of the Virgin Mary and Child, I am personally a Pagan but I thought it would be in keeping with the holiday. I was told to stand down as this might be construed as "Pollitically Incorrect". So, the question is have we gone to far in judgement of what is proper and what is not?

Coming up in elementary school I had male friends who we knew would grow up and become gay and did. I experienced dating 2 undercover wanna fly right gay men in high school. In high school my best friends bf left her for a guy after complainingly confessing to sleeping with a transexual unknowingly. Her brother after high school became openly gay.. Going clubbing with a gay male friend really opened my eyes to how big the gay world really is. Most people are closet cases hiding behind the computer under an alias or hiding behind the phone on a partyline dating service for "interactive males." Some men will fight if said to be gay... and then theres footage of that same individual getting right with the same sex!!

I'm going out with a girl i met online in a couple days. We've been talking online, have talked on the phone, and are meeting in public. I'm a bisexual female, and have never been on a date with a girl before. On top of that, I've never been on a blind date or met anyone online. I'm so nervous!! What to wear, what to talk about(i'm shy and know i'm going to blush like crazy!).
As a side note, we BOTH have boyfriends who are supportive of our lifestyle, and aware of whats going on. they aren't a part of it AT ALL. i know it sounds a little strange but I don't need any advice on that end of it, i love my relationship. I'm just so used to being with a man, I haven't ever been on a date with a girl! help :)

From my personal experience, I never truly understood my need of God until I went through a horrible period of my life. Science, philosophy and theology meant absolutely nothing to me during that time. His presence was what pulled me through. Jesus was there suffering with me. Call my faith prejudiced because a part of it is based on evidence of what I experienced, but He was there when I was broken.

As I observe people now, I find it ironic how most objections to God's existence from the problem of suffering come from people who are quite comfortable with life, while those who do experience such harm seem to become stronger believers rather than stronger agnostics.

If you are on your dying bed, terrified of being alone, the most important thing to you is not an explanation but another's presence. Someone to sit with you. God was that someone. For that reason, I love him.

Back in the 50s, there was a religious advocate that would pre-screen movie scenes and he could object if it was too risque.
They have gradually morphed into doing whatever they want, including cursing, sex, and intoxification with drugs or alcohol. What is the reason for this?

An old, blind cowboy wanders into an all-girl biker bar by mistake.

He finds his way to a bar stool and orders some coffee. After sitting there for a while, he yells to the waiter, "Hey, you wanna hear a blonde joke?"

The bar immediately falls absolutely silent. In a very deep, husky voice, the woman next to him says, "Before you tell that joke, Cowboy, I think it is only fair, given that you are blind, that you should know five things:

1. The bartender is a blonde girl with a baseball bat.
2. The bouncer is a blonde girl.
3. I'm a 6-foot tall, 175-pound blonde woman with a black belt in karate.
4. The woman sitting next to me is blonde and a professional weightlifter.
5. The lady to your right is blonde and a professional wrestler.

"Now, think about it seriously, Mister. Do you still wanna tell that joke?"

The blind cowboy thinks for a second, shakes his head, and mutters, "No...not if I'm gonna have to explain it five times
