If homosexuality is not a choice, sex change is a choice, and if you're born straight, then what the hell does "bisexual" mean? Is it just another word for confused? If you liked girls and then chose to like men, are gay or bisexual, because you once liked girls? Same for women. If you are a lesbian who is married to a man, then you stop being a lesbian, like men again, are you a "used to be gay," or are you bisexual? It is very confusing all of the terms that gays and bisexuals use. If you were born liking girls, and then you like men, were you born "confused", born gay, or choose to be gay? That's where all the confusion began. God made it simple when he made Adam and Eve. It is not good for "MAN" to be alone, so I will make him a "WOMAN." So where does this "bisexuality" come from? Where exactly does "gay" come from? Is it something made up? And why would you be a man and then want to be a woman? Why would God make you "bicurious?" Are you bored of the opposite sex?

If he was the snake in the garden of eden, he must've did the whole war on god thing before adam & eve got kicked out of paradise, but its not mentioned in genesis. So where did our idea of a rebellion of angels under lucifer morningstar? Most things seem to reference milton's paradise lost, i'm wondering if there is a biblical account of something similar.

I’m trying to figure out the name of a creature from Native American myth, specifically Choctaw lore. I’ve never actually read about them, only heard of them in stories told by tribe members, but the name sounds something like Khan-ik-ko-sha. Supposedly these small creatures punish wayward children and generally wreak havoc within the community. I can’t find anything about them in literature, however, and I suspect it may be because I don’t have the correct spelling. Does anyone know the correct name and/or spelling? Also, are there similar Native American myths that this may be a corruption of? I’m aware that similar creatures populate European folklore, but I am only interested in of North American origin.

Are there any strong conservatives that ONLY vote for people that are conservative? I will NEVER vote for a woman a black a jew a mexican or anything like that maybe I am racist and sexist (dont see how saying I am a female) but I am a lot like the family in American History X. I look for those qualities in people. Anyone else share this? If you wanna hate me and talk about how mean I am for sharing my thoughts and feelings which yes are similar to the nazi's views (I dont want anyone dead though) then go ahead and hate. Just hit me up on aim so I can at least defend myself rather then on here where I cant reply. Because if you wanna critize me and dont even give me the chance to explain your just as bad as I am.

Ok, So, I have recieved several posts defending the role of priests. Let me explain further. Priests are held to a higher standard than stepfathers, or other menwho have been convicted of this terrible crime of pedophilia. When a "man" commits this crime, it DOES depend on his position in life. We EXPECT a consecrated supposedly "living for god" priest to ACT like it. When a family man does this , yes, it is just as terrible, but the role of the priest makes it doubly devastating, because well, priests are supposed to be "nurturing", yes? THATS why the crime of ONE SINGLE PRIEST destroys the image of the "holy" church, and that is what you, the readers aren't getting. Add to this the obstinate refusal of the Vatican to even address the problem as well as the Inquisition which has been swept under the rug with a cavalier attitude of " oh, well bygones are bygones" and the so-called "holy" church with its pathetic attempt to render itself the ONLY purveyer of "truth" and that explains it
