I'm gay but I was baptised a Christian about a month ago. The problem now is that I've started masturbating and the pleasure and feeling of orgasm is so good I am doing it few times each week. I also have desires to see my good looking athlete male friends naked and peeked at a few friends showering on a few occasions.
It is very difficult because I'm also a Christian and God has commanded me a life of holiness. I think my heart has been so hardened I've no remorse for these sins.
I feel so frustrated, depressed and angry as I feel like a failure. Man I'm so screwed. People treat me like an outcast. My church doesn't know I'm gay except one person there. I'm also afraid of athletic guys and I find it difficult to relate to them.

PS: Please, no condemnations or anything. I really need help. I feel ostracised by society and few of my Christian friends knew my secret.

After three months of them discovering that lump on my lung, and bunches of tests, I go in tomorrow to have a biopsy.

I am quite scared, because I don't like needles been put into me. Let alone, into my lung. And I will only have a local, so I will be awake.

At least, with the biopsy we will get a final result, I hope! Think of me tomorrow please, as all my family are far away.

“I know French is the second language here but I wanted to learn Spanish, the thing is I don't even know if it will be a disadvantage for me or an additional advantage?
This only pertains to my half blood Spaniard background”

Or in other words, whatever happens is of God`s will? If that is so you are making a very general statement (Everything) that applies to any and all situations.

Therefore kids get molested and abused for a reason. Genocides and Atrocites happen for a reason. The fly landed on top of my head for a reason. Not only that but saying that everything happens for a reason takes the stance of "Hard Determinism," which is not compatible with free will. A contradiction to say the least.
Perhaps you don`t believe everything happens for a reason. But, I usually hear Christians subscribing to this train of thought. Is this a fair assessment of the Christian belief? In that everything happens for a reason?

There are a lot of people who seem to want to use the term 'spirit' instead of 'ghosts'. I don't want to insult anybody, but I find this annoying. There's enough 'politically correct' crap going around without trying to apply it to the paranormal. Do not use a broad term when you are speaking of entities. You don't call people 'humans'. You say 'men, women, and children'. The same applies for entities. You have ghosts (human spirits), and you have non-human or inhuman entities (demonic and angelic). When you say "I have a spirit in my house", its like saying "There's a human walking around my house". Okaaay. Is there a man walking around your house? A woman? A Child? What's your point? When you say there is a spirit in your house, thats great. What kind are you dealing with? Is it a human spirit (ghost), or an inhuman (demon, etc.)? If you can't tell, thats fine. Saying there's a spirit around will work. But if you know what you're dealing with, be specific.

I'm a business English teacher in Korea. Preferably, give me something more than Glengarry Glen Ross and Wall Street -- are there any movies out there where all the business people AREN'T total @$$holes, where my Korean company workers can watch business men work/deal together and talk to each other WITHOUT the situation forcing them to throw all their manners out the window?

I should start off by saying i've been with my boyfriend for years...
The otehr day in class, i looked up at the clock across the room...i felt someone looking at me, so i glanced down adn saw thsi one football player who sits under the clock looking at me, and he raised his eyebrows at me and smiled...and i immdiately thought "sh*t he thinks i was oggling him"... the kid sits right by the door and is usually the first to leave after class lets out...not that day: he took forever putting on his backpack and held the door for me...i basically took off

the next day, i wore a watch to avoid looking at the clock...and i made sure to discuss my boyfriend pretty loud...but it didnt seem to stop him, i caught him looking at me like 3 times, and after class he did that waiting thing..he's yet to say anything though and i hope he doesnt...

now waht could this be? was he just being friendly? how can i tell? if he's nto being friendly, how do i make it stop?

Y'know, I just happen to adore Paul Simon and I see there's a whole lot of questions about him on this here yonder R&S board. I tried to find and answer 'em all but I'm afraid I probably missed a few. This is a dire problem. Unless I answer those questions, the people who asked them will remain forever ignorant about the man I love and thus may start a religion in his honor.

These people must be stopped! Please, if you notice a "Simon-y" question I haven't answered, point it out to me. Goodness forbid the poor man be hung on a cross and martyred! He's so cu-uuute!

*Mad hugs* Thank you. Y'all rock, ya know that? I think I may have some extra cookies in this here bag too... want some?

The reason I ask is because I see a good deal of Christians here that say things that I don't believe they would ever say to another person face-to-face. Yes, I know the atheists can be rude also, however they don't have your God watching every move they make and have no guilt associated with defying the teachings of your Christ. Do you think because of the annonimity of this forum that God does not care how you are treating others not of you faith?


PS-I realize this applies to the few, not the many.
