    Need help from a non-Christian.

    Hey all, I have an interview that I need to do for one of my classes, and I was wondering if anyone would be willing to take the time to share some information about their religion (or agnosticism or atheism). There is one page of questions (triple spaced) and I think it would take about a...

    Reality TV 'Sister Wives' to challenge Utah anti-polygamy law

    I think that no one should be rich, and the government should take rich peoples' money until they're poor and give it to itself so that government employees can be rich. And the government should also give money to households like this so that the man doesn't have to work and can be a stay at...

    McConnell: no real deficit deal until Obama is gone

    Good. Hopefully they won't raise the debt ceiling then since it's all a joke. Bush was an idiot for raising the debt ceiling and starting those wars. Obama is an idiot and a socialist. The only good thing that will happen is if no one passes anything, the US defaults, everyone loses...

    I just wanted to share why I became a Calvinist (Feel free to share!)

    I grew up a marginal Calvinist, pondered these things during my High School years (thinking it must be both God's predestination and free will, however that worked out...) and upon being exposed to the like of Mark Driscoll and John Piper, I explored Calvinism more, and now I would align myself...

    Is It Just Me Or Does It Seem Like Most Churches Are Behind The Times???

    I think that the problem is that we have become so focused on pleasing people that we forget the whole point. WORSHIP IS MEANT TO GLORIFY GOD. Whether that be musical worship, service, whatever, it is to be offered up to God to ascribe glory to His name, NOT to make us have a spiritual...

    Is It Just Me Or Does It Seem Like Most Churches Are Behind The Times???

    I'm a singer, and either way the music can be distracting because I tend to focus on my performance of singing rather than the lyrics, contemporary or traditional, when either way I shouldn't care about the music nearly as much as I care about the TEXT. It's the words that matter, and I find...

    I suppose you're right. Pardon my naive post.

    If you were married would you like it if someone romantically kissed your spouse?

    But you're not 100% sure of that until you're married... I don't see how it makes the argument completely invalid.

    Don't Settle

    I agree with you, definitely. God wants the best for us, someone who will help us along in our faith and who we in turn can help in their faith. God has a beautiful harmonious husband or wife in mind for each of us - we've gotta be patient and wait for Him to send him or her to us.

    Guys, I need your input on this please :)

    Yes. For me, expressions of friendship are hugs... and, um... that's really about all I can think of. The arm around / sitting on would tend to suggest more than friendship for me... I wouldn't have that unless we were dating.

    Guys, when do you find a girl most attractive?

    When I can tell that she loves Jesus, and when I can fellowship with her. I'm not kidding, I really do find that one of the most attractive things in a girl.

    Why can't I seem to break free of this???

    That's really tough. I'm sorry. I haven't ever dated because I'm trying to wait for the woman God wants me to marry, but I have a cousin who was dating a guy for two years - and then he started treating her poorly and eventually they broke up. It was such a hard thing for her, and it happened...
