Why is the first bible commandment "You will have no other Gods BEFORE me." I thought Christians had one God and one God ONLY. I think, and this is probably the case, that it was worded that way as a way of converting others. "See, praise OUR God first and you can still praise whatever other Gods you want to." I especially see it this way as it wasn't until later, when they had nearly complete control over large areas, that they started persecuting other religions (including off-shoot branches of their own).

Now, whatever you did (whether it was to humor her or try to "cure" her) she's now nearly 18 and has no interest in going to school or getting a job as her friend is now her boyfriend and has promised to supply everything she needs. And, she has, over the internet, or however, found a few million others that believe exactly the same thing and her faith in her boyfriend is absolute. Now what do you do?
