My friend feels ashamed to go to church with me, because he hasn't gone to church for so long. He affraid that people will judge him, and look at him as an outcast. I told him it's nothing like that. They will welcome him. I don't know why he thinks this way. What should I say to him to convince him other whys?

Why do I deserve criticism and having people shaking their heads and looking at their watches around me? It's Sunday, I'm resting.

Years ago there was a rumour going around about the lead singer of the band 'soft cell'. It was said that at a gig on night he collapsed on-stage and was taken to hospital, where they found 5 pints of semen in his stomach - and this caused him to pass out!
I searched the internet and found many websites such as:
http://www.everything2.com/index.pl?node_id=996938
which talked about it and said he had to get his stomach pumped.

Can anyone shed some light on this once and 4 all? Do you believe it happened?

I need some help, I need to write about a Royal Wedding in the Medieval European times. I looked on Yahoo! search and Google Search but found nothing that helped. If you know anything about Royal Medieval weddings, or anything else that may help.

Thanks to all that help!

Every couple of weeks I go to the nail salon and have a pedicure and have either a refill or a new set of nails put on (I use pearl tips and pearl refills are horrible so once a month I remove my set and have a new one put on). I always ask for the same technician as she really does a great job. My bill comes to around $50 and I leave a 20% tip. I always pay by credit card and add the tip. I always put the technician's name at the top of the CC receipt so that the owner knows who the tip belongs to. I know that she will have to pay taxes on the tip, but that's only fair (I have to pay taxes on my salary and bonuses). My concern is that she won't get her tip. Can someone please tell me how this works? How can I be sure she's getting what's hers? I have been tempted to ask her, but I think that is really crass.

I am a 20 year old Christian and I am currently living with my Fiancee and we have planned a wedding for next July. The only thing is, I know that it is a sin to be living like this and no matter how hard I try to ignore it, God is really getting to me. I don't want to totally lose my spirit by living like this anymore, but I don't want to move out. It feels like if I were to get married at the Justice of Peace now, it would seem kinda dumb to get married again in July, like it wouldn't feel the same. Please give me helpful advice, especially from the people that have been in my position, Thank you so much!!

and keeps staring at you. This idiot man would pretend to stand outside my bedroom's corridor usually in the morning whenever I leave for work watching me despite a heated dispute we had earlier over litter and trash where this family had deliberately put underneath my bedroom window when I first moved in and this crazy family including wife and children keeps peeping into my house whenever my door is opened.

I feel they are psychologically imbalanced and especially this stupid married man keeps staring at me even when I turn my back.

or at least some theological scholars have made these claims. considering the bible claims the earth is only 12000 years old these claims concerning ufos dont seem so far fetched .if your religious leaders gave validity to these claims of et's being mention in the bible how would it effect your idea of the universe and your place in it

I hear voices sometimes, it's like I'm wearing headphones except I know I'm not. They usually say random, ordinary-type things but a few nights ago, two voices (both sounded male) said my name. What do you think this is?
Does this ever happen to you?

You know, like a board member of a community organization, a charity, an arts organization, etc.

Is there some sort of benefit besides "giving somethign back to the community?" Because it always seems to be people with "CAREER" on their minds.

Blame it all on the Zionist and then you won't have to accept responsibility for anything!

Give us a break. Who do you think you're fooling Muslims? We're onto you. When will you start taking responsibility for your actions and reform your religion?
