Yes, I am a Jehovah's Witness. I am not afraid of entering into an elders meeting. If what I am doing is wrong I have no problem admitting that and changing my course. You seem to know quite a bit about us, why are you not with us? Hurry and answer before yahoo deletes my question. I'm not able to reply to you personally.

Our youngest is 14 two months shy of being 15. Its her second year in high school and she is all about the social sceen. We placed her on restriction for a week and Friday, she decided to leave us a not saying that sorry, she knows she is going to be in trouble but had plans with her friends. We have taken away her cell phone, Comptr, and sent her to her dads to stay for a while. In her letter she said she is will to lose anything except go live with her father. I as a Step/Mom think if she cant follow the rules then she needs to be with dad. Her dad is extreme and doesnt allow her to have a life period. Her mother is now feeling sorry for her. She still have no regret for her actions and views everthing like we are just trying to get in the way of her social life. She goes out and exceeds her curfew several times. How can we make her take responisibilty for her actions?

What is the difference between

Piesas
Chicano
and
Pocho?

Are these terms offensive?

My BF is Mexican-American and he's been called a "pocho" yet his mother says she is "chicana" and recently I heard his mother refer to some Mexican men as "piesas"

My BF says he cant explain. Could you briefly elaborate?

I've had 3 crushes in the past, they all left me, and the reason was that i can't keep what pops into my head from coming out of my mouth! with one crush i almost was going to date, i said "I want to have Sex with ____!" immediately when she heard that she left me. only one of them liked me, but i was forced to give her up, simply because we happened to meet at a mental hospital! and now, i can't even forgive myself for these verbalizations. and i'm very sad and lonely! can't any of you help me?

Why is it that the gospels written by Thomas, Mary, James and the similar ones like that are avoided from a regular Bible? Is it due to Heretical reasons? Or because their authenticity has not been proven ? Please give me a detailed explanation. Or anyone can contribute.

For all you skeptics out there, Israel is your last sign. How can such a small nation cause such enormous shockwaves across the entire world. Israel is the "center of the world". Israel is infamous in Europe and famous in America. The quest for the prized Jerusalem is the source of this middle east conflict(everyone knows it) cant you skeptics see Bible prophecy unfolding before your very eyes. Israel will never lose Jerusalem until the very last hour, when Israel's Great King will return to restore it!!!!! Keep your eyes on Israel ,unbelievers , for the welfare of Israel is the key to welfare of the rest of the world!!!! Israel has been through things as a nation that would have wiped any other nation long ago!!!!! Open your eyes,skeptics, and see that Israel's survival has been supernaturally devised. Israel was never suppose to survive as a nation but some Higher Power has other plans. Israel is a target to many but a light to few. Skeptics , Israel is your last sign.

You know when you head for the abortion clinic that you're killing a human being. So, why do you use the validation of a sinful "society" to validate your murder?

I am a poor man but I work hard to provide for my family, lately my cab broke down and I can't afford to have it fixed, I have now no income. Loans that I could avail entails 120 percent interest! Sure a killer rate huh! Can you blame me if I beg my relative and friends to help me? If still I got no help from any, can you blame a poor man if he succumb to doing illegal to support his family? If there is sick in the family and medicines are to be bought for a sick kid, will you reject or ignore him if he comes to you if he is your relative? Will you judge him negatively? Truely how will you react to this man? and how should a Christian react?

They say that when its your time to go you go. So I was wondering if there was such a thing as an accident. Such as a car accident, and you die...was that your time to go or was that just an accident? And if it was your time to go why was it so violent?

I couldn't sleep last night and happened to stumbled upon the show. I found the episode really entertaining and am curious as to how others perceive it.

inventions can always be improved upon. The bottom line is customer satisfaction, and to get your product out there before the market bottoms out. You can sit on an idea too long while someone else steals it. I'm just trying to keep a lid on things while I am still flush with ideas. Don't pooh pooh my idea.

Mohammad was neither a pedaphile nor warmonger. That 9 year old girl never became his wife until she matured into womanhood. She was promised t oMohammad by his close friend Abu Bakr when she was 9, but they did not marry until she was grown.

The only war Mohammad fought was against attacking Jews who despised his message. They attacked first, he defended himself and won. Instead of killing the vanquished, he urged them to move to another city, and to leave Medina to the Muslims. They complied and stayed alive.
