As far as I have been able to find, Catholics and Protestants both debunk Dan Brown's book "The Da Vinci Code".

I haven't read the book, just so you know, so please give me as much detail as you can about why the book goes against your Catholic or Protestant church doctrines.

BESIDES the "Jesus and Mary were never married" thing, I mean. This is really the only premise of the book I've heard cited as an example of why the book is so flawed.

Surely there must be other reasons??? Other doctrines that the book goes against according to the Catholic and Protestant churches?

You have a long distance relationship with someone who does all it takes to be with you knowing that you thousands of miles away from them
everything is perfect

all of a sudden they break up (they disappear, stop taking you calls..)

you figure they wanna break up

then they come back to explain why they broke up ad make up a lie of how they got into a huge problem that made them lose their job etc.. and a car accident and that this is enough stress ..

a few month later you figure out they have someone else


do you think the break up was because of the long distance, or something in me, or the fact they met someone better ?

by the way.. after he " explained" why he broke up he stopped talking to me again... then, months later I called to see how he was doing he started yelling and said I WAS GOING TO cheat on him , what made say that ??

Someone very close to me died today, and what went on at the hospital has me really wondering about what I should do at his funeral. I'm an atheist, and barely managed to bite my tongue when the hospital's chaplain came and said prayers to his loving god shortly after my loved one's death. (If this "loving god" were real, I would feel nothing but hatred and rage for it.) But, I also wondered if I was being disrespectful to his memory by not at least 'going through the motions', knowing full well that he still believed. (We just talked about this no more than 6 weeks or so ago.) Whatever the case with that, it's done and over now and I can't change it. But, what I'm worried about is his funeral. Should I, in respect to his beliefs, join in praying? Or should I just maintain a respectful silence? I'm at a complete loss (probably because I'm still in shock, I think) and would really, really appreciate advice from atheists and theists alike. My sincere thanks in advance.

Earlier today, I was playing Sims 2 when water spilled from behind my laptop. I was adjusting my mouse's wire during that time, so I evidently knocked it down. Once I saw the water, I picked up my cpu, but I was afraid of getting shocked so I dropped it. The drop wasn't severe enough to cause any damage, plus it fell on a plastic binder. But now, my laptop doesn't start. The monitor light turns on, but the screen's black and the rest of the machine doesn't run. Plus, the monitor light turns off a bit afterwards.

Any resolution on this?

4 years ago my wife and myself purchased a home in Ma. Needless to say, We paid alot. At the time, the market was hot and we had relocated from a market which had a significantly lower home prices. In order to continue living in the lifestyle we had grown accustomed to, we did some "creative financing". We took out a no interest loan for the first 2 years and were lucky enough to refinance before the market cooled down. We also took out a Home equity line of credit. We were able to secure good interest rates on both but the monthly output is substantially more. Combine this with a few life changing events, we find ourselves on the verge of forclosure or bankruptcy. Are there any better options available? If not, which of the 2 options will be easier to recover from? By the way, selling the house is out. It will not appraise for what we owe.

I bought a 1996 toyota camry and i like tinkering around maintaining the car myself. I already changed the spark polugs, wires, distributor cap and rotor. I may need new brakes soon that I want to do myself. I also need a maintenance guide so I know exactly when my car needs oil changes, fluids checks, belts changed, hoses, etc.

I want to do it myself. So is the manual reliable? Or haynes?

My man and I have been together a while now. He finds himself recently unemployed and is having a problem finding a job. He is really down on himself and depressed because of it. Rather than turning to me, who should be a source of support for this type of thing, he has pushed me away saying that he is going to become intolerable soon. and he would rather end us on a high note. He is not cheating, and he says he still loves me. How do you just walk away from someone because you're going through something weird and temporary? I'm so confused. There is no pushing him or changing his mind. He is very strong minded and stubborn. What is the best way to handle this. I'm so broken hearted over this. Do I just let him go and see what happens?
