Defend its validity? Or click the abuse button out of spite, because you feel your faith cannot be defended, or you don't know how?

Which is it?

Like I really needed to ask.

i have a younger cousin who is very close to me, like a brother. we come from a fairly conservative family, fairly religious and homosexuality is not talked about openly by the older generation. however, i have had many gay friends and i think that my cousin should feel that he could tell me when he's ready. how should i make him feel more like he can talk to me about it if he wants to? i don't want to start bringing up the subject to seem like i'm searching for information, but i want him to know that he can if he wants to.

For example christianity uses the term God to describe their main deity and muslims use the term Allah for their deity. There are many others across many religions such as the japanese Kami and so on. During translations from one language to english I noticed that no matter the deity it's always translated into "God". Is this an appropriate translation or are the translators using their own religion to interpret another religion's/language's deity? Is it a mind set that "I believe that God is the creator of all so this other religion's creator of all must be my same God even though it's refered to in another name"? Try to be as respectful and honest as possible with your answers. Thank you.

We just moved into a place and the noise from next door was bad. We asked the office to ask them to quiet dow. They went over there and they did quiet down. For about 12 hours. Then my brother noticed loud bass over there the next night. He called the cops. The cops went over there and asked them to quiet it down. Didn't give them a ticket. They hardly quieted down. Then the next night, the guys moved a massive screen TV into their apartment and cranked it. We called the cops again. The cops said that they can't do anything about it because we live in an apartment. He would have to hear it from the outside. He couldn't. But he said the walls were very thin inside. He went over there and asked them to quiet down. Later, I wrote them an anonymous note explaining to stop the banging and loud bass. Now tonight we hear nothing but loud banging and slamming. I had to get out of there. What can we do? I feel trapped because they are doing this on purpose and getting away with it.

I have to read the following for religion homework:
Luke 23: 32-43
John 17: 6-26
Luke: 22: 31-33

They are intercession attitudes or forms of prayer w/e ... I think?

Some questions after reading them is:
"How does this attitude of prayer shape your relationship with others?" ... well I don't know because I don't see how it's related to other people.

"How is this attitude imporant in human relationships?" ... I guess it's important because the prayers are about other people not yourself?

And I have to write a prayer based on the attitude (intercession). Does anyone have any ideas? How do I write a prayer and about what and who???

Why do Protestant Christians follow the traditions of the Catholic Church such as Christmas, Easter, and the Sunday Sabbath when they are in fact protesting Catholicism? All of these traditions are nowhere to be found in the Bible. They were all adopted into Christianity during the late 3rd and early 4th century AD. An even a better question; why do you follow traditions that have replaced God's traditions with the traditions of Roman Emperors and Catholic Popes? The Feast of Redemption, Passover, and the Saturday Sabbath, which God commands us to follow, have been replaced by Christmas, Easter, and Sunday Sabbath, which Catholicism commands us to follow. As Protestants why do you follow Catholic Holidays over God’s biblical Holidays? Do you think God changed his mind and is willing to change his commandants and laws whenever he wants to? Or are Gods commandments infinite and never changing?

(Sorry, I have a lot of questions!)
