Pretty soon I'll be off Christmas shopping, but the problem is I spent loads of money this month (I'm not really sure what on) so I can't afford to buy anything expensive.

MY friends are all 14, and all quite girly. There are 5 of them I need to buy things for. We've agreed that we won't spend too much on one another, but all the same I'm having trouble finding something nice to give them.

Any ideas?

Oh and I have an allowance of £40 per month, but I don't want to spend all that.

I would like to first say I do believe in the existence of a higher power, something that has created us, I question religions and interpretations of the bible. Those people that tell me because of my different belief system I will end burning in hell for the eternity ,that is the biggest insult. What makes me really upset is when they talk about choice,number one I did not chose to be born, I did not chose life,life was given to me, if I was not born in the fist place I would have to hear about all this nonsense of being punished just because my mind set is different than theirs. I have already being punished, I was born with a genetic deformity, who created me? I do not care about life, life might be precious to you , it is not to me. So I am suffering already and I am supposed to be forced to believe in the God of the bible so he will not throw me in the lake of fire, how did I make a choice to be born? how did I make a choice to be born with a disease? I did I make a choice to be born in the family I was born? easy for the hypocrites to say I chose LORD as my savior the were not confronted with the challenges I HAVE BEING CONFRONTED WITH, if he your GOD did not put me in this earth in the first place I would NOT have to be tormented by the suffering caused by my disease and by the insults coming from those who tell me , with threats I deserve to go to hell just because I DO NOT BELIVE WHAT THEY DO. I 'd rather keep a different idea of God not the one that you present to me with your religion and with your interpretation of the Bible , that belief that I hold is the one that keeps me going in my life. You should be ashamed of yourselves to be preaching psychologically harmful things and keep saying but that GOD that said so, it is YOU THAT SAID SO not GOD.

And is it offensive in the eyes of Islam for a non-muslim to say it?

Also, what is the correct response to Assalam a Lakam (excuse the awful spelling, I don't speak arabic)

Take for example the argument that "They are sinning". Everyone sins and according to Christianity, the only one that will judge is God.

What about the commandment that says "Thou Shalt Not Kill", and stating that life begins at conception. Yes, but what about the fact that God gave everyone Free Will. Free Will to follow his word or stray from it. Free Will that allows any human to do as he wishes.

I find most religious arguments of why abortion should be banned irrelevant, when these religions tell us that we have Free Will to do as we want, and that the only one to judge is God.

I don't like abortions, I think they are wrong and not because of religious reasons, but I will not stand between a woman and her choice.

The bible says God already has our life planned, so isn't "what's going to happen, going to happen anyway?"

Ofcourse it's natural to have urge for sensual pleasures by looking at men/women in different manner than the rest. But, what makes our mind think that we should fulfil the desire for sensual pleasure which is aroused in mind by looking at men/women.

And if we go into depth of question, first of all, Why does our mind even get aroused for sensual pleasures. What's the reason behind it.

I am not talking here about erection, because erection only takes place after arousal for sensual pleasures. And once arousal is controlled eveything else can be controlled towards having sensual pleasures, e.g. erection.

I have purposely used the term sensual pleasure to include all activities related to to our pleasures.
