everyone understood and accepted that not everyone is going to believe what they believe?

Sorry it's worded funny, I can't think of anything that sounds better. My husband bought me some smirnoff ice and I don't drink much. Cheers.

I feel guilty because many of my female friends have a false image of me as a male. There is a particular girl who I feel really close with and was wondering if I should tell her about my self. Personally I would feel really liberated, but I dont want to risk her friendship in any way. I dont have any attraction towards guys, but sometimes I get this urgency to dress in womens garments.

Especially when on Sunday - their Holy Day, they come here to persecute Protestants?

Just like old times, eh Catholics?

Right, so ever since I moved out to go to school, I have been in need of a new church that's close to where I live, preferably something conservative. I was raised as a protestant and was wondering what are some fundamental differences between protestants and catholics? So far, the only thing I'd have a problem with is saying that the Pope is infallible, do all catholics believe this, or is it more like a "what he says goes" kind of thing?

In other words: do we morally make choices to tell the truth and walk in truth because if we don’t – we realize there may be consequences that we may suffer?

If you lived in a country that was, say, predominantly Hindu, wouldn't you expect to see symbols of the Hindu faith displayed in public places? Wouldn't you expect to hear Hindu children saying Hindu prayers in school?
If you lived in a Muslim country, you would definitely expect such things.
If you lived in a country that was populated by followers of the FSM, you'd expect to see loads of people dressed in pirate gear...

So, why do you find it strange that, in a country that is predominantly Christian, that the Christians who live here would like to be free to express their faith where ever they happen to be?
Why should we have to take down our crosses and our commandments? They have been here for decades, and longer. Did you only now realize what they were?
Why shouldn't our children pray in their schools? Are you afraid your kid might hear a Christian prayer and be converted?
Why shouldn't we be who we are...why should we have to tiptoe around on eggshells?
We are Christians!

how come they keep giving us thumbs down, answer with pejorative epithets and won't just accept the fact that faith comes from intellectual knowledge?

A young Christian today told me I had my head on backwards. Of course, I am on vacation, so I just smiled at him. Of course it got me to thinking about things, and I don't remember the feng shui lady who arranged my house telling me that my head was on backwards. So , my question is, when I get home, should I call my feng shui lady and tell her to get her eyes checked?

My friend has been a trouble nowadays. We are otherwise very good friends and business partners living in the same colony. He helped me a lot in business development.
I feel he is taking advantage with my wife. He keeps spanking on my wife's butts, hugs her many times with no reason and kisses her hands and arms.In parties he picks her up and gropes her butts and boobs as if happened while picking her. I noticed many times he adjusting his hands deliberately to hold and cup her boobs while picking her.

He flirts a lot with her. One day he pulled her pants from the front and said she needed a belt. The other day, he asked what is in her shirt pockets and touched her boobs with both hands searching her pockets even though my wife was saying that there was nothing inside. Another day, he spilled beer on her thighs and licked thighs in front of others.

Whenever we go to outings, he insists my wife to sit beside his driving seat saying that his wife must sit on back seat to take care of his kid. All through the drive he holds her hand, keeps spanking her thighs and even pinching and almost squeezing her inner thighs all as part of flirting. My wife stopped wearing skirts whenver we went on outings with their families.

He does all this in public gatherings, many times in presence of his wife and pretends part of fun and celebration. This is one reason, why I could not object for his behavior.Even my wife didnt stop him probably for the same reason but she never showed any encouragement though.

How to handle such delicate issues especially when it may effect our business relations?

I was listening to a Billy Graham sermon wherein he said that when Jesus was on the cross he was offered "gall and vinegar" when he said "I thirst". He went on to say that Jesus turned it down and said Jesus turned it down because the gall and vinegar could have acted as a pain killer (seriously) and that it was being offered as such...and that Jesus was not going to take any kind of "pain killer" while dying for us, he was going to do the job as it was intended. I was rather shocked to hear Billy Graham say this but I swear it is true. I have the sermon on video tape. I always thought the gall and vinegar was offered as a mockery to Jesus because in saying he was thirsty, he was offered vinegar and who would drink that? And gall is spit, so who would drink spit if thirsty. Because when Jesus was on the cross he was being mocked. People were screaming saying "you saved others, now save yourself" and so forth. Do you think what Billy Graham said is strange? I do.

I just had a family member tell me that I need to leave the LDS Church. When I asked why it is they felt that way, they responded:
"Well, no other church will recognize your baptism."

WHAT? How about this, o family member, I don't recognize your church! How does the fact that your church doesn't like me make my faith any less valid?

O, ye fundies with no undies, what maketh you think I need your approval to worship the way I choose?

I'm waiting for this, i'm all fired up...

I mean is it a reasonable way of belief for open-minded Christians...if compelling contrary evidence comes in then you would amend your beliefs accordingly wouldn't you?

you?" why did he say that it does? And this was after Jesus had lived and died and assended to heaven. Should protestants re-word their bibles to say NOT in various passages?
