as many of you know ive never been fond of christianity or christians for that matter
but that was before i realized how bloody the bible was!
a battle here, a plague there
and then theres the whole battle of armageddon thing
so would i be a hypocrit if i got interested in christianity just for the battles and such?

With love from me, to all of you. Probably heard it, but it is mean't from the bottom of my heart.

'May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind always be at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
May the rains fall soft upon your fields.
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
In case perchance, one day
We will meet each other face to face"

Old Irish Blessing, changed a bit, for the occassion.

I notice that people talk about the freedom to accept god, mostly to accept christianity. but i dont see much choice in the matter, they believe you either choose to live by a set of rules which can be limiting (not to mention that they change regularly over time). or when you die be torrmented.

i believe in god but dont aggree with this view, i believe be a good person and you should be rewarded.
what do you think

Realistically, who would have better chances of getting laid on any given day IF they wanted to? A single, good looking, cool man in his 20's? Or any average 15 year old girl?

Serious answers please.

And, NO- I don't mean anything about them doing it together.

When i was little, Halloween was a huge deal, we dressed up for school, had a parade and then went trick or treating. It was a blast and my favorite time of year! Now around here, kids aren't allowed to wear costumes to school, there are barley any trick or treaters because their parents only let them go to organized events. Parents have become so paranoid of what could happen that they have taken all the fun away. Some schools aren't even allowed to call it Halloween, its "fall festival." I am so afraid that by the time i have kids that there wont be any Halloween at all. What is wrong with this country that parents have let their own paranoid fears ruin all the fun for their kids?

Rabbi Yakov L: Welcome. I'll be with you in a moment...

arpgme: No one has seen God but Moses has seen God face to face

arpgme: Shalom Rabbi. I am wonder, if no one has seen God how did Moses see God face to
face? I'm confused.

Rabbi Yakov L: hi'

arpgme: I wrote the question up top

Rabbi Yakov L: The patriarchs had also experience prophecy

Rabbi Yakov L: though Moses was superior

Rabbi Yakov L: as Maimonides explains

Rabbi Yakov L: other prophets experienced prophecy while asleep, in dreams

arpgme: So Moses was able to see God without dieing? Or was he a spirit all along?

Rabbi Yakov L: unclear. with 'static'

Rabbi Yakov L: only Moses was wide awake...and received DIRECT prophecy as through a clear
lens

Rabbi Yakov L: fully conscious

arpgme: oh

arpgme: ok

Rabbi Yakov L: that is the meaning of 'face to face"

arpgme: So he saw God through a direct prophecy?

arpgme: Thanks

arpgme: Good night, Rabbi

I no longer have to worry or stress? Where I will be able to enjoy it rather than wonder when I can just pick up and move away?

What would that take? When may I start living the life I dream of , doing what I want and earning a decent living from it?

20. In college ( after failing out), stressed and just wanting to run away. No lie, when I graduate if I dont have enough money I may apply for some credit cards and run away! Just so I can have time to think and figure out what I WANT to do with my life. I only have one life, I dont mind being poor for awhile so long as I have peace of mind and some personal freedom.

I was thinking of opening up some CD's ( certificates of deposite) and bonds just so when Im outta this college I will have some money coming into me and then take off ( for awhile).

All this thinking after...alot. Being told I cant stay weekends, living in a neigborhood that makes college look like heaven, Forced to go to religious serives I no longer believe in

I need to write an e-mail regarding a scholarship to the head of an office at a school I hope to attend, so I want to sound as professional as possible. However, I do not know if the contact person is a Ms. or Mrs. or Dr. What is the proper way to start my letter under these circumstances? My boyfriend suggested I start with "Dear Madam", but somehow that seems a bit too proper and impersonal to me. Any suggestions?

Thank you!
