African-American, whatever you want to be called? I have many gay friends, however I still have issues when they compare there fight to that of African-Americans. I was born African-American... I can not change my skin color.... what ever anyone does behind closed doors is their business I am not going to get on the debate wagon whether they were born that way or not..... most of my friends in college started out straight and graduated GAY!

I don't know what to do. My husband and I have been married for about 2 years now and my sexual drive is completely lacking! I don't know why and it has nothing to do with him. I'm not thinking about anyone else nor am I doing anything wrong. I've prayed about this issue and its making problems in our marriage with sexuality. What should I do?

Then why are they so angry at us that do, I don't understand where their hatred comes from. If, according to them God does not excist why are they so offended by him?

Fellow Christians. If you have accepted our Lord Christ,
repay him back for what he did for you. He died in Cross for you being tormented and tortured and humiliated.
Repay him back my brothers. It's better to avoid sex completely. You will burn but you will burn for Jesus Christ--you will burn to pure gold. Repression of sex is like prayer and sacrifice to our Lord. Avoid temptation--not even look at or talk with women, if you are unmarried.Do you know it was for the woman that Adam was misguided and disobeyed Jesus to eat the fruit
and bring sin amonst us. Do you know that it was the woman who was actually the first one to commit the sin of disobeying Lord Jesus? Do you know how the name woman came? It was formed from two parts--WOE+MAN.
Lord thus cursed most of the women because they rebelled against the Lord. That's another reason that God incarnated as a man and not a woman.Most women today are transvestites and abominations. God cursed Eve that she will be like a servant to Adam but again you will see--most women don't recognize the Lord's command and again they are rebellious.
If u have sex before marriage then in Gods eyes u are married to that person if a man rapes a woman in Gods eyes they are married.
So, it's better not to even marry.

Seriously, do girls like it when other girls do it on them? From the look of it, it looking quite painful? If you do, how do you do it and how does it feel like?

Lets just say that there "really" is a god, you die and you find yourself at the White Perly Gates, God and Jesus are standing there, looking at you what do you say?

I think I would say "Ah Hell"

Next summer, after I graduate highschool me and a couple of friends will be living in Italy for a year. We already know what we need to do and have our financial situation in order and everything, but one thing we don't really have planned is the fact that while we're living in Italy we want to see as much as Europe as possible. I've already been to Italy, France, and Switzerland but my friends have not (and I would love to go again also) and would like to see the other two countries plus many more (Spain, Greece, Austria, Slovenia and so on). The thing is, we don't know how to go about it. We figured on staying in youth hostels....but we just don't know whats the best thing to do. Have any of you ever done anything like this? If yes, could you please give me some advice or maybe a website to go to. Thanks!

We've had pentecostalism and the charismatic movement, Faith healing, television ministry, christian rock, the Jesus Movement (hippy), the Purpose Driven Church, the name it and claim it prosperity (word of Faith) movement, the Toronto blessing (christian laughter and barking lol), Christian mail order, Christian politics, Potter house, Christian Yoga and Martial arts, Christian movies and fiction, bible prophecy seems to make a comeback every generation, etc.

What do you think the next big money making christian fad will be?

I mean i usually pray for a good day and thank him for everything. that's something some what simple. Our pastor is always telling us that God wants us to ask for something big. so then why is it when a woman has fourteen days left to live, i pray to extend her life, she dies in four days? why is it that for namy days i offered praise and thaksgiving asked God for a job that i really wanted. i trusted so much in him. i gave the last of my money in sacrificial offering and now I find out that they have to many people and i dont get the job. so why should i still trust God after he has shown to be not trustworthy. I am really dissappointed and confused.

If you never had a father or you had a horrible one, I know those feelings you have, I know the empty feeling and the "missing" piece in your life. Mine was an abusive drunk beyond belief. If this is you I would like to share what I have learned to you. There is nothing wrong with you, what happened to you was not because of you. I know the fear of having children, I too had that fear. Give your children what we so desperatly wanted from our own fathers..you know what that is because it's the very thing you craved. LOVE them like crazy, Love them without hesitation and I promises you it will be returned. Love them lavishly, Love them extravagantly, not with money...your heart! I have rasied 3 wonderful children and they walked in love everyday of their lives with me...I was never abusive or caused harm...DON'T FEAR! You have what it takes..use the pain to be the parent you know you wanted...Love NEVER fails!!!

sorry so long....will you agree with me about you?

All one has to do is take a look at the American prison system. Nearly 76% of violent criminals are Christian and NO, most of these Christians did not convert after conviction, they were Christian at the time of the crime. The greatest genocides in human history stemmed from the Christian faith. If you examine secular societies in comparison to religious societies; secular societies will consistently have less crime, unemployment, corruption and more freedom, share of wealth and a higher standard of living. Nearly EVERY single advancement towards morality (I.E: ceasing native genocide, freeing the slaves and women’s suffrage) was OPPOSED by the church and Christian organizations.
