    Request about my sister

    Well, we are now talking. My sister is still set on marrying this man next week Saturday. My mother and I don't like it, but we know there is nothing we can do about it besides pray about the situation. My mother has still never met this man and I have only talked to him for a few minutes.

    WHEN do we stop with the Santa lie?

    The main problem I have with Santa is that most kids don't believe in Santa for long these days. Kids can get made fun of if they believe in Santa longer than most of their peers.

    Request about my sister

    My sister has been seeing a guy for the past 9 months. He is an atheist, has schizophrenia, lives with his mother, and doesn't have a good job. He was arrested for DUI 3 years ago. He supposedly treats my sister well though. My sister is dead-set on marrying this guy. She is afraid of men, has...

    LDS Did Joseph Smith and the 1830 BOM plagairize the 1823 book "View of the Hebrews"?

    That is interesting. It does look like he did plagiarize from that earlier book. I didn't know how common the belief that Native Americans were related the Jewish peoples. I have some Native American blood and I have been asked if I am part Asian. Even while living in Asia for a few years, there...

    The morning word: John 8:31-32--we are free indeed

    Thank you! I like the illustration you posted. It is interesting how Al Capone seemed like such a nice guy. John Dillinger had a female hostage in his car once, and he got angry at his men for cussing near her. She was later set free, unharmed. Ted Bundy was also a "nice guy" as well. It is very...

    Looking for a new Denomination

    I was raised in the Seventh-day Adventist Church. I don't agree with all their theology anymore. I was raised heavily in its culture. I am still caught up in it. I still eat vegetarian. I find it difficult to navigate normal culture outside the SDA church. I am trying to find a new church, but...

    (poll) Do you think pets go to heaven?

    Salem looks like my Onyx who was hit by a car on Halloween 2012. It was just two days after my aunt's birthday, yet she died in September. That cat was my aunt's favorite.

    (poll) Do you think pets go to heaven?

    I have asked God to bring ALL of my pets to Heaven. I don't know if all of them will live with me, but I do want them all to live for eternity. Maybe some will live on another planet. Hopefully they will all be restored.

    Making Friends As An Adult

    It is hard for us women who don't have kids. I am 35 and have no children, and nearly all the women around me have kids. I feel that I don't relate to them.

    ***URGENT MESSAGE FOR GOD'S PEOPLE!!!!!***

    I am wondering what will happen next. I am sure that at the Time of the End, there will be NO atheists. There will be more supernatural things happening, so that everyone will believe in God.

    Andrews shuts down bake sale for LGBT homeless

    I am with Andrews on this one. I am glad they didn't want to support an organization that thinks being gay is OK. Andrews did want to help out the LGBT homeless youth, just not in the way that a student Eliel Cruz wanted. AU suggested that they support a different organization that works to...

    Andrews shuts down bake sale for LGBT homeless

    Andrews University students put on a bake sale to benefit Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender homeless youth. The bake sale was shut down by the university. Now some Facebook friends I have (whom I attended Andrews with) think AU was being unreasonable. One friend said she is ashamed she...

    Truth For All Ages

    It is true that so many SDAs have made too much of a big deal about the Law. That is why so many people have left the church. That is why so many Christians out there won't have anything to do with SDA. There has been too much legalism.

    Are the foundations crumbling?

    It isn't good to have a Sunday service, unless it is at a camp/retreat. We do need to be separate from the world, and keep showing it.

    Truth about Valentines day

    It is Papist. While the sun was setting I went downtown to the Fire and Ice Festival and looked at the ice sculptures. A shop was giving out free cookies and spiced cider. I had a nice chat with the owners and workers there. I later spent time listening to the music that was coming out of...

    Evangelical Covenant Church

    Ok. I want a church that is into scripture. I don't want brainless repetitive praise songs. I don't want a church that thinks homosexuality is ok. I also want a church that supports having strong families.
