I have read the Bible, I have studied Philosophy, Science, History, languages, prayed , and the more I use my critical thinking skills the more I get doubts , I am very skeptical about organized religions especially 2 of them, I have many doubts about the Bible or Qur'an for that matter . How can you NOT have any doubts about what you believe in with so many religions and beliefs? it is just a mess.How did you get that faith that is telling you the religion you are following is the right religion? do not tell me to pray, because I do that, do not tell me to read the bible, because I did do all that and it is not working for me and obviously if there was JUST ONE WAY TO REACH OUT TO GOD there would NOT be so many religions in the world, and do not tell me that Satan is confusing people.For those who believe such a thing how can you be so certain he is not deceiving you instead of the others? How do you have that certainty about it? I see many verses of the bible that contradict one another, God appears in many verses as a spiteful God, while I want to keep the idea of a GOOD GOD, and I should follow just what is good, and reject what brings fear and violence. I went to SO MANY DIFFERENT Churches Catholic,Baptist, , Mormon, Jehovah Witnesses just to name a few , and the list goes on and on...I saw so much hypocrisy, mostly people following this or that religion no because OF LOVE, the message that I would think God wants for us to have, but because of FEAR , or because they want a reward from GOD.
I still believe there is a God, something that has created us, an intelligent designer, but as far as what he really wants from us I really cannot understand based on what a few religions say. Why should I be punished according to some religions if in all my heart I have been trying to reach out to God, but I do not feel in my heart that I should cling onto any religion?
I cannot force myself to believe this or that religion, and the more I think and the more I follow my heart I get convinced that LOVE is just all I need.
PEACE.

I have been wearing glasses for 4 years and every year I have had to go for an eye exam to increase the strength of my prescription. I am 24 and my prescription is now -4.00 and I sense its time for stronger lenses soon. My first prescription was -1.75, a second prescription was -2.50, then -3.25 and now -4.00. I am fine with wearing glasses, its just my concern about my loss of clear vision and total dependency on corrective lenses. It seems surreal that at 18 I could see fine and now I need to have fairly strong glasses on to see across the room. Has anyone else had this happen to them and when do the changes usually stop?

I read on an internet survey that most women say if they plan on drinking heavy it's most likely going to be in the afternoon and on a Sunday especially. Do you agree?

My friends say I've been acting immature.
Some of my family members insist I stop acting immature.
Do my hormones control me being immature?
I've noticed when i try so hard to stop acting like a goof to "girl" people rather than "guy" people.

To guys.. I'm just another guy.
To girls... I'm just another nerd.

To friends... guys and girls...I'm just a goofball just to play around with them.

Should I be serious all the time despite my fact I need to joke around sometimes?
Because "girl" friends hate my "playing around" games.
And "guys" love to see me "crack another one".

How do i control this feeling?!

Last night I had a weird dream about catching mice. One of them was all white and the other was white with tan spots (the same as my dog, if that matters). Just curious!

And acquaintence of mine claims that someone he knew died of complications related to Acid Reflux disease? It seems absurd to me. How is this possible? Even if it is, wouldn't the symptoms before actual death be so severe that the person would seek out an emergency room, before the disease became lethal???

Thursday night I was on the phone with my friend Kristy just talkin, no fight no confrentation, just chattin. When I come to school Friday she's ignoring me. I find out it's because I annoy her. She and her frienf Kaitlyn get in my face and say this EXACTLY: "Your so f*uckin annoying thats why everyone hates you" I thought screw it whatever. Then at the end of the day, my friend, Ryan was by her, and we were talking (me and Ryan) Kristy whispers to Ryan to tell me thats she's ignoring me. I didn't do anything to this chick, she has problems, may I have your input on this?

i met my heroes. a band that changed my life. and a lot of people think its stupid and juvenile to practically owe their lives to a silly little piece of music. has anyone else met their heroes? my life feels complete after a handshake and an autograph and a hug. is that strange? has anybody had an experience where they met someone they have looked up to for so long? isn't it just amazing?

the band i met was my chemical romance and i owe my life to them. their music gets me through the day. i don't care if you don't like them. repsect my opinions and i'll respect yours. anyways, just a curious question from a person who can't sleep.

Me and my girlfriend were fooling around and she had on her panties ( a little thin) and i had on my boxers, though the head was somewhat exposed at the top. And then after rubbing against her like that for a while, I ejaculated and some of it got onto her panties, though not thinking about it right away, kept going at about the same motion for 20-30 seconds until actually thinking about it. Then saying something about it to her, and looking at the wet spot that was clearly above her vagina, but was still damp and not to hard to tell where the spot was. So my question was, can the sperm go through her clothing and then get her pregnant?
