lk 20;38.he is not the god of the dead ,but alone god of the living ,for to him all men are alive [in him shall all men live/]
when we die it is sad that men dont know the spirit accends strasight into heaven ,into the light ,but not all men some of thier own belief are borne into the darkness ,as they of stubborn belief believe.
it is for the dead not accended into the light we have fun-erals ,some are so attatched to thier flesh ,that words alone cannot convince them they are dead ,but words must be said ,of love and duty ,thus the dead in spirit may yet realise life eternal
the dead must be comforted ,those living in belief are allready home ,thus any prayer service for the trully dead must offer hope ways and means unto salvation due unto all equally
they especially must be told to ask god in prayer to help ,let them know god is love and needs but to be asked and help is realised
if prayer is too poetic and irrelivant the unbeliever ,remains in delusion he is yet living flesh

In a gay male relationship, do the partners always adopt the same roles, as in one giving, one receiving, or do they swap round ?

I hope nobody is offended by this question, but I've always wondered and it's not the sort of question you can ask somebody you know !!

Thanks

Don't laugh St Paul converted you know?
I think islamicists would go into denial.
Atheists would stand on their heads
some church groups might be singing "Alleluia"I suppose.
Do you think Bush and the Yanks would forgive him?

For bridging gaps between the two cultures, trying to make more room for civilized, neutral dialogue between westerners and Muslims, I want to know what are the fears and concerns that the west have towards Islam so that we can refute these misconception in an honest , correct and simple way.
I believe western media has only been showing one side of the truth and that there maybe other sides that non-Muslims still need to know about Islam in a way to change traditional "stereo types" that has only been leading to more conflicts between both ends.

Is Islam a religion of terrorism? Then why has it been the most up growing religion in the west "Europe & USA" in the last few years? Why there are still some people at the west who make Islam their first choice? What are the facts that westerners will be shocked to know about Islam? All these questions I am sure the western media has never been open enough to answer, we want to answer them for the sake of a more peaceful life.

According to Buddhism, you can't have any attachments if you want to reach enlightenment. Does that mean that if you're happily married with a loving wife and kids and a great job that you can kiss enlightenment goodbye?

Surely someone in that situation would be happier and healthier than someone in solitude with no 'attachments'?

This used to be a cool site for GLBT to ask real questions of other GLBT, but now is being trashed and GLBT are not only letting it happen but adding fuel to the fire by answering back to those who are trashing the site.
When will my fellow GLBT's grow up and just ignore these people or do like to play their "little" games too?

At our visit to a local theme park, we notice that some of “the youth of today” seem really out of hand. On 2 occasions we were watching some sideshow acts. At the first one a lad around 12 was being very rude to the performers. You could tell the crowd we getting upset with him, and then more of his friends joined in this banter. And at the second it was a young girl around 13 , she was telling the act to F-Off and that they are perverts. There was nothing wrong with the act. It was a magic show. The people we putting pins etc through their skin. But she picked the wrong act to pick on. The act when out of their way to show the girl up, and it worked. She walked of and the crowned cheered. It was so funny. It was so sad that is what we have come too? All throughout the day, so of these teenagers were doing drugs as you could smell it as you walked by, there was a fight with a group over jumping a Q. What has gone wrong? Are the parents letting their kids do this at home? I am only 33

I am 15 years old, and I am a new convert to the LDS Church. I am the first and only member in my entire extended family. I know Kolob is a star, but what exactly is its significance? Is it the Celestial Kingdom? I read the portion in the Pearl of Great Price, but I still don't understand.
