"Does it matter...you obviously only wan to hear what you want to hear. Julia is absolutely correct. Just because you are born with a desire to love men doesn't mean that it's right. We are all born in sin. Sin comes in many different forms and fashions. Some people love to steal, kill etc. Some may like members of the same sex. It's still wrong. Once you realize that you need a savior in your life that knows better than you then you are able to turn from those sins."

Can we help her understand?

I currently attend an Apostolic church. The people who go there, as well as myself, believe in speaking in tongues. I have done so on many occasions. Each time my eyes were closed, I felt at great peace, and my tongues had like lost control but it wasn't bad and sounds were coming from my mouth that weren't just noises but like another language and it just flowed so naturally even though I dont know what i'm saying. Also is there any explanation for shouting, Holy Ghost dancing, things like that. Where the person experiences extreme joy and starts speaking in tongues or screaming or saying Glory or Hallelujah or something and they stomp all around and their arms sometine flail and they like bow, but they never hit stuff or people even though their eyes are closed. Is their a reason how can people run around and not hit stuff with their eyes closed. These people are some of the nicest and holiest people I've ever met. I wanted to know if this is the Holy Ghost or something in the mind.

You want to go to Church and believe something, knock yourself out. But spewing "Biblical Babble" as the answer to how someone else should live their life is not a good thing, no matter what you believe.

What rights does a father have in consideration of abortion? Does he have the right to stop the abortion from happening? Does he have the right to know of the pregnancy before termination? How about after?

About 15 years ago, I heard a guy talking about a U.S. military tunnel that runs from a place called "Dreamland" in Nevada, to Ewards AFB, then to Seal Beach weapns station, to someplace under the ocean off CA. He was saying that the military could move top-secret test aircraft underground from a test area in Nevada, to a test area in the ocean. Supposedly, there is some kind of launch pad elevator in the sea at the end of the tunnel.
Has anybody heard this story? Is it true?

I am a Muslim child. There are always people making fun of me because of my beliefs. I don't attack them or anything. I just keep myself under my control, and serenly respond to their everlasting antics. This is also a problem with Jews and other minority (in the U.S.) religion followers.

"There are also people who are born with pedophiliac tendencies -- but that doesn't mean that pedophiliac behavior is okay!

Just because people are born with the orientation toward a given behavior, doesn't mean that the behavior is acceptable or even healthy.

And there's no question that homosexual conduct severely cuts people's life span and puts them at much greater risk for a whole host of deadly diseases."

Any response to her obviously ignorant reponse?

I have possesion of a book that he really needs to see,and I believe it is the only copy of it left in the world. I don't want to just send it through the mail, and really need to see that he gets it personally. Any help would be appreciated. No kidding this is a real question. I have tried to contact through various religious centers,but don't get answers. This is an out of print book that has many facts and photos of him and about him from tibet. I wish that he could have it. I want to make a gift of it . I don't want to be paid for it. How I got the book is a story in itself, and partly because of the way it came into my life, I have become certain that this is something he needs to see.

Do you ever feel like your "special" like that you are a wise soul and that you seem to know soo much about life you just cannot remember it yet? and That you are here for some specific reason you just dont know for what. Sometimes I feel this way. I feel like somehow I have some type of "gift" and that sometimes I feel so invincible like there are many spirits and angels watching me and that I know some type of deep truth but Im not sure what that is yet. Am I even making sense? Its hard to explain. I feel like I am here for one purpose and that some higher power (maybe god) really wants me to do SOMETHING (not sure what) before my life is over. Anyone else ever feel this way?
