I was wondering because I know he likes me, and I don't want to wait too long. They have been broke up 2 weeks now.

she hugged me for a while like 15 seconds. she said take care in her low gentle voice...there was no wasit contact.. then she squeezed me briefly...it kinda hurt.. then she turned her back on me, never giving eye contact, even as she shut the door...she was leaving for good. she was saying take care as she walks away with her back turned to me...

it was her last day at work...shes around 10 years my senior...she was sort of my supervisor....despite my name vincent, im female...uhm, no dirty ideas..but what does that mean when she didnt give me eye contact even?

as she closes the door carefully, there wasnt even a smile, but she wasnt looking back at me...

shes a very nice person, very thoughtful..shed praise me when i did a good job..i just sort of felt 'snubbed' when i wasnt looked back at...

I know you're supposed to take nothing extra but seriously, what would you grab? I always told myself, I would grab my keys, purse and an extra pair of clothes. Silly huh? The reason why I ask is because the fire alarm just finished going off and I had to think what the awful noise was and ran and grabbed my son who was asleep. Also grabbed a pair of pants and managed to put them on while moving. (if I tried it now, i probably couldn't do it because i just had a baby.) And my keys so I could lock the door, given I live in a tower(apartment).

*sigh* that really annoyed me when I saw someone answer a question and say they didnt like blacks because of how they act.
Are you kidding me?? And how do all black people act please explain that to me?? You think were all ghetto or something? or were all LAZY and UNEMPLOYED?? VIOLENT?
Is Oprah Winfrey this way?
Tiger Woods?
Maya Angelou?
Colin Powell?
the list could go on...
I mean seriously...have you even considered all the black doctors,lawyers,business owners, etc. that are out there? We have the same jobs and careers as you guys have, and it seems to me like we have to be better at it to get some respect around here.
I go to a mostly white university and what did I see there? Yep! you guessed it. Black professors! You think theyre ghetto,loud,and rude if thats how you think all black people act?? I dont think they wouldve gotten hired if they were ghetto or violent and had a criminal record or something.

...like in the Bible and today, should be diagnosed as schizophrenics or should schizophrenia patients who hallucinate be classed as Spiritual People? What is the difference the experiences are real to both of them?

I despise going to church. My mom is a devout Catholic, and she has all of a sudden started demanding that I go to church. I am not Catholic, neither is my sister or father. My mom lets my dad do whatever he wants (they won't fight about it--married 29 years). For the past year or so, she has also allowed my sister and I to stay home from church. However, since my sister moved out (off to college on Wednesday), my mom suddenly began to insist that I go to church. I hate it. I am not Catholic. I see that the church is riddled with corruption and believe that many of the core doctrines are contradictory. I have repeatedly voiced my anger with her over this, and I refuse to attend mass. She will not listen to me in this matter, and just continues to insist that I go to church. She is DEMANDING that I go, and I am not going to be forced to do something against my will that I hate so dearly. WHAT can I possibly do to help her understand this WITHOUT me attending?

SERIOUS ANSWERS ONLY.

Dr. Joe Fuiten, a leader amongst conservative evangelicals, referred to secularists as "illegal aliens" during an interview for CNN's "God's Warriors" program. When discussing the concern that evangelicals want to turn America into a theocracy, Fuiten stated that the US was founded on christian values and directed the following quote towards secularists, "You're the illegal alien here, not me." Below is a link to this clip from the show, if you're interested in watching it:

... This isn't a question. More of a statement that I'd like you to comment on.

Creationism can never be a science because it's method isn't scientific.

True science works like this:
- Observations
- Hypothesis
- Analysis of observations
- Conclusions
(+ new hypothesis if 1st hypothesis is proven false through analysis)

Creationism works like this:
- Hypothesis (of a Creator God in the biblical sense)
- Gathering of facts in accordance to hypothesis
- Conclusions
(+ new gathering of facts if current facts do not support hypothesis)

Thus creationism has no scientific value.

Thoughts? Comments? Suggestions?

I'm not a Christian, i'm an atheist, but do you know what bugs me most? Atheists that are always attacking Christians because of what they believe in. I have a lot of respect for Christians, i admire that they don't need proof to believe something, but atheists who act like that are just plain.........stupid. they need to get a life and grow up. anyone agree with me?

Please keep an open mind with these questions: I wonder why it is men who are Christians seem consumed by it, they will beat me over the head with their values. I'm in my mid-20s and a virgin, I want to wait until marriage for sex but can't seem to find a decent guy.... I beleive in God and beleive that all good things in life come through Him -- but I also love movies, books, and music, etc....I can't seem to find a decent men in NYC who isn't either 1. violent or untrustworthy or 2. a religious freak. I don't want someone w/ no morals but I don't someone who is so overly religious that our whole conversations revolve around this.

are there any guys out there who are single christians, who are not "extremely" religious? it not possible for me find a male who is like minded like me: I have 2 tattoos, a tongue piercing. Some Christian men hear this and reject it, I am still a good person, trying to remain virgin b/c sex is for marriage, imo. maybe I just don't understand religion...

I have seen posts on R&S accusing evolution of claiming we evolve from monkeys and that internal organs suddenly sprang into being inside of one single animal. Those questions inspire my question.

Let's face it... he created a Hell where unbelievers are to go for simply not being convinced of his existence. There, according to most Christians, they will be forever burned by flames.

I, a very imperfect human, would not wish that upon my worst enemy.

I'm not even saying he has to let them into heaven (it would be much kinder to just let them cease to exist).

Isn't it time Christians admitted that their idea of God is certainly not a very loving one?
