My grandmother married a man when I was arround 10, he is a mormon and she converted to his church. I have been to the church when I was younger and as I have gotten older learned a little more about their beliefs, which I dont agree with. I like the people, for the most part they are very kind. My grandmother is very overbearing, the type that wants you to do what they say when they say it, I love her very much, but I dont want my small children 8 and 6 to attend her church. I find every excuse in the world to not let them go, but she is persistant in finding out why they cant go and where we will be, etc. If I tell her that I think her religion is very off base in what I believe in (christian) then it will be a fight and I feel like I will hurt her feelings. She also watches my children after school for free for about two and a half hours. Can you help me find a way to tell her that I dont want them going, without a fight and hurt feelings?

My dad tells me that I should hang out with Christian friends (at lunch, for example) and only hang out with non-christians once in a long while. I believe this is because he wants me to have the positive influence of Christian people, but then where is the time for Ministering? Jesus ate and drank with sinners, did he not? He had not come to save those who were well, but those who were sick. Am i Right?

Like there are certain names that would sound really strange on a caucasion person but on an african person it sounds fine...and the other way around. * same way with an african name with a hispanic person or a hispanic name with a caucasion*

Why are some people so against Pagan religions such as Wicca? What is it they dont like exactly?
Are people still so uneducated about other religions they believe all Pagans are Satanists?

A few weeks ago I had a dream about a male deity, and it seemed very personal and quite comforting. I wont go into details, as I know that if it does mean something, it should be kept secret.
I was curious if anyone has ever been 'contacted' via dreams by their Gods/essess.

It's very common for people who define themselves as heterosexual/homosexual to occasionally be attracted to the other gender, or to experience passing attraction to the other gender and then outgrow it. But that's not the same as someone who has been consistently attracted to one gender their entire lives. Someone who is attracted to one woman for every 20 men and declares herself bisexual is not the same as someone who is consistently attracted to both genders. So isn't it time to stop labelling ourselves as hetero/homo/bi and instead accept that sexuality is a gradient and everyone is different?

"Can ghosts really walk among us and glide through walls?" How many people belive what they read in that article is true? For one, I think it is so dum.

If you are willing, please read verses 22-42.
But please read at least verse 33.
http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?book_id=50&chapter=10&version=31
It is foolishness for us who are here, walking the earth 2000 years later to argue over this.
I concede that Jesus never said "I am God" but verse 33 makes it clear that those who were standing before him listing to what he had to say interpreted his words to be a claim of divinity.
Who are we to read this and disagree with them.
We weren't there. They were.
May God bless you.

It's named after his father, but town council says it is offensive.
Maybe original name, "House of Long Wang" would be less offensive?
maybe you have some suggestion?

Yet I saw NO protests over Abu Ghraib from any christian group. Over two thousand Iraqi CIVILIANS died just in September. All quiet on the Christian front. I'd like to understand why people get upset over one type of life over another.

I know this would be an absolute no no to a person actively practising Bible based Christianity. I'm interested in what you would make of it as a believer in God in general, Hindu, Jew, Muslim, Buddhist, or even an agnostic. Do you think that a person can be close to God in any way, and use an avatar's name in vain?

She was saying her benefit claim has not been succesful and she has to apply again. And she has to wait another two or three weeks. She has not got any money to for day to day living ... plus .. she is pregnant for six month ... she could not get a crisis loan from the JCP either. I went inside the office ... Many of the Job Centre Plus workers sitting in front of the computer for nothing ... some of them reading Novels and others may be on the internet and 4 floor managers and two security guards were having laughs about another unemplyed person who was trying to get some information.
I had a quick chat ... they said all payments managed by Glasgow office ... St Marylebone Job Centre Plus do not involve in paying benefits!!
Should the Goverment Departments take a look at the Job Centre Plus Services?
