or make money? Studying Catholicism I noted that in general to pursue making money as an objective was always taught that it was wrong in contradiction with the Church practice of becoming rich and avoiding their riches to be split, which is why priests were later in Catholicism prohibited to marry and have children as they inherited wealth, the Church's wealth. In Judaism and other Christian faiths this view was different and pursuing material gain was not taught to be wrong. Are your conclusions similar or different? if so, describe the differences.

My hubby has a fantasy that he should take me on a full moon day to a riverside or seashore and have fun there - nude dance and intercourse in open on the sand. If it is revier side, he wants to put half body in water and half on sand while coupling. If it is seashore, he wants the waves to wet us when we are busy with our sex game. I have a mind to agree but afraid some one may see. What shall I do?

Lord knows I don't want or need the responsibility of having to pass my religion on to my children--what an unnacceptable burden that would be! We send them to school for a reason--so that the teachers can raise them and we have time for more important things--I don't care if my kids have problems, or need guidance, they start whining and it's off to school they go! So of course the school should have to teach them religion as well--it's what I would do if I was raising them........................

I m not a Canadian either,and I m just wondering why ppl are so concerned about all those tiny matters: nationality or appearance?

I asked I a question and got serious responses, but then I got an answer that someone took for the wrong way. Should I be more specific in my questions or is there somthing else I should do to not be mistaken as a bad guy?

I went to college 4 years in Texas, and I just hated MTV. It's nothing but shows they rerun over and over, and hip hop, and more hip hop.
I learned to appreciate how Mexico doesn't have a music channel monopoly. There are several major music stations, MTV Latino is only the third one, and they don't play hip hop. Telehit is the major music network, and they have all kinds of genres, they play mostly Mexican pop, European music, American 80's music, and new American pop, and rock. The other one is EXA which plays mostly Mexican music on all its genres. Then there's MTV Latino which only plays a little bit of hip hop, and it's mostly Mexican and American pop. There are several minor music channel, and they are not bullied out of business like MTV does in the USA.
I know it sucks to have cable, and having only VH1 and MTV. In the USA, there aren't a lot of minor networks with different types of music like in Mexico.

Why don't Americans try to fight against the MTV monopoly?

Well, first off, I am a 23 yr old caucasian American girl who was born into Christianity. My whole entire life I have never felt a connection to Christianity and I have never been able to accept Jesus as my God. For the past 5 years now I have been researching Islam, reading the Qur'an and familiarizing myself with the Muslim religion. I feel that Islam is the religion for me, 100%. I, with all my heart, want to convert to Islam. However, I am afraid that I will not be accepted by Allah because of all the herendous sins I have commited in my considerably short life. Sins including drug use, being promiscuous, having a child out of wedlock, stealing and lying. I regret my sins so much that it makes me physically and mentally ill. I wish so much that I could be forgiven for my sins and live a pure life. So I guess what my questions are is, can I be a Muslim considering the horrible sins I have committed? Would a Muslim man be allowed to marry me? I am worthy of Islam? Please help me...

" Set your mind on heavenly things, not on earthly things."
O.K. so maybe that is not an official scripture, However, it is a concept in the new Testament and I have never completely grasped what it means. So, you have any answers?

my boyfriend of one year is acting odd. I found that he calls trannys online prostitutes and when I asked him - he said he just finds them different but just calls and has never met with them. I also found that he was calling a lot of online female prostitues all over the country. He calls female and transsexual prostitutes online and just hangs up according to him. He says he doesn't ever meet with them. He looks like such a man and acts so straight. He acts so conversative also. No body will ever think. He claims to be straight. He works as a neurosurgeon. Should I report him. Should I believe him or what should I do.

My g/f invited me to her place for Thanksgiving, since I don't spend time with my family for Thanksgiving since my mother passed away. She invited me and my roommate over, and when I knocked on the door, she didn't answer, and well..her bedroom window is right by the front door, and I heard her and someone having sex in her bedroom. Why would someone do something like that? On Thanksgiving even... I don't understand. And to top it all off, I think it was her and a straight guy! I'm so confused...angry, hurt...sad...what should I do?

Meaning, you were 110% certain they were straight but it turned out they were gay. And you were shocked.

Hi. I come from a wealthy family... starting with my grandmother's family. She has 4 sisters, and when they were growing up, lived in this rich place outside of boston called nahant. its right on the beach. She grew up with like 8 maids. When she grew up and got married, her father bought her another house right next to where they all lived, and my mom and family went there every summer for summer vacacion. Then, my great aunt has this other huge estate on the same road as where she grew up. My other great aunt, married a sucessfull doctor and they still live in their mansion though they are retired. And finally, my 4th great aunt lived in Venace in the 60's and 70's, but since then she moved back and now lives in a penthouse in boston. All of the mansions on nahant are still owned by my grandmother and her sisters, and we go there a lot. The houses are worth like 10 million dollars each, and we have like 6 of them.

How can i get more rich like them?
