Do you find it hard to call an adult male names like Jimmy, Timmy, Tommy, Billy, Sammy? It's Very Southern, and I know and love so many southerners that I just accept it for what it is. Johnny Depp hales from Kentucky. I find it strange that in U.S. society, shortening a beautiful female name (Suzanne to Suzie, Kathryn to Kathy, etc.) does not have the same stigma.

Would you think a marriage with a high school sweetheart would last-or most likely end with a divorce? In my experience, most of these marriages end. You simply have not discovered your self while you're still in school and living with your parents, and you're not the same person at 30 that you were at 18. It's possible that two high school sweethearts will develop along the same lines and grow in the same direction, but it's rare.

LOL. Oh and what prison is he in? Manson's death sentence was automatically reduced to life imprisonment when a decision by the Supreme Court of California temporarily eliminated the state's death penalty. California's eventual reestablishment of capital punishment did not affect Manson, who is an inmate at Corcoran State Prison.

I would ike to know if I can sell my house by lottery. Each person would buy a ticket for $1,000.00 lets say. Then after I get enough tickets, I would draw a ticket by lottery with people present to annouce a winner. I live in Kansas. There's a movie about this being done, "Spitfire Grill." I would think you'd have to stipulate that if you don't get enough takers, they get their money back and you keep your house.

The sleep tight came from a time before bed springs, when bed frames were strung with ropes to hold the mattress. Sleeping tight meant that the ropes wouldn't sag causing a bad nights sleep.

How do you rebuild trust? Our issue is him lying/hiding bad activities online. He said he'd stop & he did the same things since I can't see if he did or not. I don't want to blindly trust him again. How can I know if he's being honest & trustworthy? Ever hear the phrase, 'fool me once, shame on you. fool me twice, shame on me.' Not wanting to do something you know you should is only stretching out unhappiness.

My wife returned from church yesterday with documentation (which appears credible) concerning the pastor's sexual deviancy. I'm beginning to wonder...is sexual repression and/or forced abstinance a vurtue or a sickness? I read recently that 50% of Christian men polled admitted to a sexual addiction of one kind or another. Polls being what they are I'd never take it as 'gospel', but it made me wonder the very same thing as your question.

A human heart starts beating 21 days after conception. Doctors have proven that abortion is painful to the fetus. Why is killing a human OK if you cannot see it? It's not that killing is okay, ever, it's that not everyone who gets pregnant is capable of giving a good life to their offspring or finding a good life for them.

Never lived together, never consummated the marriage - heck am I even legally married, it was over the phone. If you qualify, you could get free legal advice in your county. At any rate, when I divorced my husband I went to the court house and got the papers I needed and filed them myself. I met with a judge after six months and he finalized it. It doesn't get much cheaper than that but none of the court costs (filings, etc.) will be free.

What would be your thoughts on if a older church member regularly surfed "MySpace" accounts to make sure that the young people in the congregation didn't have any questionable content posted on their page? Also, this has been made public knowledge. Interestingly enough, I just read a survey that stated that 50% of Christian men in the U.S. are addicted to porn. I don't trust surveys, but it got me thinking. Maybe the question is how this older church member knows about MySpace and why they're really regularly surfing it!! Sounds like the elders in your church need to sit this brother (or sister) down.

Teenagers are concerned with what their friends have or get to do, they're hormonal, and mostly the reason that their parents start finding white hairs peppering their head.

Sura 4:34, "Men are in charge of women, because Allah hath made the one of them to excel the other... So good women are the obedient...As for those from whom ye fear rebellion, admonish them and banish them." What does this verse mean? To me it means that men concocted a religion that set them in charge of women because they decided that men excel over women. It gives men permission to admonish (beat) and banish (kill) women who they suspect of rebellion because good women are obedient.

Words definitely have power, thus the phrase "those are fightin' words."
