It seems as if people just blindly run into alcohol, sex , drugs and philosophies to avoid what they know too well: One day they will give accounts to God ...

Sexuality is known to greatly influence your life in terms of homo and bisexuality in that this is not an issue that heterosexuals will have to face in their lives.

Some who are faced with this will withdraw from the general bulk of society and form a click of those facing the same issues as a form of support.

Do you think this is the right thing to do? Do you feel you have done so? To what extent do you feel that your sexuality has influenced your present self? (i.e., being introduced as Gay "Your name here" or "Your name here - *whisper* the lesbian *whisper*)

Moses stated "The life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it upon the altar to make atonement for your soul."

Isaiah stated 700bce about our Jewish Messiah Jesus who would be for all nations "He will be exalted. He will first be marred more than any man. All we like sheep have gone astray and the Lord will make to light on him the iniquity of us all."

do you believe Moses? Do you believe Isaiah?? I do and I came to know our Messiah personally too by believing His words -repenting and being born again. Revelation 1:1, 3:19&20 Jesus states from heaven, "I love each of you and knock on your heart door to come in and deliver from sin and become your friend."

are you apprehensive about this & what makes you apprehensive about this prospect ? do you think that "payback" is on the agenda in these countries because of past events such as the "Opium Wars, Communism in China " and "Foreign Rule in India" ? do you think that Chinese & Indian nationals, are potentially vindictive people, do you think that becoming "nuclear ready" has given these nations a new confidence on the world stage ? however do you think they could & will show the world the true beauty of their culture & their people despite their past.

Do you think that it is more likely that USA, European Union,Japan, China, India(Chindia), Brazil & Russia, some of the richer African Nations( Egypt,Ghana,Nigeria,South Africa, Tanzania), will play an increasingly "shared role" in shaping the world of the future beyond 2020 ?

I was born with an addictive personality and it is something i know i have and sometimes struggle with. Alcoholism flows in my DNA. Seeing how i was born an Alcoholic that doesnt seem to justify being one. Even if the only one i'm hurting is myself.

I highly dislike the Ku Klux Klan. Is there some kind of association I can join to protest against them?
