Gay guys, there was a really hot guy at the gym and when he went to take a shower...?

I stole his worn-out sweaty jock stap.

Have you ever done that (or anything like that) before? ; )

I feel guilty for stealing it but it smells so good.

If you're speaking with a lesbian and she seems to be checking out your breasts, what does that mean?

I encountered an openly lesbian neighbor in the hallway of my apartment. We had a conversation, in which she repeatedly glanced down at my chest. Now, I was wearing a VERY plain sweatshirt, and I checked in the mirror after this encounter -- no nipples were showing through the shirt. The only other thing I guess it could be is that I had on a very pretty, unique necklace. But her gaze seemed to be drifting constantly to the right of it, if you know what I mean. Is there anybody who can tell me if she was checking me out, or even possibly trying to send me a signal? I don't have any experience with this sort of thing, and I'm not an open lesbian, so she does not know where I stand, and I'm CONFUSED!

Portuguese: Obrigado vs Obrigada?

I'm trying to learn to speak Portuguese (the Portugal version) on my own. I can't afford those Rosetta Stone things. Anyhow, I'm getting confused on when Obrigado is used and when it is Obrigada. I know they're masculine and feminine, but... does it depend on whether the speaker is male or female, or whether you're speaking TO a male or female or is it something else entirely?

I took spanish all through high school and I think it is really making this harder for me instead of easier.

Thanks!

Is the quran truth or full of errors?

6) Angels cannot disobey allah:
Sura 16:49-50 says of the angels that "...They ALL fear their Lord, high above them, and they do ALL THEY ARE COMMANDED."

Here we are told angels NEVER disobey allah.

But, not suprisingly, the quran then says in Sura 2:34 when talking of the angels being told to bow down to Adam that

"And behold, we said to the angels: `bow down to Adam`. And they bowed down, EXCEPT IBLIS. HE REFUSED AND WAS HAUGHTY".

So according to the quran ALL angels do as commanded, but not always

UPDATE: In fairness to Muslims I have offered to show any problems found with the articles on Islam. One has written and been discussing with me this error in particular about angels disobeying allah.

As he rightly points out there is another Sura (Surah 18:50) which says the same thing but also says Iblis was a Jinn. Surah 2:34 however says ALL the angels bowed EXCEPT Iblis.

If the Quran is indeed error free this passage makes no sense as for all angels to bow except Iblis implies he too is an angel, if not then the command did not apply to him and so the Quran is wrong to say all angels except Iblis bowed.

Why would some, not all, say that those who go to church or attend worship services on Sunday are wrong?

I personally do not believe in any particlar day of worship for I do not find that we must go to church or attend worship services on Sundays.

For we are to worship God always.

I attend worhship services on Sundays because that is when Jesus rose from the dead and Scripture also says that after his ressurection his followers worshipped Jesus, and it was on Sunday.

What do you think about the Big Brother Racist debate thing?

There's all this talk about the racism in Celebrity (well, i'd hardly call them celebrities) Big Brother...I'd like to know what people think about it. I for one think it's not so much about racism as it is about class. call me snobby, but i think that those three girls (jade, jo and danielle or whatever her name is) feel threatened by Shilpa because she's more attractive, more intelligent and far classier than all three of them put together. It makes me laugh that during the five minutes that I actually watched (I can't bear to watch any more of it), jo said a simple sentence which she had to repeat five times for shilpa to understand, but it had nothing to do with her being indian, because im english and didn't understand her either! how can they imitate her indian accent when she speaks better English than they do!?! I'm sorry but i think they make british people look bad and it's not fair because lots of us have so much more class, better manners and probably bigger brains.

Another question about MuHammud? and islam and quran errors?

Please understand that i love all people including the people of Islam. But before anyone can come to truth that have to identify the false things as well that appear to be truth. In the christian faith we learn that satan is the author of confusion. I really do not think anyone would disagree with that as we all know satan does not want anyone to come to the truth of God.
Please explain the problem with truth from these parts oft he quran?
Is Religion Compulsive Or Is It Not?
Quran 02: 256 There is no Compulsion in religion….
OR
Quran 9: 29 Fight those who do not profess the true faith(Islam) till they pay the polltax (jiziya) with the hand of humility.
Quran 9: 5 Then, when the sacred months have passed, slay the idolators wherever ye find them and take them captive, and besiege them and prepare for them each ambush….
Quran 47: 4 When you meet the unbelievers in the Jihad strike off their heads….

When presenting the gifts to the priest during mass, does it matter if the person is divorced?

My bf and I were asked to take the gifts down for communion and we agreed. My bf was married in a Catholic church and is now divorced. I was told that he wasn't allowed to do that, since he's was divorced. I know he isn't allowed to take communion and he didn't do that. Does anyone know if that is true?
