I am curious how many women out there wear skirts or even blouses that allow for us men to get wonderful views? How many women wear them on purpose? i have seen some great shots and it really seems that they were on purpose.

My meaning is this. Some people need the crutch of religion. I don't want to call them weak but they need some sort of external emotional support. Is there anyway to generate this without religion? Can we give that blessed and cared for feeling without the lame rules and bigoted indoctrination? Religion causes many people to live good lives but it limits them tragically as well. This is not a "can we be good without god" This is always answered as yes but this "yes" is a "is it possible" question. Of course is possible. However a better question is "can EVERYBODY be good without god" Or do some people deep down need its support?

Galatians 3:28 says specifically,

"for there is neither Jew nor Greek, slave or free, male or female, in Christ we are one."

If god cannot see us as male or female. He obviously cannot see us as gay or straight.

The word homosexual wasn't even part of our vernacular until 1865, so when you quote the scriptures using that word, you are not referencing the Bible correctly. Note that "homosexuals" of the Biblical times, were not loving couples as we have today...they were temple prostitutes...they were people who raped by their victors in a war to declare their superiority....plain and simple. This is what the Bible refers to with the language.

God does not see people as male or female..he sees them as his children....he likewise does not see people as gay or straight.

Peace.

My husband and I are faithful in tithing to our church. For awhile now I have been feeling so guilty about money we spend. Our consumer society feels so frivolous at times. I feel ridiculous spending money on things that I don't really "need" when there are starving children and others who have so much less than I do. I would like to give more money away then we do now, over and above our tithe, but I wonder will it ever be enough? Is it wrong to buy a pair of shoes you don't really need or spend money on fixing up your house? I just feel so obsessed over how much money I spend. Maybe I have a love of money?

God told Adam and Eve not to eat from the Tree of Knowledge. Do Christians still follow that tradition?

My neighbor and I both have a fence, which has been ok, even though his fence is about 6 inches higher than mine. That was a couple years ago. Now he's building a deck that goes right next to my fence, and the fences are about 3 feet higher than the floor of the deck, so he's going to have a full view of everything on the other side of the fence, into my kitchen window etc. Can anything be done?

My friend just lost her baby - she was a few months pregnant - and the service is this evening. Are you supposed to give them a gift? or just a sympathy card? I just got married so I'm kinda broke, but I want her to know I care and I'm sorry for what she's going through.

I want divine parents that don't create evil fire pits to torture their children, and then use free will as an excuse. I never ate any forbidden fruit either.

Have you heard of that man who killed people and hung their body parts around his house. He lived in Wisconsin. Does anyone know his name or anything else about him?

I am about to start an RCIA course to convert to Catholicism in September. This Friday is a Holy Day of Obligation, so I am going to Mass that morning. However, I do know that there is a Vigil Mass on Thursday - do I need to go to both the Vigil Mass and the Mass on Friday, or just the Mass on Friday?

Sorry if this sounds like a silly question, but I'm still learning!

I've started reading up on religions shared around the world. I was a raised a Christian (but am currently on the fence about the whole existance of God) and was taught that the pentagram was basically a sign of the devil. Now I'm reading that its history is not so shady afterall? Can anyone elaborate please?

What about Happy Solstice?
Personally I'm not. I could care less what you say for the holidays. BUT I'm not offended if you wish me a happy holiday other then what I celebrate. For example if someone says Merry Christmas to me I automatically shoot back Peaceful Yule! It's not to be difficult or rude. I am expressing my warmth of the season just like the person who said Merry Christmas. But I see a lot of people getting upset over changing things to "Happy Holidays". They don't care of they "offend people" by saying Merry Christmas. I'm not offended. But are you offended if I say something different back? In the end, does it really matter? We are all celebrating the same BASIC thing. Birth of the new year, the new sun/son, the coming of the warmth...does the wording really matter?

I harass people and judge their life? I think I am really good and I have really changed because I am born again. I don't understand why people can't accept what I think?

I had a very annoying squirrel who had gotten into my attic somehow... Anyway, I was really worrying about how I was going to get this squirrel out... I just said oh Lord, what am I going to do about this squirrel?... Well to my surprise, God answered me and said 'speak to it and tell it to leave'... I said Squirrel, In the name of Jesus I command you to take your nest and leave and not return... And do you know what? I've never heard that squirrel again since... it's gone!

So, have you ever had a prayer answered? Even a small one?
