i agree with mark on this one, and no, you shouldn't say anything to him, because it may make him stop touching you, but he will know that u like him, and if at any time his feelings change towards you, and he starts to like you, he won't be scared …
yeah...its like my dad with me. wenever i do something wrong, or i have any bad habit that he doesn't like, all he would do is make fun of me, because he knows that yelling at me won't make me stop it. so he just tries to make fun of me and crack …
if you think that you can completely control yourself and stay tru to those limits that you are setting, then by all means, enjoy, but if your not really all that sure if u can keep ur limits, then maybe abstinance is better for u. these may all be…

Hi all,
I think meeting and having crushes with people on the web is a better scenario than in real life. The danger in reality and what the church is afraid o…
yep!! and monastary's for nuns [i don't remember what they are called right now] only have one deacon and one priest. then you have the rest of the ENTIRE church with only nons singing all of the hymns the deacons usually sing, and the deacon insid…
whether your a guy or girl...when u have a crush on sumbody, and ur still at a young age, you know deep inside yourself that it's not real love. But then you start thinking to yourself..maybe this is an exception and this is real love. and we say …
in my opinion there isn't a thing wrong with it, and if girls aren't meant to use their voice and participate, then why are they also encouraged to learn alhan and a lot of that stuff. but i don't think the verse was referring to singing hymns and …

thats a mere temptation, which God ALLOWS the devil to do just so that we can ask for His help, and almost all of the people i know that have gotten in a car accident ended up closer to God than they were before because after the devil tempted them,…
drinking and/or getting drunk [from alcohol] is something that would effect and hurt your spirituality and your body. on the other hand, getting into a car accident effects and hurts only your body.
The body fades away. at the end, your spiritual…
i remember having a reference to this a while ago, but i can't find it now. to the best of my recollection, the quran says that they are to try to convert anybody and everybody to islam, and if they refuse, then they are to kill them. But not all …
Mark 12:30

I agree 100% with mark, and i'm sorry wfhanna1, but i beg to differ with you.
so according to what you guys said about how drinking is a sin and that alcoholic beverages are a sin than that means half the Communion is a sin now.
no no no no no no…
um..they didn't know blood level's back then...and i don't think they knew levels of drunkeness or alcohol either. i sort of disagree with Suzanna.
