Or do you just toss it away? I just wondered. We had a pile of notepads made from outdated stationary here in the office, and wondered if y'all do the same.

My beautiful baby girl was born on June 6th, 2006. Yes, its true. She's a 6-6-6 baby. We embrace the irony of her birth date. We think its funny, not 'creepy' or 'satanic'. For a Halloween party at our community center, we dressed her up as a little devil. It came up in conversation with a couple of our neighbors that we were chatting to that her birthday was 06-06-06. They immediately got very awkward. They said that it was horrible that she was born on that day (like I could help it). Then they took their kids away from my daughter and told them they couldn't play together anymore! Are you serious?!

Should I even waste my breath by saying something to these people or just be thankful that awful people like that aren't in my daughters life? The really sad part? My own mother-in-law won't acknowledge the fact that she was born on 06-06-06. She knows that that's her birth date, but she thinks its terrible that we refer it like that. Why do people take it SO seriously?

If a man says chiquilla to a woman does this mean something sexual or similiar to saying honey or sweetheart in english.

Would a man say this to just a friend or a girlfriend.

We are called to be salt & light in this world. If we don't vote, those who oppose life and Biblical teachings will. What do you think about this subject? Should Christians vote?

A friend of mine is getting married.. (I'm friends with her through a friend). Anyway, her ceremony starts at 11am but the reception isn't until 3:30pm. I live 45 minutes away from both locations. Is it rude if I just go to the reception? I'm going alone, and I'm not sure what I am supposed to do for 4 hours while I wait for the reception. I'll be in a formal dress, and won't be able to just go and walk around... Some people have told me it is okay to just go to the reception. Any thoughts??

when he kicked over tables called people hipocrits and snakes or when he as much as called one non jew woman a dog because she asked for a blessing?

IF what I am saying is wrong, slap me in the face. I crave correction! If not, check out what you are giving your life to, Is it religeon or God?

They surely didn't have them in bethlehem
The only reference to trees i can think of is the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil

what did jeremiah think:

Hear what the LORD says to you, O house of Israel. 2 This is what the LORD says:
"Do not learn the ways of the nations
or be terrified by signs in the sky,
though the nations are terrified by them.

3 For the customs of the peoples are worthless;
they cut a tree out of the forest,
and a craftsman shapes it with his chisel.

4 They adorn it with silver and gold;
they fasten it with hammer and nails
so it will not totter.

Seems like they were celebrating christams thousands of years before the birth of Jesus

so we have to ask the question who introduced it to the christian calendar, oh yes the pope, that's it

and before people say they don't worship the tree itself, we still adorn it with gold and silver and present it with gifts

like they did long ago

I am a freshman college student and today I went to an information meeting on International Student Volunteers trips. I would really, really love to go on one of these trips, but I know I wouldn't be able to afford it on my own. There is the option of getting sponsors and donations to raise money to go. So I was wondering if there is any one who has gone on an ISV trip and offset most or all of the cost who could tell me how difficult it was to raise the money. Tips on how to do it. All that. I haven't sent in an application yet because I don't want to get to excited only to find out I can't afford it.

I am writing an essay on oppression within our community and have found research to suggest that ethnic minorities do not use the services available to them as frequently as the national average. I am interested in the reasons why.

Us Pagans/ Heathens dont mind them using our holidays.


Easter, Christmas, Halloween, I have heard thanksgiving claimed with reasonable reasoning.

These are our holidays. Yule and Christmas are identical, in about every way. (when you de-victorianize it). Easter is identical, to ours. and Halloween is a christian holiday anyways.

So why dont you share? These our your traditions to.

So is it just me, or are fundies really stuck up and vainly prideful? (Which is a sin.)

I just want everything to be peaceful, I'll answer as many questions as possible, but a lot of these questions just make the questioner look stupid. I'd love to help, but there's too many bad questions to try to find the good ones to answer.

If I am part of Gods real church, The Body of Christ?
Am I Jehovahs witness if I witness to the glory and love of God found in Jesus of Nazareth?
Am I a latter day saint if I am part of the church of Jesus Christ, which is living in the later days?
Am I a Christian Scientist if I love Christ and science (Christ, much more)?
AM I a luthren if I believe that he is a spiritual hero for freeing us from the tyranny of the mega whore?
Am I a Baptist if I was baptized by emersion in the name of the father the son and the wholy spirit?
Am I a Penticostal only because it was in a penticostal church in New Jersy when I first saw the light?

Is The Father, Son and the Holy Spirit one God or not?
Is there one body of Jesus Christ (not the harlot) with him as the head (not the poop) or not?
