Everytime I criticize the ohh so sacred christian religion people tell me that I SHOULD be repectful of other persons faith. Why is it taboo to critize somebody elses religious faith? What other areas of our lives are exempt from rational discourse? What makes religion so special? I dont respect your beliefs! I think your beliefs in the Judeo-Christian God is stupid.

My son has a friend who likes to snuggle up to me and acts very gay. He likes to rough house with me when my oldest is there. I never am alone with him because he is not my son and there are always people who are quick to yell and accuse.

Well, over the Thanksgiving break he stayed the night several times with my oldest son and all three boys, my son, his friend and my youngest son would all sit next to me on the couch while we were watching movies. It has gotten cold so my son's friend (who is 11 going on 12) snuggled up to me and I put my arm around him like I do my son and my hand was on his thigh.

He is really a sweet kid and I don't know if I am being paranoid or what, was that inappropriate? Did I overstep my boundaries with him?

I think he may be somewhat gay or bi and I don't want to give him the wrong idea and I don't want to do anything wrong. His father doesn't have much to do with him and his mom is remarried but his step-dad isn't very affectionate with him.

Stubby.
A lifetime in a mere second,
A body weakened in haste,
A tearful eye watching on,
Coming to an end he now tastes.
A loving heart put to rest,
A hard worked hand now new,
A glorious spirit lifted high,
His words forever I love you.
A family left asking why?
Hear the words they will say,
Can I pass thy heavenly gates?
Stubby of course yes you may.
Cast your minds away from pain,
Let you thoughts be of none,
But for the battles he fought,
And remember this - he won.

This will probebly sound a little weird, but im serious!
Earlier this night, my little bro came into my room and wanted to talk. (he is staying at my house until tomorrow cuz our parents are still freaking out cuz we both came out). He wanted to know why mom and dad didnt accept us etc. this talk lasted a while and it ended up with him asking "So if your really bi, and Im gay, do you want to..." (me; O_o) I said " Your kidding, right?" he said " yah just a joke, see ya" and he left my room.

O_o

Im not sure if I hurt his feelings or not, or if he felt "betrayed" cuz he made no viseable signs... I dont know if i should talk to him or not, or what to say, but PLEASE HELP!!!

I mean to say the most grievous moment when you feel indignity (being humilated) by someone's behaviour & secondly the most pleasant moment in your life when you feel most happiness. I think that this question is little bit personal, but if we think that is the part of our life, sometimes painful & some times enjoyful experiences then there is nothing wrong to share. Please be logical without any joke.

If Jesus and Adam were both created in God's image and contained God's DNA than why didn't Adam and the rest of humanity after Adam have all the powers of God while on Earth as Jesus did? Raise the dead, cure disease, etc. What made Jesus so different?

sry its long but details are kinda important...i have 2 younger sisters. one is 11 and the other is 5. i've been involved with this girl for a while though we arent official and she is the first time ive been with another girl. my family doesnt know that im bi, basically because they are so closed minded. i dont think they would kick me out or anything, but my mom always makes the most rude remarks towards the gay community. its so sad and im worried it is having an effect on my younger sisters. just today the 11 yr old said someone was a f@g. it made me so angry, but more towards my mom. my question is should i try to talk to my sisters about me being bi, so they will be more accepting to it before my mother completely brain washes them? what would you do in this situaton?

Is it true that the Texas Constitution allows discrimination against atheists? I heard that you had to admit to believing in a 'supreme being' to hold public office in Texas. If so, how is that legal when federal law doesn't allow discrimination?

I've been Catholic for the past 10 years but after visiting a local protestant church I've felt welcomed and the presence of God. I love the church but have only one problem, communion. I miss taking the eucharist every Sunday and feel funny about it. I haven't joined the church yet but the Catholic churches up where I live are cold and unfriendly. I need to feel a part of a church but in the same vein I miss the communion. Has anyone had this experience? What did you do? Is it okay to miss communion? I feel undecided just on that idea. The church teaches the bible and really ministers to my heart. Give me your experiences without judgement and legalise. Thank you.

I posted this under R&S, but it might be better under Ettiquite? I'll try it here, too.

There is this lady who works at my mother's apartment complex. She is part of the maintenace staff. She is very sweet and and is extremely helpful to my mom. She's very friendly, and we talk regularly. As someone who celebrares Christmas, every year I bake goodies, or wrap little Christmas candles to give to casual acquaintences, such as neighbors, the postman, etc. This year I had planned to give a gift like this to each of my mom's maintenance staff. However, yesterday, in casual conversation I found out that this one woman is Jehovah's Witness. That's OK with me as I have NO bias whatsoever. However, my question is: Is it appropriate or in-appropriate to go ahead and give her this little rememberance? If it's not appropriate, should I scrap the idea of giving them to any of the maintenance staff? I would hate to give everybody something but her. But I don't want to commit
