I was raised LDS all my life.up until 22,I started asking questions,Long story short I found what I believed as a mormon was totally false,and had to accept I lied to alot of people.I was shown the light of reality by the overwhelming evidence against the church.I am just glad my logical mind kicked in.Here is my question.How does one continue their lives without feeling betrayed?How does one deal with delusional mormons who want to judge you by what they believe is true?

It seems that even most black guys don't want black women anymore. I wonder how many white guys won't be with me because I'm not white. Although I consider myself mutli-cultural, still being anything but white seems to make you less than others.

I feel self conscious about the differences in my body such as certain parts... Some are bigger than whites and I wonder if that freaks a white guy out. The guys I have dated made fun of it, but didn't mind and my boyfriend now loves it. Anyway, just wondering how you feel. Be honest but be nice.

**Note: "shallow means not being deep. Surface. Immediate reaction to the physical. No inner thoughtful creativity.

"Is looking at just physical appearance shallow?"
Yes. Good enough explanation.

Take the human idea we have of aliens for example. Decades ago we scared the heck out of people with this made up idea of little green men and flying saucers and then suddenly our imagination becomes real. Either demons are real being that incarnate as our figment of our imagination, or eveyone has gone insane. Sure "aliens" exist, but in a mental/spiritual sense. The real aliens don't visit us with a short hideous appearance in ufos, abduct people, and rape them. I believe that if there were real aliens, they would all be a giant unfallen races of human beings that resemble angels.

I welcomed them like brothers. I read the entire book searching for a way to strenghten my faith. I had nothing but good intentions. I never imagined God would reveal the truth. I speak not to glorify myself. I speak what was revealed not my own interpretation.
The abomination of dessolation that Daniel speaks of is the Mormon Church.
If you don't believe me than simply ponder on this: a good heart does good without expecting or benefiting from what it has done.
Mormons leur people in with the "family" sale slogan. You can be with your family in heaven. You can be with your husband in heaven. Wonderful thing to desire. So why do they do what they do? Bargaining with God. I will be good if you give me this. Wait, in fact, you have to give it to me because I've sealed the matrimony. So I will bargain with God.
It's already hard enough to get to heaven. Now, bargaining with a wicked, desireus, selfish heart is not of God............

But,,,,,,don't believe me......read my other

I don't. The not believing is a belief doesn't work, and I don't "belief God doesn't exist", just having no reason to believe he exists I discredit the idea just like the idea that fire, water, air, and earth make up everything. It isn't a belief, just an idea I don't put any weight on. Not having proof for it, I don't believe it, it isn't that I believe that it is not. If better words come to me later I'll try to make it more clear.

Why are we accused of hatred on here when we just disagree?
I disagree with a lot of people (well, ALL) I know at some point.
That doesn't mean I hate them.
We can just agree to disagree.
This forum should be used for debate, thought and open-mindedness.

I want an error free electronic version of the Holy Quran, with original Arabic Texts, accompanied by the three most famous Sunni translations of it. (By Yusuf Ali, M. M. Pickthall, Muhammad Muhsin Khan)

I would like it in PDF format, or MS Word format, so that I can use it off line, and also make a hard copy for my collection.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abdullah_Yusuf_Ali
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pickthall

Can any one help me to create that?

when the bible says not to have sex before you get married, don't you think that some young christian adults might get married too soon to somebody that may not be the best mate for them?
There has to be a lot of people who, had they not tried to stay chaste for god, would have figured out much earlier that they were too incompatible with that person.
