Society & Culture - 3 November 2006

I see people dressed everyday, be it at offices or even in their own personal time. However, what I don't see is people expressing themselves in a creative way in either fashion or hair forms of expression. What happened to people expressing their taste in music and culture through their clothes and hair???

before you answer.. when i say missions i mean spreading the light of Gods word to the lost both here in the states and over seas.

think about this verse: "if you love your family mre than me you are not worthy of me"

are we christians willing to make family sacrifice to following Gods callign? or do we just leave it up to the single people to become involved in missions.?

i ask this because... i have been a missionary for two years now and i have been to numerous countries... i do see some families from the us that moved overseas because they felt God calling them there.. tyhen i met others who live in another country while their wife, kids,etc. are back in the states.

they got into missions because God called them ...

in away christians are called to be missionaries(not thw world view of missionaries) but the biblical view.. it is all described in the Great commission. where christians are supposee to go into all the world and preach the Gosple.

Is it okay for me to teach my younger cousin magick?

Nothing big! Just simple charms and candle magick. She's 10 years old and has been asking me to teach her for some time now. I have already told her about not using it for harm if I do teach her. I have even stressed keeping it a secret from her friends. I have also taught her TONS of things about dragons. But I have never taught her magick because I don't know if I should. She has never told any of the things I taught her to others, not even her parents.

What do you think? Should I teach her? Should I make her swear an oath of secrecy? Have I already told her too much? Is she too young?

I would appreciate it if people wouldn't use any rude remarks when answering my questions.

Thanks!

Remember their families to. There are a ton of us spouses without our soldier. The are even more children without their parent(s). Duriring this holiday season try to help them out too. They may not be in harm's way but they are sacrificing too. Trying to keep the holidays normal and festive is especially hard this time of year. For soldiers the holidays are hard, for the families is is almost harder. Because we have to make the holidays a certain way for are children's sake. So please offer a kind word, a helping hand, or any kind of heartfelt gesture. Will you please try at least?

thay cannot forgive or reconcile with their parents?

at d old students re-union i was surprised at the number of women who had a grudge against their mothers and the number who men who blamed their parents for their misery.

there was a woman who felt that her parents had squashed all her dreams when they paid for her brother's medical education. they had no money left for her, so she had to work for a living just after high school. the brother has moved on and now she has to look after her parents single handedly. she is glad she has them, but always wishes that they had paid for her education. as as kid she always wanted to give them a big house and happiness.

then there were people whose parents had seperated when they were small. they never had a parent, and have not been able to forgive the parent that brought them up for creating the vaccum in their lives.

the question is: with so much bitterness against their parents, will they ever be able to make it to heaven??

This is merely another notification that some people are going through questions giving a "thumbs down" rating to every question or answer that they merely don't like. I've seen perfectly respectful, reasonable answers marked with some person's hateful disapproval. There is a survey question in R&S today: What religion are you? and at least three people went through and gave a thumbs down to every answer they didn't like, which was almost every answer. I also noticed that recently, Yahoo added an ratings threshold to answer pages. They automatically set mine so that any answer with two more thumbs downs than thumbs ups gets collapsed from my view. I re-set it (five times now) to show ALL answers. And when I see a lot of thumbs downs on an answer, I give it a thumbs up for balance, regardless of what the answer says. I encourage others to help offset these negativity merchants with some positive votes for people's honest opinions. Freedom is in your mouse.

I have said "please don't take offense" (now a taboo phrase in my books) as the beginning of a perfectly peaceful conversation. But no matter how respectful and supportive I am, people immediately take offense. Oftentimes before I even mention the object of that reference or elaborate any further, people assume that they are to be offended by really off-the-wall things that I never said, implied, or thought about before.

Example: Talking about something which has been bothering me, I begin in a respectful manner with the words, "Please don't take offense.." then I see an offended look from my audience, and I am interrupted with, "You jerk .. You think I look fat .. I see it in your eyes." Or something like that; surprise!

Why do people make up reasons to be offended before I give any reason for offense or have a chance to say anything at all after the simple, respectful phrase, "please don't take offense?" or blow-up small things before I even get to the meat?

I see so many people in here that obviously don't understand gays in general yet they just continue to hang around. To me that means they haven't the sense to leave a party when they are not having fun. I worry about them and their mental capacities....
