I bought a small wooden elephant the other day and I'd like to give him an authentic Indian name. I think that my elephant is a baby elephant. He has his trumpet upwards and curled back and his tail is on the right side of his bum. He's very playful and he's a prince. Please, when you suggest a name, don't forget to tell me the meaning of that name and the language it is in. Like in India there are lots of languages. I'll appreciate every answer!

Is it because, you are tired of the marriage commitment, the promises, or afraid of all. Why are you still a single?

If white people become green with nausea, red with sunburn, blue when cold, yellow with jaundice, and pink when blushing...why do they refer to black people as colored?

homosexuals might argue that love is love no matter what and love can find anyone and has no limits

if this is true, then, in theory, shouldn't we all be bisexual?

i am completely strait and do not believe this, but am i not right?

i can say right on spot that a good reason for strait people to be strait is because we want children to call part of us (genetically).

basically, my question is, are homosexuals only homosexuals for the sex since if they really believe that love could find anyone, they would be bisexual? (ruling out strait people only being strait for sex since there is a reason as i have given for this)

if they were written by humans like all of us?"Locus,Hanna...etc?
if the present day Bibles are true why they have many contradictions?

That's what I meant by "Blah Blah Blah Blah"...some people when they talk its like all you hear is Waa Waa Waa Waa...not words, just blah blah... like your mother used to sound like when you were listening to a good tune & she'd start talking---or your teacher sounded like when you were in the middle of a good day-dream and she'd start talking to the class. Like what you hear when you're swimming and your ears are full of water. Huh?

Christ told not to pray any Idols...

No disrespect to Christ but I think that the facts in the book are too true that the book doesn't seem to be a fiction. Dan Brown may have called it a fiction owing to external pressure or for his own safety.

I think there are 2 kinds of 'wrong'.
1. The wrong that you PLAN on doing (premeditation).
2. The wrong that you didn't mean to do, but did.
I don't think #2 is one that God cares about actually, if your heart is in the right frame of feeling/believing; but #1...if you do that, I don't think God takes kindly to people who PLAN to do something wrong (like, you know..."I'm going to go out an get DRUNK").
I think if you do something wrong, you'd beter hope it's a #2 kind...not a #1 kind. In the Catholic church #2 is called a "Venial Sin", and #1 is called a "mortal sin". Any other thoughts on the original question?

Professional sportsmen abstain from sex the night or week before as it is believed this increases their aggressiveness. If Sex reduces aggressiveness in men why then then is abstinence encouraged as one of the virtues for those on the path of salvation in most religions ? Sex should be freely encouraged as it reduces aggressiveness which is good for salvation !!

I am always perplexed why would God a feeling so powerful and beautiful if it was to be seen as a shame and taboo ?

My very first violation notice! And I didn't even deserve this! Did I?

People write so much BS on Answers, and I didn't say anything objectionable, unless you are republican? Or George W Bush?

Here's the transcript they sent me. Typial Republicans. They don't mind calling widows from 911 harpies and witches reveling in their husbands' deaths but I have coomitted a grave offence by having fun at Bush's expense. And what Adult content is there in the answer, btw?

The accent, the dialog, few words are all different when it comes to the British English. I think we should call the American English Americanish, Ricanish, Ameglish, or Wronglish. What do you think?
