    Reason for Divorce?

    You bring up some good points, but when I checked out several other translations of the verse at Studylight.org (a great bible study site, by the way), and almost all of the other translations translated the word that is 'unfaithfulness' above more specifically as 'adultery', 'fornication,'...

    I don't want to get a divorce!!

    Lovenourishes: I see that you have already made your decision, but I'd like to ask a question that may change the color of the discussion--When you got married, who chose the church you are now attending. I don't know why, but I'm thinking that perhaps the real issue isn't actually tithing...

    Any Triathletes, Cyclists or Runner's here?

    Hey, I just wanted everybody to know that I registered for my first duothlon. Late April, because there aren't any triathlons in my area until June.

    Reason for Divorce?

    But doesn't the fact that they had to be forgiven naturally imply that their actions were sins to begin with?

    Reason for Divorce?

    Okay, I see what everybody is saying, but does anyone have any biblical evidence? I agree completely that a battered or otherwise abused spouse should definitely get out of a bad situation, but does that justify divorce, or should it be handled differently. Every time I hear about a divorce...

    Reason for Divorce?

    I'm still relatively new, but I've been surfing these boards for a number of weeks now. I've read the horror stories in this forum about how one spouse is mistreating another, and the advice given is sometimes to get out of the relationship. My church believes (and this is a belief that I held...

    I'm Tempted...

    I know I've done this exact thing at least once here on CF, and later discovered that my ranting elicited much more... dramatic response than I expected. I think the issue--with myself, at least--is one of anonymity. Although I have a good group of guys I can discuss things with, I can't...

    Scared?

    Gikkita, you know you're in a perfect place to help you with a situation like this, right? If you have a journal here, then all you have to do is post your writing in there. Nobody can post in your thread except you, and the only way anyone can comment on something you wrote is to PM you...

    So guys...Are you grossed out by feminine stuff/parts or comfortable with it?

    I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that all bodily fluids are gross: blood, sweat, urin, bile, sweat. All gross. I'm not grossed out by the concept of my wife's period, as long as I don't have to see used accessories floating in the toilet when she's done with them. You cannot convince...

    Alien vs. Predator

    I don't know about the novels, but the concept of AVP was taken from a series of mini-series published by Dark Horse comics in the 90s. I haven't seen the movie, nor have I read any of the comics, but I hear they're pretty good. I'll check out the DVD when it's released, though. Oh, for...

    What's Wrong with my Wife?

    Oh, yeah. Outside of this, really strong Christians, I think. You wouldn't believe the level we're involved with our church (I'm not a pastor or an elder, but we're up there). And, generally, when we talk, I think we're pretty good at communicating. That is, when I look around her need to know...

    Fanfic?

    There are several sites out there where you can post your stories. Just enter 'fan fiction' or 'fanfic' into Google to get started. And, back in the day (that would be WAAY back in the mid-1990s), the place where I first heard about fanfic were the usenet groups alt.startrek.fic and...
