i know all the candle colors and what they mean but does the size of the candles matter? ive been doing thoes long candles but i ran out of red candles and i wont be able to go buy some more until next saturday. Ive never come across this problem before but does the size of the candle matter? ive been reserching through all my books and on the internet none say anything about the size of the candles so im guessning thats ok but i want to check with the experts who have been doing this longer than me. oh yea dont try saying that what im doing is evil because i will not be swayed and dont say im not expireienced because i am just not with the size lol oh and for the people who say wait until next saturday i cant i have to light a red candle every day until the zodiac of scorpio is over and for other reasons!

ok, i'm a catholic, i go to church every week and i'm always willing to help others out whe they ned help, especially older people like the elderly. I love all my family and i dontate to charity and charity shops for poor countries. Thats the good side. The bad side is that i go on porn and masturbate. I don't know if this is ok or not because like I dont think theres anything wrong with it but my religion does. I need to know, will the bad side get me a one way ticket to hell or is it whats inside and what i do for others that counts?

A Sunday school teacher asked her class, "What was Jesus' Mother's name?"

One child answered, "Mary."

The teacher then asked, "Who knows what Jesus' Father's name was?"

Another child said, "The Verge."

Confused, the teacher asked, "Where did you get that?"

The little one said, "Well, you know they are always talking about The Verge 'n' Mary."

Hi. I was just wondering.....

In the Bible it tells us that Adam and Eve were the first people on earth....making Cain and Abel the 3rd and 4th, right?

Why, then, after Cain killed Abel was he saying to God that if he had to be a vagrant all over the world (because God was banishing him from the land) that whoever he came upon might kill him? (paraphrased from Genisis Chapter 4) I thought at that time there were only the four of them.

Thanks so much for your thoughtful answers.

My kids (teenagers) asked me and I would like to know how to explain it.

I am going to go get it for a challenge that was issued earlier and I am supposed to be reading Chapter 7. I have been thinking about reading the whole thing.

Should I go ahead and read the whole thing?

Atheists would you be interested in having a discussion with me if I read the whole thing?

If a god/religion is the one true god/religion it shouldn't need preachers or people to tell someone about it.

If our bodies can hold that energy why can't our energy evolve like everything else?

I don't think death of our energy is true.

If energy dosen't die, if we are energy(energy that helped form us) , we don't die, we just separate or change.
If i got brain damage I would still exist as a stupid me.....I just changed like a magot to a fly. If matter can evolve then why not energy?

Try to lay down with no use of your senses and you will know it is your soul that initiates what you want, when, and how you want to think.
Your soul picks what to think or else you would be a computer that had to have a controller(maker also).

If Im alive and loose my memory I still exist whether it in my own crazy world or not (so the matter of the brain isen't our true existance) If im on acid or crack I might act like a different person but Im still my own existance not yours.

My point is my existance is still me if I loose a leg, part of brain, our my family jewls I still exist somehow

Again, I'm not attempting to challenge faith. I am interested in the opinions of both nonbelievers and believers. Here is one of my favorites, by Robert Frost:

FIRE AND ICE

SOME say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I’ve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To know that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

What does this poem mean to you? Although written many years ago, is the poem relavent today? How does it conflict or comply with your beliefs? Any other thoughts would be apprreciated.

I am a young man (early 20s) suffering immensely from sexual attration to men. Thus far I have never acted on my attractions and never wish to do so.

Instead, I am hoping and praying I will be able to overcome these attractions and be straight. I know I cannot function as a homosexual, because for me the shame, guilt, STD risk, and religious consequences are too great for me to ever be happy in this way of life.

So do you believe change is possible? And if so, how can I change?

This question is serious and desperate and I do not mean to cause anyone offense.

This is assuming they are old enough to decide what they do and do not believe in. I'm not talking about very young children.
