she has a bottle of vodka in her hands. When I asked her to please stop drinking, she says that with a daughter like me, she has to drink. I don't know what she means.

Do you assume that people who make grammatical errors perhaps didn't have the money for or means of obtaining an education? Do you assume that they may be using English as a second language? What other assumptions have you made?

Even in the Holy Bible itself it's full of God's commands that degrade and shame women. Such as, if a woman gets divorced and marries another guy she is automatically an adulterer. Well what if the woman married a very abusive man that treats her like a slave and dirt, makes her sleep on the ground, ect and abuses her physically emotionally sexually or one of those, Will God still look down on her as an adulterer of she decides to leave him for her own safety?

It also says in the bible that women should cover their heads, and be silent in church. Well is God gonna condemn women if they decide to be a pastor and a public speaker glorifying His name?

It also says in the old testament that women who are raped should marry the rapist. Is that God's command? Or somewhere it says keep the women and children for raping and slavery.

Wouldn't it be better to be an animal instead of a woman? Look at meerkats, the male is attentive to his mate the dominant female.
Thoughts?

THERE IS MORE HERE THAN MEETS THE EYE

I asked "if there were any muslims who loved american culture". He responded with intense intense hatred for America ("mother of all terrorists"..etc) as opposed to something like "Yes I love America but hate you". http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AtxPD3z.LY.dNwU7eNqaLW7sy6IX?qid=20060829101948AAJWirU

Now...think about that people, I get that he hates me...so if he responds with "your a hater, bastard, kafir infidel jew hindu...", i get it...thats one thing.

But see how he responds? He responds with hatred for America...the highest highest kind. If youve been to Yahoo Q and A, youve seen him post this stuff for over a year, prepared Anti-USA hate propaganda. Leftists...am I right?

Biomimtek says he lives in America and believes Islam will change it...if you think his view is a minority position, you know nothing about Islam....study it.

Do any other white people get tired of too many white people being sterotyped as racist for the stupidest things? I'm not racist, and I'm sick of people acting like the only racist people in America are whites. If racism is to be ended, it's going to take an effort on all parts-blacks, mexicans, asians, whites. Other races need to face up to the fact they are often just as racist as any other bigot.

We are both virgins, and we agreed not to have sex for some months, but everytime we are in the apt somehow we start hugging and cuddling, next thing we know we are almost about to have sex. I'm a jock, I've suggested going play basketball, or jogging, baseball, or some other sport, but he's not athletic at all. We only have going out to dinner and the movies. We already agreed to lose one's virginity one to another, but the way things are going, we might not be able to wait th months we had planned.

What can we do to distract ourselves and spend the least amount of time in his apt?

What are some good couple activities?

I have finally decided to be missionary. Before I reveal you my plan, I would like to thank all you of you who advised me and have prayed for me regarding the message I recently sent in under the title of “Is God calling?” Yes!! I have even decided to commute myself to him. So now I am going to be missionary. From a Muslim family, I became Christian when I was 12 years old. My parents didn’t like this but I didn’t give up! Some years later I decided to be priest. I spent there also some five years in priesthood training I couldn’t carry on simply because my rector was unable to get along with me! I was forced to leave the seminary but I was not sacked. Since I left seminary I have been praying and asking God to help me find my way. Trough my Sundays preaching and my personal desire to proclaim the Gospel I have come to realize that God is finally calling me to be missionary. I mean missionary by going where people do not know Jesus yet. In my country (Mali West Africa) Christian are only 3% out of 97% of Muslim.
In one month time, I am going for evangelization! So please if there is anyone who is willing to help me with some prayers book, Bible, Jesus Film Projector or any other thing that could be useful for my mission, I would be very grateful. Please do not forget to pray for me.

Prayerfully yours,
Help me answer my call

I am planning a get together at my house with the younger women in my church (30 -50 years of age). Most of our members are much older. The topic will be "Daughters Of The Most High". I have been searching scriptures on being a daughter and so far Esther, the 4 daughters of Philip, Psalm 45:13(kjv) have been the result. Any insight on this topic would be most appreciated. God has blessed my family with a new apartment with enough space to have such a gathering. It is something that is much needed in my local fellowship because most of the members are much older (60 and up). My pastor's wife has been saying for some time that the younger women needed to get together and God has put it on my heart to do it. I want it to be a blessing that will minister to us and draw us closer to God and each other. Thank you in advance for your answers.
