    Happy Birthday to our Members!!!

    Yes, it can be. My daughter is six...I rarely have to spank her...I think the last time was a few months ago. I only spank if she is openly defiant or disobediant...and I do give her a warning first...something like "you need to obey me now" in a very firm voice. Though some things do not...

    Happy Birthday to our Members!!!

    When I was on the pill, I didn't have any problems with mood swings or weight gain...in fact, my moods were less eratic while on the pill. I HATE having an internal exam...it is unpleasant...but it sounds like what you are going through is pretty unpleasant, too...and well worth going...

    This infuriates me...

    Catholics are not the only ones to only allow communion for members in good standing.

    I am losing it...

    sometimes it takes a while for the meds to kick in...prozac takes about two weeks before it starts making a difference... Also, sometimes you have to try more than one to find the one that works best for you. So don't give up. Medication won't make your problems go away, but it can take...

    I am losing it...

    Sounds like you are having a panic attack...I get them sometimes, and it is exactly like you describe. Mine usually do not last long...an hour or two, and do not come often...so I just try to tough it out. But when I got them more frequently, I did go on medication for a while, and it...

    Mononoke Hime(Princess Mononoke) Club

    I haven't seen Spirited Away yet. But Princess Mononoke is definitely one of the best anime movies I have seen.

    We Choose God?

    that is quite a generalization... Basically, you are saying that I am not a calvinist because of my pride...don't you think that is a bit of a leap?

    His Needs, Her Needs

    While I agree that some of these needs might indeed be dictated by culture or circumstance (particuarly the financial/domestic needs) I believe things are a lot more inate than we might imagine. When my daughter was born, I avoided dressing her in pink and I also made sure that she had a...

    His Needs, Her Needs

      I disagree. Think of it this way...I am a woman...the things that I want and need are different from that of a man...conversation and affection are pretty important to me (just to take some examples from the list).  So, since that is what I really like, then, because I truly...

    Pre-marital Counseling

    I did...and now I am divorced... despite that, I would still recommend it.

    I Love Being Catholic

    That's kinda what I think. It makes no sense that it wasn't real wine. It seems that it is the groups that believe that any alcohol consumption, even in moderation, is sinful...if that were true, and Jesus drank real wine, well, then He would be sinning...and we know that cannot be true...so...

    I Love Being Catholic

    hmmm...seems to me that if Christ is able to preform the miracle of changing the bread and wine into His actual Body and Blood, then He is equally able to cause the sacrament to retain the appearance and taste of bread and wine. So the fact that the bread and wine does indeed retain...

    I Love Being Catholic

    Thanks :) How do you answer the common arguement among many protestant groups that Jesus didn't actually drink wine, that it was really grape juice...that the greek word translated wine in the New Testament was used for unfermented grape juice...I hear this arguement a lot.

    um...still waiting for an answer about the grape juice question... *feels ignored*
