Do I sit there and close my eyes and ponder the weather? Or! Do I try and stare down the person on the opposing side of the table?
Or do I read off Darwin's theories?

Please! Help me!

If you love any one than you are living proof that you have some part of God in you.God is love.And if you didn't have some part of God in you,you wouldn't be able to love.So even if you say you are an Atheist you are proving the love of God.Some people say they are Christian and they don't prove it.Some people don't believe there is a God but they prove there is a God by their actions. Weird aint it? Love ya.Cindy

Always try to help a friend in need
Believe in yourself
Be brave...but it's ok to be afraid sometimes
Give lots of kisses
Laugh often
Don't be overly concerned with your weight, it's just a number
Always try to see the glass half full
Meet new people, even if they look different to you
Remain calm, even when it seems hopeless
Take lots of naps..
Be weird whenever you have the chance
Love your friends, no matter who they are
Don't waste food
RELAX
Take an occasional risk
Try to have a little fun each day
Work together as a team
Share a joke with friends
Fall in love with someone..
..and say "I love you" often
Express yourself creatively
Always be up for surprises
Love someone with all of your heart
Share with friends
There is always someone who loves you more than you know
Exercise to keep fit
Seize the Moment
Hold on to good friends; they are few and far between

And smile at least once a day!

Okay, I have been looking for an answer to this on the internet, and I cannot seem to find anything, so I am hoping someone who knows a lot about auras can help me out.

A pagan friend taught me how to read auras, and I can read those of other people, but I cannot read my own. However, every time someone has told me about mine, it's always a mix of blue and violet/purple, with some aqua in it. That has been verified by several separate people who do not know each other. My question is about a different color. Several complete strangers who do not read auras have approached me and told me they can see a strange pillar of goldish/white light around me, which one described as looking like flames swirling all around me. It seems to be independent of my aura, as it has happened at least once the same day that someone read my regular aura. Any ideas on what this might mean? I cannot find anything about it anywhere. Another puzzle is that the people who see it are religious.

Thank you.

There is proof through science that dinosaurs are created before humans? so really what does it mean by days if it took it 6 days to create everything including man? well all i know i dont believe in the fairytale unless there is more of a reason why earth was created. All i know same and neutrons and electrons, that some sort of energy is keeping planets within solar system by some kinda static energy. when energy is created anything could happen within its surface. So thats the creation in im believing in as we speak because its only way that any of the stuff makes sense.

We can travel to the future as a spectator but not in physical form, yet we can come back and do things to alter the future but we cant goto the future and change things or goto past and change things. Time machine is a myth.

It was said years before Jesus was born that of his coming and other events that would follow..yet after he was baptized Satan offered him worldy things to change his mind..doesn't it show that future can be changed..if you belive in the bible ?

What do you think ?

For many years I was anti-church and anti-Christian. I believed in God but I couldn't accept Jesus as God. Then a couple years ago I was filled with the Holy Spirit and felt Jesus' love. I was overwhelmed with peace. I decided to give my life to Jesus from that day and God has filled my life with many wonders.

My faith is based on the fact that I feel Jesus with me and I am strengthend by the word of God, church and prayer. Who has faith in Jesus even though they haven't felt Him yet?

I felt offended but did not know how to respond to this situation. i felt it was a waste of my time and money. How can I tell my friends that their guest's behavior was rather offesinve.

Hi, all these questions that I read where people complain about immigrants and so on. I personally disagree wtih many. Who is to say what nation is the best??? Why are people proud to be one nation and not the other, when THEY have not done anything for their country???
I have had a conversation with a teenager recently (British) who said, "oh yeah, marry this guy from Pakistan or marry this guy from India" in a sense that they are worse!!! And she said "oh yeah, I make more money than this guy from Hungary who works for 1.50 an hour". I could not believe what I was hearing!!! Even teenagers, who have achieved nothing in ther life think they are better than older people from other countries who came here in order to give a good life to their children. How does that make brits better than other people????

It is as simple as this: either you are good or bad. Either you envy others or love them. Faith is freedom from all obsessions obeying two simple rules 1. Love everybody 2. Love God. There are no flying horses or Santa Claus. You either get the smile of your neighbors or make them cry. Being good person and making right decisions is very difficult in the world we are living. Stop idolizing people; we are all equal, believers or non-believers, kings or beggars. We are mostly wrong anyway. There is no man on the world whose sole is pure or who is better than the others. We all deserve the chance and we are living it to prove what we are to our self and to others and whether we will join the light or darkness it depends on if we are simply positive or negative. Giving ten bucks to charity doesn’t make us positive if we are not truly positive in everything we do. Preaching to people about hell will force them to Church because of fear not because they are full of love.

My neighbour uses abusive language in common areas of an apartment block I live in. It is really annoying! The person is drunk very often (if not all the time), smokes in common corridors and lifts, spilling cigarette ash anywhere (e.g. in front of my door). The neighbour lets the dog to pee on the corridor's carpet, sometimes it would be in front of my apartment. I happen to know that the person does not have a permission to keep the dog.
I have never confronted the neighbour as the person is definitely scary.
I made an official complaint (both verbal and in writing) to Strata. The situation seemed to be improved but lasted for about 2 weeks only. Currently, it's the same as it was before the complaints. It really gets on my nerves as rent's prices are going through the roof, yet I still have to put up with something like that. What should I do next? Is there anyone in a similar situation? Please let me know how to resolve the issue. Many thanks for your time!

My favorite color is purple, but I also really like all others, this one just sort of draws me to it. I also really like fairies, pegasus, and unicorns, along with roses. I also like glittering graphics and basically anything that's bold which includes that already listed. Does this say anything about my spirituality? What does it say psychologically?

I found this website that advertises that they will write your research papers for you for a fee of course. I proceeded to write to them and tell them all the grammatical errors I found just in the first two paragraphs of their website, and that I wouldn't use their services if I lost use of both of my arms. I suggested they hire a proofreader next time to go through their website, because they needed to make a good first impression if they hoped to get any business. So they write me back and ask if I would do the proofreading for them, and they'd pay me a fee. What should I charge?

My partner is catholic, I have not even been christened as my parents wanted me to decide for myself which religion to follow. I was having a conversation with my partners mother and she said that if we have children she would want us to bring them up as catholics, as it is good for children to have faith. I think I have turned out ok, despite not being catholic or indeed of any particular religion, I know right from wrong and know how to treat others and I didn't need the fear of God to encourage me. I know it's a long way off, but I'm not sure I would want to become a catholic myself, so wouldn't that send confusing messages to our children. I don't want to be baptised and confirmed just so I can send our children to a catholic school (which are better in our area than the non catholic schools); I think it would be hypocritical to convert to the faith just for that reason, I may not follow catholicism but I am not about to insult the religion by following it for selfish reasons.
