my friend told me she was Bi....im not though. i kind of already had a feeling she was because she would make comments towards other girls . Example: she is so pretty,her booty is bigger then mine and yours,look at her boobs they are big. we were watching 101 most hottest bodies and JLO was on there she was just watching the screen like she was crazy or something. i told her i was but im not. i lied to her,i pannic. but after she told me and we talked about it. She started acting different towards me like she may like me or something. How do i ask her do she? I just would like to know.never had a friend that was Bi. i dont want her to be hurt if i ask (if you know what i mean). But i need to know because she always saying something that a girl shouldnt say to another girl. FOR THE RECORD I HAVE NO PREOBLEM WITH HER BEIN BI-SEXUAL. IM NOT BI-SEXUAL IM STRIAGHT

Thanks for the answers I got for origin of the name India. But still have a doubt. In what way were the original settlers of American continent related to Sindhu river in India. if not, why did they get the name ''Indians''.
What does the word Indians mean when not applied to the country India. I tried to search the encyclopedia as to how the word originated, when origin from word sindhi is kept aside.
And would also like to know why west Indies is called Indies again?

I live in Montreal, Canada. One of the biggest problems of the image of the city is that too many people smoke here.

For some reason I think they believe it looks cool to smoke. I am not sure about this, so I need the opinion of people who smoke. Why do you smoke? Do you think it looks good? (I know it's an extremely addictive drug, I just want to know if this is another reason).

Personally I think it looks disgusting and smoking in general is quite unclean. I believe this is the opinion of most non-smokers, but I need your opinion as smokers.

Non-smokers are also invited to answer this question. Thanks!

"While the Israelites were in the desert, a man was discovered gathering wood on the Sabbath day. Those who caught him at it brought him to Moses and Aaron and the whole assembly. But they kept him in custody, for there was no clear decision as to what should be done with him.

Then the Lord said to Moses, "This man shall be put to death; let the whole community stone him outside the camp."

So the whole community led him outside the camp and stoned him to death as the Lord had commanded Moses." Numbers 15:32-36 NAB

Do you tend to vote for the person who has religious views that are closest to yours or does that not matter that much to you? Or do you vote against someone because of their religion?

Ok, so a few of my friends enjoy saying that all atheists are really saying they know everything if they say God does not exist. Usualyy I just tell them that Athiests just have "faith" that God does not exist. But what is a better more intelligent way to answer this statement?

This question is open to Christians or non Christians and folks who are not quite sure. In fact anybody.

The Bible says that Jesus rose from the dead, which I believe to be true.

But, we read he said to Mary who saw him at the grave side "Do not clink to me, for I have not yet accended to my Father."

Then later we read that He told duobting Thomas to put his hand in His side and to examine His hands, then Thomas fell at Jesus's feet beheld Him and worshipped Him. Saying my Lord and my God.

Therefore, is it likely that Jesus first went up to Heaven to His Father God then came back down again.

Before going back up to Heaven to be at the right hand side of God His Father.

Because Jesus throught His ministry always let his deciples and followers embrace Him and kiss Him, whether they were men or woman and I am sure children too for that matter.

And he loved Mary very much, enough to die for her, which he did on the cross or tree if you prefer.

The battle between good and evil is supposed to happen at the end of the world. I think the bible says the evil will take over, but God will descend from the Heavens and save us all? or something like that.

This sounds really pessimisstic, but who else thinks that armageddon isn't to far off? I mean, look at our world. It's filthy. There's violence and rape and parents turning from their children and children turning from their parents. I mean sure, maybe those things ALWAYS happened, but it seems like people are learning evil at a younger and younger age. Sometimes I think that the only thing keeping the world together is the innocence that children have.

Does anyone agree with me? or am I just one of those raving lunatics that you see on the streets, screaming about the end of the world?

Oh, btw. Athiests, Buddhists, Christians, Catholics, Jews...whatever you are, you're welcome to answer.

I have been talking to this girl on aim for a year and a half and in that time I have seen her twice once at her work and once at a craft show for her sister both time she ran off to the bathroom when she saw me. The last time I saw her was 11 months ago and I since tried to hang out with her she says she wants to hang out with me but find reasons not to. I told her if she doesn’t want to see that’s cool but she says no that she wants to see me? She loves to flirt sexy pics ECT. I just wanted to hang out as friends and see were things go if nothing but friendship then fine I am not looking for sex I am waiting till marriage and have told her that many times. So I stopped talking to her cuz I just got sick of it all. Two weeks ago she text me saying should come over to her house.

I ignored it then I got on Monday saying that she did something that would make me proud and she would tell me if I responded. Then Tuesday she call me on my cell (which I left at home) and text me saying

I don't go to church and I'm suppose to be Catholic. Ever since the molestations I've stayed away and am quite disgusted. I sometimes wonder if there really is a god. I've read stories where things (miracles) happen, and how people meet up, like adopted siblings working together and not knowing, it kind of makes me think that there really is a god. Has anyone had any experience that made you a true believer? I really want to believe, but at the same time it's really hard for me.

Rearing children is difficult and complicated and requires careful attention and deligence. So it is common for parents to feel at a loss when it comes to child rearing. Many feel the need for help. Obviously, every loving parent wants to get the best guidance. Where can such guidance be found?

I stayed up till 1 o'clock am and go to sleep. Beforehand I had a little dark chocolate I haven't had in awhile. It felt like I slept for hours then I hear my jimmy buffet playing (helps me sleep) sound becomes infrared. Then I hear a syphoning sound for one minute, I prayed like "God jesus whats going on, help me, please O'god!" And it went away, I have been closer to my faith lately, reading the bible, praying, you know. I am a prodastant.

Mine is Rahab. She is also an outstanding example of one who, though not an Israelite, by works proved her complete faith in Jehovah. Hebrews11:30, 31 tells us “By faith,” “Rahab the harlot did not perish with those who acted disobediently, because she received the spies in a peaceable way.” James 2:25 asks “Was not also Rahab the harlot declared righteous by works, after she had received the messengers hospitably and sent them out by another way?”
She turned her life around, became a faithful servant of Jehovah's and was priviledged to become an ancestress of Christ.

my gosh, another night of chaos at my restaurant. I really can't believe people who still do not tip, they are cheap son of a guns. I always provided excellent service and go above and beyond for my customers. I understand that some people are just stingy like that , but it just irritates me whenever i think about it becuase I have to pay tax based on my sales, so it is like they i am paying for their meal. tonight a guy actually came in and wanted to order a beer with food but he was short on a dollars and dared to ask me to pay for the difference. ....i am glad he was honest enough to ask me if i was willing to pay a dollar for his meal before i took his order. I strongly believe that people who don't believe in tipping like Mr. Pink should stay home. what do you think?
