I just read the story here:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070125/ap_on_re_mi_ea/jordan_honor_killing_1
about a Jordanian father who doubted his daughter's virginity, even after a medical examination (which, in my opinion, is itself a breach of trust), so he shot her four times in her head. She died, and an autopsy again confirmed her virginity. Is the type of person who would do such a thing to their own daughter evil to the core, psychotic, schizophrenic, or perhaps have a schizoid personality? I was briefly reading about these disorders, and discovered that a schizoid personality is "characterized by a lack of interest in social relationships, a tendency towards a solitary lifestyle, and emotional coldness. Its prevalence is estimated at less than 1% of the general population."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schizoid_personality_disorder

Why, then, do you suppose that Middle Eastern men murder their daughters? Is it cultural "brainwash", if you will, or a personality disorder?

A close fiend asked me a question I could not answer. She has taken a pain killer (vikoden) because of an agonizing toothache. 10 days ago she had unprotected sex and fears what if she's pregnant. (she is feeling so guilty but could not handle the pain) If by some chance she is pregnant since 10 days is to early to tell. Will that one pill do any harm? I don't kknow what to tell her and she is a sweet girl. Please help!

I am looking for some really good songs about CRUSHES, that have really good meaningful lyrics. I am especially looking for ones about girls having crushes on guys and the guy not feeling the same, or the girl having a crush on a guy and the guy doesnt even know. Know any?

A family members ex-girlfriend shows up after nine months and a couple of days with a baby she claims is his. She doesn't even tell him herself, she sends her sister to show him the baby and deliver the news. He doesn't believe the baby is his, so before he tells his 7 year old daughter, she has a sister, he spends three months seeing the baby, etc. Now after 4 months the Ex says, the baby is not his. Which to be honest I don't think any of us really thought she was in the first place. Although I am a Christian and do believe in forgiveness, I personally want to BEAT HER DOWN(I am only human). The thing that really pisses me off are the fact that she approached him, he had no clue she was even pregnant. She had three months before he told his daughter about the baby, and she didn't tell him then. Now he has to tell his 7 year old daughter who is in love with her "baby sister" that the baby is not his. So what would you do?

my girl asked about trying to get custody of her little half sister yesterday... i'm the bf she lives with if you read her question. anyways, i'm all for it, i mean i've never raised a kid before but i'm sure we can do better than taylor's mother can. she loves that girl with all of her heart. and she's sooooo good with children. every kid she's came across has fallen in love with her. she use to work at an elementary school when she was 15... volunteer work and she still has little pictures all the kids drew her saying they love her and whatnot.

anyways, i'm afraid that if she goes through with this that i might not be a good "dad" or whatever figure for taylor. i know tasha can handle it and i just want to be supportive. she's going to be a magnificant mother someday and a role model to everyone. she's my hero, my world.

am i stressing about my role in this or what?

I was wondering if a Christian could explain to me the moral of this story?

Job was a hard working, honest, God loving man who praised Gods name constantly.

Then the Devil says 'He only praises you cos your so good to him'

So God, to prove a point to the Devil destroys Job's business and kills his family and then plagues Job with boils...

yet still job praises God 'The lord giveth and the lord taketh away'

so god proves his point... and then what?...

Did Job spend the rest of his days without his family and with boils praising God because the bible swiftly moves on

and what kind of point is there to that story? God will do a number on you just to make a point to the Devil?

I think that makes God a bit of a b*stard really....

Okay i was on the pill for a few years and last month i stopped taking it. I had my period right around christmas and everything was fine. My husband ans I only had sex once unprotected around the 10th or so. I still haven't had my period yet though. I took a test 3 days ago and it came up negative. I have been cramping like i would when i am getting ready to have my period but nothing comes. I have no other symptoms really , no breast soreness or anything like that. My friends say that is most likely just my body getting used to not takin the pill anymore. I have never missed a period once.

Could i be pregnant?
