it won't hurt if you are lubed up. and don't plan it out with him. just let it happen. it will be better than planning it. you could plan it yourself. maybe surprise him or something. i'm not sure what pills would do that, but i'm using Yaz and i think i only gained weight because i'm not being very healthy. i think if you work out and eat right you'll be fine.

have you asked him what is wrong? maybe he's just the kind of guy who likes the peace and quiet time he could have with you.

does he like you? i think you should wait it out. wait until you know how you really feel. if things aren't going so well, then don't get with him. but if things are going good, as in, you "know" you're falling for him.

i was in your spot. i wasn't sure if i liked him either because i'd just got out of a serious relationship and he was there to help me. we told eachother everything. we were friends for a couple months then finally started liking eachother. we were screwing around for a long time then he finally asked me out. we were in love by then. we were helping eachother out like you are. i used to think that dating a good guy friend would ruin the relationship you already have. unless you both feel the same way and are going to commit to it. if you're not going to commit then don't ruin the friendship. i don't think this will help you much, but maybe you do like him. it's the best when you fall in love with your best friend. you already know each other. i know you're probably not think about love right now, and that's ok..it's what usually happens. you end up liking the guy you share things with. hopefully that helps a little

my first trip to the snow sucked..bring sunglasses or something like that..my eyes were burning for a few weeks after that day from the uv rays and cuz it was so bright..bring extra clothes for afterward, you'll get really wet especially when you're slipping and wearing regular shoes..so go buy some snow boots and gloves, if you want of course. and everything the other person said..i've never gone skiing neither..but have fun.

that happened to me too, but on the playlist thing at the bottom right corner should say manage playlist..click on it..then click on "my profile playlist" and you can drag your songs in any order..under "my profile playlist" is the history..you could add them again and you could delete the others. i don't know if that makes sense but you'll figure it out if you haven't already. good luck

it is because of yaz..i'm taking that too..it's supposed to make your periods shorter and what the other person said, spotty, i'm not sure what that is though..and the brownish stuff has happened to me also..you're ok.

i don't know if you have a teen clinic around, but if you do, ask for birth control pills. i think you're fine if you have sex 7-14 days after your period. i don't suggest it..that's just what the doctor said..but for future references, if you're ever worried or if he gets some in you, go ask for "plan B" (morning after pill) as soon as you can, 5 days max.

well it seems to me that he wants something a little more than just holding hands..if you don't want to go any further, let him know..and if he doesn't respect that, don't do it just because you don't wanna lose him..communication is the key to a good relationship..and tell him you hope he understands..

you should forgive everyone..it will be hard to trust him again, but you don't have to right away..some people just don't know what they want..or maybe he's just a jerk..try to keep busy, it sometimes keeps my mind off things..spend some time with other people and try to have fun.

well if you really like him and you want him to like you again, then let him know how you feel, tell him something like, you're sorry for turning him down and you realized that it was a mistake and you really like him..hope that helps a little

so, how about some shakespeare..his stuff is pretty well known..

well, i hope this will help a little.

Does evil exist or is it better stated that evil is just the absence of something good?



“Let me explain the problem science has with religion." The atheist professor of philosophy pauses before his class and then asks one of his new students to stand.

“You're a Christian, aren't you, son?"

"Yes sir," the student says.

"So you believe in God?"

"Absolutely."

"Is God good?"

"Sure! God's good."

"Is God all-powerful? Can God do anything?"

"Yes."

"Are you good or evil?"

"The Bible says I'm evil."

The professor grins knowingly. "Aha! The Bible!" He considers for a moment. "Here's one for you. Let's say there's a sick person over here and you can cure him. You can do it. Would you help him? Would you try?"

"Yes sir, I would."

"So you're good...!"

"I wouldn't say that."

"But why not say that? You'd help a sick and maimed person if you could. Most of us would if we could. But God doesn't."

The student does not answer, so the professor continues. "He doesn't, does he? My brother was a Christian who died of cancer, even though he prayed to Jesus to heal him. How is this Jesus good? Hmmm? Can you answer that one?"

The student remains silent.

"No, you can't, can you?" the professor says. He takes a sip of water from a glass on his desk to give the student time to relax.

"Let's start again, young fella. Is God good?"

"Er...yes," the student says.

"Is Satan good?"

The student doesn't hesitate on this one. "No."

"Then where does Satan come from?"

The student falters. "From God"

"That's right. God made Satan, didn't he? Tell me, son. Is there evil in this world?"

"Yes, sir."

"Evil's everywhere, isn't it? And God did make everything, correct?"

"Yes."

"So who created evil?" The professor continued, "If God created everything, then God created evil, since evil exists, and according to the principle that our works define who we are, then God is evil."

Again, the student has no answer. "Is there sickness? Immorality? Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible things, do they exist in this world?"

The student squirms on his feet. "Yes."

"So who created them?"

The student does not answer again, so the professor repeats his question. "Who created them?" There is still no answer. Suddenly the lecturer breaks away to pace in front of the classroom. The class is mesmerized. "Tell me," he continues onto another student. "Do you believe in Jesus Christ, son?"

The student's voice betrays him and cracks. "Yes, professor, I do."

The old man stops pacing. "Science says you have five senses you use to identify and observe the world around you. Have you ever seen Jesus?"

"No sir. I've never seen Him."

"Then tell us if you've ever heard your Jesus?"

"No, sir, I have not."

"Have you ever felt your Jesus, tasted your Jesus or smelt your Jesus? Have you ever had any sensory perception of Jesus Christ, or God for that matter?"

"No, sir, I'm afraid I haven't."

"Yet you still believe in him?"

"Yes."

"According to the rules of empirical, testable, demonstrable protocol, science says your God doesn't exist. What do you say to that, son?"

"Nothing," the student replies. "I only have my faith."

"Yes, faith," the professor repeats. "And that is the problem science has with God. There is no evidence, only faith."

The student stands quietly for a moment, before asking a question of His own. "Professor, is there such thing as heat?"

"Yes," the professor replies. "There's heat."

"And is there such a thing as cold?"

"Yes, son, there's cold too."

"No sir, there isn't."

The professor turns to face the student, obviously interested. The room suddenly becomes very quiet. The student begins to explain. "You can have lots of heat, even more heat, super-heat, mega-heat, unlimited heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat, but we don't have anything called 'cold'. We can hit up to 458 degrees below zero, which is no heat, but we can't go any further after that. There is no such thing as cold; otherwise we would be able to go colder than the lowest -458 degrees."

"Every body or object is susceptible to study when it has or transmits energy, and heat is what makes a body or matter have or transmit energy. Absolute zero (-458 F) is the total absence of heat. You see, sir, cold is only a word we use to describe the absence of heat. We cannot measure cold. Heat we can measure in thermal units because heat is energy. Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir, just the absence of it."

Silence across the room. A pen drops somewhere in the classroom, sounding like a hammer.

"What about darkness, professor. Is there such a thing as darkness?"

"Yes," the professor replies without hesitation. "What is night if it isn't darkness?"

"You're wrong again, sir. Darkness is not something; it is the absence of something. You can have low light, normal light, bright light, flashing light, but if you have no light constantly you have nothing and it's called darkness, isn't it? That's the meaning we use to define the word."

"In reality, darkness isn't. If it were, you would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn't you?"

The professor begins to smile at the student in front of him. This will be a good semester. "So what point are you making, young man?"

"Yes, professor. My point is, your philosophical premise is flawed to start with, and so your conclusion must also be flawed."

The professor's face cannot hide his surprise this time. "Flawed? Can you explain how?"

"You are working on the premise of duality," the student explains. "You argue that there is life and then there's death; a good God and a bad God. You are viewing the concept of God as something finite, something we can measure. Sir, science can't even explain a thought."

"It uses electricity and magnetism, but has never seen, much less fully understood either one. To view death as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the fact that death cannot exist as a substantive thing. Death is not the opposite of life, just the absence of it."

"Now tell me, professor. Do you teach your students that they evolved from a monkey?"

"If you are referring to the natural evolutionary process, young man, yes, of course I do."

"Have you ever observed evolution with your own eyes, sir?"

The professor begins to shake his head, still smiling, as he realizes where the argument is going. A very good semester, indeed.

"Since no one has ever observed the process of evolution at work and cannot even prove that this process is an on-going endeavor, are you not teaching your opinion, sir? Are you now not a scientist, but a preacher?"

The class is in uproar. The student remains silent until the commotion has subsided.

"To continue the point you were making earlier to the other student, let me give you an example of what I mean."

The student looks around the room. "Is there anyone in the class who has ever seen the professor's brain?" The class breaks out into laughter.

"Is there anyone here who has ever heard the professor's brain, felt the professor's brain, touched or smelt the professor's brain? No one appears to have done so. So, according to the established rules of empirical, stable, demonstrable protocol, science says that you have no brain, with all due respect, sir."

"So if science says you have no brain, how can we trust your lectures, sir?"

Now the room is silent. The professor just stares at the student, his face unreadable.

Finally, after what seems an eternity, the old man answers. "I guess you'll have to take them on faith."

"Now, you accept that there is faith, and, in fact, faith exists with life," the student continues. "Now, sir, is there such a thing as evil?"

Now uncertain, the professor responds, "Of course, there is. We see it everyday. It is in the daily example of man's inhumanity to man. It is in the multitude of crime and violence everywhere in the world. These manifestations are nothing else but evil."

To this the student replied, "Evil does not exist sir, or at least it does not exist unto itself. Evil is simply the absence of God. It is just like darkness and cold, a word that man has created to describe the absence of God. God did not create evil. Evil is the result of what happens when man does not have God's love present in his heart. It's like the cold that comes when there is no heat or the darkness that comes when there is no light."

The professor sat down.

well, i used to be like you..except the vampire thing, just the emo christian part..i don't know if anyone in my family knew but my brother said something about it once and i thought to myself, "wow, they still care"..like everyone said, cutting is dangerous and your parents do care, i know it's hard to believe sometimes..i told myself that i was not going to do it ever again..and i haven't for about a year and a half now..i suggest you go with the punishment so they'll trust you again..promise them that you'll never do it again..and follow through with it. show them that there is nothing wrong.

i think you'll have plenty of time..talk to him about how you won't get to give him as much time as you used to because you really wanna be a cheerleader..and if he can't respect that then he would be a crappy boyfriend..

zehn, ten

yeah..no problem..sorry it took me so long to answer..i haven't checked this for a while..my email is pa_hua_xiong@hotmail.com , i wasn't sure how else i could give it to you..hopefully you get this.

you could try taking her out and help her understand that there are better men out there..take her shopping..introduce her to someone you think is a good man..she probably wouldn't wanna hear this but tell her that things happen for a reason -i hated this saying but i finally understand it now- sorry to say, but maybe she's supposed to suffer a little and find out on her own that life will get better..

if you're on the pill it shouldn't matter

you probably have a yeast infection..it's not an std and it's not bad..its caused by stress..but if i were you, i~d go to a clinic and find out yourself, just to be safe..it's confidential no matter your age
