2008-04-02 17:27:40 on Thanks to help.com and many friends and nice people on here, I have been feeling a lot more happier in myself and more self understanding.
Your such a sweet person, I can’t imagine you anything but happy. I’m glad your feeling good. :)
2008-04-02 06:48:23 on How to be a Christian on Help.com.
My two cents worth. I would like to both condemn and defend some of what has been said here. First - condemnation, there is a simple test of true Christianity, if the love of Christ is not in someone, they are not Christians. Many people define themselves as christians and the fact is they are not. I have seen very hateful comments by “christians”, and those comments are CLEAR indication that they are not really christian at all. I would ask those of us who claim the name “christian” take the time to truly study Christ’s example, how He interacted with others, the respect He always showed others including those who did not treat Him with respect, and before you say anything, either here or anywhere else, decide if Jesus would say something like that. Second - defense, even a dog defends his master when he is attacked. I would ask those who are not christians, realise that those of us who are christians, see God as our father and we simply want Him treated with respect and when He is ridiculed in most cases it is a knee-jerk response when we try to defend our beliefs.
Thanks Fizz, good post.

Ha Ha, I love it. I hate cats, but I love that expression. LOL
2008-03-26 14:52:50 on knowledge is power within our world either it be book smart or street smart it harbors great strength
How does that expression go? “Fools go where wise men fear to tread” That is the way we are today, people have no fear of “going” anywhere, we broach any subject, we have no respect for ourselves much less each other, there is no such thing as the sanctity of human life, we murder babies in the womb and try to decide if the elderly or mentally handicaped person has the right to life based on their societal value. We look down on others because they do not live up to our standards, and label them inferior. We have fallen far from our intended place as Gods highest creation. Sorry, I’ll come down off of my soap box now.
2008-03-26 14:37:51 on I really do not know what to do, my brother has put my parents in debt and they don’t realize that they are losing there home soon.
My prayers are with you. Do not underestimate what God has in store for your parents, it is in the most difficult times that God works the greatest miracles. Do all you can, Silverwings gave you some great websites, but do not loose faith that God is in control.

2008-03-26 09:23:21 on Is the Bible wrong?
I have to go for now
2008-03-26 09:21:22 on Is the Bible wrong?
If you want my opinion, the Bible is correct as written. Anything that we consider “wrong” is most likely because we understand it incorrectly. For example “science” once said absolutly that the world was flat, but the bible made reference to the world being round. The problem was not that the Bible was wrong we just needed to catch up.
2008-03-26 09:04:23 on Is the Bible wrong?
Why are you Anon? I’m willing to offer help if that is actually what you want, but if this is just a way to start an argument, you are waisting both of our times.

[quote Anonymous]If you research the arguments against it, it is just overwhelming[/quote]
What arguments are you talking about?
2008-03-26 06:00:41 on Why we think you deserve to be a mod?
I vote for This-Fire.
(I can’t imagine why anyone would argue over being a Mod. It seems like more trouble than it’s worth to me.)
2008-03-26 05:20:51 on Have you seen or had experiences of anti-gay sentiments on help.com?
I am not pointing the finger at anyone but it does “seem” sometimes that some rules are pushed harder than others. Specifically name calling seems to be ignored on a regular basis. I have not participated in any “gay” specific posts but I have read several times where religous people have been told how stupid they are, and worse. But I think that would probably depend on the Mod. If he/she agrees with that opinion, he/she probably will be slow to take corrective actions. I personally have not had to deal with any real abuse, but I would like to think when it does happen it would be delt with.
2008-03-25 14:34:14 on Let’s make a HAPPY post!
When my wife touches me. Nothing sexual, just touches me, I get an almost electrical shock. After several years of marriage nothing makes me happier than when we are close. =D

Try googling “How things work”. They have lots of good info.
2008-03-25 06:56:30 on Hi I have a friend who is ethias and I want to know how do I let her know that god is out there an love her no matter what.
The best way to “tell” someone about God is to show them God in you. You cannot “preach” to someone about love if you do not have love in your life, you cannot tell someone how to make money if you are always broke. The best way to teach about anything is through example. If you know God then demonstrate that knowledge through you everyday actions, if she see’s something she wants, she’ll be open to the “preaching”.
