Hi. I was very active on this forum for a long time, but left a while ago, not for any particular reason, just busy with other things and forgot to login for a while, and never came back. I used to be a very devout born again Christian, but I lost my faith and now am not sure I believe in God...

I have to admit, I always had mixed feelings about whether abortion should be legal. I mean, I don't believe in it. I'd never have one. But I was unsure about whether other people should be allowed to. Now, I have to say, I recently stumbled across this article. I was pretty shaken up when...

I wanted to post and ask for some advice, but I can't really reply or have a major dialog because I have tendonitis and the doctor said not to type. It really really hurts. However, what I am dealing with is bothering me so much I wanted to talk about it and I'll read your replies. I suffer...

I am really curious to hear what people say about this scenario. Please answer honestly. I am really curious to read the answers of Born Again Christians in particular. Here is the question: You are hired by a high school to debate an atheist. This atheist is a well known speaker. She...

Hi. It's me, Greywolf. I was in the hospital, but I'm back now. Feeling better too, as my meds were adjusted and things are looking up a bit. I just wanted to check in, but I'll write more later with more details of how the hospital went and such. One thing I brought back from the hospital...

I'm ok

First of all, I want to apologize for only coming here when I'm struggling. Please forgive me for not giving as much support as I ask for. Truth is, I was really bitter at Christians for a very long time, given that I had such a bad experience with the last church I was in. Well, do to some...

Hi. First of all, I'd like to apologize to everyone for not being around. I haven't been online much, and was spending a lot of time in bed. Then some serious stuff started happening. First off, I may have diabetes. I had the test on Thursday and haven't heard back yet. I don't know what...

Hey! I'm a 33 year old single woman who is looking for one or more female pen pals to write to. I am not a Christian, but I would like to talk to Christians. I sometimes ask hard questions about faith and about the Christian church. I mean, I try never to bash anything, but I may want to...

Hey everybody. I am back from Maine, and have been since last week. Maine was really nice. We saw some beautiful sights in Acadia National park, went shopping and ate lobster, even saw a wild lobster scuttling around in the bay, which was kind of funny. I haven't written because my computer...

Hi. I am starting to think maybe Jesus is real and does love me after all. To know what I've been through, please read my thread "hurt" then you will know where I'm coming from. The thing is, I think God saved me from suicide yesterday. I had decided to do it, after a huge and terrible fight...

Hey guys. It's really hard to write this. I am in so much pain right now. I had a huge fight with my parents. They seemed to confirm everything I feared- that I am a burden to them, a strain on their marriage, that I hurt their health. The things they said to me cut me to the core. This was...

I promised that if I was having a problem again I'd come back and post so I am. I am supposed to see my counselor tomorrow. I needed to talk to her about my near-suicide and I really was holding on hoping to see her. Well, my van driver, who I was trying to contact for two days, told me he...

Hey guys. I know my last message was very positive, so I hope I don't disappoint any one by this message. I am feeling better than I was, but I still need support. I know, in my mind, that this will pass, and that i want to live. But my emotions are so strong, my mind is telling me to to...

First of all, Thank you for your prayers. I feel they were answered. I managed to get to my doctor. The van driver called at the last minute- he did get my message, he just said he was too 'busy' to call back (Ah, does he know how much ogeda he caused me! Oh well) I had a GREAT appointment...

In Norse mythology, the god Odin was attended by ravens. His horse was the gallows. ------------------------------------------------------------- Riding Odin's Horse Night with salty shadows tears burn, clotted behind my eyes. The pretty porcelin doll facade cracked broken It calls...

They censored my last post, so I'm going to try and word this differently. Maybe this one will get through. I guess pray for me...I'm not sure I believe in God, but if he exists, I guess now would be a good time for him to help me. I really hope this post gets through because I am at the end...

When I hit my depressions, I often feel like hurting myself. Thoughts of suicide become hard to fight at times. (my other thread is pretty much all about this) Since self-harming thinking is common for bipolars (I remember a stat that said that over 1/2 of bipolars seriously contemplate or...
