We make much to do about nothing, and neglect the times we should observe historical events.

the government was able to integrate the buses and schools. Sadly, only the government can enforce gun control. Washington will never be safe till we have nation-wide gun control. It you want something else to read, click here -

First off im actually girl, but my profile hasnt saved to girl. I am 17 yrs old.

About a year and a half ago, twice in the same range period, i was secually assulted by two different guys. Since then i have not been able to trust guys, or see them in the same way that girls should. Instead i have turned to being attractive to girls more than guys, and i feel more comfortable. I dont have anything against lesbians or bi-sexuals, but i dont want to be one due to the fact that my family dont accept it, and they wouldnt accept my reason. I have to hide it all the time, i will NEVER tell them, but at the same time i dont want to hide the REAL ME. I get very angry, and upset for this matter. But at the same time, im not all into the girl-to-girl sex thing due to be assulted.

So how can i DEAL with this pain, and find the right girl who just wants love and comfort.

Is it possible to love something or someone, and not become too attached to them - accept it will die eventually, or be taken from you - not let your desire or greed overtake you - to avoid negative emotions - so that when the time comes for it to perish, you can accept the circle of life's right to take away and give what it creates.

My point is, if you can love something, but accept it's eventual perishment, and be enlightened - you can appreciate it for what it is, not be greedy and not create negative emotions which lead to suffering.

They took most of the scriptures about Grace and replaced the word Grace with Undesirved Kindness?
I see a vast difference betweenthe 2 meanings. What do you think?

its been a good ploy for Kate Moss and Amy Winehouse to be seen to be going in and out of Rehab and taking drugs,as its given them publicity? Theyve all tried the no knickers thing and even The Sun newspapers a bit blase about it now. Surely they are not good examples for youngsters, i think if anything it just proves that although they have money - theres something missing.... maybe they have a personality disorder? I mean our Kate is knocking 40 and still wants to be seen as a teenage girl? Most women her age are thinking about The possibility of becoming Grandmothers in a few years time.

I do. It sounds really condescending unless the person is elderly.

I have been asked by my home group to give testimony about God, and I wanted to speak on the subject of answered prayer. I can give accounts of the way God answers prayer from my own experience, but would like to draw from scripture as well, which is more important. Does anyone have any good Bible quotations on the subject of how God answers prayer please?

I am not homophobic; I do not have any fear/hatred toward homosexuals, as I have many homosexual friends myself. However I do disagree with the whole homosexual lifestyle choice, due to moral and biological issues (not religious issues). Would you call this Homonegativity?

How sure are you with your salvation? If God ask you why you should I enter heaven, what will your response be?

Perhaps a strange question, so it might warrant an explanation. I'm writing a story about a crew of astronauts who are about to die during re-entry, and they all know it. I want to have the commander praying, but I don't actually know any prayers because I've never been that religious. Can anyone help me out?

Do you believe there is more proof of evil spirits than good ones.

I'm not dating this guy anymore, but I'm still on his organization's mailing list--the organization helps disabled people. I've donated there since I've known him, but now that we broke up, I'm feeling hesitant about donating. Am I being self-centered? I thought about not showing up in person but donating online anonymously.

Why would they wish to degrade a holy book in this way? Is it a way to control people? [i.e. "we have the true, literal meaning, so the other people don't. If you look for any other meaning, you are going to hell with them."] is literalism really a means to elevate one group of people above the rest?

What are the differences in Islamic and Christian soceity? I don't mean in terms of religious beliefs, but more basic ideas such as Church on Sunday (chrisitan), praying towards Mecca (islam). Im also interested in the difference in culture - such as the eating of pork is forbidden (islam). Thanks!

on the grounds that they are prone to believing that which cannot be proven, like fictitious gods and people that can walk on water, raise the dead, make it rain or snow when they feel like it, and all that rubbish? And, most hilarious of all, believe people who say they are the son of a god? Don`t laugh!
