Do you kneel and shout some big words with your hands up in the air.? Or do you hide in a corner with a cover over your head? tell me how you reach out to God.

Me and my boyfriend have been together for a year and a half. I'm 15 years old, he just turned 18 today. Some people are telling me that's illegal and he can get in trouble for it, but I heard that it's illegal if the person your with is 4 or more years apart from you. We're exactly 2 years and 8 months apart. But in this case, like i mentioned we've been together since he was 16. Can somebody tell me how all that works?

As I get older and having more responsibility to deal with, such as car payment, rent, bill, etc.. I can't spend money as I would normally. However, I don't like the idea of going Dutch, each paying his or her own way, its feels so distant and formal. It makes me feel as if I was on a business event rather than just hanging out with the guys.

My question is, when you go out with a group of friends, let say 5 to 7 people, do you each pay for your own wanting or do someone from the group picks up the tab then as the night progress, others will take turn when the time comes.

How do you deal with it?

im just tired about hearing that jesus did this and jesus did that..IT IS ONLY YOU WHO DOES EVERYTHING!! What is so hard to see that you and only you make up your destiny, and that JESUS and GOD have nothing to do with it...Even funnier...all you Jesus believers all say that GOD or JESUS gives you the freedom of choice but they fill your spirit with what is right or wrong.... why are you so scared to see it is only you? How could it be someone else other than yourself... You know........most people that are locked up for insanity suffer from delusions and believing that they hear "voices"...it is only you you hear...

Santa told me that someone would report this question as an abuse, and that others would click "thumbs down".

If you agree that Santa is the ONE TRUE GOD, and that your god is a false god, and you denounce him, click on the thumbs down button, or report this question as an abuse. Keep in mind that denouncing god in such a manner is blasphemy of the Holy Spirit, and is the only unforgivable sin.

Do you really want to take that chance?

Because I'm really getting the feeling that some people see it more like a magical box, and aren't "seeing" the paper and ink and general 'bookieness' of it...

Not to be rude or anything, just wondering...

I'm writing a paper for my diversity course and I've been looking into international racism. I'm specifically concentrating on discrimination of darker peoples by lighter peoples (even in Africa and India), which appears to be a worldwide phenomenon. I don't think there's much doubt that for all the world's diversity, the idea of beauty in whiteness permeates from Japan to Brazil. It seems to me the whole world (the majority of which) seems to prefer white to dark. Any thoughts on why, any firsthand accounts, or am I reading to much into it?

as time goes on...I personally believe b/c more and more males are becoming either gay or "meterosexual" (another word for gay, in the closet IMO). I mean they are wearing these "skinny" jeans MADE FOR GUYS (thats the gayest and most amazing part), its becoming more acceptable to come out and be this way. Also the fact that throughout time we have become weaker as a whole, just emotionally and physically, we have become more liberal and more "caring", which leads to less testosterone IMO. Anyone else agree? If not, whats ur reasoning behind this find?

Parents- teach their kid's to say that they didn't get as much as their friends did... Jesus taught- that the children should ask, "They didn't get as much as I did they should have more." True?

if everyone was a good religious person .. and you were a masturbator then you will go to hell ..

what do you think ?

note : I used masturbator word only to explain and compare a big sin with a small sin ... you can consider watching porn as a small sin in according to killing people ..

god: hey stan, i need a favor

satan: sure, what you need?

god: i need to test mens faith so, could you tempt them or something like that to see if they are loyal to me

satan: sure

Is this saying that you don't have faith in God to protect you, or is it okay to wear crystals for their healing properties as God placed them on the earth? Please back up your statements with biblical reference, if you can.

If the root of all evil is desire, then the only way to be rid of evil would be to exist in a state of neutrality. We need evil to know what good is, so if we do away with one we have to do away with both. Perhaps god is neutral, does anyone else agree?
