I'm an open person. I open really easily and I think it's what attracts people to me. Thing is though, i don't have much of a "guard" and I tolerate a lot of things I don't initially like when some of my friends downput me/insult even if it's just a playing joke (but wrong timing for me) and in other situations as well. I tend to open up really easily and I think it makes people feel like they can be open with me all the way. But I'm learning initially I kind of take things personally and I might be somewhat sort of sensitive. I don't like to tolerate some things but then I don't want to "pounce" on people because then I feel like I don't have much to gain by doing that.
How do I stop "wearing myself on my sleeve"? Why do I do this and can someone just generally explain this?

Lately, I tried to see if I could be attracted to a female.

I managed to **** about one of my female school friends, although it took some effort. It was hot.
Recently, I also had an erotic dream about a female but I was only started getting turned on, then the dream ended.

Although, I find the attraction to females isn't something that just happens automatically(except for that dream). And I still find it easier to be turned on by guys.

Does this mean I'm Bi. I'm gradually finding it easier to be turned on by females.

Law # 426.
Women must be honoured and adorned by their fathers, brothers, husbands, and brothers-in-law, who desire (their own) welfare.

Law # 427.
Where women are honoured, there the Dev are pleased; but where they are not honoured, no sacred rite yields rewards.

How could some one become a doctor if they don't believe in evolution and they believe the earth is only 6000 years old.
How could some one like that pass med exams?

It doesn't matter whether one says Jesus is "God" or "a god" there is still a problem with John 17:3 when it says "...that they might know thee the only true God..." There is only one true God and Jesus must either be the true God with the Father and the Holy Spirit or else He must be a false God. If Jesus is a lesser god then John 1:1 must be taken as an assertion of polytheism. If Jesus is equal to the Father in His essence of being God, then we have a triune God.

If Jesus was "a god", then please explain why the New World Translation implies polytheism.

Given that terrorists are muslim extremist and that their law prohibits coming in contact with pigs, could pig's blood be used as a deterrent or weapon against them.

After all, an extreme muslim believes that he'll go to heaven if he is a martyr ... but not if he is covered "in sin"

Nature subjects man to the laws of changing matter, but he subjects himself to the laws of thought. By this means he makes himself a member of a higher order than the one to which he belongs through his body. This order is the spiritual. The spiritual is as different from the soul as the soul is from the body. As long as only the particles of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen that are in motion in the body are spoken of, we do not have the soul in view. Soul life begins only when within the motion of these particles the feeling arises, `I taste sweetness,” or, “I feel pleasure.”

If there is a god or goddess out there, surely such an entity wouldn't hold a grudge against some one simply for not believing in them. Especially with so many choices out there.

Why would a divine power be so petty. Belief in and of itself doesn't provide any benefit in this life, so why should it matter in the next?

I'm more than happy to take my chances that all gods and goddesses are fake. But if that isn't the case, I'm hoping that the gods or whatnot won't hold it against me that I didn't believe. He/she/they certainly didn't provide any proof.

What's wrong with a little healthy skepticism?
