Society & Culture - 19 July 2007

Now, I have nothing against gay people at all; I like to think of myself as very progressive and open minded. Actually, I tell everyone I know that I am and they all agree. With that being said, a new employee started off this week on Monday making the rounds about the office introducing himself. Of course, everyone acts so immature "I think he's gay", blah..

Anyway, this morning in the break room I think I caught him glancing at my crotch. I awkwardly said "heya, good morning" and left swiftly. Also, in our office the windows are like mirrors and I could clearly see him checking out my butt in the reflections every time I walked by.

Should I sue him or get him fired? I feel like I should get some kind of shield on my butt in case if we're alone in the bathroom. I almost feel like holding a book against by rear every time I walk by his cubicle for the chance of getting raped. Maybe I should pass out flyers warning the other guys in the office; I'd hate to see someone raped!

I asked a question about starting a GSA at my school a few days ago. I got a lot of good responces, but now I have another question. I think it is never too early to start doing research and working on stuff, but what would I need to have at the beginning?

I just made a "report" I guess about important dates to the LGBT community to give out to the people who join. I also made a flyer to advertise and some club bylaws. I do think the bylaws should be discussed before they become permanent, but I think I have a good foundation for people to work with. (I stole it off the internet, lol) I also want to go to a graphic designer and purchase a large thing, don't know what to call it, to affix to my table to advertise the GSA during lunch so people can join.

Another question, do you think I am doing too much work for something that might not even exist?

Because he's dancing up there above me tonight.

Thunder and lightning to put any heavy metal band to shame.

Hail tap dancing on my roof.

Wind bending the trees.

What offering can I make to ensure my electricity is available to me when next I wish to join the Tea Party?

If so:

If we are to help protect the animals from harms way, I have a petition to ask for stricter penalties, it's quick and simple.

Christians, you say that God created humans to be above
all other animals. Yed we are not the conquerer of the ocean!
Hell the ocean is much larger than the land and yet we can't
conquer it! What you got to say about that! And for the land
we live on we just destroy it! Other animals live peacefully and
do not destroy the enviornment but we humans do!! So are
humans conquerers or hell creatures for motherly earth!?

Please explain in some coherent way. No appeals to emotion or bandwagon arguments please - rational only. I am not certain that our conception of race fits the reality of race. I am looking for some guidance on how to approach this issue.

I'm a Lic. Massage Therapist. A f riend just called me (also an LMT) & asked this question: What should I say to my long time client who offered to buy my lunch after a massage?
We've all had to deal with a pervert or two. That one's easy. You say "Get dressed, get out and DO NOT come back."
But if it's an innocent offer like this and you don't like to cross the professional line into personal, then what? You don't want to treat it like they hit on you or just 'asked you out' so what's the best way to say no without making them feel uncomfortable or as if they did something wrong?

then why has he never healed an amputee?!!?!?!?!?!

Apparently he's biased. He heals people with cancer every hour of the day....

I find it funny that Christians like to say that God heals only the things they don't understand or can't see/haven't been thoroughly studied and understood by science. How many Christians have you known that have prayed for someone who lost an arm to regrow one?

They don't......even though their all powerful God should theoretically be able to do it. Interesting.....

Everyone ask one question about me or my religion. Thumbs up the questions you like and thumbs down the questions you dislike. In the morning who ever has the most tumbs up will have a 100% honest answer and will be choosen best answer. No issue is off limits!

Why is it that when you ask a catholic about their faith/religion/rituals, most of them give you a website to read their Catechism of the Catholic religion?
Why can't they just answer, biblically?

Is it evil? Does it worship Satan? Who is their god? What is it about? Is it about Magic? Can you really cast spells? Do the spells really work? Please tell me everything because I have no clue what it really is about? What do they believe happens when they die? Do they hate christians? Do they believe in God?

The first one I'll lay on the table is a Circle purification that doesn't use Incense: for asthmatics, those with allergies, and those with other pulmonary disorders.

The information below rather dates the ritual in the 80s.
"by Matrika, co-sysop of PAN- the Psychic Awareness Network, 300/1200/2400 baud"

If this ritual would be of use to you, send me an Answers e-mail with an e-mail address to which I can attach the file. The file is too many characters to post on Answers.

If there is enough interest I'll modernize more files (this one was in wordstar format) and put up questions as to who might want them.

No, there are no strings attached. This kind of thing goes with being an Elder and Librarian of the Lore.
