Are we not all just trying to be responsible for ourselves, whatever means we use for that? Would it not be fair to say that despite all the arguments that groups of people can have, we all know that we are being consistent in our thinking so that we can continue to think without any contradictions? That's how I am. I have to know what I believe so I can know how to be and what to do. What I believe is part of how I see myself. Then I have to try to see the rest of the world; the parts that aren't me; all the stuff outside of me. I don't know about you, but I'm always having to work my way through all of this "non-me" stuff that I find in the world, hoping that sometimes my beliefs will will work as nicely in the world as they do inside of me. If I find some of my beliefs that don't hold very well with what I see in the world, I will need to figure out why I have those beliefs, now wouldn't I? I have to take responsibility for what I believe. Do you?

I am a progressive liberal and I try my best to help people. I saw a documentary about how life for convicts is so hard after prison so I invited 5 of them to come stay with me until they get back on their feet. My wife and daughters were a little mad but it was the right thing to do. At first things were ok but now they are getting tough, the men stay up all night getting drunk and using my credit card to order prostitutes. They constantly steal my things and harrass my wife and daughters. One of them is now dating my daughter, which is great and I approve of interracial relationships, but she is only 18 and he is 38 and suffers from AIDS. The men always trash my house and showed up at my job once looking for money. While they were their, they attacked several coworkers which cost me my job. I have very little money left and am in danger of losing my home. Then the men had intercourse with mt wife. I know these men are not to blame, it is societys fault, and I want to help but how?

And then when I tell them I'm NOT, they INSIST that I AM!!! I mean, I think I'd know me better than anyone else. The truth is, I'm a female to male transsexual. So, I'm not sure if I should be flattered (because they think I'm a guy, just a gay one) or if I should be frustrated because it happens SO much. I don't even like going out to the gay clubs with my friends anymore cuz I get hit on by a gay guy EVERY time. Not that I'm homophobic towards gay men, PLEASE PLEASE don't get that impression. I'm very very gay friendly. However, I live in a very conservative place, Texas, to be exact, and it seems here with people, that if you are well educated, cultured, have good manners, treat people with respect, and speak in a slightly tenor range, and enjoy things like art, theatre, philosophy, fine wines and dining, and dress well that you MUST be gay. What should I do? I LIKE the fact that I like what I like, I don't want to be a typical guy, but I'd also like to attract a GIRL.

Without losing my salvation? Only answers from born-again believers, please. No agnostics or skeptics, please. And please tell me your denomination (but only if you want). It's important to me.

1) True that Muslims are not to use playing cards? What about cards that are NOT classic playing cards, kiddie cards like ones with fruits and animals on them? Friend says they are not allowed to touch these either even the kids. 2) True that they are never to listen to any kind of music and never supposed to dance (especially during Ramadan)? 3) Is it true that Muslims are not supposed to have their pictures taken? 4) Is it true that when viewing a movie a Muslim is not supposed to view any kind of affection between a man & woman, i.e. even a 4 second kiss fully clothed in a busy airport is considered to be pornographic and therefore they are not to look at it? 4) Is it true that Muslims are not supposed to keep any animals in the house? Not even a bird or a rabbit? 5) Is it true that the consensus of the Muslim community says that it’s OK to play violent video games but no playing cards? If you answer any of these questions can you please site your source? Thanks so much!

Sometimes we turn the dial on the radio to fast, and we hear only static, and become frustrared. If we turn the dial more slowly to search for music, at a slower approach, we located a station.

I considered how my experience of turning the radio is like listening for God. I desire to hear God's voive instead of the din of the world's static and noice.
Sometimes my life seems to move too quickly for that to happen. The more I practice being still in my daily life, the better I can discern God's voice among the distractions of the world.

Be still, and know that I am God.
Psalm 46:10
Do you listen more faithfully to God's whispers?
