Thanks I guess you are all right. It is just not what I wanted for him. I wanted custody to show him a better way to live but he wanted to be in the city. Thanks for responding

Hi I am the used to be non custodial parent of my son who is now 21. He was picked up on a warrent. But originally it was not his fault but he did miss his court date. On the phone he says they will let him out tomorrow. I am wondering. I am having trouble dealing with this and is there anything I can do.

OK how's this
I am a full time student and I have asked for help on my homework. I am amazed at the incredible response.
Here are the questions with my answers?
I was looking for a contrasting belief for the basis of my interview essay.
1) Do you practice religion? If so, which one?
a. Why or why not?
Yes catholism. I practice Catholicism because I was raised Catholic and I believe what I was taught, for the most part.

2. What does your religion do for you? If you are a non-believer, what does the term religion mean to you? and Are you a spiritual person?
Religion gives me the opportunity to worship with fellow believers. It also give me a guideline of what many founding fathers of the faith believe.

3. What do you think it means to be a follower of _________? (Fill in the blank with either your particular religion or atheist or agnostic)
I think Catholicism is basically believing in Jesus and also believing in the original founding of Christianity.

4. What is the single most important aspect of your religion to you, and why?
Jesus. Jesus is the single most important aspect of my religion because without Jesus in the picture I would not be religious at all

5. How do you determine right from wrong? The dictums of a religion or another source?
When I want to do right I believe I should do everything out of love and kindness. I also believe that whatever is done without faith is sin. I know that sounds a little drastic. However, when I question my motives for doing something and find I am motivated out of fear I usually will stop myself from doing something I ultimately believe is wrong

6. Do you believe life has a purpose? What is it?
Yes,Life is a journey into our own very soul. It is a time to uncover who we are and modify this entity of our spiritual existence

7. What is your concept of god?
I believe God is here. I believe God is more real than this laptop I am typing on. I believe God is Love and Wisdom and Grace and he is as close as we are to ourselves

You guys are awesome!!!

I want to just add my thought.
It seems to me we are not supposed to be able to prove or disprove God or a means of worshiping him. So we come up with our own stuff or follow a set of beliefs. It is really as individual as people are.
Even when we get angry or offended by eachother we are still expressing who we are.
Therefore I have chosen to sit back and watch the different beliefs like a painting of contrasting colors. I believe we are doing exactly what we were designed to do. Imagine the human race doing something right? There is a thought

You guys are great here are the questions:

Ya know Ken I used to think OK I believe in Jesus he died for my sins so great I will be more faithful before I die. Now I will party.
Well what happened was I naturally grew up and a lot of the rotten stuff I did ,that I know I am forgiven for ,I NOW feel emabarassed and bad about.
ie:Before I didn't care what my older kids wittnessed and now I see how they have paid in a way by not having the best upbringing. What I am sayin is that when I planned to get away with my sins I didn't account for the fact that my very essence is being transformed and my point of view feelings and opinion have changed.

I think it is great how much you can put into words

Hi I am a Catholic and a fulltime student.
I need to find someone to help me answer some questions for an interview essay. The problem is I don't know anyone who dosen't believe in Jesus. You see I give my answers and then you give yours and I compare in the essay. So if any non-believer would be so kind to help me I would greatly appriciate it.
If you do believe in Jesus go ahead and post it might be intresting:)

Here is the first set of questions and my answer:
1. Do you practice religion?. Yes
If so, which one? Yes, Catholicism
a. Why or why not?
I practice Catholicism because I was raised Catholic and I believe what I was taught, for the most part

Thanks I never wished I lived in Mass. before

Ok how about now I put more in. Does that sound good?

I never know what to say about me....any suggestions

Some People play games guys and girls. Could it be how your Dad was. Like did he treat your mom like that. If so you need to step back and reevaluate wht youthink is attractive. Because you are attracted to something you may not be able to expplain in words but it is common with all the men you've dated. So step back regroup try to not be affraid to like a good guy. I mean maybe you think a good guy would not like you. I am sure you would be wrong
