i am in an interfaith relationship. my husband is jewish and I am catholic. we've decided to raise the child to be jewish. i never converted to judism. so while the child will be raised and educated on judiasm, i still want to celebrate the holidays and traditions that i celebrated growing up - like having a christmas tree. my husband worries that this will confuse our child. i think that this exposes the child to other religions and if explained clearly won't confuse the child. Does anyone have thoughts/experiences with this?

Like a gift that says good luck. Or that symbolizes it. Thanks! Hope that made sense.

This is the way I comprehend what the bible says about blaphemy. Blasphemy against the Son of Man Meaning Jesus is forgiven, but Blasphemy against the Holy Ghost is not forgiven. So Jesus was referring to "knowledge". He is saying that when someone has recieved the Holy Spirit and then speaks against it. It will not be forgiven! But if someone who has never known God and speaks against him it is forgiven right? Sense a person had knowledge of God and chose to speak against him it is unforgiven. So what is the difference between a reprobate mind and Blasphemy? Or are they basically the same? A reprobate mind is when someone has crossed the point of no return!

this is not an insult of some kind, i have very much respect for Chinese people, so please before you jump into any negative conclusion, read all. thank you.

i've never been to Hongkong, but i would like to go there and visit some places. my main concern is how to communicate with people there. i was told that very few people speak English there, and i just want to confirm if it's true by asking here. do Chinese people in Hongkong know how to speak English?

Why do people define other people just by their race? its stupid why should my colour define who i am, im much more defined by my horoscope or where i come from. Why do people do this, is based on ignorance, or is this labelling designed to keep some races down or am i wrong. Is it that every race , has an exact way how they're are supposed to act.

Also what do you think most defines you? e.g. colour creed location etc

For Christmas, I'm giving my 20 year old boyfriend of 4 months a scarf (that I knitted myself and is something that he's been looking for) and handmade sweet, romantic "coupons" from myself (ex: kiss, dinner for two, etc.).

My questions are: Is this something a a guy would like? Should I get him a little something else? And if yes, any ideas?

Any help/opinions would be really appreciated. Thanks in advance!

It is true. Scientist prove it long time ago. What is problem? Why argue with real fact? Evolution do not mean your god is dead.

OK, so, scientists/athiests are super-confident that evolution can explain just about everything-- starting with the origins of life. Now I must say, I am personally not totally averse to evolution, in fact, I think it is a solid theory theory that can explain many things. However, the fact is, there is no way humans came about by evolution or that life came from non-life sheerly by pure coincidence. A leading British mathematician puts the chances of this happening at around 1 in 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000. Besides, scientists have never been able to synthesize amino acids in the presence of water, or create life from non-life. Also, humans are so special, there is no way they came about through chance. Now getting to the actual question. If evolutionists are so confident in their theory, then why do they get all annoyed when people say that some sort of creationist theory should be taught alongside evolution?

How do you worship Poseidon?
(I face the ocean each day and praise him with song and dance.)

How has Poseidon touched your life?

I'm just curious. I guess i've never really encountered a person with wiccan beliefs. I also don't really wanna spend 20 bucks on a book to find out, so it would be nice if anyone could explain the gist of the religion to me here.

thanks.
