nhigh blood pressure\n\nhigh risk for heart disease\n\na history of severe depression\n\nliver disease, such as hepatitis, abnormal results on liver function tests, or a history of liver tumors\n\nYou should not use the shot if you\n\n\ncan

Cheating/Many Lies = Beyound Repair?

Ok, constructive comments only please - certain level of maturity required :) this is long.\n\nIn short, been having problems with my live-in B/F of 4.5 yrs. I want to preface this with the fact that outside this issue all else is peachy and we match really well/have a great time/always together/similar minded/connected, etc. \n\nAbout a year ago, I found out that since we were together, he'd spend some time on myspace (hi5, friendster, name it) and had like 133 friends/chicks on it (mostly 18-20 yr olds); which all of them he claimed he never met. Of course, no mention of me or being in a LTR in his profiles.\n\nLater I found out he asked at least one girl for lunch (she didn't jump though), and brought at least two home on different occasions (my b/f took like 200 of naked (not the artistic kind either) pics of them, but yet says he didn't hook up with either one. There was also a few of weird emails like replying to Craisglsit NSA type personals, etc, over a course of 4 years (he used to work from home before so if anything went on before 7pm, I wouldn't know). \n\nThis totally bugged me and we fought over it (i.e, I'd cry and he'd get ticked off and say "it's nothing", etc). \n\nTired of such crap, I left for a short vacation (alone), to clear my head, have some fun, nothing more. And that I did; met a bunch of people including some guy I kept in touch via phone/email for about 2 weeks after my trip. Nothing happened, just some flirty conversations (which was wrong on my part, but I am vindictive). I know I was wrong to even go that far.\n \nMy B/F was furious though (apparently, what was OK for him to do, was not for me) when he saw the emails, we had a falling out; made up, I stopped communication with this dude, etc. \n\nShortly after though, I emailed spoke with this 18 yr old chick he went after on myspace, and brought home for the so-called "photoshoot" (the last one happened 3 months ago) while I was away. She said he tried to "do"\nher after a lap dance she gave, and they had a fight over that, the end. \n\nI confront him - no drama, mind you - I'm too shocked to even cry, just calmly tell him I want out of this sh*t ASAP. He swears and begs and cries for a few hrs and makes me stay. Obviously, all his profiles come down and he promises not to ever pull any remotely similar stunts. Conveniently, at that time - he buys me the ring and we're consumed with it for a while. (He never wanted to hear about marriage or this type of stuff before). The ring goes back (we saw a better style) and he decided to postpone the purchase, which is fine with me. He is starting a new business and our *next step* is just not a priority (nor do I think it will ever be, in fairness partly due to stuff beyond his control). \n\nYet, somehow we work things out (or so it seemed), and we did have a great month together. \n\nI thought I put this sh*t behind us, or rather tried to tell myself I did. Obviously not. I can't seem to get past it. Am I crazy for even trying?? Is it even possible considering our history? Yet again, there has been so many great times... I don't want to bring this up again to my b/f as he'd just probably get mad.\n\nAll that from a guy who says he loves me, and I do believe that, as he treats me so well and even lets me drive his car :) I do love him also (seriously). I'm not a prude, I can understand attraction and flirting (which he also has no problem doing in front of me), but maybe this is a bit much. \n\nHe is a good father (the man is 40, I'm 31) to his 2 teen live-away kids from prior marriage, a hard worker and a very responsible, smart, educated, articulate, charming guy. Everybody loves him, including my parents. So it's not like I ask for advice from people I know.\n\nHere is my question; obviously he lied before, but is there any chance he may be telling the truth when he says he won't cheat/do any weird crap to

remember one thing LOVE ONLY GOES SO FAR.love can only do so much,don't let it repair what is broken and cant be fixed.if he is a type of person that hides things from you then what will he hide when you are married?I'm a guy and yes i fuck up but I know what hurts the person I love,I don't want a payback from her either because that sucks.I don't know what to tell you don't let no one make your mind up on what to do,and don't let love make the choice either,because will only take you so far....hope i helped

What is the funniest joke you have ever heard?

Mine is\nThree men who were lost in the forest were captured by cannibals. The cannibal king told the prisoners that they could live if they pass a trial. The first step of the trial was to go to the forest and get ten pieces of the same kind of fruit. So all three men went separate ways to gather fruits.\n\nThe first one came back and said to the king, "I brought ten apples." The king then explained the trial to him. "You have to shove the fruits up your butt without any expression on your face or you'll be eaten."\n\nThe first apple went in... but on the second one he winced out in pain, so he was killed.\n\nThe second one arrived and showed the king ten berries. When the king explained the trial to him he thought to himself that this should be easy. 1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8.... and on the ninth berry he burst out in laughter and was killed.\n\nThe first guy and the second guy met in heaven. The first one asked, "Why did you laugh, you almost got away with it?" The second one replied, "I couldn't help it, I saw the third guy coming with pineapples."

Little Tony was staying with his grandmother for a few days. He'd been playing outside with the other kids for a while when he came into the house and asked her, "Grandma, what is that called when 2 people are sleeping in the same room and one is on top of the other?"\n\nShe was a little taken aback, but decided to tell him the truth. "It's called sexual intercourse, darling."\n\nLittle Tony just said, "Oh, OK" and went back outside to talk and play with the other kids.\n\nA few minutes later he came back in and said angrily, "Grandma, it is not called sexual intercourse! It's called Bunk Beds! And Jimmy's Mom wants to talk to you!!"\n\n---x---\n\nJane caught her husband Bob searching high and low all around his living room.\n\nJane: 'What are you searching for?'\n\nBob: 'Hidden cameras!'\n\nJane: 'And what makes you think that there are hidden cameras here?'\n\nBob: 'That guy on TV knows exactly what I am doing. Why every few minutes he keeps saying 'You are watching MTV! How does he know that?'\n\n---x---\n\nThere was a priest and a minister on the side of a road. There was a sign that said, "Beware! The end is near!"\nA man drove past them and said, "You religious freaks! Get a real job!" After that, he turned a corner and the priest and minister heard a big splash. "Do you think," said the minister, "that we should just write "the bridge is out?"\n\n---x---\n\nTwo men are sitting drinking at a bar at the top of the Empire State Building, when the first man turns to the other and says "You know, last week I discovered that if you jump from the top of this building, the winds around the building are so intense that by the time you fall to the 10th floor, they carry you around the building and back into a window".\nThe bartender just shakes his head in disapproval while wiping the bar.\nThe second guy says, "What, are you nuts? There's no way that could happen."\n"No, its true," the first man says. "Let me prove it to you."\nHe gets up from the bar, jumps over the balcony, and plummets toward the street below. As he nears the 10th floor, the high winds whip him around the building and back into the 10th floor window and he takes the elevator back up to the bar.\nHe meets the second man, who looks quite astonished. "You know, I saw that with my own eyes, but that must have been a one time fluke."\n"No, I'll prove it again," says the first man as he jumps again. Just as he is hurtling toward the street, the 10th floor wind gently carries him around the building and into the window. Once upstairs he urges his fellow drinker to try it.\n"Well, why not." the second guy says, "It works. I'll try it." He jumps over the balcony, plunges downward passes the 11th, 10th 9th, 8th, floors. . . . . and hits the sidewalk with a SPLAT.\nBack upstairs the bartender turns to the other drinker and says, "You know Superman, you're a real jerk when you're drunk".\n\n---x---\n\nDialogues from a standard 3 class room (between two students Tom the smart and Johnny the genius & the teacher)\nTom: Teacher, teacher; is the bus is male or female?\nTeacher: Hmm….

I would love to know some about rugby.?

Well you see I'm american born but I have background from England , Scotland , Ireland , and Italy. I know this has nothing to do with it but anyway one of the things I'd seen was that they play rugby in England and I was wondering if anyone can tell me more about it. I'm sure if they play it in the USA they call it something stupid and I figure I could get a real answer here.

http://www.unc.edu/uncrugby/id140.htm\nhttp://www.sportsknowhow.com/rugby/rules/rugby-rules.html\nhttp://www.whatshappeningdaytona.com/recreation/article/81\n\nFull review \nThe Union game, supposedly started by William Webb Ellis in the schools in Rugby, has many complicated laws and can only be played successfully when all, or most of these rules are learnt. Here, I will tell you about all of the rules of the game, and detail anything that you might want to know. I hope that it will be of some use to people. \n\nPositions: \n\nFull Back - The full back starts the game behind all of the other players. He must be quick, strong, a good tackler and a good kicker of the ball. When the team is attacking, the fulll back may move into the backs line to create an overlap, and maybe to come from a long distance at pace to break the defence and score a try. The kicking part comes into play when the opposition kick over the top. The full back must be fully aware of the rules that he can enforce on the chasing players, and he must be aware of the balls position at all times. \n\nWinger - There are two winger on each team, left and right. If the play is due to move left, then the left winger must join on to the backs line at the end, if it goes right then the right winger must do the same. The winger who is not involved in this play, has two options. He can wait on the side he is on for a switch of play, or a kick over the top, or he could loop round the whole back line to add another player and create an overlap. This player must be very fast and have good stamina. \n\nCentre - There are two centres on each team. They are the heart of the back line. They must be very good tacklers and very strong on the ball. The two centre are inside, nearest the scrum, and outside, nearest the wing. The inside centre will need to be a creative player, as they will have the ball a lot, and doing the same thing all the time will not break through a good defence. \n\nFly-Half - This player is usually the teams kicker. The fly-half, or stand-off as it is sometimes called, will take kick-offs, conversions and any kicks at goal. The fly-half a lso needs to be creative, and they will work closely together with the inside centre, and will in some cases, swap for short durations of a match. \n\nScrum-Half - Often the most creative player on the team. The scrum-half is usually a small man, but is also quick and strong. The scrum-half has the responsibility of following the ball carrier behind the forwards, and taking the ball out from a ruck or maul. If the scrum-half takes the ball on himself and gets tackled, then the fly-half must cover the position. \n\nNumber 8 - The number 8 is usually a big man, and he plays at the back of the scrum. The number 8 usually controls the play from a scrum, and can pick the ball up himself instead of letting the scrum-half pass it out to the backs. This law can be useful when a scrum is won close to the try-line, and the backs would not necessarily get through the defence. \n\nFlanker - Works closely together with the number 8. There are two flankers on each team, blind and open. The flanker must be fairly quick and strong, and must be prepared to take the ball on a lot. The flankers are positioned on the flank of the scrum, hence the name of the position. \n\nLock - There are two lock forwards in each team. The locks are usually tall and strong, and they are a part of the 'tight five' in the scrum. The locks, also known as second-rows, play closely with the props and hooker, and play a big part in rucks and mauls. It is their job to prevent the opposition winning the ball from these plays. It is often the locks that are lifted in the line-outs, because of their height advantage. \n\nProp - There are two props in each team, and they are usually small, strong men. They must prop up the hooker in a scrum, and are usually responsible for lifting the jumper in line-out. The props are also part of the 'tight five',

Holy books?

Holy books instruct us to kill people for working on the wrong day (Exodus 31:15), or because they're homosexual (Leviticus 20:13), and millions believe these are the words of God, so is it possible that religions inherently breed violence, or is it just some religions, or do they only do so if people really take their religions seriously?

Is 13 yrs of age to old to start training for figure Ice Skating?

My daughter is very upset because she wants to be a professional Figure Ice Skater, however I told her that at age 13 with no past Ice Skating training it is to late to start to train.I told her she can do it for fun but I will not invest the Thousands $$$$$ it would tke considering her age. I am am very much the type of person who encourages dreams, but this one is just not vesable for the investment......Any thoughts on this, from people who either train in figure skating or are ice skaters themselves??????\n she will read your answers. Thank you everyone-

Good day. \n\nHope I can give you some detailed info on figure skating. I was a former competitive figure skater and have been coaching figure skating for 15+ years in the DFW area. My students range from beginning level through national competitors.\n\nThere are two recognized organizations in the United States for figure skating: USFSA (United States Figure Skating Association) and ISI (Ice Skating Institute). \n\nUSFSA is the road to the US Figure Skating Championships, Worlds and the Olympics. The levels in USFSA are pre-preliminary, preliminary, pre-juv, juv, intermediate, novice, junior and senior. In the qualifying competitions, there are specific age restrictions for the appropriate levels. \n\nFor example: to compete at the regional level in juv girls the age limit is 12 years. Keep in mind that even at the pre-preliminary level the girls are doing axels. \n\nInitially, the skater would do learn-to-skate classes and private lessons to get them through the basic skill level. Then they would move up to pre-preliminary levels and begin a series of tests: field moves (replaced school figures) and freeskate tests. Successfully passing these tests qualifies the skater for their competition levels.\n\nI would highly recommend that your daughter skate through the ISI program. There are numerous competition opportunities for your daughter's age range. \n\nCheck with the local skating rink in your area to see if their skating classes follow the ISI curriculum. It is geared primarly for recreational skaters and even goes through adult levels for competitions. It is a great organizations and they even have their own "Worlds" each summer with no qualifying, unlike USFSA. Any eligible ISI skater can compete at ISI Worlds. It is being held this year (July) in Boston. One of my skaters is competing at that competition. My students range from ISI to USFSA skaters and both organizations are wonderful! \n\nShe should start with learn-to-skate classes and supplement a private lesson once a week. Repetition is key in figure skating and she should be practing twice a week. This would be in addition to her learn to skate class. \n\nPlease purchase her a pair of skates. The rental skates are HORRIBLE....no support and they never sharpen the blades, making it difficult for the skaters to even hold an edge. Skates can be expensive.....however, the 'Riedell' boot & blade can be purchaed for around $150. You don't need an expensive boot & blade until the skater starts landing double jumps and requires a strong support to hold the edge.\n\nISI is lots of fun....competition events range from the traditional freeskate program to the "spotlight" where technical merit is not awarded and the more creative you can be as far as character, footwork, etc., you will do well. \n\nISI's headquarters is in Dallas, TX. She would need to join the ISI organization (around $15/yr) to become eligible to compete in ISI competition events. The private lesson coach would test her ($5/test) so she can compete at that skill level. The levels in ISI are Pre-alpha, alpha, beta, gamma, delta, Freeskate 1 through Freeskate10.\n\nISI is lots of fun, affordable and give your daughter the opportunity to see if she likes it or not. Skating is NOT easy and the more your practice, the greater the improvement. \n\nHave her practice initially on a public skating session (less $) and her private lesson to begin with can be conducted on that type of session. If you are preparing for a competition and she is at the Delta level, then it's the right time to move to a freestyle session for practice/lessons. \n\nIf you reside in the DFW area, I would be more than happy to speak with you in person. \n\nThank you and I trust this was informative.\n\n\n\nI

Legalizing prostitution: who's with me on this one?!?

I just don't see what harm it can bring! We all know that prostitution is a job like any other, and whether we think it's right or wrong,it's always going to have a place in our society.. We have no choice but to accept it! Respect it...I live in Canada and our government is pretty conservative I don't think this will happen any time soon.. It would be amazing if every country could follow the example of the Netherlands! In Amsterdam, men have specific places to go to if they want to resort to a prostitute and the women there do feel safer as they are more surrounded I guess you could say... Yesterday night I took a walk near my house, (I live in Montreal by the way) and it is pretty safe around where I live... it was passed midnight and I was walking with a friend and I saw a man in his truck with another woman... I was discusted. I'm not stupid, I know this happens, but why does it have to be in my NICE NEIGHBORHOOD?There are 2 sides to a medal, but this one we should all work with

it's one of those things where the conditions need to be just right for it to work, like socialism. it will never happen in the US or canada, for instance, because conservative-minded people are the ones who turn out to vote.\n\nnow there are exceptions to every rule, but IN GENERAL:\n1) liberals are young people, women, or racial minorities, conservatives are rich white men, often religious, who regard prostitution as morally reprehensible (even if they are frequent clients... hypocrisy is alive and well)\n2) young people lack the level of maturity required to make this work, as you can see from some of these postings\n3) women wouldn't vote in favor of this on principle, because it is degrading to sell one's body (prostitution is rarely a first-choice profession; it's usually a last resort... people feel better about themselves if they try to provide other options and programs to help these women rather than just giving up on them)\n4) at this point, racial minorities are over-represented in the desperate, impoverished groups and they wouldn't vote in favor of legalizing prostitution either, because it is their sisters and daughters and whatnot who are turning to prostitution. not a pleasant mental image, right? i just can't wrap my head around the idea of a) being a prostitute myself, b) any of my female relatives or friends doing it.\n\nprostitutes are easy targets. their services are nearly always carried out in 1:1 ratios, behind closed doors, with people who outweigh them and can easily overpower them. it's a dangerous job, but would legalizing it fix the problem? unless we eliminate the risky factors, for example by monitoring devices or bodyguards present in the room (kind of a turn off, no?), it's still very dangerous. there really is no way to screen the clients for communicable diseases or psychotic tendencies (until it is too late). condoms are not 100% reliable at preventing pregnancy or disease, so what's a life worth? i get $150 and a lethal disease (at which point i'm out of a job), you get an orgasm, we're even?\n\nprostitution may be the oldest profession, but it has never been one that commanded respect. women had to rely on men for everything, because they were sub-human slaves who weren't allowed to think for themselves or work or hold office or vote. if all their male relatives were gone (husband, father, brothers-in-law, brothers, cousins, sons, etc) for some reason, they became prostitutes in order to have enough money to eat. they became the slaves/property of strangers so that the strangers would take care of them for a short time. they were pseudo-husbands in a time when men were generally misguided pigs but still had enough compassion to "help" those women. i think/hope that things have changed since then. there are some countries where women still have no rights, but the men seem to feel a responsibility toward their "subordinates." are things better that way? you are free to decide for yourself. i mean, it is nice to be taken care of, but i'll take human dignity any day. maybe it's stupid american pride.\n\nevery species has a sexual ideal. we humans tend toward the ideal of one male and one female mating for life. we tend to look down on those who choose a different lifestyle. ever meet someone who was happily single, not dating, and they complain about their family constantly hounding them about getting married/settling down/raising a family? gays, lesbians, catholic priests, prostitutes, single mothers.... all these deviate from what is perceived as "ideal." the media loves to talk about these people because their sex lives are scandalous. prostitution cannot ever be a respectable profession.\n\ni think even in places where it is legal, there are negative consequences that may not be immediately apparent. we should ask ourselves: have those women freely chosen that profession, with a

In Amsterdam, men have specific places to go to if they want to resort to a prostitute and the women there do feel safer as they are more surrounded I guess you could say... Yesterday night I took a walk near my house, (I live in Montreal by the way) and it is pretty safe around where I live... it was passed midnight and I was walking with a friend and I saw a man in his truck with another woman... I was discusted. I'm not stupid, I know this happens, but why does it have to be in my NICE NEIGHBORHOOD?There are 2 sides to a medal, but this one we should all work withit's one of those things where the conditions need to be just right for it to work, like socialism. it will never happen in the US or canada, for instance, because conservative-minded people are the ones who turn out to vote.\n\nnow there are exceptions to every rule, but IN GENERAL:\n1) liberals are young people, women, or racial minorities, conservatives are rich white men, often religious, who regard prostitution as morally reprehensible (even if they are frequent clients... hypocrisy is alive and well)\n2) young people lack the level of maturity required to make this work, as you can see from some of these postings\n3) women wouldn't vote in favor of this on principle, because it is degrading to sell one's body (prostitution is rarely a first-choice profession; it's usually a last resort... people feel better about themselves if they try to provide other options and programs to help these women rather than just giving up on them)\n4) at this point, racial minorities are over-represented in the desperate, impoverished groups and they wouldn't vote in favor of legalizing prostitution either, because it is their sisters and daughters and whatnot who are turning to prostitution. not a pleasant mental image, right? i just can't wrap my head around the idea of a) being a prostitute myself, b) any of my female relatives or friends doing it.\n\nprostitutes are easy targets. their services are nearly always carried out in 1:1 ratios, behind closed doors, with people who outweigh them and can easily overpower them. it's a dangerous job, but would legalizing it fix the problem? unless we eliminate the risky factors, for example by monitoring devices or bodyguards present in the room (kind of a turn off, no?), it's still very dangerous. there really is no way to screen the clients for communicable diseases or psychotic tendencies (until it is too late). condoms are not 100% reliable at preventing pregnancy or disease, so what's a life worth? i get $150 and a lethal disease (at which point i'm out of a job), you get an orgasm, we're even?\n\nprostitution may be the oldest profession, but it has never been one that commanded respect. women had to rely on men for everything, because they were sub-human slaves who weren't allowed to think for themselves or work or hold office or vote. if all their male relatives were gone (husband, father, brothers-in-law, brothers, cousins, sons, etc) for some reason, they became prostitutes in order to have enough money to eat. they became the slaves/property of strangers so that the strangers would take care of them for a short time. they were pseudo-husbands in a time when men were generally misguided pigs but still had enough compassion to "help" those women. i think/hope that things have changed since then. there are some countries where women still have no rights, but the men seem to feel a responsibility toward their "subordinates." are things better that way? you are free to decide for yourself. i mean, it is nice to be taken care of, but i'll take human dignity any day. maybe it's stupid american pride.\n\nevery species has a sexual ideal. we humans tend toward the ideal of one male and one female mating for life. we tend to look down on those who choose a different lifestyle. ever meet someone who was happily single, not dating, and they complain about their family constantly hounding them about getting married/settling down/raising a family? gays, lesbians, catholic priests, prostitutes, single mothers.... all these deviate from what is perceived as "ideal." the media loves to talk about these people because their sex lives are scandalous. prostitution cannot ever be a respectable profession.\n\ni think even in places where it is legal, there are negative consequences that may not be immediately apparent. we should ask ourselves: have those women freely chosen that profession, with a

How do you promote your website online? Is therea way to do this without software?

If you have to use software what is the best software out there something that actually works to promote your website, link exchange and all of that good stuff. I've used search engine software but it doesn't seem to work well at all?

"If you build it, they will come" is not necessarily true on the Web. Putting a website up is one thing, but getting visitors to come to your site is another. The process becomes even more difficult if you have limited resources to market your business.\n\nHere are some shoestring marketing ideas that can help you get the visitors you need at the least cost possible: \n\n1. Create the best content you can with the best products you can possibly offer. Your content is your best advertisement - if visitors love your content, then they will go back and spread the word to others.\n\n2. Make it easy for users to recommend your site. Viral marketing is very important -- and easy to tap on the Web. But give your users the tools. Get a Recommend this Site script from websites such as cgiscripts.com and similar directories of scripts. Some even go as far as giving incentives to those who recommend the site to their friends. If only 10 people go to your site, but these 10 people invite 10 more - that's additional traffic that you get for FREE!\n\nRecommend Site Scripts (various) http://php.resourceindex.com/Complete_Scripts/Website_Promotion/Recommend_Site/\nBig Nose Bird Recommend this Site http://bignosebird.com/carchive/birdcast.shtml \nCGI Resource Index http://cgi.resourceindex.com/Programs_and_Scripts/Perl/Website_Promotion/Recommend_Site/\nHostscripts http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/Site_Recommendation/index.html\n\n3. Rank well in the search engines (organic search results, not the pay per click). SEs can be a big source of traffic. The key is to create the best content in your niche. If you have good content, other websites will gladly link to you and offer your site as a resource to their audience. Check the on-page factors and be sure to get linked from authority sites in your topic area.\n\nIf you are going to read only one piece on search engine optimization, I suggest you read Brett Tabke of WebmasterWorld.com's "Successful Site in 12 Months with Google Alone: 26 steps to 15k a day." http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum3/2010.htm \n\nSEO for Google http://www.powerhomebiz.com/052006/google.htm\nSEO for Yahoo! http://www.powerhomebiz.com/052006/yahoo.htm\nSEO for MSN http://www.powerhomebiz.com/052006/msn.htm\nTying It Together: SEO For The Big Three http://www.powerhomebiz.com/052006/seo.htm\n\n4. Send out press releases. While outfits charge as much as $650 per release, there are free press release submission places on the Web. Press releases allow you to (a) attract media attention; (b) get more back links to your website without sending each website an email request; and (c) get more visibility especially if your press release gets in Google News or Yahoo News. My website (see my profile) accepts free press release submission (no strings attached!)\n\n5. Submit articles. Write articles and submit them to websites accepting author submissions. You get exposure for your business; establishes you as an authority in your field, and allows you to get backlinks for your website. If 50 websites publish your article and it contains a link back to your website, then you easily get 50 links from a single article. The more links you have, the greater your chances for increasing your search engine rankings.\n\nHere is a comprehensive list of where to submit your articles http://answers.yahoo.com/question/;_ylt=AhzreGmnCUicOoyedqypscUjzKIX?qid=1006022407481\n\n6.

Why does ISLAM'S QURAN claim woman are like FIELDS (property) that can be PLOWED (tilthed) ANYTIME?

Quran 2:223 “Your wives are a tilth for you, SO GO INTO YOUR TILTH WHEN YOU LIKE ...” http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran/002.qmt.html\n\nIf Allah didnt mean to give men to have the right to have sex with woman "when they like" why did Allah say it? Allah could have qualified it also. \n\nHe could have said "Your wives are as tilthe unto, so go into your tilthe when you like unless the signs are not there, for allah does not like a rapist".\n\nOk, suppose Allah really believes woman should not have a choice...shouldnt he at least have given a health exception?\n\nHe could have wrote "Your wives are as tilthe unto, so go into your tilthe when you like unless she is gravely ill, Allah forbids you to get sickness from your properties"

why did the chicken Cross the road?

Question: Why did the chicken cross the road?\n\nAnswers: (courtesy: wellwisher, Pd and sueet2b)\n\n\n\n\n\nTHE SPHINX: You tell me.\n\nKINDERGARTEN TEACHER: To get to the other side.\n\nMOSES: And God came down from the Heavens, and He said unto the chicken, "Thou shalt cross the road." And the chicken crossed the road, and there was much rejoicing.\n\nGANDHI: All chickens should peacefully resist by crossing the road.\n\nSHAKESPEARE: To cross or not to cross, that is the question.\n\nRENE DESCARTES: Since the chicken does not really exist it was only an illusion that the chicken crossed the road. This illusion was only in my mind. Therefore I created the chicken that crossed the road.\n\nPLATO: For the greater good.\n\nARISTOTLE: It is the nature of chickens to cross roads.\n\nKARL MARX: It was a historical inevitability.\n\nTIMOTHY LEARY: Because that's the only trip the establishment would let it take.\n\nCAPTAIN JAMES T. KIRK: To boldly go where no chicken has gone before.\n\nHIPPOCRATES: Because of an excess of phlegm in its pancreas.\n\nMARTIN LUTHER KING, JR.: I envision a world where all chickens will be free to cross roads without having their motives called into question.\n\nRICHARD M. NIXON: The chicken did not cross the road. I repeat, the chicken did NOT cross the road.\n\nMACHIAVELLI: The point is that the chicken crossed the road. Who cares why? The end of crossing the road justifies whatever motive there was.\n\nFREUD: The fact that you are at all concerned that the chicken crossed the road reveals your underlying sexual insecurity.\n\nBILL GATES: I have just released eChicken 2003, which will not only cross roads, but will lay eggs, file your important documents, and balance your checkbook - and Internet Explorer is an inextricable part of eChicken.\n\nGEORGE W. BUSH: We don't really care y the chicken crossed the road. We just want to know if the chicken is on our side of the road or not. The chicken is either with us or it is against us. There is no middle ground here.\n\nBILL CLINTON: I did not cross the road with THAT chicken. What do you mean by chicken? Could you define chicken, please?\n\n\nJOHN KERRY: I agree that the chicken should cross the road, but I believe that the chicken should not get to the other side.\n\nJACQUES CHIRAC: The chicken has rights, mais oui? We care not whether the chicken crosses the road since we will claim her eggs regardless of on which side of the road she lays them, n'est pas?\n\nTONY BLAIR: It is clear to Her Majesty's government that the chicken has disguised and hidden her eggs, which, under extraordinary circumstances, particularly on All Hallow's E'en, can certainly be used as weapons of mass destruction\n\nCOLIN POWELL: Now at the left of the screen, you clearly see the satellite image of the chicken crossing the road. As you can see this is not about whether inspectors made sure the chicken crossed the road, it's about the willingness of the chicken to cross the road voluntarily.\n\nSADDAM HUSSEIN: This was an unprovoked act of rebellion and we were quite justified in dropping 50 tons of nerve gas on it.\n\nRONALD REAGAN: What chicken?\n\nSNOOP DOGG: This (censored) fool of a chicken didn't (censored) know what the (censored) he was doin’ crossin’ a (censored) alley in (censored) Harlem at 1:00 in the (censored) mornin’.\n\nNEIL ARMSTRONG: To go where no chicken has gone before. That's one small step for Chicken, one giant leap for Chicken kind.\n\nDARWIN: Chickens, over great periods of time, have been naturally selected in such a way that they are now genetically disposed to cross roads.\n\nNEWTON: The duck suggested to the chicken that they play follow the leader then the duck crossed the road causing the chicken to cross after it, but at the same time holding up traffic, thus proving that for every action here is an equal and opposite reaction.\n\nEINSTEIN: Whether the chicken crossed the road or the road move

BUSH: We don't really care y the chicken crossed the road. We just want to know if the chicken is on our side of the road or not. The chicken is either with us or it is against us. There is no middle ground here.\n\nBILL CLINTON: I did not cross the road with THAT chicken. What do you mean by chicken? Could you define chicken, please?\n\n\nJOHN KERRY: I agree that the chicken should cross the road, but I believe that the chicken should not get to the other side.\n\nJACQUES CHIRAC: The chicken has rights, mais oui? We care not whether the chicken crosses the road since we will claim her eggs regardless of on which side of the road she lays them, n'est pas?\n\nTONY BLAIR: It is clear to Her Majesty's government that the chicken has disguised and hidden her eggs, which, under extraordinary circumstances, particularly on All Hallow's E'en, can certainly be used as weapons of mass destruction\n\nCOLIN POWELL: Now at the left of the screen, you clearly see the satellite image of the chicken crossing the road. As you can see this is not about whether inspectors made sure the chicken crossed the road, it's about the willingness of the chicken to cross the road voluntarily.\n\nSADDAM HUSSEIN: This was an unprovoked act of rebellion and we were quite justified in dropping 50 tons of nerve gas on it.\n\nRONALD REAGAN: What chicken?\n\nSNOOP DOGG: This (censored) fool of a chicken didn't (censored) know what the (censored) he was doin’ crossin’ a (censored) alley in (censored) Harlem at 1:00 in the (censored) mornin’.\n\nNEIL ARMSTRONG: To go where no chicken has gone before. That's one small step for Chicken, one giant leap for Chicken kind.\n\nDARWIN: Chickens, over great periods of time, have been naturally selected in such a way that they are now genetically disposed to cross roads.\n\nNEWTON: The duck suggested to the chicken that they play follow the leader then the duck crossed the road causing the chicken to cross after it, but at the same time holding up traffic, thus proving that for every action here is an equal and opposite reaction.\n\nEINSTEIN: Whether the chicken crossed the road or the road move

1040 Checkmate!?

1040 Checkmate!\n\nDOJ Dismisses Felony Tax Prosecution\n-- With Prejudice -- After PRA Defense Raised\n\nEvidence OMB Complicit In Income Tax Fraud\n\nDOJ & IRS Petitioned To Explain\n\n\nOn May 12, 2006 in Peoria, Illinois, the attorney for the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) begged the court to dismiss all charges against IRS victim Robert Lawrence in federal District Court.\n\nThe motion for dismissal came on the heels of a surprise tactic by Lawrence’s defense attorney Oscar Stilley. \n\nThe tactic threatened exposure of IRS’s on-going efforts to defraud the public. The move put DOJ attorneys in a state of panic that left them with only one alternative: beg for dismissal, with prejudice.\n\nStilley’s tactic paid off. Sixty days earlier, the DOJ had indicted Lawrence on three counts of willful failure to file a 1040 form, and three felony counts of income tax evasion. The federal Judge dismissed all charges with prejudice, meaning the DOJ cannot charge Lawrence with those crimes again.\n\nThe trial was to have started on Monday morning, May 15th. \n\nOn Wednesday, May 10, Stilley mailed a set of documents to the DOJ in response to DOJ’s discovery demands. The documents revealed to DOJ for the first time that Lawrence was basing his entire defense on an act of Congress, 44 U.S.C. 3500 – 3520, also known as the "Paperwork Reduction Act" (PRA).\n\nIn Section 3512 of the Act, titled "Public Protection," it says that no person shall be subject to any penalty for failing to comply with an agency’s collection of information request (such as a 1040 form), if the request does not display a valid control number assigned by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in accordance with the requirements of the Act, or if the agency fails to inform the person who is to respond to the collection of information that he is not required to respond to the collection of information request unless it displays a valid control number.\n\nIn Section 3512 Congress went on to authorize that the protection provided by Section 3512 may be raised in the form of a complete defense at any time during an agency’s administrative process (such as an IRS Tax Court or Collection and Due Process Hearing) or during a judicial proceeding (such as Lawrence’s criminal trial).\n\nIn sum, the PRA requires that all government agencies display valid OMB control numbers and certain disclosures directly on all information collection forms that the public is requested to file. Lawrence's sole defense was he was not required to file an IRS Form 1040 because it displays an invalid OMB control number.\n\nGovernment officials knew that if the case went to trial, it would expose the fraudulent, counterfeit 1040. They also must have known that a trial would expose the ongoing conspiracy between OMB and IRS to publish 1040 forms each year that those agencies knew were in violation of the PRA. That would raise the issue that the Form 1040, with its invalid control number, is being used by the Government to cover up the underlying constitutional tort -- that is, the enforcement of a direct, unapportioned tax on the labor of every working man, women and child in America.\n\nAny information collection form, such as IRS Form 1040, which lacks bona fide statutory authority or which conflicts with the Constitution, cannot be issued an OMB control number. If a control number were issued for such a form, the form would be invalid and of no force and effect. \n\nUnder the facts and circumstances of the last 24 years, it is safe to say that IRS Form 1040 is a fraudulent, counterfeit, bootleg form. Government officials responsible for this fraud should be investigated and face indictment for willfully making and sponsoring false instruments. \n\nCaught between a rock and a hard place, the DOJ and IRS decided not to let the Lawrence case proceed because it would reveal one critical and damning fact: \n\nThe PRA law protects those that fail to f

Highly dobut this. First off there is no judge named, and the governments attorney is only refered to as DOJ attorney which is not even the correct method of talking about them. Next you have the fact that this case would have made US headlines. There's nothing about this case I can find anywhere. Next you also have the fact that it states there is no law allowing taxes to be collected. There is numerous laws on this, that despite many challenges have been upheld.\n\nAll in all this isn't even a question and obivously lacks any type of source to make it appear real

where do you believe you really go when you die?

In order to understand death we have to let the Bible speak for itself which is why In the following answer there is a text to back every statement\n\nI was listening to a sermon recently in which the pastor talked about this subject. Talking about death we should look at how life was created \n\nAnd the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. - Genesis 2:7\n\nFrom this we see that the soul is the combination of both the breath of God and the physical body.\n\nSo what happens when you die?\n\n1) In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread till you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; for dust you are, and to dust you shall return.- Genesis 3:19 \n\n2) And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost. - Luke 23:46\n\n3) Then the dust will return to the earth as it was, and the spirit will return to God who gave it. - Ecclesiastes 12:5\nFrom these scriptures we see that when you die the two components of the soul either decay (the physical body) or goes back to God (the spirit)\n\nMany people believe that the spirit is some intangible ghostlike substance but if you look at what the bible says\n\nAll the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils - Job 27:3\n\nFrom this we see that the spirit is the Breath of Life not a … ghost (for lack of a better word)\n\n\n\nDo the dead go directly to heaven or hell?\n\nPsalms 115:17 The dead praise not the Lord. \nPsalms 6:5 In death there is no remembrance of thee. \nIsaiah 38:18 Death can not celebrate thee. \nPsalms 146:4 His thoughts perish.\nJob 21:32 Yet shall he be brought to the grave, and shall remain in the tomb.\nEcclesiastes 9:5 For the living know that they shall die; but the dead do not know anything, nor do they have any more a reward; for their memory is forgotten.\n\nFrom these verses we see that there is no thought in death\n\nSome may argue that these are all Old Testament examples of the teaching of death so let’s look at the New Testament \n\nJesus speaking about the death of Lazarus \nThese things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep. Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well. Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep. Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead. John 11:11-14\n\nMatthew 27:52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose\n\n1 Thessalonians 4:15 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.\n\n1 Thessalonians 4:14 Them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.\n\nIf we look at what Jesus said on the cross in Luke 23:43\nAnd Jesus said to him, Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.\n\nMany use this to prove the point that we go directly to our reward. The problem is in the Greek there was not a comma, the comma was placed centuries later by people who believed that we go directly to our reward. If you move the comma it conforms to the rest of scripture\n\nAnd Jesus said to him, “Assuredly, I say to you today, you will be with Me in Paradise.”\n\nRead what happens on Sunday morning and Jesus tells Mary he did not ascend to heaven yet.\n\nBut doesn’t the Bible say to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord?\n\nAs I mentioned above the Bible says we do not go directly to heaven or hell. I think we should look at 2 Corinthians 5, but rather than only looking at verse 8 lets look at the whole chapter in order to gain better perspective. If you read the whole text we see Paul talking about three states of being. In chapter 1 Paul writes 1) our earthly house {our earthly bodies} 2) a building of God, an hou

Are We God's Playthings and is Free-Choice An Illusion?

If the Christian God is Omnipotent (all-powerful), Omnipresent (everywhere), and Omniscient (all-knowing), then he/she knew that Adam & Eve would sin before he even created them. So, he puts them in a no win situation from the start, and punishes them for it.\n\nAlso, why would God put his precious human creation in the same area as "the serpent?" Hmmm... seems logically deficient.\n\nAnd speaking of Satan, GOD knew when Satan (Lucifer) was first created that he would turn against him. So, either GOD is not truly Omnipotent, or he doesn't really exist, or we are all his lab mice and he/she just loves to mess with our minds. ;)\n\nComments??

I wrote an article related to this... I hope you will take the time to really read it because it covers all the questions that you are asking. I wrote this paper not to accuse others... but to defend my faith in light of statements people ask concerning my faith in light of what I have learned from science. \n\n"Biblical Creationism: Fact or Myth? \nScientific Evidences for Skeptics to Ponder"\n\nDo you know what life is? I believe it's like a science experiment. We're here to find out why we are here. Unless you know a better reason, I'd say, it is to be skeptical and figure things out. \n\nIn case you didn't know; "skeptic" is a Greek word that means "to examine". We need to examine all the evidence and make up our minds what the truth is. I think that a lot of people get college degrees but devote themselves to one particular school of thought. They follow those thoughts without question and enjoy the mutual companionship of their closed group of peers. Most never realize that their grand theories are founded on mere presuppositions that have little to do with the facts.\n\nI think that a lot of people would believe in God right now if He personally appeared to them. If God appeared to anyone, in any form, it would be enough to convince them it was really Him! But then we wouldn't have a choice; no opportunity to grasp love's concepts. God does not want to force us to follow Him; just be willing to make that choice for ourselves!\n\nThink about it; all the ancient religions taught that the universe had no beginning,... but one. Some taught that gods came out of sort of a watery substance and that the earth was made through great upheavals and violence between the gods. A religion is worthless unless it is grounded in scientific facts! If there is such a religion today, then we better find out what the truth is in all this!\n\nI believe the God of the Bible is the most logical explanation for our universe as we know it today. Consider these next few statements of rational logic. First, there has to be a cause for every effect. The universe had to come from something. There is no natural explanation for how the sun, moon, and stars could come from nothing! Therefore, for every effect, there has to be a cause! This Cause has to come from outside the universe; outside of nature. In other words;...supernatural. When I state "supernatural" I mean; a limitless being outside of time and space. Think about it!

Are We God's Playthings and is Free-Choice An Illusion?If the Christian God is Omnipotent (all-powerful), Omnipresent (everywhere), and Omniscient (all-knowing), then he/she knew that Adam & Eve would sin before he even created them. So, he puts them in a no win situation from the start, and punishes them for it.\n\nAlso, why would God put his precious human creation in the same area as "the serpent?" Hmmm... seems logically deficient.\n\nAnd speaking of Satan, GOD knew when Satan (Lucifer) was first created that he would turn against him. So, either GOD is not truly Omnipotent, or he doesn't really exist, or we are all his lab mice and he/she just loves to mess with our minds. ;)\n\nComments??I wrote an article related to this... I hope you will take the time to really read it because it covers all the questions that you are asking. I wrote this paper not to accuse others... but to defend my faith in light of statements people ask concerning my faith in light of what I have learned from science. \n\n"Biblical Creationism: Fact or Myth? \nScientific Evidences for Skeptics to Ponder"\n\nDo you know what life is? I believe it's like a science experiment. We're here to find out why we are here. Unless you know a better reason, I'd say, it is to be skeptical and figure things out. \n\nIn case you didn't know; "skeptic" is a Greek word that means "to examine". We need to examine all the evidence and make up our minds what the truth is. I think that a lot of people get college degrees but devote themselves to one particular school of thought. They follow those thoughts without question and enjoy the mutual companionship of their closed group of peers. Most never realize that their grand theories are founded on mere presuppositions that have little to do with the facts.\n\nI think that a lot of people would believe in God right now if He personally appeared to them. If God appeared to anyone, in any form, it would be enough to convince them it was really Him! But then we wouldn't have a choice; no opportunity to grasp love's concepts. God does not want to force us to follow Him; just be willing to make that choice for ourselves!\n\nThink about it; all the ancient religions taught that the universe had no beginning,... but one. Some taught that gods came out of sort of a watery substance and that the earth was made through great upheavals and violence between the gods. A religion is worthless unless it is grounded in scientific facts! If there is such a religion today, then we better find out what the truth is in all this!\n\nI believe the God of the Bible is the most logical explanation for our universe as we know it today. Consider these next few statements of rational logic. First, there has to be a cause for every effect. The universe had to come from something. There is no natural explanation for how the sun, moon, and stars could come from nothing! Therefore, for every effect, there has to be a cause! This Cause has to come from outside the universe; outside of nature. In other words;...supernatural. When I state "supernatural" I mean; a limitless being outside of time and space. Think about it! The only religion that ever stated otherwise was the biblical concept of Genesis! God always existed, but the universe did not!\n\nSecond, the Cause must be independent of it's effect. It can not be required to depend it's existence upon the universe. For nothing can change from a state of nothingness.\n\nThird, the Cause must be infinitely powerful! If it were limited, it would have to be confined by some other thing. It can not be limited by nothing and if it were limited, it would not be independent any longer. The effect can not be greater than the cause. The Cause has to be greater than the effect! It has to be greater than all the forces of the universe combined!\n\nFourth, the first Cause must be eternal. The creator must exist outside of time. The God of the Bible stated this in Exodus 3:14 and John 8:58. All the other religions honored harvest gods, war gods, moon gods, sun gods, animal-headed gods, fertility gods and goddesses. In fact, most of these gods were restricted to time as well as location. (1)\n\nFifth, the first Cause must be spiritual. Only an entity outside the universe could have created it. It must be beyond the physical elements. John 4:24 states that God is Spirit.\n\nSixth, the first Cause must be all-knowing. The creator created the universe.

My proof that Jesus is the Son Of G--?

Love one another as I love you. Only then, will people know that you are my disciples. Why argue?\nIf Jesus is G-- or of G--, does it change your Faith in Jesus? If the Holy Spirit is G-- or of G-- does it change your Faith in the Holy Spirit? \nSharing is Caring...Jesus is Alive!?\nI would like to share my story with any Christian or non-Christian who is still struggling and faith is not all together there. \n\nI hold G-- to the highest, and to lie would be not only against what I believe, but against G--'s laws. Nothing here is a lie, although it might seem like it. This is the reason I type this. G-- bless you all.\n\nI am 30 years old. I am a mathematics teacher. Since the day I was born I was Catholic. I never practiced it, and Catholic was simply a family label. I considered myself Atheist for 30 years until that day in March, I believe. I was painting my Mom's house. The face of Jesus appeared before my Mom and I. She asked me, "what does this look like to you?" But, before she finished the question I KNEW IT WAS HIM. The long hair, the beard, mustash, garments. Similar to the "Jesus" from "passion of the christ," except the eyes. Those eyes cannot be described. They translated into love, love, and love. If I had to describe them, I would say that the closest to that has been Mother Teresa's eyes. Not to take anything from her, but still, only close.\nI thought that had changed me, but it didn't. It did start me off though. But, now as I researched and spent countless hours learning more about him, I started hating Jews and easily angered at anyone who spoke against Jesus. It had actually made me a worse person.\nAs I stuggled one morning with Currency Trading, he appeared again on the cabinet drawers of my room. He faded and came back over and over until He appeared very clear and said to me: WHY DO YOU WORRY ABOUT THINGS FROM THIS WORLD?" I think he said it two or three times. I started crying, as am right now. This was the first time that Faith came into my heart. \nMy life started changing, slowly. Same struggles, but different attitude and determination. I prayed day and night and went to Church. But, the real test, is the acts. "YOU WILL BE JUDGED ACCORDING TO YOUR WORKS" is one of my favorites. \nIn one of the Churches he said to me: "YOU ARE MARKED WITH MY BLOOD." I told my Mom and tried to make sense of it. \nThe last thing that he told me was: "I AM NOT YOUR FATHER. I AM YOUR BROTHER. THE SON DOES NOT EXIST WITHOUT THE FATHER, BUT WITHOUT THE SON THE FATHER IS ALWAYS."\nAt moments I wonder if it was all just in my imagination. This is the mistake that I keep making for this is where my Faith is tested. \nNo matter what, I am a better person for it. I love G-- with all my heart now, and I could never go back. Nothing in this world could ever shake or disturb my Faith. Finding G-- will always be a win-win situation. Now, I live everyday to make G-- proud of me and in the process I fulfill my obligations as human and husband.\nI know that I should be doing more for G--'s glory. I am shy, but will soon find the strength and power to glorify him more and more.

I say to you, the problem I always made was that I thought too much and searched for contradictions here and there so that I could justify myself. But, if you think with your heart the truth will always ccome to you. \n\n~ADIOS~ \n\nI am not here to tell you to quit your religion for they all share the great love that Jesus proclaimed. Be just, compassionate, humble and love G-- with all your heart. Share his glory by doing and not saying.

Why do you keep posting this same story? Don't you have something more to say? Are we all supposed to read this fallacy, and say to ourselves "oh, well that's different! I believe now!" I still maintain you fell off the ladder and bumped your head.

I say to you, the problem I always made was that I thought too much and searched for contradictions here and there so that I could justify myself.

I am God. If you have faith in me you go to heaven. If you test me you don't have faith. Do you believe?

This morning there was a knock at my door. When I answered the door I found a well groomed, nicely dressed couple. The man spoke first:\n\nJohn: "Hi! I'm John, and this is Mary."\n\nMary: Hi! We're here to invite you to come kiss Hank's *** with us."\n\nMe: "Pardon me?! What are you talking about? Who's Hank, and why would I want to kiss His ***?"\n\nJohn: "If you kiss Hank's ***, He'll give you a million dollars; and if you don't, He'll kick the **** out of you."\n\nMe: "What? Is this some sort of bizarre mob shake-down?"\n\nJohn: "Hank is a billionaire philanthropists. Hank built this town. Hank owns this town. He can do whatever he wants, and what He wants is to give you a million dollars, but He can't until you kiss his ***."\n\nMe: "That doesn't make any sense. Why..."\n\nMary: "Who are you to question Hank's gift? Don't you want a million dollars? Isn't it worth a little kiss on the ***?"\n\nMe: "Well maybe, if it's legit, but..."\n\nJohn: "Then come kiss Hank's *** with us."\n\nMe: "Do you kiss Hank's *** often?"\n\nMary: "Oh yes, all the time..."\n\nMe: "And has He given you a million dollars?"\n\nJohn: "Well no. You don't actually get the money until you leave town."\n\nMe: "So why don't you just leave town now?"\n\nMary: "You can't leave until Hank tells you to, or you don't get the money, and He kicks the **** out of you."\n\nMe: "Do you know anyone who kissed Hank's ***, left town, and got the million dollars?"\n\nJohn: "My mother kissed Hank's *** for years. She left town last year, and I'm sure she got the money."\n\nMe: "Haven't you talked to her since then?"\n\nJohn: "Of course not, Hank doesn't allow it."\n\nMe: "So what makes you think He'll actually give you the money if you've never talked to anyone who got the money?"\n\nMary: "Well, he gives you a little bit before you leave. Maybe you'll get a raise, maybe you'll win a small lotto, maybe you'll just find a twenty-dollar bill on the street."\n\nMe: "What's that got to do with Hank?"\n\nJohn: "Hank has certain 'connections.'"\n\nMe: "I'm sorry, but this sounds like some sort of bizarre con game."\n\nJohn: "But it's a million dollars, can you really take the chance?

(CHRISTIANS ONLY PLEASE) Do you accept the Blessed Virgin Mary as the Mother of God? Why or Why not?

Why do we say "Blessed Virgin Mary"??\n\nLuke 1:48 - "all generations will call me blessed"\nLuke 1:27 - "and the virgin's name was Mary"\n\n*** SOMETHING TO CONSIDER WHEN YOU ANSWER ***\n\nDo you get offended when someone insults YOUR Mother? \n\nDon't you think Jesus, who was 100% God and 100% human, gets offended when someone insults His Mother???\n\n*************** Please don't insult Jesus' Mother *****************

Of course I accept the Blessed Virgin as Mother of God.\n\nAside from what you have mentioned in Luke, in Psalm 103, we pray, "Bless the Lord, O you his angels, you mighty ones who do his word, hearkening to the voice of his word! Bless the Lord, all his hosts, his ministers that do his will!" (Ps. 103:20-21). And in Psalm 148 we pray, "Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord from the heavens, praise him in the heights! Praise him, all his angels, praise him, all his host!" (Ps. 148:1-2) \n\nNot only do those in heaven pray with us, they also pray for us. In Revelation, John sees that "the twenty-four elders [the leaders of the people of God in heaven] fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and with golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints" (Rev. 5:8). Thus the saints in heaven offer to God the prayers of the saints on earth. \n\nAngels do the same thing: "[An] angel came and stood at the altar [in heaven] with a golden censer; and he was given much incense to mingle with the prayers of all the saints upon the golden altar before the throne; and the smoke of the incense rose with the prayers of the saints from the hand of the angel before God" (Rev. 8:3-4). \n\nJesus himself warned us not to mess with small children because their guardian angels have guaranteed intercessory access to the Father: "See that you do not despise one of these little ones; for I tell you that in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father who is in heaven." (Matt. 18:10). \n\nBecause he is the only God-man, Jesus is the only Mediator between man and God (1 Tim. 2:5), but this in no way means we cannot or should not ask our fellow Christians to pray with us and for us (1 Tim. 2:1-4), including those Christians in heaven, who have already had their sanctification completed, for "[t]he prayer of a righteous man has great power in its effects" (Jas. 5:16).\n\nJesus obeyed the fourth commandment to honor Father and Mother, for He went down to Nazareth and was even subject to them. If He honored her, we can and should imitate Him. God Himself has honored her so greatly. For anyone to say: I reject her, will not honor her, would be an affront to His judgment.\n\nSimilarly, we should honor and imitate those men and women who were outstanding in serving God during their earthly lives, just as God now honors them in heaven.\n\n----\n\nDo Catholics worship Mary and the Saints? Protestants often claim that. But let us examine the command of Our Lord: "Judge Not". We must distinguish two things:\n\na) the objective rating of an action, e.g., murder is gravely sinful. We can say this independently of the interior dispositions of anyone who does it. If I see someone put a gun to another's head and pull the trigger, it is not "judging" to say I saw murder.\n\nb) The interior dispositions of the sinner--here we must not judge, for at least in general, we cannot know much if anything of the interior. It is to this that the Gospel command applies.\n\nTherefore, as to Marian devotion:\n\na) the forms it takes, such asking her to intercede with her Son, lighting candles, etc.--these are not in themselves worship. What of the eternal flame at the grave of President Kennedy?\n\nb) The interior attitudes of Catholics: to insist they mean it to be worship, i.e, the kind of honor due to God alone--this is simply rash judgment, and is forbidden by "Judge not." So those who make the charge are violating the Gospel precept. The same holds true, of course for devotion to all the saints.

Thessalonians 4?

The Coming of the Lord \n\n 15According to the Lord's own word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left till the coming of the Lord, will certainly not go before those who have fallen asleep. 16For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. \n\nThis means the that previous people that have died are not in heaven yet right?

Abraham and Ishmael/Isaac....Something that i don't understand?

It's common Knowledge that Ishmael and Isaac was the 1st two sons of Abraham. In the Bible God tells Abraham 'to take his ONLY son Isaac....'. But we know that Isaac was never the ONLY son of Abraham. God acknowledge Ishmael as Abraham's son and God made Ishmael part of His covenent(he was circumsised). God also PROMISED Abraham that he will create a powerfull nation from Ishmael.\nHagar was Abraham's wife even if she was a slave.\n\nSo why, according to christianity, wasn't it Ishmael that was the one on the altar, to be 'sacrificed'? This is where I agree with islam, God would never have called Isaac Abraham's ONLY son!\nIf the Bible said 'Take your son' Isaac...' then it would make sense.\n\nOh and what nations came out of Abraham's other sons, which he had by Ketura, his third wife?

It has to do with the divine covenant between God and Abraham with Sarah. Not between Abraham and Hagar. As Ishmael was Abraham's son, he was not part of the covenant though he did too get blessings. So to say, "your only son" Gen. 22: 1,2 was only referring to the son of the covenant between Sarah and Abraham. God promised that a "great nation" would come from Abraham, through Sarah - who at the time was barren. God then concluded a formal covenant over animal sacrifices with Abraham, and at the same time, he revealed that Abraham’s offspring would be afflicted for a period of 400 years, even being taken into slavery.—Ge 15:7-21, which happened through his sons. \n\nIn 1919 B.C.E., when Abraham was 99 years old, as a sign or seal to testify to the special covenant relationship existing between himself and Abraham, God commanded that all the males of Abraham’s household be circumcised. At the same time God changed his name from Abram to Abraham, “because a father of a crowd of nations I will make you.” (Ge 17:5, 9-27; Ro 4:11) Soon after, three materialized angels, whom Abraham received hospitably in the name of Jehovah, (Psalms 83:18) promised that Sarah herself would conceive and give birth to a son, yes, within the coming year!—Ge 18:1-15.\n\nAnd what an eventful year it proved to be! Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed. Abraham’s nephew and his two daughters barely escaped. A famine drove Abraham and his wife to Gerar, only to have the king of that Philistine city take Sarah for his harem. Jehovah God intervened; Sarah was released; and at the appointed time, 1918 B.C.E., Isaac, the long-promised heir, was born when Abraham was 100 years old and Sarah was 90. (Ge 18:16–21:7) Five years later, when Isaac’s 19-year-old half brother Ishmael poked fun at him, Abraham was compelled to dismiss Ishmael and his mother Hagar.

(Ge 16:16; 21:5) Five years after that, in 1913 B.C.E., on the day of Isaac’s being weaned, Ishmael was caught “poking fun” at his younger half brother. (Ge 21:8, 9) This was no innocent child’s play on the part of Ishmael. Rather, as implied by the next verse in the account, it may have involved a taunting of Isaac over heirship. The apostle Paul says these events were “a symbolic drama” and shows that the mistreatment of Isaac by the half-blooded Egyptian Ishmael was persecution. Hence, this was the beginning of the foretold 400 years of Israel’s affliction that ended with deliverance from Egyptian bondage in 1513 B.C.E.—Ga 4:22-31; Ge 15:13; Ac 7:6.\n\n“Furthermore, Abraham again took a wife,” Keturah, and thereafter fathered six additional sons, so that from Abraham sprang not only the Israelites, Ishmaelites, and Edomites but also Medanites, Midianites, and others.

(Ge 25:7-10) Prior to his death Abraham gave gifts to the sons of his secondary wives and sent them away, so that Isaac would be the sole heir of “everything he had.”—Ge 25:5, 6.\n\nSorry that this is long, but I hope it helps to answer your question!

Abraham and Ishmael/Isaac....Something that i don't understand?It's common Knowledge that Ishmael and Isaac was the 1st two sons of Abraham. In the Bible God tells Abraham 'to take his ONLY son Isaac....'. But we know that Isaac was never the ONLY son of Abraham. God acknowledge Ishmael as Abraham's son and God made Ishmael part of His covenent(he was circumsised). God also PROMISED Abraham that he will create a powerfull nation from Ishmael.\nHagar was Abraham's wife even if she was a slave.\n\nSo why, according to christianity, wasn't it Ishmael that was the one on the altar, to be 'sacrificed'? This is where I agree with islam, God would never have called Isaac Abraham's ONLY son!\nIf the Bible said 'Take your son' Isaac...' then it would make sense.\n\nOh and what nations came out of Abraham's other sons, which he had by Ketura, his third wife?It has to do with the divine covenant between God and Abraham with Sarah. Not between Abraham and Hagar. As Ishmael was Abraham's son, he was not part of the covenant though he did too get blessings. So to say, "your only son" Gen. 22: 1,2 was only referring to the son of the covenant between Sarah and Abraham. God promised that a "great nation" would come from Abraham, through Sarah - who at the time was barren. God then concluded a formal covenant over animal sacrifices with Abraham, and at the same time, he revealed that Abraham’s offspring would be afflicted for a period of 400 years, even being taken into slavery.—Ge 15:7-21, which happened through his sons. \n\nIn 1919 B.C.E., when Abraham was 99 years old, as a sign or seal to testify to the special covenant relationship existing between himself and Abraham, God commanded that all the males of Abraham’s household be circumcised. At the same time God changed his name from Abram to Abraham, “because a father of a crowd of nations I will make you.” (Ge 17:5, 9-27; Ro 4:11) Soon after, three materialized angels, whom Abraham received hospitably in the name of Jehovah, (Psalms 83:18) promised that Sarah herself would conceive and give birth to a son, yes, within the coming year!—Ge 18:1-15.\n\nAnd what an eventful year it proved to be! Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed. Abraham’s nephew and his two daughters barely escaped. A famine drove Abraham and his wife to Gerar, only to have the king of that Philistine city take Sarah for his harem. Jehovah God intervened; Sarah was released; and at the appointed time, 1918 B.C.E., Isaac, the long-promised heir, was born when Abraham was 100 years old and Sarah was 90. (Ge 18:16–21:7) Five years later, when Isaac’s 19-year-old half brother Ishmael poked fun at him, Abraham was compelled to dismiss Ishmael and his mother Hagar. It was then, in 1913 B.C.E., that the 400 years of affliction upon Abraham’s offspring began.—Ge 21:8-21; 15:13; Ga 4:29.\n\nTo back track a bit - A year later Isaac was born; Ishmael was now 14. (Ge 16:16; 21:5) Five years after that, in 1913 B.C.E., on the day of Isaac’s being weaned, Ishmael was caught “poking fun” at his younger half brother.

Would you put a pet above a partner if you had the pet first and disregard thier own pet?

say you had a well loved pet and then met that someone special and after a while, asked that someone to move in with you. Would you put that pet above your partner and at the same time, ask that partner to find a new home for thier beloved pet if your pet was in it's last days of life?

Proof of George Bush's IQ compared to other Presidents?

President G. W. Bush was rated the lowest of all the Republicans with an IQ of 91. The six Democrat presidents had IQs with an average of 156, with President Clinton having the highest IQ, at 182.

Why did God create woman to be a mans help mate and not man for man or woman for woman help mates?

Look up in the Bible and read under Genisis, as a point through a hetrosexual, I would hope to think that humanity has fallen an its ass, cause of the world is in turmoil cause of the gay and lesbian sinning in this world. God did not say for man to stick his penis into anyother man besides a woman.0

Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. \nI have learned a great deal from you, and I try to share that knowledge \nwith as many people as I can. \nI do need some advice from you, however, regarding some other specific \nBiblical laws and how to follow them.\n\na) When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a \npleasing odor for the Lord (Lev. 1:9). The problem is my neighbors. \nThey claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?\n\nb) I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in \nExodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price \nfor her?\n\nc) I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her \nperiod of menstrual uncleanness (Lev.15:19-24). The problem is, how do I tell? \nI have tried asking, but most women take offense. If I come into contact with \na woman who is menstruating and she doesn't tell me until afterwards, must I \nkill her immediately or can I just beat her?\n\nd) Lev. 25:44 states that I may indeed possess slaves, both male and female, \nprovided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims\nthat this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify? \nWhy can't I own Canadians?\n\ne) I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 \nclearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill \nhim myself? Also, is Sabbath on Saturday as Seventh Day Adventists \n(Christians, like us...or are they?) or is it on Sunday as Baptists and \nsome other faiths agree? I am beset by not knowing who to kill and when \nto kill them...please clarify this for me.\n\nf) A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination\n (Lev. 11:10), it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality (Lev. 18:22). \nI don't agree. I'm also confused about how homosexuality can be an abomination \nwhen Jonathan and David were married in the Bible (1 Samuel 18:1, 3 - 4). \nHere, I'll quote it - "And it came to pass, when he had made an end of \nspeaking unto Saul that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David \nand Jonathan loved him as his own soul. Then Jonathan and David made a \ncovenant, because he loved him as his own soul. And Jonathan stripped himself\nof the robe that was upon him, and gave it to David, and his garments, even \nto his sword and to his bow and to his girdle." and also Ruth's relationship \nwith Naomi is suspect, (Ruth 1:16-17) "And Ruth said to Naomi, Entreat me not \nto leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thou goest, \nI will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, \nand thy God my God: Where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried: \nthe Lord do so to me, and more also, if ought but death part three and me.\n" Can you settle this?\n\ng) Lev. 21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a \ndefect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear reading glasses. Does my \nvision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle room here?\n\nh) Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around \ntheir temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev.19:27 and even \nthough 1st Cor. 11:4-6 says that it is a shame upon a man to have long hair. \nHow should they die?\n\ni) I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me \nunclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves? Also, since it is \nstrictly forbidden to "eat neither fat nor blood" in Lev. 3:17 & Lev. 19:26, \ndoes that mean that I must be a vegetarian and must I smite those who choose \nto eat meat?\n\nj) My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev. 19:19 by planting two different \ncrops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing garments made of two \ndifferent kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse \nand blaspheme a lot. Is i

In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price \nfor her?\n\nc) I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her \nperiod of menstrual uncleanness (Lev.15:19-24). The problem is, how do I tell? \nI have tried asking, but most women take offense. If I come into contact with \na woman who is menstruating and she doesn't tell me until afterwards, must I \nkill her immediately or can I just beat her?\n\nd) Lev. 25:44 states that I may indeed possess slaves, both male and female, \nprovided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims\nthat this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify? \nWhy can't I own Canadians?\n\ne) I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 \nclearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill \nhim myself? Also, is Sabbath on Saturday as Seventh Day Adventists \n(Christians, like us...or are they?) or is it on Sunday as Baptists and \nsome other faiths agree? I am beset by not knowing who to kill and when \nto kill them...please clarify this for me.\n\nf) A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination\n (Lev. 11:10), it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality (Lev. 18:22). \nI don't agree. I'm also confused about how homosexuality can be an abomination \nwhen Jonathan and David were married in the Bible (1 Samuel 18:1, 3 - 4). \nHere, I'll quote it - "And it came to pass, when he had made an end of \nspeaking unto Saul that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David \nand Jonathan loved him as his own soul. Then Jonathan and David made a \ncovenant, because he loved him as his own soul. And Jonathan stripped himself\nof the robe that was upon him, and gave it to David, and his garments, even \nto his sword and to his bow and to his girdle." and also Ruth's relationship \nwith Naomi is suspect, (Ruth 1:16-17) "And Ruth said to Naomi, Entreat me not \nto leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thou goest, \nI will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, \nand thy God my God: Where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried: \nthe Lord do so to me, and more also, if ought but death part three and me.\n" Can you settle this?\n\ng) Lev. 21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a \ndefect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear reading glasses. Does my \nvision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle room here?\n\nh) Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around \ntheir temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev.19:27 and even \nthough 1st Cor. 11:4-6 says that it is a shame upon a man to have long hair. \nHow should they die?\n\ni) I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me \nunclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves? Also, since it is \nstrictly forbidden to "eat neither fat nor blood" in Lev. 3:17 & Lev. 19:26, \ndoes that mean that I must be a vegetarian and must I smite those who choose \nto eat meat?\n\nj) My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev. 19:19 by planting two different \ncrops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing garments made of two \ndifferent kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse \nand blaspheme a lot. Is i

How do you deal with Midlife Crisis? What do u do when suddenly u r negative for all things?

Was married for 12yrs, tried to seek attention from my hb, but he was always too busy with the television, @ work, or sleep. I thought I have found happiness with a guy that could provide me with attention, love, etc, turned out he was a control jealous freak. Now I am divorced, lonely, empty, feeling negative about everything. What to do? There's nothing to look fwd to anymore. Pls help

This is a very long answer! I am sorry, but I had to write this! Bear with me....\n\nAs a woman who is 50 and who went through her own mid life crisis (and divorce and self reinvention) over the last ten years and who felt very much as you do now, I would like to share some things that helped me to get out of negative self talk. I have learned how to view mid life as a wonderful time of growth, which got me out of a bad mind set.\n\nHon, the first mistake you are making is defining yourself and your personal value on whether or not you have a boyfriend or husband. You are not unique in this mindset. I did the same thing, but no one defines us or determines our self worth and value, EXCEPT ourselves. Thinking that a man will define your self worth and your placement in this world will only serve to make you depressed and feel as alone as you do now. The only person who defines you and your self worth is YOU. No one else can do this. Instead of thinking that someone else is responsible for definining you, LOOK WITHIN. You are a unique individual, with your own skills, gifts, ideas, mind and thoughts that make you who you are. If you only seek out men to define and complete you, you will feel alone, as you do now. You feel alone and empty because you are not looking within yourself to find the things that you possess to bring you self nurturance and self love - to define the woman you are now.\n\nMost women define and value themselves as complete when they have a boyfriend or husband because we are socialized by our families and the media to believe this is the case. We are taught that to be of value we must achieve the ultimate goal in life: to get married, have a family, own a house, and so forth. Those of us who decide to have a career, in addition to marriage, are taught that having "it all" makes us more worthy. If we choose not to marry or have kids, then something is wrong with us (although this is changing, thank god). If we wind up getting divorced, we are viewed as being failures and that because our marriages failed, we are not capable of having a relationship or worse, something is wrong with us. Married friends may shun us (or not), family members query us about whether or not we are dating, or if we will ever remarry, and as a consequence, we feel anxious and apart from society. We feel as if we are outsiders looking in. When we believe this, we feel lost.\n\nDivorce is hard, especially when you are in your mid forties and going through perimenopause. That adds to the confusion and the negative feelings we have. With hormones rising and falling, we feel different and are different in many ways. It is a time, generally - and without divorce - of questioning and assessing our lives, what we have accomplished or didn't, what we want to do in the future, and what changes we want to make. We fear aging and growing older, and dying too young or too soon. We fear the changes our bodies are going through. Our looks change somewhat and we feel old, ugly, less attractive. Even though this is a scary and a weird time in our lives, we needn't feel this way. Experience and wisdom comes with age, and even if our bodies are not as firm as they once were, and even if we gain a bit of weight or have tons of gray hair, we are still beautiful. I feel better and more beautiful NOW than I did in my twenties and thirties! I may not be as thin as I was, but that is okay - I accept and honor the woman I am now. I receive the beauty I possess now with welcome arms and more confidence than I ever had before. Why? I accept the woman I am today. It gets better, really and you CAN GET THROUGH IT. \n\nSome suggestions: One of the best things I ever did when I got divorced was to go to therapy with a psychologist who specialized in divorce. She also held a weekly group session (for an hour an a half) with her other female clients (6 or 7 of us) and we worked together on finding our paths AND releasing our hurt, and anger towa

Anti-creationists: Do you ever get tired of arguing the facts of evolution with poorly educated theists?

Home remedies in aiding Eczema ........?

My daughter has Eczema and she has a small break out every now and then. Usually when I take her to the doctor they give her a cream similar to hydrocortisone or Cortaid. I was told by a friend of the family that those creams have steroids in them and can also thin your skin with excessive use. Well my daughter has had this on going break out for the 6 months off and on and I think that her body has become immune to the creams prescribed by the doctor and the over the counter creams don't seem to work anymore. I know there has to be something all natural that I can use for her. Maybe something that I can even make at home. If anyone knows.............PLEASE HELP. I would greatly appreciate it.

I have atopic dermatitis,the medical name for eczema and I have had it for 40 + years.Here is some advice:\n\n1.Flare ups can take time to heal.Medications keep the flare ups from getting too out of hand.My worst flare up was on my hands.I had the rash on my hands for four years;I was unsder doctor's care the whole time.\n\n2.There is no cure for eczema,only treatments. Forget all-natural "cures" because they DO NOT WORK!!(Remember,I've had this condition for over 40 years;I know from experience that \n"natural" and "hypoallergenic" doesn't mean that they are good choices for atopic skin).Having sensitive skin means that certain products,natural or not,can cause allergic reactions in the skin .\n\n3.Get rid of all soaps,all scented products.Soaps are drying,period.Drying ingredients exacerbate the itch,which leads to scratching,whick breaks the skin,which causes the oozing,redness... The most important thing that you can do is keep the skin from getting too dry.Cleaning with Cetaphil Lotion Cleanser,or Cetaphil Bar cleanser,keeps the skin from losing too much moisture.After cleaning up,a moisturizing cream is to be applied.Cetaphil makes an excellent cream mosturizer.Some people like Eucerin cream.Water is an irritant to atopic skin,so try not to wash hands a lot;Cetaphil can be used without water,you just put it on,"lather up" and repeat,then wipe off the cleaner.\n\n4. Cortaid with moisturizers works just as well as any prescription medication.I've used prescription hydrocortisone cream,Lidex and Prednisone(not recommended,because it lasts for as long as you take it,then you are left with the rash and the side effects of the steroid).I also tried Protopic and luckily hated it;it burned so I didn't use it.I say luckily because Protopic and Elidel,the newest drugs are under investigation for causing an increased risk of skin cancer.Just remember that some flare ups last for a long time(my worst lasted for four years).Being patient is one of the hardest things to do but it is something that a person with atopic dermatitis must have.\n\n5. Aveeno makes some great products for itchy,sensitive skin.Aveeno Bath Powder with Colloidal Oatmeal and Aveeno Bath and Shower Oil with Colloidal Oatmeal are fantastic.\n\n6.The weepy form of eczema can be soothed with wet dressings made with Bluborro powder.The Bluborro will dry the ooze so you can deal with the rash.\n\n7.Stay away from Vaseline,any product that contains lanolin,benzocaine,aha or sugar acids,retinols,any greasy preparation,or any cream that contains an antihistamine(oral antihistamines are okay,just not in a cream or lotion that goes directly on the skin).\n\n8.Having excema even has an effect on the clothes that can be worn.Dermatologists prefer that their patients wear cottons and soft,natural fibers.Polyester retains perspiration which can cause problems.The soft moisture-wicking fabrics are okay.Wool is to be lined or a person will have to wear a soft layer underneath the wool(t-shirts,camisoles,pantliners)so it doesn't touch the skin and make the skin itch.Fabric detergents and fabric softeners used to clean clothes have to be unscented.\n\n9.Educate yourself.I started reading up on skin conditions as a teenager.Dermatologists often write books with advice on how to deal with certain conditions.I'll list them in the sources.\n\n10 Eczema,allergies and asthma often go hand-in-hand.An antihistamine is to be taken to deal with this.\n\n11. My doctor said to avoid doing any wet work if at all possible(no doing dishes,no washing the car,et c.).If wet work couldnot be avoided,cotton gloves worn under rubber gloves had to be worn;the cotton gloves are available in the beauty sections of pharmacies.Lined rubber gloves are not good enough.

Aveeno makes some great products for itchy,sensitive skin.Aveeno Bath Powder with Colloidal Oatmeal and Aveeno Bath and Shower Oil with Colloidal Oatmeal are fantastic.\n\n6.The weepy form of eczema can be soothed with wet dressings made with Bluborro powder.The Bluborro will dry the ooze so you can deal with the rash.\n\n7.Stay away from Vaseline,any product that contains lanolin,benzocaine,aha or sugar acids,retinols,any greasy preparation,or any cream that contains an antihistamine(oral antihistamines are okay,just not in a cream or lotion that goes directly on the skin).\n\n8.Having excema even has an effect on the clothes that can be worn.Dermatologists prefer that their patients wear cottons and soft,natural fibers.Polyester retains perspiration which can cause problems.The soft moisture-wicking fabrics are okay.Wool is to be lined or a person will have to wear a soft layer underneath the wool(t-shirts,camisoles,pantliners)so it doesn't touch the skin and make the skin itch.Fabric detergents and fabric softeners used to clean clothes have to be unscented.\n\n9.Educate yourself.I started reading up on skin conditions as a teenager.Dermatologists often write books with advice on how to deal with certain conditions.I'll list them in the sources.\n\n10 Eczema,allergies and asthma often go hand-in-hand.An antihistamine is to be taken to deal with this.\n\n11. My doctor said to avoid doing any wet work if at all possible(no doing dishes,no washing the car,et c.).If wet work couldnot be avoided,cotton gloves worn under rubber gloves had to be worn;the cotton gloves are available in the beauty sections of pharmacies.Lined rubber gloves are not good enough.

If you are looking for the first breakaway from the Catholic religion, it wasn't the Protestants that hold that distinction, but Islam, then the Eastern Orthodox. The East-West Schism, known also as the Great Schism (though this latter term sometimes refers to the later Western Schism), was the event that divided Chalcedonian Christianity into Western Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy. Though normally dated to 1054, the East-West Schism was actually the result of an extended period of estrangement between the two Churches. The primary causes of the Schism were disputes over papal authority—the Pope claimed he held authority over the four Eastern patriarchs, while Eastern Orthodox today claim that the primacy of the Patriarch of Rome was only honorary, and thus he had authority only over Western Christians—and over the insertion of the filioque clause into the Nicene Creed.

How can someone be born gay?

God would not do that to you.He would not at all make things like that.The devil loves children he loves each and everyone of them.So that means he can do all kinds of weird things to your mind and make you grow up saying that your gay.He targets little children because they don't know right from wrong,and he wants to get them at an eairly age because they grow up the rest of theire natural lives thinking that.But you have to watch out because the devil plays dirty tricks.So god did'nt make yall that way the devil did.Because most of them blame god.But one day hopefully they will wake up and smell the coffe and say,Im listening to the devils words each and every day!!

Before answering that question -- you do realize that Satan was and is, to Judaism -- the progenitor faith of Christianity "the Advesary" NOT the advesary of humans, no, the advesary of G-d -- and his position is actually within the heavenly court. He's SUPPOSED to challenge G-d.\n\nThe title Devil came later, and actually means "little god" or something like that -- its been almost 20 years since I took that course.\n\nNow that said. Your question is really primarily theological. What you are really asking is how can God allow anyone to be born gay. You make a presumption that very few Christians would -- that the Devil can effect a preborn infant. You are welcome to your diverse theological construct however. I'm going to answer the question you actually asked, rather than the one you meant to ask, I think, then I'll speak briefly to your theology.\n\nHow can someone be born gay?\n\nIn a word, genetics. there is a great deal of scientific evidence that it is inborn. Beyond scientific evidence there is anectodal evidence.\n\nThe fruit fly study is actually fairly conclusive. But the pheremonal and eye blink studies are also compelling. I've included links below for those that are interested. Beyond that, research increasingly suggests that at least for males, X28 is the crucial gene. I am saddened by this, because I believe that once it is proven, gay people will be wiped out -- and I think that is sad, because given the number of species in which homosexuality exists (see Dr. Bruce Bagemihl's book "Biological Exuberance" from St. Martin's Press) I think it serves a purpose.\n\nNow as to the theology behind your question: The Bible speaks out directly about a lot of things. It says that the world has corners (Isaiah 11:12) and that it sets on pillars (I Samuel 2:8). It says that God accepted a human sacrifice -- he may have prevented Isaacs, but he allowed a general to sacrifice his own daughter without even a murmer, the text giving tacit support to the idea that having given his word, the man had to kill his child. (Judges 11:30-39). The Bible clearly maintains that genocide is often commanded by God (Joshua 10:40-42 and I Samuel 15: 2, 3 and 8) and that, after killing all the adults in a race, taking the female children as sex slaves is permissable (Numbers 31: 17-18).\n\nThe God revealed by the Bible is not only both a liar who doesn't know the natural laws of his own world, and a monster, as shown above -- but he has no real regard, even for his own people, whom he forces into cannibalism (Leviticus 26: 27-29) when he is mad at them; or his priests, whose faces he wipes with dung (Malachi 2:1-3).\n\nIt is not only gays and lesbians that are hated by biblegod. This monstrocity also suggests killing kids who eat or drink too much (Deutoronomy 21: 18-21), and says that if he is angry with parents he will kill their children (Leviticus 26:22) and he blames things upon children whose great-great-great grandfather committed the things being blamed on the kids (Exodus 20: 5)\n\nPutting it in a word, biblegod is a monstrocity, a horrific demiurge of evil. Something that even he admits ( Isaiah 45:7 ) [Furthermore, the word used in Hebrew for evil, the word ra' is widely conceded to mean a number of different things: It can mean "wickedness," "mischief," "bad," "trouble," "hurt," "sore," "affliction," "ill," "adversity," "harm," "grievous," and "sad." So no matter what particular interpretation is given of this word -- it has profoundly negative implications. The idea that god is sovereign over the affairs of man makes this even worse, because no matter what interpretation it has, it indicates that biblegod deliberately does harm.]; evil about which he sometimes changes his mind (Exodus 32:14). What a font of unchanging moral

How do you write "Guardian of Angels" in Latin or Greek?

I would like to have a tattoo made for myself, written in latin (or greek), which says "Guardian of Angels". It is dedicated to all the women in my life who have made a difference (my mother, sisters, friends, and greatest love), so I would like it to be proper and accurate. By Guardian, I mean one who protects and provides safety/security for those who he watches over. If there is a more accurate Greek (not modern... though I know little of the differences, hence why I am asking) translation, that would work for me as well. This would be a great help to me. Thank you :)

I was struck by the wikipedia article which calls guardian angels Tutelary Angels. I found this passage by Xenophon which describes the Median Tutelary Heroes:\n\nXenophon, Cyropaedia Book 3 Section 3 Line 21\n\nσυμπαρεκάλει δὲ καὶ ἥρωας γη̂ς Μηδίας οἰκήτορας καὶ κηδεμόνας.\n\n“Also he called upon the Heroes of Media, who dwell in the land and guard it.”\n\nΜηδίας κηδεμόνας. Literally means “guardian Medians” or “tutelary Medians”\n\nFor this reason, I believe that the sense of guardian or tutelary can best be described with the Greek word κηδεμόν.\n\nSo the Greek would be o κηδεμόν αγγελων (omicron) (kappa eta delta epsilon omicron nu) (alpha gamma gamma epsilon lambda omega nu)\nThe guardian of angels\nPronounced: Ho Keh Day Mon Ang Gell Own (gell as in G sound in gift not the hair product)\n\nI found more options concerning the Latin and also the exact text by Saint Thomas Aquinas which describes Guardian Angels in Latin:\n\nSaint Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologica\n\nQuestion #113, Reply to Objection 1\n\n“cogitationes mortalium timidae, et incertae providentiae nostrae. Et ideo necessaria fuit homini custodia Angelorum.”\n\n"The thoughts of mortals are fearful, and uncertain is our counsel. And so it is necessary that men are guarded by the angels.”\n\nThe term used is custo, custodis which means a guard, guardian, custodian, watcher, caregiver etc.\n\nI looked up several other terms and found a quote which uses most of them:\n\nCicero, First Oration against Cataline III:8\n\n“sensistisne illam coloniam meo iussu meis praesidiis, custodiis, vigiliis esse munitam?”\n\n“did you not find that that colony was fortified by my decree, my guards, my care, and my watch?”\n\nThe other words are praestes, praestetis (PRY stayz, ) used in a religious sense to mean protector, guardian etc.\n\nWe have curator, curatrix (male and female protector, caregiver, guardian, aid giver, overseer)\n\nProtector, protectrix (obvious definition, male and female versions)\n\nTutor, tutrix (male and female watchers or guardians)\n\nVigila, (watcher, sentinel, nightly watchman)\n\nA tutor in ancient Rome was a slave who guarded a student on his way to and from school. There were no police and night travel was very risky. The slave would learn everything at school that the student did and would help with studies. Eventually the term went from a guardian or protector to the secondary function of a tutor as homework helper. We get the word tutelary from this which is the other term given to guardian angels.\n\nFor the Latin I would choose from\n\nTVTRIX ANGELORVM (TOO trix ang GEL or oom)\nCVRATRIX ANGELORVM (CURE ah trix)\nPRAESTES ANGELORVM (PRY stays)\nCVSTODIA ANGELORVM (coos TOH dee ah) \nCVSTO ANGELORVM\nVIGILA ANGELORVM (WEE gee la)\n\nRoll your R’s like in Spanish\n\n(the letter “U” wasn’t invented for a long time, u,v, and w were all the same letter: “V”)\n\nTo test this out, I would ask away on an online Classics forum like Textkit.com.

Rabbi Ben Ezra\n\nGrow old along with me! \nThe best is yet to be, \nThe last of life, for which the first was made: \nOur times are in his hand \nWho saith, ``A whole I planned, \nYouth shows but half; trust God: see all, nor be afraid!'' \n\nNot that, amassing flowers, \nYouth sighed, ``Which rose make ours, \nWhich lily leave and then as best recall?'' \nNot that, admiring stars, \nIt yearned, ``Nor Jove, nor Mars; \nMine be some figured flame which blends, transcends them all!'' \n\nNot for such hopes and fears \nAnnulling youth's brief years, \nDo I remonstrate: folly wide the mark! \nRather I prize the doubt \nLow kinds exist without, \nFinished and finite clods, untroubled by a spark. \n\nPoor vaunt of life indeed, \nWere man but formed to feed \nOn joy, to solely seek and find and feast; \nSuch feasting ended, then \nAs sure an end to men; \nIrks care the crop full bird? Frets doubt the maw-crammed beast? \n\nRejoice we are allied \nTo that which doth provide \nAnd not partake, effect and not receive! \nA spark disturbs our clod; \nNearer we hold of God \nWho gives, then of his tribes that take, I must believe. \n\nThen, welcome each rebuff \nThat turns earth's smoothness rough, \nEach sting that bids nor sit nor stand but go! \nBe our joys three-parts pain! \nStrive,and hold cheap the strain; \nLearn, nor account the pang; dare, never grudge the throe! \n\nFor thence,--a paradox \nWhich comforts while it mocks,-- \nShall life succeed in that it seems to fail: \nWhat I aspired to be, \nAnd was not, comforts me: \nA brute I might have been, but would not sink i'the scale. \n\nWhat is he but a brute \nWhose flesh has soul to suit, \nWhose spirit works lest arms and legs want play? \nTo man, propose this test-- \nThy body at its best, \nHow far can that project thy soul on its lone way? \n\nYet gifts should prove their use: \nI own the Past profuse \nOf power each side, a perfection every turn: \nEyes, ears took in their dole, \nBrain treasured up the whole; \nShould not the heart beat once ``How good to live and learn''? \n\nNot once beat ``Praise be thine! \nI see the whole design, \nI, who saw power, see now Love perfect too: \nPerfect I call thy plan: \nThanks that I was a man! \nMaker, remake, complete,--I trust what thou shalt do!'' \n\nFor pleasant is this flesh; \nOur soul, in its rose-mesh \nPulled over to the earth, still yearns for rest: \nWould we some prize might hold \nTo match those manifold \nPossessions of the brute,--gain most, as we did best! \n\nLet us not always say, \n``Spite of this flesh to-day \nI strove, made head, gained ground upon the whole!'' \nAs the bird wings and sings, \nLet us cry, ``All good things \nAre ours, nor soul helps flesh more, now, than flesh helps soul!'' \n\nTherefore I summon age \nTo grant youth's heritage, \nLife's struggle having so far reached its term: \nThence shall I pass, approved \nA man, for aye removed \nFrom the developed brute; a God though in the germ. \n\nAnd I shall thereupon \nTake rest, ere I be gone \nOnce more on my adventure brave and new: \nFearless and unperplexed, \nWhen I wage battle next, \nWhat weapons to select, what armor to indue. \n\nYouth ended, I shall try \nMy gain or loss thereby; \nLeave the fire ashes, what survives is gold: \nAnd I shall weigh the same, \nGive life its praise or blame: \nYoung, all lay in dispute; I shall know, being old. \n\nFor note, when evening shuts, \nA certain moment cuts \nThe deed off, calls the glory from the gray: \nA whisper from the west \nShoots--``Add this to the rest, \nTake it and try its worth: here dies another day.'' \n\nSo, still within this life, \nThough lifted o'er its strife, \nLet me discern, compare, pronounce at last, \n``This rage was right i' the main, \nThat acquiescence vain: \nThe Future I may face now I have proved the Past.'' \n\nFor more is not reserved \nTo man, with soul just nerved

I'm looking for a funny love joke to send to my boyfriend.?

Sometimes women are overly suspicious of their husbands. When Adam stayed out very late for a few nights, Eve became upset. \n\n"You're running around with other women," she charged. \n\n"You're being unreasonable," Adam responded. "You're the only woman on earth." The quarrel continued until Adam fell asleep, only to be awakened by someone poking him in the chest. It was Eve. \n\n"What do you think you're doing?" Adam demanded. \n\n"Counting your ribs!"\n\n\nThis husband and wife are staying in a hotel, and after a romantic evening wining and dining they go off to bed. However, as soon as they settled down, the man (not quite ready for slumber) leans over and whispers softly, "Hey snuggle boopy boops, your lickle hubby wubby isn't quite ready for bye-byes yet." \n\nThe wife takes the hint and says, "OK, but I have to use the bathroom first." So off she goes but on her way back she trips over a piece of carpet and lands flat on her face.\n\nHer husband jumps up and exclaims in a concerned tone "Oh my little honey bunny, is your nosey-wosey all right?" \n\nNo harm is done, so she jumps into bed and they have mad passionate sex for three hours. Afterwards, the wife goes off to the bathroom again, but on her way she trips over the same piece of carpet and again lands flat on her face on the floor. \n\nHer husband looks over and grunts "Clumsy b***h."\n\n\nHOW TO SATISFY A WOMAN:\nCaress, praise, pamper, relish, savor, massage, make plans, fix, empathize, serenade, compliment, support, feed, tantalize, bathe, humor, placate, stimulate, jiffylube, stroke, console, purr, hug, coddle, excite, pacify, protect, phone, correspond, anticipate, nuzzle, smooch, toast, minister to, forgive, sacrifice for, ply, accessorize, leave, return, beseech, sublimate, entertain, charm, lug, drag, crawl, show equality for, spackle, oblige, fascinate, attend, implore, bawl, shower, shave, trust, grovel, ignore, defend, coax, clothe, brag about, acquiesce, aromatize, fuse, fizz, rationalize, detoxify, sanctify, help, acknowledge, polish, upgrade, spoil, embrace, accept, butter-up, hear, understand, jitterbug, locomote, beg, plead, borrow, steal, climb, swim, nurse, resuscitate, repair, patch, crazy-glue, respect, entertain, calm, allay, kill for, die for, dream of, promise, deliver, tease, flirt, commit, enlist, pine, cajole, Anglicize, murmur, snuggle, snoozle, snurfle, elevate, enervate, alleviate, spotweld, serve, rub, rib, salve, bite, taste, nibble, gratify, take her places, scuttle like a crab on the ocean floor of her existence, diddle, doodle, hokey-pokey, hanky-panky, crystal blue persuade, flip, flop, fly, don't care if I die, swing, slip, slide, slather, mollycoddle, squeeze, moisturize, humidify, lather, tingle, slam-dunk, keep on rockin' in the free world, wet, slicken, undulate, gelatinize, brush, tingle, dribble, drip, dry, knead, fluff, fold, blue-coral wax, ingratiate, indulge, wow, dazzle, amaze, flabbergast, enchant, idolize and worship, and then go back, and start again. \n\nHOW TO SATISFY A MAN:\nShow up naked with food.\n\n\nA young couple is out carousing one evening. While driving down the highway the guy says to the girl, "If I go 100 miles an hour, will you take off your clothes?"\n\nShe agrees and he begins to speed up. When the speedometer hits 100 she starts to strip. When she gets all her clothes off he is so busy staring at her that he drives off the road and flips the car.\n\nThe girl is thrown clear without a scratch but her clothes and her boyfriend are trapped in the car. "Go get help," he pleads.\n\nShe replies, "I can't! I'm naked."\n\nHe points to his shoe that was thrown clear and says, "Cover your snatch with that and go get help." She takes the shoe, covers herself, and runs to the gas station down the road.\n\nWhen she arrives, she is frantic and yel

i got a new site up how can i get exposure im just open my own online business?

"If you build it, they will come" is not necessarily true on the Web. Putting a website up is one thing, but getting visitors to come to your site is another. The process becomes even more difficult if you have limited resources to market your business.\n\nHere are some shoestring marketing ideas that can help you get the visitors you need at the least cost possible: \n\n1. Create the best content you can with the best products you can possibly offer. Your content is your best advertisement - if visitors love your content, then they will go back and spread the word to others.\n\n2. Make it easy for users to recommend your site. Viral marketing is very important -- and easy to tap on the Web. But give your users the tools. Get a Recommend this Site script from websites such as cgiscripts.com and similar directories of scripts. Some even go as far as giving incentives to those who recommend the site to their friends. If only 10 people go to your site, but these 10 people invite 10 more - that's additional traffic that you get for FREE!\n\nRecommend Site Scripts (various) http://php.resourceindex.com/Complete_Scripts/Website_Promotion/Recommend_Site/\nBig Nose Bird Recommend this Site http://bignosebird.com/carchive/birdcast.shtml \nCGI Resource Index http://cgi.resourceindex.com/Programs_and_Scripts/Perl/Website_Promotion/Recommend_Site/\nHostscripts http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/Site_Recommendation/index.html\n\n3. Rank well in the search engines (organic search results, not the pay per click). SEs can be a big source of traffic. The key is to create the best content in your niche. If you have good content, other websites will gladly link to you and offer your site as a resource to their audience. Check the on-page factors and be sure to get linked from authority sites in your topic area.\n\nIf you are going to read only one piece on search engine optimization, I suggest you read Brett Tabke of WebmasterWorld.com's "Successful Site in 12 Months with Google Alone: 26 steps to 15k a day." http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum3/2010.htm \n\nSEO for Google http://www.powerhomebiz.com/052006/google.htm\nSEO for Yahoo! http://www.powerhomebiz.com/052006/yahoo.htm\nSEO for MSN http://www.powerhomebiz.com/052006/msn.htm\nTying It Together: SEO For The Big Three http://www.powerhomebiz.com/052006/seo.htm\n\n4. Send out press releases. While outfits charge as much as $650 per release, there are free press release submission places on the Web. Press releases allow you to (a) attract media attention; (b) get more back links to your website without sending each website an email request; and (c) get more visibility especially if your press release gets in Google News or Yahoo News. My website (see my profile) accepts free press release submission (no strings attached!)\n\n5. Submit articles. Write articles and submit them to websites accepting author submissions. You get exposure for your business; establishes you as an authority in your field, and allows you to get backlinks for your website. If 50 websites publish your article and it contains a link back to your website, then you easily get 50 links from a single article. The more links you have, the greater your chances for increasing your search engine rankings.\n\nHere is a comprehensive list of where to submit your articles http://answers.yahoo.com/question/;_ylt=AhzreGmnCUicOoyedqypscUjzKIX?qid=1006022407481\n\n6.

Anybody seen a movie called 'Sky Blue' (animation)? Can anybody recommend other animation worth watching?

What a movie! I've never seen anything like it - I saw it purely by chance and absolutely loved it. I've seen the likes of Akira, Ghost in the Shell (even Avalon though it's not animation), but I was wondering if anyone might be able to recommend quality manga/animation to someone new to the format (but someone who is quickly falling in love with it!).

Anybody seen a movie called 'Sky Blue' (animation)? Can anybody recommend other animation worth watching?What a movie! I've never seen anything like it - I saw it purely by chance and absolutely loved it. I've seen the likes of Akira, Ghost in the Shell (even Avalon though it's not animation), but I was wondering if anyone might be able to recommend quality manga/animation to someone new to the format (but someone who is quickly falling in love with it!).

I'm thhinking of setting up a business,can someone give me tips?

Im 16 at the moment, but hopefully going to college to do a Health&Beauty course if i can pass this i get an NVQ, I'm getting driving lesson's for my birthday this december so i have thought about setting up a mobile beauty business.\nI would need a loan from the bank for advertising and product's.\nI'm not sure though weather i should get a business loan or a student loan?\nPlease help with anything you can.\nThank you.

Starting a small business takes a lot of courage. But, as they say, courage does not pay the bills. To be successful – to stay in business – you need more than courage. You need a combination of hard work, skill, perseverance, and lots of luck. \n\nSome things you need to consider:\n- "How can I support my family while I build up by business?" \n- "What are my abilities?" \n- "Is there a market for the product or service I have chosen?" \n- "How long will it take this business to reach the financial goal I have?" \n\nYou may want to read the article "How to Start a New Business Successfully" http://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol51/launch.htm , which lists six steps to launch a new business successfully:\n\n1.

Your age may be a factor against you. You need to prove to the bank that \n\n(a) your business will actually earn money; \n(b) you can repay the loan; and\n(c) you are invested in your business -- they won't give you 100% of the amount but only a part of it because they want to see the business owner believe in their business first.\n\nResearch about your business and prepare a strong business plan.

"Because you are not righteous enough to hear them talk." \n\n[in response to 'The Bible says that hares chew the cud', which they don't] "And exactly what did the hare look like back then?

dogs and kangaroos are the same main species....animals.\n\nmicro vs macro.....God's design.\n\ncan you not read ???"\n\n***\nFemale circumcision is not barbaric. It is done for a reason, to keep the female pure. If only we adopted such practices here in the UK, then maybe women would be less inclined toward infidelity and therefore family values would still be an integral part of society. Family values instil a sense of discipline and respect, which we need as a counteraction against the modern trend of zero respect and zero discipline that is undermining the very fabric of our decaying society."\n\n***\n"What if I told you I tore the wings off of a fly.

It is done for a reason, to keep the female pure. If only we adopted such practices here in the UK, then maybe women would be less inclined toward infidelity and therefore family values would still be an integral part of society.

I dont understand i get so depressed sumtimes. i just stay one place and cry in my room or i just cant control myself i become eagar to eat and in my mind i know i am not hungry. I make up in my imagination the way i should look and how my life should be. Without that i dont think i could of made it because i get veryyy sad when i come back to dealing with my real life. thats when i cry when i realize what i was thinking was just a day dream, Then i am faced to go on with my life but when im at a place you could look at me and see im not thinking like im there i sit there and daydream about how things should be. I try writing poetry but that dont help i just feel helpless and all i am on the world for is to take up space

hey, this is problee gonna sound weird, but reading ur description sounds exactly like the way that I am. I am also a fourteen year old girl and i do many of the same things that you do. And although I'm not a textbook or a surefire answer giver, i'm gonna try to help you. ok, here we go!\n\n*when u are sad and depressed and want to be in ur room, instead of crying and hiding call someone!!! or IM or whatever, tell them how u feel or make plans to do something! that way u can concentrate on something other than misery. i did the same things u did, the beginning of 2006 i didn't talk to anyone, i was classified as a "goth" in school just because i dress like one and i would bum around and not smile and laugh, even if i knew i wanted to, i also found myself eating just because i was bored, which wasn't good.\n\n*when u make up things in ur mind about how ur life should be lke how u should look or having the perfect boyfriend or house or a lot of money, stop and realize that so, yea maybe what u do have seems like shit. but look around u! do u have friends that are worse off? think not about what u dont have, but what u do! try every day to look in the mirror and find ONE thing about yourself that u like, give yourself just one compliment, every day, it really helps! i used to wake up every morning and say to the mirror "goodmorning stupid. i hate u and arent u glad that u are one day closer to dying today?" i used to do that. EVERY DAY. i told myself i was stupid and ugly. and thats exactly what i became. im a straight A student most of the time and i was failing my classes and i looked like hell, to tell the truth. but giving compliments and talking to friends and going places so u dont have time to think about everything depressing really does help.\n\n*when u sit and dream in public places, try to WAKE UP!!! lol. when i find myself doing exactly that. i look around at people i dont know. i think about what it would be like to be a man in a wheelchair or a woman that has to wear a wig because of cancer, or a child on a leash! and it makes me realize yea so i dont like myself, but look at THESE PEOPLE! these people that have it so much worse than i do - and they just keep living their lives! and believe it or not, thats what U need to do!!!\n\n*when poetry doesn't help, maybe try just drawing things, or even ripping a notebook apart that helps me! haha, yes, i write poetry too and sometimes it helps, it gives me a sort of satisfaction, but when it doesnt, it really helps to talk, even just to yourself! an no, you arent crazy if u do that, as long as you aren't answering yourself haha. \n\ni know what its like to feel like u are only here to take up space and that everything will be better and no one will care when u are finally gone. i know how that feels. and yea it sucks, but its not true! u can make just as much of a difference living the life u do now, as the one u imagine, just open up and talk to somene and try to start doing more when u feel like isolating yourself or eating for no reason because, if u are this much like me, i can already tell that u are an awesome person!!! and thats the truth!!! really it is!!! i'm glad u posted your question and i'm even more glad i saw it and have the chance to try to help...i dont know if i helped much, after all, im only 14 like you, not a professional or anything. but then again, maybe i can help MORE than a pro could, cause ive actually BEEN there\n\nso, i really hope i helped u and if u just overlook this cause u are angry and dont like what i said, its fine, really, i wont think any less of u as a wonderful person, but just do remember this, please, if someone cares enough to try to help u, U ARE NOT WORTHLESS!!! and u do MUCH more than just take up space! remember that! \n\nwell, maybe if i ever have a question, u can help me with mine sometime? talk to u later maybe!\n-Rachel J. age:14, Pennsylvania, USA, e-mail: melancholi

how much fat can i lose?

i have ten weeks to get in shape before school starts. i despise my calves, stomach, arms. thighs, and butt. pretty much everything. how much would i be able to lose in ten weeks? i am eating a lot of fruits and veggies and am drinking nothing but water and milk. what else can i do to achieve maximum fat loss and tone my body up for the fall?

Try this for a start, the go on to a well balanced diet and regular exercise. This does work.......\n\nBASIC FAT BURNING SOUP\n\n6 large green onions 2 green peppers \n1 or 2 cans of tomatoes [crushed] 1/2 bunch of celery \n1 large head of cabbage 1 pkg. Lipton onion soup\n4 cups of water\n\nSeason with 1/4 tsp. salt, 1 tsp. pepper, 1/4 tsp. curry, 1 Tbsp. parsley, if desired or bouillon or hot sauce. Cut vegetables in small to medium pieces and cover with water. Boil fast for ten minutes. Reduce to simmer and continue cooking until vegetables are tender. This soup can be eaten anytime you are hungry. Eat as much as you want, whenever you want. This soup will not add calories. The more you eat the more you will lose. Fill a thermos in the morning if you will be away during the day. If eaten for indefinite periods you would suffer malnutrition.\n=============================================================\n\nDAY ONE: All fruits except bananas. Cantaloupe and watermelon are lower in calories than most fruits. Eat only the soup and fruits. For drinks; unsweetened tea, cranberry juice, or water.\n\nDAY TWO: All vegetables. Eat until you are stuffed with all the fresh, raw, or canned vegetables. Try to eat green leafy veggies and stay away from dry beans, peas, and corn. Eat along with the soup. At dinner time on this day, reward yourself with a big baked potato and butter. Do not eat any fruits.\n\nDAY THREE: Eat all the soup, fruits, and vegetables you want. Do not have a baked potato. If you have eaten for three days as above, and have not cheated, you will have lost 5 to 7 pounds.\n\nDAY FOUR: Bananas and skim milk. Eat as many as 8 bananas and drink as many glasses of water as you can on this day along with the soup. Bananas are high in calories and carbohydrates and so is the milk, but on this particular day your body will need the potassium and \nthe carbohydrates, proteins and calcium to lessen your craving for sweets.\n\nDAY FIVE: Beef and tomatoes. You may have 10 to 20 ounces of beef and a can of tomatoes or as many as 6 fresh tomatoes on this day. Try to drink at least 6 to 8 glasses of water\nthis day to wash away the acid in your body. Eat the soup at least once this day.\n\nDAY SIX: Beef and veggies. Eat to your heart's content of the beef and vegetables this day. You can even have two or three steaks if you like with the green leafy vegetables, but no baked potato. be sure and eat the soup.\n\nDAY SEVEN: Brown rice, unsweetened fruit juices and vegetables. Again, stuff yourself. Be sure to have the soup at least once today.\n\nAt the end of the seventh day, if you have not cheated on the above diet, you will have lost 10 to 17 pounds. If you have lost more than 17 pounds, stay off the diet for two days before resuming again from day one.\n \nThis seven day eating plan can be used as often as you like. As a matter of fact, if correctly followed, it will clean your system of impurities and give you a feeling of well-being as never before.\n\nAfter only seven days of this process, you will begin to feel lighter by at least 10 and possibly 17 pounds, having an abundance of energy. Continue this plan as long as you wish and feel the difference.\n\nThis diet is fast, fat-burning, and the secret is that you will burn more calories than you take in. It will flush your system of impurities and give you a feeling of well-being. This diet does not lend itself to drinking any alcoholic beveragesat any time because of the removal of fat build-up in your system. Go off the diet at least 24 hours before any intake of alcohol.\n\nBecause everyone's digestive system is different, this diet will affect everyone differently. After day three, you will have more energy than when you began, if you did not cheat. After\nbeing on this diet for several

If you have lost more than 17 pounds, stay off the diet for two days before resuming again from day one.\n \nThis seven day eating plan can be used as often as you like. As a matter of fact, if correctly followed, it will clean your system of impurities and give you a feeling of well-being as never before.\n\nAfter only seven days of this process, you will begin to feel lighter by at least 10 and possibly 17 pounds, having an abundance of energy.

It will flush your system of impurities and give you a feeling of well-being. This diet does not lend itself to drinking any alcoholic beveragesat any time because of the removal of fat build-up in your system. Go off the diet at least 24 hours before any intake of alcohol.\n\nBecause everyone's digestive system is different, this diet will affect everyone differently.

Why am I like this?

I tend to run alot of senarios through my head. I plan for everything. Infact I tend to plan years ahead of time. I always think in my head of situations that I can get in and how to get out of them. I am not a person to make trouble or anything but I still think about it. Why do I plan things so much! \n\nFor instance - I had planned on what college I want to go to, where I would live, where I would work, how I was going to get to school and work(I mean what route I was going to take), what I was going to eat, where I was going to hang out, everything. Why am I so planned. I want to be unpredictable and yet I try... but still I am predictable. Why can't I just be spontaneous? Is this a problem? \n\nAlso while I am planing things, like what career field I am going to to into, I always tend to learn that field before I even go to college.\n\nMy only fear in life is failure, that's it. Nothing else.\n\nWhat's wrong with me!

Ah, nothing really. You are way way analytical. You either know this (eventually) or people have had to tell you this before.\nAnd take it from me, if you've been this way since you were born,(likely) then you dont know you are analytical unless you are told.\n\n\nBut anyway, this is a natural way for you to think and you think something is wrong because most people are not as analytical or analytical at all. Sorry...you're in company of few.\n\nSo being in this minority you will have to suffer through people thinking you're not so bright.\n\nIt can make for a boring world when so much is predictable. I mean, finishing a persons words (in your head), knowing a punchline of a joke before the end and you're told, dialogue in a movie predictable (or the plot). You know what I mean.\n\nAnd it can be frustrating when you realize you've thought something through way past someone you're having a conversation with.\nOne day, you may think there is nothing left to learn. When that day comes, go back to school (like when you're in you're late 30's)\n\nAnyway, you must take into account people. And some people will have some part of control over you-a boss-an instructor-etc.So you must guard that you dont become a manipulator, which might also come a bit natural. If that happens life truly is robotic. Because you control quite a bit of your life circumstances and surroundings, even the people around you at that point. Perhaps you cant be spontaneous but others are so you must cherish even more the individuality of every person you meet. And even if you know you can you must resist trying to control others. Let them surprise you. After all, if you dont manipulate them into what you want them to do, then you dont know what they will do. Let people delight you.\n\nAs far as the element of danger, you are in control that if that is where your active mind sends you, you must redirect it into a positive thing. If you think of scenarios, be the hero, not the villan. You can do this and still get that mental stimulation.\nYes, as far as the needs of your mind-they are great and may be a burden if you dont feed your mind with mental challenges-chess, sudoku, whatever it is for you.\n\nIf you are young enough, you may have the time to learn all the things you would like to learn-to play a musical instrument, a challenging hobby, experiences taking you as high as sky diving and so low like scuba. On and on.\n\nThe only thing you said that I think might be a red flag is that your only fear in life is failure. Think that through. You may be jeopardizing yourself in a sort of self fufilling prophesy. Be very careful about that.\nYou may have difficulty following through b/c you get bored once you start something. Those are the things that lead to failure. You may sense that about yourself.\n\nYou want to make the most of your life. You want to have the best opportunities you can have. For that reason I respectfully suggest (now dont be insulted please) see a psychiatrist for a while and tell him like you did here. You may have (now dont be insulted) but with bipolar disorder it seems the mind cant turn itself off. If you have this, your best opportunity is to be diagnosed and take medications that will allow you to harness your thoughts and allow you follow through on what you hope or plan to do. You are actually doing yourself a favor. There are many many highly intelligent people throughout history that had bipolar disorder. I am sugar coating it a bit b/c it is a DZ with a 20% fatality. So it is a serious condition but very treatable. I only suggest this b/c you think so much and thats a typical thing in bipolar disorder.\n\nYou're OK. You sound like you have a lot to give to this world. So, whatdya say? Nothings wrong, you're just you!

Why am I like this?I tend to run alot of senarios through my head. I plan for everything. Infact I tend to plan years ahead of time. I always think in my head of situations that I can get in and how to get out of them. I am not a person to make trouble or anything but I still think about it. Why do I plan things so much! \n\nFor instance - I had planned on what college I want to go to, where I would live, where I would work, how I was going to get to school and work(I mean what route I was going to take), what I was going to eat, where I was going to hang out, everything. Why am I so planned. I want to be unpredictable and yet I try... but still I am predictable. Why can't I just be spontaneous? Is this a problem? \n\nAlso while I am planing things, like what career field I am going to to into, I always tend to learn that field before I even go to college.\n\nMy only fear in life is failure, that's it. Nothing else.\n\nWhat's wrong with me!Ah, nothing really. You are way way analytical. You either know this (eventually) or people have had to tell you this before.\nAnd take it from me, if you've been this way since you were born,(likely) then you dont know you are analytical unless you are told.\n\n\nBut anyway, this is a natural way for you to think and you think something is wrong because most people are not as analytical or analytical at all. Sorry...you're in company of few.\n\nSo being in this minority you will have to suffer through people thinking you're not so bright.\n\nIt can make for a boring world when so much is predictable. I mean, finishing a persons words (in your head), knowing a punchline of a joke before the end and you're told, dialogue in a movie predictable (or the plot). You know what I mean.\n\nAnd it can be frustrating when you realize you've thought something through way past someone you're having a conversation with.\nOne day, you may think there is nothing left to learn. When that day comes, go back to school (like when you're in you're late 30's)\n\nAnyway, you must take into account people. And some people will have some part of control over you-a boss-an instructor-etc.So you must guard that you dont become a manipulator, which might also come a bit natural. If that happens life truly is robotic. Because you control quite a bit of your life circumstances and surroundings, even the people around you at that point. Perhaps you cant be spontaneous but others are so you must cherish even more the individuality of every person you meet. And even if you know you can you must resist trying to control others. Let them surprise you. After all, if you dont manipulate them into what you want them to do, then you dont know what they will do. Let people delight you.\n\nAs far as the element of danger, you are in control that if that is where your active mind sends you, you must redirect it into a positive thing. If you think of scenarios, be the hero, not the villan. You can do this and still get that mental stimulation.\nYes, as far as the needs of your mind-they are great and may be a burden if you dont feed your mind with mental challenges-chess, sudoku, whatever it is for you.\n\nIf you are young enough, you may have the time to learn all the things you would like to learn-to play a musical instrument, a challenging hobby, experiences taking you as high as sky diving and so low like scuba. On and on.\n\nThe only thing you said that I think might be a red flag is that your only fear in life is failure. Think that through. You may be jeopardizing yourself in a sort of self fufilling prophesy. Be very careful about that.\nYou may have difficulty following through b/c you get bored once you start something. Those are the things that lead to failure. You may sense that about yourself.\n\nYou want to make the most of your life. You want to have the best opportunities you can have. For that reason I respectfully suggest (now dont be insulted please) see a psychiatrist for a while and tell him like you did here.

my 4 yr. old has fits of anger, that cans sometimes be violent?

whenever somthing sets him off, he has a violent bout of anger and try's to hit me and wants to break things and says he's going to hit me and wants to hurt me and sometimes tells me to stop looking at him. I have tried spankings on his bottom but they don't work, he just comes back at me and wants to hurt me. sometimes i have to pin him down to keep him from going wild usually the bouts end within a half hour and he ends up crying and wanteing to be hugged and then he says he loves me and i'm his best friend. i ask him what was going on and he says his head was hurting, i ask if he was hearing voices in his head telling him to do things and he says no. he was checked by a doctor and he is progressing fine though he is not a big talker. anyone got an idea what is going on with him? There is a history of bipolor and ocd in the family but i haven't noticed him doing any rituals so i'm not sure what is going on. thanks for the help.

This is very challenging, indeed! Time to bring on your "big guns" of creativity...\n\nAct, but do not REACT.\n\nThe first thing that really stands out to me, is that he is really frustrated and feels unable to communicate effectively...and this is where you can really be the hero for him: to show him by your example how far you will go to continue communicating lovingly when you are frustrated. I know it's tough, and he really needs you to be "bigger" in heart & wisdom than he is.\n\nI imagine that trying to verbally communicate with your son when he is angry and frustrated is nearly impossible. But I do think that when he is calm, you and he can sit down together to problem solve this together and make a simple plan. You might be surpised how distressing this anger stuff is to him, as well as be ignited by his brilliance of the ideas that you he would come up with. But you already know that...;-] Either way, these conversations, however brief the interaction, will lay the groundwork -- on their own -- for the very ideas that he needs to draw from when he's so irrate. \n\n Remember that often boys' verbal skills develop much slower than girls, biologicaly speaking. (Do you remember this when you were his age?) My son couldn't speak understandably until he was 5; now an adult, he's an excellent & sensitive communicator. \n\nSecondly, be very careful about falling into the trap of diagnosis and labels...They're rather like "pin the tail on the donkey", with lots of misses in the dark! While your main intention is to be a responsible and wise, loving dad, who doesn't miss anything crucial, I sense this could easily backfire on you, especially when you are asking him about symptoms of psychosis. (Beware of projections -- not helpful.) . Too much information for a 4 year old child who's already stressed. Toss out the spanking right along with that, because that's really stressing him. He wonders why you get to hit, and he doesn't. \n\nI never met a child who didn't respond to love, especially from his Big Buddy!\n\nOn the other hand, it is not loving to allow him to hurt you or anyone else. Thrashing his own room, however, might be another matter...it's his stuff. The basic element of developing his agression (competition, motivation, hutszpah! but not meanness) is normal, and You can be a responsible loving parent by not repessing his natural (vital, life force) agression and guiding or directing him in how to express his frustrations, safely. I would clear his room of anything dangerous or hard, limit him to that kind of upset in his own room -- not agression towards anyone -- but allowing him a safe place and manner to vent his feelings until he is ready to rejoin the family. He's not in his room for punishment, just for safety, just like you guys talked about it.\n\nNonetheless, I can well imagine this does not happen only at home, so you'll need to come up with a similar plan at Grandma's and the grocery store, etc. Remember the key here is not to stop but to guide him. How do I know he's not the "Child from Hell"? Because as soon as he calms down (on his own) he WANTS to return to a connected, loving state. And just like anything else thus far, he is looking to you for an answer to something that as yet seems just too big for himself to deal with. \n\nUltimately, you both will not need him to rip up his room, because together, you will teach each other how to breathe, calm down in the moment, and communicate. You will be mastering this yourself, and teaching him this at every stage of his development.\n\nRight now, this is a stage (tough as it may be), which he will grow out of with your patient and brave guidance...and of course, Love.\n\nLove and Light to you all!\n\nP.S.> IF a diagnosis alone must be considered, I would first look at Asperger's or some other form of Autism, which tends to be

Would Jesus settle for compromizing?

i mean: can i promisse to love Him, yet refuse to have a relationship with Him?\n\nI think He does compromize a lot, because i see a lot of Christians do it exactly the other way around. They have a personal relationship with Jesus, yet forget about his Loving Teachings.

You can't love without doing. Love is action, not simply feeling. And even feeling should prompt one to act on it.\n\nJesus said, "If you love Me, do My commandments."\n\nI don't really understand the "having a personal relationship with Jesus, yet (forgetting) about His Loving Teachings." To my way of thinking, having a relationship with Him means my love for Him flows outward to others.\n\nLove doesn't always mean unconditional approval of what someone does. \n\nI've said before, my husband and I come from abusive homes. When you have a rigid, unloving upbringing, you naturally think that love must be the lack of structure. Getting to do anything you want.\n\nAfter my second miscarriage, Jim (my husband) got me a black Labrador Retriever puppy. He has a really sweet disposition. I knew from our family raising Doberman Pinschers that dogs need to be trained, but Jim just couldn't bring himself to make Bear do anything in order to get treats. Or to not let him jump up whenever he wants. Or to refrain from giving him scraps from his plate. \n\nBear became a terror.\n\nAnd it's not really his fault. He needs to know what's appropriate. And it's our responsibility to teach him. Jim has felt like setting limits is unloving. But really, we all need limits. \n\nSometimes loving others - while it's not my responsibility to "train" them - means setting limits with them. I have, at times, had to tell someone I love something that they really didn't want to hear. That's always so hard, but it's the loving thing to do.\n\nI find that it's the single most humbling experience to go to another person and say, "This is what I see in your life, and this is what I believe the consequence will be." But if a person knows that I love and respect them, and that I am not confronting them out of jealousy or pride - or too occupy myself to keep from examining my own life - I've found that it is generally well received. \n\nIt's really hard to walk the balance between the fun parts of loving others and the setting limits aspect. Especially for Christians. I love many people who are not Christians, and of course I want them to believe in Christ. I understand those who go to the extreme pushing their beliefs. I understand being afraid for someone else. But love is not about fear. Love is about faith and trust. \n\nI also understand those who refuse Christianity because they resist the pressure put on them to convert. I really hate being pressured into anything. It makes me sick. Jim teases me because I'll drive a car till it falls apart. I hate buying a car. It literally makes me ill. High pressure sales.\n\nI don't believe Christianity is about that. God gives the increase. I don't have to make anyone do anything. And I thank God for that.\n\nI don't believe Jesus settles for compromising. Not because He is unloving, but because the limits are for our own good.\n\nMy dad used to train our dog to sit for hours at a time. It made him feel successful to be in control of something else. I let the memory of that keep me from training Bear. What I realized is that not training Bear put him in danger. I don't need to control him like my dad did our dogs, but for his own safety, he needs to learn to obey me (and Jim). It's not an ego trip. I can see things he cannot. He may really want the ball or the cat that just caught his eye. I can see the car coming between him and the object of his attention. He needs to obey my voice rather than his impulses so that I can keep him out of the road and out of harm's way. I need him to trust me, and work with me, when I take him to the vet. He doesn't understand why I let the vet hurt him when he gets a shot. If he doesn't trust me and obey me, he's at risk.\n\nI believe serving God is like that. If I don't trust God and obey Him,

Is there a Psalm 69 & if so, what is it?

As in the Ministry album of the same name!

Save me, O God; for the waters are come in unto my soul. \n\n 2I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me. \n\n 3I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried: mine eyes fail while I wait for my God. \n\n 4They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of mine head: they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored that which I took not away. \n\n 5O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my sins are not hid from thee. \n\n 6Let not them that wait on thee, O Lord GOD of hosts, be ashamed for my sake: let not those that seek thee be confounded for my sake, O God of Israel. \n\n 7Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face. \n\n 8I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien unto my mother's children. \n\n 9For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me. \n\n 10When I wept, and chastened my soul with fasting, that was to my reproach. \n\n 11I made sackcloth also my garment; and I became a proverb to them. \n\n 12They that sit in the gate speak against me; and I was the song of the drunkards. \n\n 13But as for me, my prayer is unto thee, O LORD, in an acceptable time: O God, in the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation. \n\n 14Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters. \n\n 15Let not the waterflood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up, and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me. \n\n 16Hear me, O LORD; for thy lovingkindness is good: turn unto me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies. \n\n 17And hide not thy face from thy servant; for I am in trouble: hear me speedily. \n\n 18Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it: deliver me because of mine enemies. \n\n 19Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonour: mine adversaries are all before thee. \n\n 20Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness: and I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none. \n\n 21They gave me also gall for my meat; and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink. \n\n 22Let their table become a snare before them: and that which should have been for their welfare, let it become a trap. \n\n 23Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their loins continually to shake. \n\n 24Pour out thine indignation upon them, and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them. \n\n 25Let their habitation be desolate; and let none dwell in their tents. \n\n 26For they persecute him whom thou hast smitten; and they talk to the grief of those whom thou hast wounded. \n\n 27Add iniquity unto their iniquity: and let them not come into thy righteousness. \n\n 28Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written with the righteous. \n\n 29But I am poor and sorrowful: let thy salvation, O God, set me up on high. \n\n 30I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving. \n\n 31This also shall please the LORD better than an ox or bullock that hath horns and hoofs. \n\n 32The humble shall see this, and be glad: and your heart shall live that seek God. \n\n 33For the LORD heareth the poor, and despiseth not his prisoners. \n\n 34Let the heaven and earth praise him, the seas, and every thing that moveth therein. \n\n 35For God will save Zion, and will build the cities of Judah: that they may dwell there, and have it in possession. \n\n 36The seed also of his servants shall inherit it: and they that love his name shall dwell therein.

do you know jesus as your personal lord and savior?

do you know where you'll spend eternal life heaven or hell

I know it is long, but the answer you seek is below:\n\n\nWhat If The Lord Were To Come Right Now? Would You Know For Sure, Without A Doubt, That You Would Go Heaven? \n\nMay I tell you my story?\n\nMy story relates to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.\n\nWho is this Jesus?\n\nWe can know how to have eternal life!\n1 John 5:13 These things have I written unto you, that ye may know that ye have eternal life, [even] unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God. \n\nThere was a time in my life when I was confused, because of all the different churches out there. Which one do I believe, because they all teach different things?\n\nJust because I was raised by my parents to believe certain things does that make everyone else wrong? No.\nI got to thinking in life there are life and death statements.\nFor instance let's say your house catches on fire. Someone comes up in the middle of the night and raps on the window and shouts "get out of the house, the house is on fire." Well you know you wouldn't need an interpreter or call a few friends over and ask them what it means when someone says your house is on fire. No you wouldn't do that it is so clear what you should do. You understand you simply have to act on it and get out of the house. Well I got to thinking the Bible talks about there being an everlasting punishment. I believe this is Gods word. I thought God must have some life and death statements. Like get out of the house the house is on fire. Does God have some statements like believe this and you will live do this and you will die? He does. \n\nThen, what has been written? \n\nJohn 8:24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for except ye believe that I am [he], ye shall die in your sins.\n\nWell I know what that means. Unless I believe that Jesus is who he says he is I will die in my sins.\n\nIsn't this a life and death statement?\n\nThen who is this Jesus? \n\nLet's go exploring. \n\nMatthew 16:13-17 Now when Jesus came into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Who do men say that the Son of man is? 14 And they said, Some [say] John the Baptist; some, Elijah; and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets. 15 He saith unto them, But who say ye that I am? 16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. 17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jonah: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father who is in heaven. \n\nWhose son is he? "God's son"\nIn other words Jesus says you are right.\n\nWell you know I got to thinking what does it mean to believe he is the son of God? So I kept reading.\n\nIs he being the son of God all we must believe concerning His identity? \n\nJohn 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.\n\nAnd I kept reading. \n\nJust being the son of God...Is God. Notice here: \nJohn 1:14 And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us (and we beheld his glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father), full of grace and truth. \n\nWell here Jesus is claiming to be the son of God and God at the same time. \n\nAll Jesus is saying is that he is the same as his parents. Jesus mother was human and father was God. That makes him 100% human and 100% God.\n\nIs that important that Jesus is a 100% God and man? Remember John 8:24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for except ye believe that I am [he], ye shall die in your sins.\n\nWhen Jesus came to earth, did he leave his Godhead in Heaven? \n\nColossians 2:9 for in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily, \nNotice that Jesus is 100% man and 100% God. \n\nHere God the Father calls his own son God.\n\nHebrews 1:1, 8 God, having of old time spoken unto the fathers in the prophets by divers portions and in divers manners, \n8 but of the Son [he saith], Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever; And the sceptre of uprightne

Anybody else get sick of the NBA after the finals this year?

Sorry Miami enjoy your championship...just a few quotes from around the country.............Note: I'm not saying I agree with these perspectives ... but here's a very fair sampling of the e-mails that drifted into my mailbox on Sunday night and Monday morning.\n\n\nI do solemnly swear, this 19th day of June, 2006 that I will never watch an NBA game again. Everyone is supposed to say what a great game that was with a straight face? At least the WWE has the grace to give you a wink. If watching a man in a flak jacket and thigh pads repeatedly throw himself into defenders to draw foul calls is what passes for "competition," or better yet watching said man hit layups because no one can breathe on him, I believe I can live without [it]. Why would anyone follow a "sport" that employs Dick Bavetta and Stu Jackson? All that was missing was David Stern running onto the court with a steel chair, ABC execs in tow. Bill Simmons, I name thee prophet. It went down exactly as you said it would.\n-- James, Richmond, Virginia\n\n\n\nTwenty-five free-throw attempts is nonsense, not even MJ would have gotten some of those foul calls. And I'm not just saying this because I'm a bitter Pistons fan. Sixty-year-old officials should not be officiating 20-something-year-old professional athletes.\n-- Paul, Detroit, Mich.\n\n\n\nHave you ever, I mean EVER, seen a guy get more calls than Wade in Game 5? As staggering as it is to even think it, much less say it out loud, this surpasses the level of calls Jordan used to get in the playoffs. Simply AMAZING. I am a die-hard NBA fan, and I understand and accept the whole "stars get calls" factor, but this is an insane new level. Every time Wade falls down (even if not touched) he gets a call. You called it in your preview, the refs were gonna give some games to Miami, and they did.\n-- Jonathan, Raleigh, N.C.\n\n\n\nPlease admit to everyone that the treatment Dwyane Wade is receiving is absolutely absurd. The final play in Game 5 summed it up: He commits a backcourt violation, pushes off on Terry, then goes wildly to the bucket and gets bailed out on a phantom foul call. Is what the NBA has to do to create its star of the future? \n-- Mark, Chicago\n\n\n\nI watch very little NBA basketball; however, as the playoffs have been playing out, I have found myself watching more and more games, becoming more interested. Then comes the Finals and I feel like I am watching pro wrestling, except I can fool myself into thinking those matches aren't fixed. At least it makes the NBA the easiest sport to gamble on.\n-- Jeremy Louden, Cincinnati\n\n\n\nI want to say something about Dwayne Wade, but I fear I may get called for a foul.\n-- Warren, Ludington, Mich.\n\n\n\nUnfortunately you were right that the NBA finals could come down to the officials. David Stern would rather choke to death on his own vomit than hand Mark Cuban the trophy. It's clear he instructed the refs to take an active interest in the outcomes of the games. Every time Wade drives the lane the refs call a foul on whoever is closest. \n-- Jeff, Baltimore\n\n\n\nAfter witnessing the Game 5 debacle, I am absolutely convinced that Stern is trying to fix the Finals for D-Wade and the Heat. Stackhouse's suspension, Dirk's phantom foul in OT, and then Joey Crawford's inexplicable call for a Mavs timeout -- it all adds up too perfectly. This could be a conspiracy as far-reaching as Watergate. I can already imagine the inevitable ESPN movie, "All The Commissioner's Men," where a stubborn, upstart young sports columnist brings down Stern and the entire NBA hierarchy. So, Simmons, the only question is: Will you be our Bob Woodward? \n-- Robert P., Topeka, Kan.\n\n\n\nAll the comparisons between Wade and Jordan need to stop right now. There's no way Jordan would have gotten that call in the final seconds of Game 5.\n-- Chris Richardson, Charleston

Oh my gosh! YES!!!! The Phoenix Suns were beat up for the first two rounds!!!! But we were rooting for Dallas during the Finals. I am so aggravated! This is crap that seriously needs to STOP!!!!! Ill always watch my Suns, but I cant ever watch a game without wanting to throw something at the tv. Nash is a double MVP and he doesn't get anything called for him ever,. Its just plain ridiculous.

Anybody else get sick of the NBA after the finals this year?Sorry Miami enjoy your championship...just a few quotes from around the country.............Note: I'm not saying I agree with these perspectives ... but here's a very fair sampling of the e-mails that drifted into my mailbox on Sunday night and Monday morning.\n\n\nI do solemnly swear, this 19th day of June, 2006 that I will never watch an NBA game again. Everyone is supposed to say what a great game that was with a straight face? At least the WWE has the grace to give you a wink. If watching a man in a flak jacket and thigh pads repeatedly throw himself into defenders to draw foul calls is what passes for "competition," or better yet watching said man hit layups because no one can breathe on him, I believe I can live without [it]. Why would anyone follow a "sport" that employs Dick Bavetta and Stu Jackson? All that was missing was David Stern running onto the court with a steel chair, ABC execs in tow. Bill Simmons, I name thee prophet. It went down exactly as you said it would.\n-- James, Richmond, Virginia\n\n\n\nTwenty-five free-throw attempts is nonsense, not even MJ would have gotten some of those foul calls. And I'm not just saying this because I'm a bitter Pistons fan. Sixty-year-old officials should not be officiating 20-something-year-old professional athletes.\n-- Paul, Detroit, Mich.\n\n\n\nHave you ever, I mean EVER, seen a guy get more calls than Wade in Game 5? As staggering as it is to even think it, much less say it out loud, this surpasses the level of calls Jordan used to get in the playoffs. Simply AMAZING.

I want to know about your religion.?

I want to know about your religion in your words...what it teaches how its interperted...what it means to you..also do you think most people that are indoctrinated in to your religion are truley fallowers of it.

ISLAM\nThe religion of Islam is the acceptance of and obedience to the teachings of God which He revealed to His last prophet, Muhammad .\n\nSome Basic Islamic Beliefs\n1) Belief in God:\n\nMuslims believe in one, unique, incomparable God, Who has no son nor partner, and that none has the right to be worshipped but Him alone. He is the true God, and every other deity is false. He has the most magnificent names and sublime perfect attributes. No one shares His divinity, nor His attributes. In the Quran, God describes Himself:\n\n Say, “He is God, the One. God, to Whom the creatures turn for their needs. He begets not, nor was He begotten, and there is none like Him.” (Quran, 112:1-4)\n\nChapter 112 of the Quran written in Arabic calligraphy\n\nChapter 112 of the Quran written in Arabic calligraphy.\n\nNo one has the right to be invoked, supplicated, prayed to, or shown any act of worship, but God alone.\n\nGod alone is the Almighty, the Creator, the Sovereign, and the Sustainer of everything in the whole universe. He manages all affairs. He stands in need of none of His creatures, and all His creatures depend on Him for all that they need. He is the All-Hearing, the All-Seeing, and the All-Knowing. In a perfect manner, His knowledge encompasses all things, the open and the secret, and the public and the private. He knows what has happened, what will happen, and how it will happen. No affair occurs in the whole world except by His will. Whatever He wills is, and whatever He does not will is not and will never be. His will is above the will of all the creatures. He has power over all things, and He is able to do everything. He is the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, and the Most Beneficent. In one of the sayings of the Prophet Muhammad , we are told that God is more merciful to His creatures than a mother to her child.1 God is far removed from injustice and tyranny. He is All-Wise in all of His actions and decrees. If someone wants something from God, he or she can ask God directly without asking anyone else to intercede with God for him or her.\n\nGod is not Jesus, and Jesus is not God.2 Even Jesus himself rejected this. God has said in the Quran:\n\n Indeed, they have disbelieved who have said, “God is the Messiah (Jesus), son of Mary.” The Messiah said, “Children of Israel, worship God, my Lord and your Lord. Whoever associates partners in worship with God, then God has forbidden Paradise for him, and his home is the Fire (Hell). For the wrongdoers,3 there will be no helpers.” (Quran, 5:72)\n\nGod is not a trinity. God has said in the Quran:\n\n Indeed, they disbelieve who say, “God is the third of three (in a trinity),” when there is no god but one God. If they desist not from what they say, truly, a painful punishment will befall the disbelievers among them. Would they not rather repent to God and ask His forgiveness? For God is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. The Messiah (Jesus), son of Mary, was no more than a messenger... (Quran, 5:73-75)\n\nIslam rejects that God rested on the seventh day of the creation, that He wrestled with one of His angels, that He is an envious plotter against mankind, or that He is incarnate in any human being. Islam also rejects the attribution of any human form to God. All of these are considered blasphemous. God is the Exalted. He is far removed from every imperfection. He never becomes weary. He does not become drowsy nor does he sleep.\n\nThe Arabic word Allah means God (the one and only true God who created the whole universe). This word Allah is a name for God, which is used by Arabic speakers, both Arab Muslims and Arab Christians. This word cannot be used to designate anything other than the one true God. The Arabic word Allah occurs in the Quran about 2700 times. In Aramaic, a language related closely to Arabic and the language that Jesus habitually spoke,4 God is also referred to as Allah.\n2) Belief in the Angels:\n\nMuslims belie
