Who can give me either:
A) an analysis of a bible passage and why explicitly masturbation is sinful

or

Thanks

As I have stated before my daughter is 25 years of age and people just really do not like her for any reason at all. I have just received a few yahoo messages from people wondering why her co-workers and people in general were trying to pick fights with her. I am sorry that I failed to tell you all before the reason why she gets picked on. The reason why she is being attacked by people is because they says that she's ugly and she is kind of shy. Although if you were to see her, she just looks like an average normal person.

If you think waitress are crabby, could it be because of the cheap people who don't leave a tip? If so, do something about it and give your waitress a good tip to cheer you up. Trust me, she (or he) will be glad to see you the next time you visit!

I've seen people at baseball games and other sporting events praying to God for so and so to hit a home run etc. Does God take sides? Doesn't He have more important things to do than have Carlos Beltran get a bases-loaded hit?

I believe in God and would like to start going to a Christian church. The problem: I have been living with my finance for five years. We have two children together and I want them to grow up knowing God. We live in a very rural area. My boyfriend doesn't really believe in God. I convinced him to try going to church with me and he agreed. When we went we were told that because sex before marriage is wrong if we weren't willing to get married within a month or so we weren't welcomed back. At other churches now it seems everyone is so disapproving that he wont even try any other churches.
My question: Should I wait to go to church until we are married? I would like to be married in a church but hate the feeling of being judged because I made a poor choice to live with someone before being married.
For financial reasons we are waiting another year before getting married. I want a nice wedding, and wont just go to the justice of the peace as the preacher suggested. Any help?

If you have a family that is half-black, half-Italian and two of the siblings have a child together, would that child be mostly white because of the nature of genetics? Meaning, would the recessive white gene be dominant in their offspring?

There is NO retardation in the child. NONE. So don't include this in your answers!

that's a verse translated from Quran my friends

Say ye: "We believe in Allah, and the revelation given to us, and to Abraham, Isma'il, Isaac, Jacob, and the Tribes, and that given to Moses and jesus, and that given to (all) prophets from their Lord: We make no difference between one and another of them: And we bow to Allah (in Islam)."

So do u believe now that Allah is the same god u worship too

About a year ago he was diagnosed with cancer. He's gotten through that, but the chemotherapy left him with lupus. Now, we talk all the time, we are deeply in love, we usually get to see each other at this point about once a week (right now it's been nearly two, which is probably why I feel so awful right now).

How do you deal with this? How do you deal with someone who is sick? How do you deal with the pain of watching them suffer, knowing there's nothing you can do about it? Yeah, I've been going through it in varying degrees for a year. But I have nobody around me who can relate to this...anyone out there who's been through this before?

To everyone I've been curt with tonight...I apologize. This is weighing on me heavily right now and it's affecting my mood.

Also, the only support group for this sort of thing that fits with my weird work schedule and is less than an hour away doesn't want me because we're not married. We don't live together.

I work at this part time job where i have my own schedule and can leave and go to work whenever i want, and my boss doesn't keep track of my hours. Lately, i've been really selfish and took advantage of him never counting my hours, so i put down hours on my time sheet that i never worked and basically have been stealing hours. So now this week, i skipped a day and put down hours for that day and one of my co-workers told my boss that she didn't see me at work, now im afraid that my boss is going to get suspicious and start asking other co-workers if they saw me there, although they don't really pay too much attention since im practically invisible to everyone else, im afraid that someone might notice i didn't work. What should i do to avoid getting fired, or what should i say to my boss if he questions me about this next time i go to work??? And yes, i already know what i did was wrong, and has already been done so there is nothing that can take it back....ANy good advice??

They distroy all the other fertilized eggs and distroy them and just implant one of them. Isn't that like several abortions to have a chance for a child
