    it is a sin to add to your natural appearance? really? where did God say so?

    Oh goodness are they all living in the Old Testament? I certainly hope that’s not true, because if it Is, everyone at every church I’ve ever been to is “doomed”. No matter how much they follow Jesus in life. I have never known a Christian who did not have a nice outfit, some jewelry, a...

    How are you MENTALLY escaping all the COVID-crazy?

    I could use some advice, some ideas, some pointers... I am prone to generalized anxiety and depression which I fight via naturapathic means like herbal supplements as opposed to xanax.

    Divine intervention found withim a scary story?

    I listen to these scary stories on youtube. I know, I know. Probably not great for my mental or spiritual health. They are addictive. It’s probably something to have a one-on-one with God about. There are several youtubers who do this... they have regular people submit their creepy stories and...

    I hate to say this but...

    Well, is she lazy or is she depressed? Normally ignoring filth and not caring to keep a person's surroundings clean is a sign of depression. Maybe have her look into that, get treated if need be. Also this is going to be an unpopular opinion probably but... time to find the dog another home...

    Should you leave a partner over weight gain/old age

    No because that's not what marriage is about. Dating maybe... you can break up for various reasons. But marriage you stick by that person. For better or for worse. By the logic you stated, if it's OK to divorce someone for being fat and saggy, it's OK to divorce them because they aren't fun or...

    LGBT ‘Pride’ Masses taking over multiple Catholic dioceses in England

    So, the pastor at my church brought this up on Sunday. The message was about “being in the world but not OF the world”. And he brought up the story of David not willing to worship king Nebukkednazzar’s (sp?) giant golden statue instead of God... then he says “and what “statue” is the world...

    Pray for my husband's faith

    For nearly two years now, my husband's relationship with God or desire for one has been about as reliable as my phone signal when I'm driving home from work, down that long coastal road in the middle of nowhere. "Where did it go?" "Oh! there it is... ugh it's cutting out again!?" "Hello? I can't...

It’s a good way to network. Though many don’t allow self-promotion. However, there are bound to be Christian groups on there...

    Feeling sad because I want a family but it seems impossible

    Baby steps. Start with making a female friend. Then if there’s a connection, go from there and see if it can be romantic. It’s good that you know you want a family, but I wouldn’t bring that up right away. It’s too much pressure for a new relationship. Just focus on befriending and then asking...

    Why does God only create things that can be explained by natural processes?

    Because that’s the whole point of faith. To believe even though there’s not some clear evidence that everyone else understands.

    How to deal with two major uncertainties in the future?

    He's actually kind of having a personal crisis of faith right now, but came from Christian roots and was a practicing Christian when I married him, so that's another thing I'm working on with him. Hoping he will reignite his faith before all this goes down.
