    23 and no career. No college. Feeling helpless =/

    I'm shocked that they would call that "borderline retarded" in fact I'm shocked they would even use the term "retarded" in this day and age.Anyways, it sounds like you have something like dyscalculia, which is almost like the "numbers" version of dyslexia(which is mainly to do with words)...

    Second Marriage - Blending families concern

    I've just read through some more of the posts and I just wanted to applaud Jham and the others who have shown such compassion to and empathy with, the innocent parties in this situation, who are the children. Children are so vulnerable and delicate, particularly in their teenage years. To...

    Second Marriage - Blending families concern

    Jham thank you for your honesty, directness and shrewdness. :clap: I am the adult child of divorced parents. My father remarried when I was around 13 years old, and yes I agree that parents who choose to remarry should wait until their children are 18 or older to do so if at all. I am...

    He left me b/c of my past

    You had a lucky escape, imagine if you had married him, he would have kept bringing it up and hanging it over your head, the wedding night would be awkward to say the least. It's his loss, hold your head up high and be thankful that you are loved unconditionally by the only One who can.

    Let's gush. Just because I need to share. And I want you to share. Then we can frolic

    :DHealthy eating is good though, we all have free will so yes we can eat what we want but doesn't make it right..in the same way as smoking is bad and is not showing respect to our bodies the temple of God, consistently eating unhealthy can be similarly disrespectful too. I wish America..and...

    Supreme Court says Death Penalty Unconstitutional in Child Rape Cases

    Many countries in the EU abolished the death penalty well before they became part of the EU. I have never heard any country in Europe talk about how the reason for this was because of being in the EU. It is just considered quite vile and barbaric by most Europeans,! Myself included!I think...

    how far is too far?

    There is much debate in christian circles what constitutes a virgin..I veer away from such talk my concern is not whether I have remained a 'virgin;' definitions vary and I think chastity is more than that,it is about what goes on in the mind. Some people may never have touched another but they...

    Death Penalty

    I also agree with Judy I think she has pretty much articulated my sentiments against the death penalty except I am 100% against it. Interesting that America is the only western democracy(as far as I know)that permits it. It scares the heck out of me that ' christians' would kill someone who is...

    If you had to spend one year a country that is not your own which would it be?

    I think its great so many people would like to spend a year in lands far away from their native country and with very different cultures..whilst living in the states I found it hard to comprehend that many people never envisaged travelling any further than Canada, which to be fair is relatively...
