Question
Hi I'm Todd.  I just have one question...

- I lied to my dad so that he wouldn't get mad at me because he has an anger problem. A a Christian would I have to admit that I lied?  I was on my computer on facebook and my dad doesn't want me to have a facebook so I turned it off and then he asked what I was doing and I told him I was puttin my iPod away. But if he found out he would get really mad.  He really hurts my feelings when he's mad.

Answer
I'm going to give you advice but only you know what you should do. It is wrong to lie, it's breaking a commandment. But I also understand where you are coming from. Could you possibly talk to your dad about having a facebook account? Just think about is really important here. He is your dad.

I can answer things that have to do with any sort of question about religion. I am a Mormon and I have been through my entire life so if you ask me questions about that religion I can give you facts and I might be able to explain things a little better than people that aren't of that faith. If you have a question on whether or not something is okay to do I can look at it through my "Mormon eyes" or if you would like me to I can just look at it on a plain religious level. I will do my best to anwer your question. Please include you age with your question.

Experience

I have been a youth leader in my church since I was twelve. My neighborhood is very religious so I have gained knowledge from them as well.
