I have been best friends with Betty since high school. We crack eachother up, and have similar taste and views on things. She was an awesome maid of honor at my wedding a few months back, and a true best friend. Recently she has not wanted to do things, backing out of plans, not calling me, and I really feel depressed about this. She's not acting like herself at all, and when I try to talk to her about this, she just brushes it off or changes the subject. What is happening??


She has a boyfriend, so it's not like she's alone---we used to hang out just me and her, or all 4 of us, and have fun. now it's like she does not want to hang out with me, or in a group. It feels like she does not even like me anymore--I am so confused and hurt. It makes no sense to me. She criticizes me now, and also tries to act superior--I don't understand why this is happening after 20 years of friendship!

I am a faithful Christian as well, but there is something on my mind that bothers me. What happens to the people who have never heard about God, do they really go to hell. I know the gospel has reached almost every part of the earth, but there are still some people who haven't heard about it. Isn't it unfair for those who haven't even had the chance to get saved?

What's a really good quote by a Chicano, for Chicanos? I'm doing an assignment on the future of Chicanos as an ethnicity and would like to start it off with something really powerful, but I can't find any good quotes to use for my introduction. Suggestions? Preferably something to do along the lines with the culture as a whole, maybe the civil rights movement, etc...

At school, a boy is told by a classmate that most adults are hiding at least one dark secret, and that this makes it very easy to blackmail them by saying, “I know the whole truth” -- even when you don't know anything.
The boy decides to go home and try it out. As he is greeted by his mother at the front door he says, “I know the whole truth.” His mother quickly hands him $20 and says, “Just don't tell your father.”

For about 3 months or so, I've been e-mailing this girl that lives in my neighborhood. She is 14 and I am 17. Nobody but my brother and her close friends know that we like each other because we don't really want a whole bunch of people telling us that there's too big of an age difference. So far, all we ever do is e-mail and sometimes talk in public...privately. Through e-mail, we call each other cute names and such. In our religion (we go to the same church), we're not allowed to date until the age of 16. So we don't spend much time together at all.

But recently, like within this last month, I've been dating this other girl who is my same age and goes to my same school (the other girl is going to be a 9th grader in Middle School). We've gone on two dates and will soon go on a third. I'm starting to really like this "other" girl and I want to hold her hand and kiss her within the next two dates.

So is it technically cheating dating this 17 year-old girl?

Do you think J.K. Rowling started picturing the actors as she wrote the last book, rather than simply seeing the characters as she created them...?
This has been worrying me-- I can just imagine her writing it with visions of how scenes will play in the movie rather than just how they work for the book. Which may be good, it might improve both the book and the movie. But it kind of worries, me for some reason; I'm afraid she wrote the book with the movie in mind, and that the quality of the book may suffer for it.
Not that I won't enjoy it all the same, lol. Guess we'll all find out soon enough, though. :)

The RCC claims an unbroken connection to the Apostle Peter. When a Pope, who is considered the voice of Christ on earth, is proclaimed by a later Pope to have been "a False Pope" how are the proclaimations made by the false Pope dealt with by the Vatican? The current Pope has spoken in the past about false Popes and who is to say the next Pope will not claim that Pope Benedict was a false Pope? How do you logically reconcile this with the claim of "unbroken succession?"

I don't know anything about cars but I am buying a car from a guy for cash. I was wondering, what do I have to do to get it transferred in my name? Go to the DMV? And... If I pay cash, how do I prove that I payed for it? Couldn't he say I never payed? And is there any other smarter method than cash? Thanks.
