    Another conversation with the person who sexually assualted me...

    It was a friend who hurt me...he was a close friend of my husband and myself and at first I thought I wasn't even angry with him. He's suffered for several years from small brain tumors and we (husband and I) took care of him after a surgery to remove one several months ago. I thought it was...

    I feel like such a freak. Warning, very disturbing and probably triggers...

    I can't tell you how relieved I am to know I'm not the only one feeling that way! I haven't said a word to my husband because I don't want him to think it was something I wanted or that I'm a freak now...we have a hard enough time limping along that we're not super active anymore. Every time...

    What is a flashback?

    Thinking about sex is a trigger for you...me too. Sometimes it's bad and can involve flashbacks and sometimes it's like double vision. I'll be thinking about my fiance (husband, really, since we were joined religiously two years ago) and then everything that happened is overlayed on the good...

    quantum physics: got any good links?

    I'm a chemist and I'm going to be doing graduate work in the field. A good book to start with (it's a textbook, so sue me :P ) is Atkin's Physical Chemistry http://bcs.whfreeman.com/pchem8e/default.asp?s=&n=&i=&v=&o=&ns=0&uid=0&rau=0

    Murder by prayer ?

    Whatever happened to the gods help those who help themselves? If medicine and technology was never meant to be used by man then wouldn't the Bible have said something to that effect? These parents were just mind-bogglingly stupid--their actions are tantamount to saying "We don't have to be...

    Polyamory

    To say that there is no exclusivity in a polyamorous relationship is not strictly true--individuals in such a relationship are faithful to each other. Depending on the ground rules set out by the partners it may be that folks are able to pursue others outside the immediate relationship, or--as...

    "We're Not Out To Hurt Anybody."

    Too many flames and the thread gets shut down. One is tasteless and I would think that others would know better than to post more gibberish. You're quite right about the first post being non-constructive, but one can hardly go nuts after every flame and you had the misfortune of continuing a...

    "We're Not Out To Hurt Anybody."

    Watch the flames, people. That was not exactly constructive.

    Abortion is idolitary.

    Fear is not an idol, nobody worships it and nobody wants it. Women do not have abortions to There are very real reasons why women feel compelled to give up a baby--if the child will come into a home where it is hated, resented, abused, or will suffer thoughout its life because of the...

    "We're Not Out To Hurt Anybody."

    Another important point to make is that modern Paganism is just that--MODERN. The movement is called neo-Paganism because it is a modern interpretation and modification/recreation of some of the centuries-old practices without transplanting all aspects part and partial. The best example I...

    Responsible Sex Would Cut Down On Abortions

    Rotflmao, no, Mling, she did EXACTLY what you're hoping she didn't do with it. Edit--Though...I have to wonder what would have happened if her boyfriend...um..."bumped" into it. That would be effective BC, I guess, lol.

    Why do most other believers seem to hate OECs so much?

    Better known as "faith" :)

    Is money the root of all evil?

    I think it is avaricious love of goods/money that casues problems. I simply love being surrounded by soft pillows, blankets, hot tea and a multitude of books, but when I have money (or any of the above) I don't hesitate to share with others or make donations to food pantries or the like...

    Abortion is idolitary.

    Unless you're a man or you've had your reproductive organs removed/altered to entirely prevent pregnancy, there is always a chance of getting pregnant--no matter how careful you are. Even IUD's have a 1% fail rate. If you were married but made just enough money to keep an apartment, but...

    Why do most other believers seem to hate OECs so much?

    Exactly--but they accept it because of the evidence. I am differentiating between belief--which requires some degree of evidence--and faith, as in blind faith that is unsupported by anything other than "I said so." @Molal--That is definitely a neat site to visit. My project is more chemical...
