How soon after Christmas should I send thank you notes for the gifts I received from my relatives? And if I received one gift from 2 relatives that do not reside in the same house, should I write them both a separate thank you note?

If you atheists think you're so smart, than why would you think there is an answer to the big bang? The big bang created the universe, which you are in and can't escape. There is basically no explanation to it so just drop it!

Okay, I'm a good person. I've done countless things for other people. I've got aspirations to help the world, and I feel really bad when I see evil prospering in the world. Now I look around and I see EVERYONE, and I mean everyone getting their blessings. I have financial problems. I have been diagnosed with 'folliculitis' which is a hair follicle disease in which you get small boils on the back of your neck. I'm ornithophobic(in a big city btw). I havent had a relationship my whole life, and all of my 'socalled' friends, only want to be friends when it's conveniant. My college keeps getting my information wrong so I've been here, waiting for college for almost two years. Now I've been an avid follower of God, advised people when they were down to trust in him. Some on here might say that I'll get my blessing in time, but eh, I just dont' think so. I feel that God does hate me. I have barely anything good going in my life and it depresses me. Does God hate me?

okay,
I go to a public school.
and we are not allowed to talk about Christmas in school, or play holiday music on the radio because it might 'offend' people who dont celebrate that specific holiday.
BUT,
in our choir, band, orchestra holiday concert we are allowed to play/sing music that has the word Christmas or Christ in it!!!!

doesnt that offend anyone now?

what is wrong???

I work with an organization that is looking to recruit volunteers for a one day (although long event). The volunteers would have to go through a training (which would last up to 3 hours, although most people will take a 2 hour class).

With vacations, the New Year approaching and cold weather, we're finding it pretty difficult to recruit. My organization has no money in the budget to post in the newspaper or on the jobs section of Craigslist.

We plan to drop off applications and posters at our local libraries, local universities/colleges, and perhaps some community centers/places where there are message boards. We also intend to try online sites that are aimed toward recruiting, general social networks or other places to post items of interest.

Suggestions? Other ideas? Our event is in early Feb, and people have to be signed up as soon as possible.

If you messed up so bad on a job you just hosed it away and started all over except for a chosen few does that make you think of perfection in any way i.e. God?

Okay, so we've understood how the earth and universe around us works, and we've found answers to many questions that weren't answered in the past, but how was the universe created? Where did it come from?

Alright, please don't judge me, I recently experienced the loss of my mother, and my gay friend (male) was the only person there for me (I'm female). We slept in the same bed last night (not something unusual for us), but before we realized it we were naked and we were making love. Although I initiated it, he had a very active part in it (he was on top for a lot of the time), and neither of us really seemed to think about what we were doing. However, I think that he only agreed to do it with me because he wanted to try to make me feel better. I'm sure he's still 100% gay. And although we both enjoyed it, we both had big regrets in the morning.

I feel bad, not only because I had sex with my [blatantly] gay friend, but because I used physical pleasure to push my grief from my mind.

I am worried (as is he) that our friendship will never be the same. Is it possible that our friendship won't change, that we can look at this experience as a simple bump in the road of our friendship?
