I've heard a lot of talk, specifically in the "da Vinci Code" sections, about how Christ could not have been married, because he was perfect and therefore a virgin. This talk also implies that he lusted after Mary Magdalene - as humans do. He was not God, he was a man; specifically engineered, so I'm told, to be a human male. So why is it so impossible for religious believers to accept that he was exactly that? Jesus was a human man, and therefore had human emotions and lusts. It does not darken his position in the least.

I wanted to check out a Reform or Conservative synagogue but I thought the service might be in Hebrew. Are there some services in English?

For not respecting & mistreating women? What about these verses in the bible, Deuteronomy?
But if a man find a betrothed damsel in the field, and the man force her, and lie with her: then the man only that lay with her shall die:
26 But unto the damsel thou shalt do nothing; there is in the damsel no sin worthy of death: for as when a man riseth against his neighbour, and slayeth him, even so is this matter:
27 For he found her in the field, and the betrothed damsel cried, and there was none to save her
If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, which is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found;
29 Then the man that lay with her shall give unto the damsel's father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife; because he hath humbled her, he may not put her away all his days.
So if a man rapes a non-virgin, then he is put to death, BUT if he rapes a virgin, then he must pay her father & marry her? How is THAT fair?

Could ALLAH ignore the social evolution of the woman? Didn’t ALLAH know that the woman would be educated and occupy positions of work in the world. In our society, women occupy all positions. She is a physician, a research scientist, a cabinet minister, a prime minister, even a queen and a head of state.

yarmulkas, burqa's and large crosses in all public places? And, what would such a ban achieve?

This is a growing debate in some European countries with the most recent one in Amsterdam where the "burqa ban" might be going into effect soon.

My parents don't know that i'm a lesbian. But i've told my mom that i've made out with a girl and told her the name of the girl. But my mom got all freaked out about it saying that she was going to take me to church. ANd for me to stop hanging out with her. Well that didn't stop me and i went and i was living with her. We were been scammed by our roommates and decided to live with my mom. Now that same girl lives with us. I don't know if my mom know or not. Oh yeah my parents are seperated. I don't know if my dad knows too. So i need advice to know if you all think that my parents know if i'm a lesbian or not. .....what do you think?
