I work with a girl who is a similar age to me and i'm really physically and emotionally attracted to her but not sure if she is to me. we hold eye contact for a long time and always seems to want to pull on my cap (i wear a hat at work) she teases me alot about mainly sexual things about men(i'm not out and to pretty much everyone, i'm straight)
and the other day she was singing a song about kissing someone, and i looked up and she said with a smile, not you unless you wanna go out the back! I'm really confused one moment she can be quite nice and the next she ignores me completely. She always seems really happy to see me when i turn up to work. what do you think? any advice would be appreciated

Why do christians believe the world has been around for 5,ooo years when all scientific evidence proves otherwise. I guess if you are a christain and you dont agree with him then you dont count- but is this an attempt do disprove evolution theory? Dinosaur bones are WAY older than the oldest human bones.

I know they should not force you, and if you dont want to listen thats fine, its your choice. But you have to see it from the believer's point of view. They believe if you continue in your present state you will burn in hell, if you saw a car heading for the edge of a cliff would you not try and warn the driver?

Christians believe so. So they invent the DEVIL, SIN, PUNISHMENT, BANISHMENT, EVERLASTING FIRE, REBUKE, FORGIVENESS, FEAR.

God is a loving God. When he created the world it was GOOD. God does not know evil, and he is a loving God not a punishing God. Humans (christians) have created a man made GOD and believe he is like them. Punishing and to be afraid of.

How can you fear someone and love them at the same time. When you choose love hate or fear no longer exist. LOVE ia all there is. LOVE has no opposites. There is nothing for God to forgive you for. What humans call sin is simply a choice given by God. Your decision what is correct becomes your choice and your truth, not mine. Dont make judgement on anyones action, it is their actions that takes them on their journey of truth and closer to discovering LOVE. or GOD

If the HOLY BIBLE was so correct as most suggest why is there not one accepted way or journey to God. Why this debate of who or what is correct.

I can barely remember it, but it's about this guy and his girlfriend get lost in the woods, and they see all of these statues made of wood of little girls with horns kneeling and praying. And goes on from there, but later in the story he sees a video tape of his girlfriend chanting and as she's chanting there's this light behind her that gets brighter and brighter.

I can't find one good reason. I'm trying, seriously. I've looked hard, I've read the book, I've tried to make myself believe the prophecies, but no matter how hard I try, I can't. Is there something I am missing?

if we legalize prostitution in America, that their men will be more likely to cheat on them. I was talking to a girl and i said in countries were prostitution is legal, the rape rate is significantly lower than it is in America. She said she still didnt want it legalized because she was afraid her lover would be more likely to cheat.

commercializing your homes for the Winter Solstice which we hijacked in the name of replacing Jesus' non known but probable September birthday? If so, do you care that it's borrowed? I don't. Any time is a good time to say thanks to God for giving me his son.

Luke 22:25:
25"There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea.

This week it's been reported that there is a "tsunami" on the Sun, and that there is water on Mars. Last month, it was discovered that there is a new star galaxy being born.

What about the sea? What are we seeing in the sea?

How do you know that everything Jesus said was the absolute truth?

How do you know that his friends and followers, who wrote the Gospel decades after Jesus' death, weren't exaggerating or outright lying?

I know it's called "faith" but when you look at it from outside the box you're just listening to some guy's story. Is that really worth all of sacrifice and devotion? There must be hundreds of other prophets and holy books. Why do you only believe Jesus' story?

Our choices are decided by our memories. I feel that if we can't choose what we remember then a choice is not really being decided by us but by our limitations and extenuating circumstances.

It says in the bible that God created man in his own image....well how do we know that?.First off No one has seen God.....Did God explain to Adam that "hey adam...You can't see me but you kinda look like me" So I made you in my Image or was it just an assumption that he did. Also if thats true...did he mean complete Image or just partial?
