a bit messed up here?
I need your guys' help/advice (not the most proper English, I know). I'm trying to find some websites about people and their control issues. I've not been able to find anything. Also, if anyone could tell me the basic reason(s) why we as people feel the need to control our situation, or sometimes, other people. Thanks a lot and God bless!
4 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agoWhat religion is Barack Obama? UCC or Methodist?
My brother and I have been discussing Mr. Obama's background. We know his dad,who is from Kenya, was raised a Muslim, though he claimed to be a "confirmed athiest". His mom, American, was "detached from religion". Obama has been baptized, that much I know; but I cannot find what faith he subscribes to now. Thank you for any information you can pass along!
7 AnswersOther - Politics & Government1 decade agoWhat do they mean by this anacronym (p.b.u.h.)?
I have been reading answers to the question "Why did God sacrifice himself to save humanity from himself?" and there were a couple of people (sumon1confused & zarah j) who referred to Jesus as "(p.b.u.h.)". I take it from their answers that they don't think much of Jesus. But is their anacronym meant to be derogatory and offensive? What do they mean by writing that? Any answers would be helpful, thanks.
13 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoWhat does one do when your little one (15 month old) keeps scratching you and others in the face?
My little niece, Cate, out of nowhere will scratch and pull hair. It is difficult to know what triggors her aggressive behavior. Most times, when she does this stuff, she is sitting on someone's lap, or sitting near her brother and/or sister. I babysit a lot for my sister's children (6 yrs., 3 yrs. and 15 months) and I just do not know what to do. She seems oblivious to timeout (in her crib) or to any sort of discussion on "nice touches". Anybody have any good, constructive ideas? I could really use some help. Thanks so much!
13 AnswersToddler & Preschooler1 decade agoCan anyone tell me what the name of the cloth that Veronica used to wipe the face of Jesus during his passion?
My sister and I saw the Passion of the Christ and we were wondering if anyone knew if the cloth that Veronica used to wipe Jesus' face had been given a name. For example, the burial cloth they used to wrap Jesus in after he died is called the Shroud of Turin. We were just curious. Any information might be helpful. Thank you
