The other day I had to use a public restroom, even though I really try to avoid it. The man in the stall next to me kept making very foul noises and then kept trying to talk to me. He was saying things like "Oh man, we are rocking the house!" and "This is the kind of dump they write about in Newsweek magazine!". I politely asked him to not speak and he said that he and I were "Bathroom Brothers" and that we were gonna start a club. I said no but he said it was too late, he had a webpage and he was gonna put my pic on it with a track of really gross noises. "Everyone is going to know how you and me love taking dumps in public restrooms" he said. He then said "Are you ready ro rock the world?" Then he walked out of his stall and kicked open mine, took my picture on the toilet and ran out. I have spent the last 5 day seaching the web but haven't found it. I am so mortified, what should I do!?!? What if my wife, friends or fellow workers see it! Is there anything legal I could do?

I stopped being with the church for 3 weeks and I am not going back. I need words of "encouragement" from anyone, to tell me that I did the right thing. I was thinking "how cool is it to become an atheist", where I wouldn't believe in a God so whenever I fail in life, I have only MYSELF to blame. I don't want to hurt God anymore so I'm running away......

I've seen this dyke lesbians that try to much to move like men, and don't want to look any feminine. It's stupid because even men do feminine moves sometimes. so why do they try to be so fake..

My husband and I have always had contract service with a local provider, but we don't use all of the services (yet we pay for them). We are considering pre-paid for us and our kids. Are they reliable phones and how do they compare in cost to contract phone service?

...because it's at the root of overuse of resources (gas, oil, water, real estate, etc., etc).

I imagine you can think up as many examples of this as I can.

If few people = lower demand, why is it that so many people seem to think the answer to gas shortages, destruction of woodland, critical water shortages, horrendous traffic, overpriced housing, etc., is to have a baby?

I am completely serious, and I'd gladly read any thoughtful responses.

Terrorists or Unhealthy Diets and Fatty foods? I already know the answer....Now for all you crazy people out there, No I am not trying to downplay what the terrorists do but since we are so concerned about dying then why don't we also start a war on Fat? It kills young people..Old people Middle aged people. I know we have diets out thier but are we really taking it all seriously? Shouldn't we take it very seriously since it kills so many Americans each year. And finally shoudn't the American's who aren't fighting for us in Iraq spend thier time here trying to find out ways to help save and preserve life for everyone? or because it is a choice to eat unhealty or not that makes it not that big of an issue?

There is this boy at my school named Tommy who has been bullying me since 4th grade. He has called me fat, dumb and ugly. He has made prank calls to my house. During our school dance (I'm now in 6th grade) I was trying to talk to my 2 friends who we're slow dancing, and Tommy came up to me and said "SHUT UP EMILY! LEAVE!"
Since 4th grade when I moved to his school, I have been afraid to go to school. He has gotten his friends to bully me to. He got 1 boy to call me a lesbian. I'm not a lesbian, I have a boyfriend. Though 1 of his friends, Ryan, keeps telling them to stop, they don't listen to him. I have told teachers but they don't care. I scared to go to school. This really hurts. Help please.....

Adultery is having sex with another while married. My question was about why is sex out of marriage is banned when such activity is not mentioned in the bible beyond onanism. And yes, I have read it. Religiously!
