So I'm new here and look forward to meeting some people who can give me guidance on what to do since I don't consider myself a christian because I have led a selfish life. And I am 15. So hi, look forward to seeing people!

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Hi Patrick! 
welcome to the site!
i understand where you are coming from about having led a selfish life,I think it's something nearly everyone struggles with.You definitely aren't alone.it's human nature (sin nature,I guess I should say)to put ourselves first,
unfortunately. I think you will find a lot of great advice here,I know I have.
but just remember,we are saved by God's love because He is amazing,
it's not because of anything we have done. God loves you! by praying and reading my bible,I feel like I've overcome a lot of things I used to struggle with just by drawing close to God,so that's what I would advise you to do too,pray all the time,and seek out God,he will help you. hang in there brother!

Hello
Welcome to Christian Forums!
I would also recommend that you check out the Blessings Exchange. This board allows you to play games and participate in fellowship threads to earn extra blessings, the site's currency. You can use your blessings for such things as purchasing items for your Living Avatar or creating a Pet.
The simplest way to earn blessings is by posting. You may earn anywhere from 5-10 blessings per post depending on post size. You may also get a Job here at Christian Forums to earn extra blessings. All you are required to do is post and collect your salary every week! The more you post, the more blessings you earn. You must have at least 100 posts to select a job. After you start earning blessings, you can deposit those blessings in a savings account at the Christian Forums Bank. By depositing your blessings in a savings account, you are able to collect a 1% interest on those savings each week! I do advise you to only deposit blessings once per week since the timer resets each time you deposit or withdraw blessings.
If you have any questions please feel free to send me a message!!

I've got a question. I've got a problem - on my Youtube account (which is the same as my screenname) I share the account with my brother, who's 14. Well a few days ago he started uploading videos that I would not have uploaded - not so christian images. So I've questioned him about it and he says he's allowed to do whatever he wants on my account since I let him use it. What should I do? I also want him to stop because I think it might ruin my reputation on Youtube. Please help!

Hello, Welcome again to CF. As for your question, it might be best if you were to remove the videos and change your password, so only you have access. He is not going to like it, but it’s not really fair to you if he is not respecting some basic rules that you have set down after you have given him your trust. I hope that this sugestion is helpfull.
God bless you and keep you.
