I have been friends with this woman and her husband for almost 2 years now. She is only 28 y/o, a few years younger than me. Well they both burp all the time, sometimes saying excuse me. Actually, they belch more than burp. I spend more time with her than with him. While I like her a lot as a person, this burping and belching is truly disgusting. I don't think she realizes how nasty it is. I can't take it anymore. How do I tell her?

Does a repetition of what one wishes to believe help to produce faith?

Can faith overcome negative thinking?

All my life I have believed in God and at certain times in my life I have really felt that he was with me. Now I am at this point in my life where I can't feel Him at all, I stay depressed all the time, and I really have no reason too. I have tried praying, I have been going to church, but nothing works. I feel so lost. I know the Atheists that may answer this will say that I don't feel God because He does not exist, and that is okay, they have the right to beleive what they choose to. Sometimes I question His existence. If anyone could pleas offer any advice to help me through this I would be very grateful. As I stated I really have no reason to feel so depressed. Please help! Thank you!

What did the Bible say? 'By their fruits ye shall know them?' To me that means you'll know if their beliefs are good if they live 'em. I have seen so many answers concerning Mormons say, "Yeah, the LDS people individually are really great! I love them! But I totally hate their beliefs." How can this be? We ARE our beliefs. If we are so wonderful (as many of you say), it is because of our religion and what we have been taught. How can corrupt leaders lead a people into doing good works continually? They must be either of God or the devil. And the devil does not do good works. This has always puzzled me.

" I am the Way , the Truth , and the Life , No one comes to the Father except through Me."

We can debate all day the reliability of the Bible, and whether Jesus really said these words, but even if he did, what is your point?

In the Bible Moses said something similar to his people. Each Messenger was sent to be followed by their people. At that time Jesus was they way to Allah. However when Muhammad was sent, he again said something similar, and since he is Allah's final Messenger, it is he that should be followed.

I know that some people think Ouija/Spirit Boards invite evil spirits to possess you, but what if I cast a protection spell on everyone in the room (I am Wiccan)? Isnt there some spell that would let only good spirits come through? I could write one....

I know that in magic, if you cast a bad spell, bad things happen to you. What if you cast a curse on a murderer though? Would bad things still happen to you?

As a Muslimah, it infuriates me to know that the extremists doing all of this senseless killing of innocent people, Muslim and NonMuslim alike, claim they are following Islam. They're not! Suicide gets you sent to hell. Nowhere in the Quran is there some story about getting 70 something virgins. Killing innocent people is forbidden. Forced marriages are forbidden. What do you think of the following?

" Help you one another in Al­Birr and At­Taqwa (virtue, righteousness and piety); but do not help one another in sin and transgression. And fear Allâh. Verily, Allâh is Severe in punishment. "

[ Surah: Al-Mâ'idah (05); Ayah # 2]

237. Anas reported: Messenger of Allah said, "Help your brother, whether he is an oppressor or is oppressed". A man enquired: "O Messenger of Allah! I help him when he is oppressed, but how can I help him when he is an oppressor?'' He said, "You can keep him from committing oppression. That will be your help to him".
[Al-Bukhari & Muslim]

that I'd divorce him. That didn't work. So I threatened that I'd kill myself. Now he comes home every night. Was it wrong to threaten him that I'd commit suicide if he didn't come home?

I know, I'd have to kill myself if he didn't come home some night. What does the Bible say about suicide? I know according to the bible I can't divorce him cause I have no proof of infidelity on his part.

"But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house."
(A). Why is this the case? (B). Can this happen even if the Christian is not a hypocrite and has lived clean for many years?

That Ashkenazi Jews have any blood rite to the land known as Israel?

Ashkenazis are Caucasian/ Turk/ Armenids or Slavs who converted to Judaism not long ago. They are not Semites.

Arab Jews(Sephardim),Arab Muslims, Arab Christians and Druze coexisted peacefully in Palestine before the Zionists came in 1948.

God did not "promise" this land to Eastern European Jews, simple and plain.
