Is there a state that provides the best access to services for disabled adults, ( ie, group homes, supported employment and day programs) while offering a great environment to live and work in.

Early biblical texts describe heaven in concrete terms — an arching vault supported by pillars at the ends of the earth.

For those who believe that Jesus and God are the same person, how can you comment the clear distinction that the same Jesus made between Him and God in the Gospel according Mark:

Mark 10:17As Jesus started on his way, a man ran up to him and fell on his knees before him. "Good teacher," he asked, "what must I do to inherit eternal life?" 18"Why do you call me good?" Jesus answered. "No one is good—except God alone. 19You know the commandments: 'Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not give false testimony, do not defraud, honor your father and mother.’ “
In the text following, they are again distinctly separate because it is God to give the revelation to Jesus:
Revelation 1:1The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants what must soon take place.

OK, here's the deal...
I have problems with my father.
I am gay and I haven't told him yet. I am studying and working abroad, and I have been in a relationship for a year and obviously I dont need money since everything is shared and thus cheaper.
He is always asking my mom how come I don't ask for money, and he wants to visit me (he says that he misses me, but it is obvious that he wants to do his own search on things...if he wanted to see me that bad he would offer to pay for my ticket to go back home and see the rest of the family). I dont want to tell him I am gay for 2 reasons:
1. He is very homophobic, he would not accept it. I know because once he found a porn cd-rom a friend of mine forgot in my room and it happened to have some gay ads...(it was not gay porn, it was straight porn it came with a magazine, but when my father checked he saw the gay ads) and freaked out. He called my sister yelling at her because he thought she might now, and he created a huge fuss.

I dont practice any organized religious doctrines, I do believe that God IS everything. Other than a deist waht am I. Anyone else feel this way. The only thing wrong with christianity is it sounds too fairy tale like, and cartoonish

I am a practicing Christian, but have studied other religions as well. Muslims study and believe the Old Testament, and they believe that Christ was a prophet of God. Jews worship the same God that Christians do. Catholics worship the same God that Protestants do. Jews, Catholics, and Protestants all have very different forms of worship, but each acknowledges that the other is worshipping the same God. What is the basis for believing that Allah and God are different, instead of believing that it is the same God being worshipped in a different manner?

How do you reconcile the differences between the conscious spirit of an angel or other spirit creature and the spirit of man? Why do you consider mans spirit similar to a "spark" with no conscious qualities? If not in spirit, what is the context of the scripture describing man as being "created in the image of God"?
