Does anyone know what it is called when people pronounce their R's with a sound that's very much like the letter W

An example is Jonathon Ross of UK TV

Thank you

My best friend is a 34 year old man.He is ugly as hell and quite fat however he is a really lovely person.He was set to inherit his parents fortune (millions) and had a stunningly beautiful blonde girlfriend of 23.I hated her because I thought she was only after his money. I was so nasty to her and publicly voiced my opposition to her.However last year his father died(his mother was already dead) and they found that he would inherit next to nothing as his father had a serious gambling addiction and the house was worth very little as it needed so many repairs.He is a school caretaker so earns very little from that and he lives in a council house.He made 200,000 pounds from the house and is buying his own one.She however has got a deal with models one agency and is earning up to 2,000 pounds a day.And guess what! She's still with him! I was so wrong about her and I feel awful

I am wondering if anyone still supports the rebublican party despite the fact that this war has been going on and so much money has been dumped into it.

I feel that the war should be ended, and that at least half of the $200 billion plus spent on the war could be spent on other security measures (the mexican border for instance) and American issues such as education, and healthcare, and roads, and pollution, etc.

I still agree with republicans, but there really needs to be a reform in the white house, and the political system. We all need to protect our country, while maintaining the integrity of it. So we need to find the fine line between Deomocrats and Republicans.

Just wondering if any church leaders have said anything, or if there is any doctrine the LDS church has about whether they believe Mary Magdalene was married to Jesus. Thanks!

i have a friend, we arent that close but i have known her for many years

recently, she told me she was bisexual

she has been 'going out' with another girl
they walk around holding hands, hug alot, that sort of stuff
sometimes near me

nothing rude or obscene or anything!!

Many Christians believe that being homosexual is wrong and that homosexuals are mortal sinners and we should not affiliate with them etc. etc.

however, i do not want to discriminate against my friend and her 'girlfriend'

i treat her the same, but it does bother me

i cant change who she is and whats she wants to do. its her life.

i would like to accept my friend for who she is

has anyone been in this situation before and can help me out?

comments appreciated

if you hate homosexuals, please dont answer
im not a gay basher and never will be!

God bless and thankyou!

It was actually probably the first thing that came out of his mouth when he started his ministry. He went on the street and said 'repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.' You can read about this man in the bible at the beginning of the book of Matthew and Mark. Obviously that's not all he said - he had a lot of love to offer and forgiveness etc. The point is would you be embarrassed when he challenged people or agreeing with him.

If 99% of Americans believe in the ten commandments, how can the Bible be repulsive? Let's take the fourth commandment as an example. It says:

Remember the sabbath day, and keep it holy. For six days you shall labour and do all your work. But the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God; you shall not do any work—you, your son or your daughter, your male or female slave, your livestock, or the alien resident in your towns. [Exodus 20: 8-9]
This, supposedly, is the word of God, the almighty ruler of the universe.
Now think about this. Wal-mart is open on the Sabbath. And so is Target. Best buy is open on the Sabbath. And so is Circuit City. Home Depot is open on the Sabbath. And so is Lowes. In fact, millions of businesses in America have employees working on the Sabbath. Even Christian Family Bookstores has employees working on the Sabbath.

What should we do with all of these people who are breaking the fourth commandment?

In the Bible's book of exodus - the same book that contains the ten commandments – the Bible tells us what to do with everyone who breaks the fourth commandment. Exodus 31 verse 15 tells us exactly what to do:

For six days, work is to be done, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of rest, holy to the LORD. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day must be put to death.
That's right. The Bible commands the death penalty for anyone who works on the Sabbath, and we should obey. Right? This means we have to kill tens of millions of Americans.
Should we line these tens of millions of Americans up and shoot them?

Should we put them in giant gas chambers?

I put this question not to offend anyone. An Evangelist in a TV Programme put a testimony of an old man with his wife on the stage. The oldie said on arrival at an international airport his wife suddenly collapsed and fell flat on the ground. Then Jesus came down and took her soul away and for the next three hours according to the lady Jesus showed her around heaven and after three hours He put her back to the body to the relief of her sorry-stricken husband. Now I put these questions for your intellectual assessment. Why the Airport authorities allow the husband to keep the dead body at the terminus for 3 hours? Was he sure that she was taken up by Jesus for entertaining her and did Jesus tell him so as He had in the past appeared and talked to so many fraudulent Evangelists? I reacted putting the entire thing in my blogspot; but why Christians chose to remain silent? Real faith honours God and do not insult Him for cash and favours?

If god does exist, (and assume for a minute we are talking about the all knowing, all seeing, all powerful god the christians love so much), he would certainly know how to convince me of his existence, and also have the power to do whatever that thing was to convince me.
The fact that I remain unconvinced right now leaves only two options as far as I can see:

1) God exists, but does not want me to believe in him.
2) God does not exist

Which is correct?
