No one really owes anyone anything. This is an every-man-for-himself, get-in-where-you-it-in world. So why any of us build bonds with anyone is irrational, I suppose. Maybe I was doing the right thing by being introverted, antisocial, self centered and only thinking about the moment. Maybe no...

It's easy for someone looking from the outside in on this matter, to say "Get over it." And if it was that simple, I would have gotten over it. I wouldn't even pursue someone who I thought there was no chance with. You don't know every word that was said or every gesture that was given, or every...

Robbie, you have a way with words. I always like your comebacks. lol ...even when it's me you're coming back at

To be fair to him, he didn't know (for sure) that I was homosexual when he told me he used to be... He said he was shring it because G-d had him to share it. He assumed I was a christian practicing a hidden sin, but he didn't know what it was. until he saw my reaction after he told me. He did...

Thank you for your insight. long or short, I can appreciate everything you have said. And I am taking these things into account. I know that it's easy for people to call me "selfish" and "self absorbed" because of this. That's all well and good. But I can't help how I feel about this man. I now...

I think that the longest fast I've ever been on is 1 day, and that's been so long ago, I don't remember if it was no water or food, or no food and only water. what I do remember is feeling like I was going to die-- nervous, jittery, shaking and almost unable to pick up the fork to eat. And that...

Thank you all for your advice. Though I can give him the benefit of the doubt about the amount of time we spent on the phone. He is a person who normally spends long periods of time on the phone talking to people . He told me how when he was younger, he used to get cursed out for running up his...

It's amazing to me how I can be around him now, for hours, and he doesn't even acknowledge my presence. I really am having a hard time believing that he could be so cruel--though not overtly... after all I have explained to him. Just what his silence is doing to me, I don't know if he...

I know that I will get a lot of flack for this. But I know I won't get much sleep tonight until I get this off my chest. I can't explain the situation detail for detail. But I posted a couple months ago about a christian brother who I had a crush on, in the "christian club." I got over him, to...

If there is anyone here who really knows how to pray, could I ask you to please sned a prayer up for my friend. His name is Jarell (sp?) Gary. He went on a job interview today. He doesn't know as of yet if he will be hired. So, could you pray that he gets favor. And yes, he is a believer, which...

I will try to narrow it down to one thing. But I'm not sure if I can. It's the issue of free will and predestination that I have the most trouble with. I don't understand why God "chooses" anyone. Why can't everyone be special? Why does God make some people more important than others? I've heard...

I appreciate all of the sincere feedback. And I am taking these things into account. But most of it is religious jargon to me. It makes no sense at all. And I simply cannot worship a God who requires that I sacrifies my brain (intelligence), in order to please him. Can you watch the people in...

I know that the classic justification for the existence of hell is that "Hell is man's choice, not G-d's choice." This sounds very religiously correct, indeed. But to me, rational it's just a cop-out. I don't believe that anyone in their right mind would choose to burn in hell for eternity. I...

But to me, there is nothing fun about people burning in hell and yelling and clawing to get out for all eternity, while G-d ignores them.

You would think that after thousands of years of seeking and searching for an omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient being, that He would have shown up by now. At least given us clues that He is real. But being raised a christian pentecostal myself, I have seen people yell, sweat, run, jump, foam...

So what if she asks why I chose to study with a woman instead of a man? Should I tell her the reason?

don't know if any of you here have ever heard of a man named G. Craig Lewis, but he is a well known black preacher who has produced many a controversial teaching - one of his most famous being "The Truth Behind Hip Hop," in which he breaks down the philosophy behind the hip hop and shows how it...

It's ok if you doubt my sincerity. That's your opinion. I know my intentions in the matter. Of course I can do it alone, but I wanted the encouragement more than anything. Thanks for your response.

Wow, this is going to be so embarrassing, and I hope he doesn't come to this forum, but I'm just venting right now, so you don't have to read this. I obviously am posting for people to read, but I know that people might get tired of me talking about this subject. I'm sorry if this seems...

THANK YOU
