  1. I think pictures are no big deal even if they could be less numerous, but it makes me ill at ease when I read all these statements about the guy-is he handsome or not, etc. I mean, this is not a private place, and I wouldn't like people to talk about my boyfriend's appearance in this way. And we don't have much to say about her relationships anyway, except for "I'm glad for her" and all that stuff. But it's true that her hair is quite perfect he he !

  2. Are we sure that Emma is to play Beauty ? I didn't hear about that yet... I thought it was rumors. If it's definitive, then it's great :D

     

    I don't know who I would chose... Maybe Johnny Depp ! He's very good and he knows how to deal with costumes, he knows how to express a nature far from his character's appearence. I'm thinking of Edward Scissorhands in particular...

  3. I confess, dear sarahelizabeth, that I'm obsessed by my weight and that it makes me unhappy even when I lose some... (Take care of your body but don't mistreat it)

  4. I love yout signature too :) and the Weasleys wallpaper is just... I was not fond of both Ginny and Bonnie (actually it may be linked :P) but I've learned to enjoy her (them), and I love the three of them together :)

     

    The more I look at the signature you made for me, the more I adore it !!

  5. Don't confuse the Bible with God. If you read the Old Testament, of course you'll find verses that may no sound "good" to you. I, for once, do not accept the Old testament and i am a Christian. I accept the New. Read the New Testament and if you find a verse you dont like and makes you feel bad about God or something then i'll talk about it with you

     

    And I forgot to answer to this but the thing is, I've talked with evangelist protestants, and I was told that each word of the Bible was a word of God, etc. Now I know that not everybody share this belief but as it is the first thing I heard, and from people I do respect, it is hard to decide who is right. And I ask these questions when I pray, but how to get an answer ?

  6. Thanks a lot for answering me :)

     

    I know that I am the only one who can do something about finding God. I just need some people to care about my relationship with Him, I reckon, to approve and respect it, maybe. And your advices are all interesting, and I like talking about religion with believers. I love the Old testament, but to me it's more like stories, and it's not very modern in some ways (but of course I am not speaking of the main messages, only of details). But yes, I believe Psalms are very helpful, and beautiful too.

     

    Arie, I am glad to be able to talk with a Jewish, because I'm interested in all religions, and I personally believe that God uses different paths to reach different people... Maybe that's why I feel uncomfortable with Christians, sometimes : I can't say "My religion is the best, the truest one". I mean, it implies that the others are lying to you or to theirselves when they chose another religion, because if there is a "best" religion, then you're not really close to God when you go for another. I don't know if I'm being very clear...

  7. if someone votes for Twilight I'll laugh ! pretty good were released last year, but Harry Potter is the one who made my cry and smile most :) In France we had "Intouchables", which will be shot in the US in 2012 or 2013. It's a wonderful movie, but I'm concerned about the adaptation...

  8. Hi everyone !

     

    Here's the thing : I met God 3 years ago, thanks to a Christian friend. I was depressed and she brought me to a christian meeting, and I just wanted to learn about her religion because I knew it was the most important thing in her life. And then, I was listening to people singing, it was so beautiful, I suddenly felt so calm and happy, I started to cry... When my friend saw that she was so glad, because she thought I had met her God, but the point is, I knew I had experienced something really greater than me, but didn't know what exactly. SHe convinced me it was Jesus and, as I was already reading the Bible, I kept on doing it, and went to her home and her church to study it, to learn more about God.

     

    But then, I had a hard time because my education is far from some biblic principles, for instance I strongly believe that women and men are equal and some verses don't express that at all. Plus I have some gay friends, I see them happy, and I wonder why I should disapprove this while they find a way to live their lives in a way that please them. Actually, I have beliefs but can't really generalize them. I feel I shouldn't judge others on their choices (of course I am against some behaviors, but only when they bully some people).

     

    The second thing is that my family is not religious at all, and I can't share my beliefs with anybody. I have a boyfriend too, and he has a kind of faith but not really believe in God, more in a supernatural power.

     

    So here's my issue : I don't know if I am a believer anymore, if I can trust everything in the Bible, if I am allowed to interpret some verses, being aware of the fact that I may interpret them in order to make things easier for me. I add that I don't go to church anymore, because I don't know which religion is the closest to my beliefs, and I don't know anybody in my town who could help me with that.

     

    Sorry for the long story but my life is getting harder and harder without the light I had before... I want to find the way of life which will allow me to be a better myself and I have to say I need help. Thanks for reading/answering (of course don't feel like you have to be a christian to answer, any point of view is likely to help me).

  9. what do you think about her Facebook and Twitter ? I'm surprised because I reckon most stars have to deal with their publicist, agent, and all when they communicate, especially on the Internet. But Emma seems to handle it by herself, which is great because it's very her, according to what I know about her. However as she is often busy, we sometimes stay weeks or months without any updates... Even her website would need some, because some parts are so old ! It's beautiful and simple, though.
