My husband & I have been together for 6 years, married for 3. A year into our engagement he started showing some behaviors that conserned me. He was abrassive, rude toward me, my family, his friends and his family and had outbursts of anger at almost anything even the smallest situation would be a big issue for him. I thought it was just stress from planning the wedding but we've been married for 3 years now and it just keeps getting worse. I feel I have to walk on egg shells around him because I don't know what will make him tick that day. We use to have fun and be layed back now he's up tight and blaming me for it. We've been goig to counseling but his attitude has not changed. He says he wants to make this work but his actions are showing the opposite. HELP I'm at the end of my rope.

Those that claim that your founding fathers were religious, you are very mistaken and do not even know your own history.
Your founding fathers were deists, not Christians.
Many of your Religious Right activists have attempted to rewrite history by asserting that the United States government derived from Christian foundations, that your Founding Fathers originally aimed for a Christian nation. This idea simply does not hold to the historical evidence.

Of course many Americans did practice Christianity, but so also did many believe in deistic philosophy. Indeed, most of your influential Founding Fathers, although they respected the rights of other religionists, held to deism and Freemasonry tenets rather than to Christianity.

IN ANY CASE , WHY ARE YOU SO RELIGIOUS?
Why do you give more importance to the Bible than science or history?

Do you think people really have prejudices against attractive people? When you see an attractive person, do you automatically assume that person cannot be brilliant?

My girlfriend is very smart (a philosophy major) but feels the need to play down her looks in order for her mind to be taken seriously. She's very beautiful and she told me recently that she doesn't want her classmates (and her prof - who,
incidentally, is a woman) to assume she's just a beauty with no brains. (She didn't word it quite like that.)

So she dresses really shabbily and makes a point of wearing no makeup to class (even though she likes it) so that she doesn't stand out.

When she told me this, I started thinking ... is this just a personal hang-up of hers? Or do people (especially academics) feel threatened in the presence of really attractive people? Or is it simply a stereotype that attractive people can't also be bright?

What are your thoughts?

I am 23 I lost my best friend to a drunk driver almost 1 month ago shortly before he passed he asked me to Take care of his pregnant wife and 2 year old son, i assured him that I would and he was gone a few moments later. He was also 23 and so is his wife, we have all know eachother and been the best of friends since preschool. His wife Tonya is a stay at home mom with little to no family, and was left with no money only debts. I told her she could move into my 3 bedroom house with me I live alone, I should mention me and Tonya were a couple back in highschool. I have all at once found myself a father to a toddler, the sole bread winner, and emotional supporter. She has been wanting to sleep next to me at night (she wants to be held) nothing intamate, I feel very guilty about doing this. My life has changed so fast and in so many different ways, I feel I am doing the right thing, she has noone, how could I do any less? Am I crazy for putting myself this far out? I dont know how to feel

They are both cult leaders. Yes the FLDS split from LDS... or wait, is it the other way around? Did the LDS split to try to become more mainstream? FLDS actually live the religion the way it was originally 'dictated' by Joseph Smith, and the book of Mormon, and the D&C. Makes you wanna go HMMMM

Everyone is teasing me for the names I want for my *cross-your-fingers-and-hope-the-test-was-right* baby... if it's a boy, I want "Baxter" and if it's a girl, I want "Beatrix."

I loved Beatrix Potter books growing up. Are these names completely awful? They're very English, and that's what I like about them, but I could use another opinion or two or three :)
