I am because of my religion, and I really feel like I'm all alone. Is anyone else choosing to stay a virgin until marriage? If so, why? And if not, why? Only serious answers please.

Just curious. I see all these questions and comments about race racial classifications and have to wonder what they'd say about me. I'm American and my ancestors came from all the British Isles, Azores, Germany, possibly France, possibly some Dutch or Netherlands in there, and Norway. I speak English.
So what race am I and what ETHNIC group am I?
Just curious about your opinion.

Many universities award degrees in theology, including bachelor's, master's and even doctor's of theology and divinity--but this area of study is completely unprovable and entirely speculative. How can a Doctor of Divinity possibly be on the same par as a Ph.D. or even an M.B.A.? Your *real* Doctor of Medicine has infinitely more *factual* data in his education that your Doctor of Theology. Aren't religious degrees a joke?

that they're trying to convince themselves that what they believe in is right by always repeating it to themselves because they know what they believe in is wrong is that true hon?

for my brother and soon to be sister-in-law.

What I need is, "I love you" in as many different languages as possible (but not Chinese or Japanese, because I need letters, not symbols).

Please don't refer me to a translation website. I need ACCURATE translations.

Thank you!

It's called an Individualist. Everyone has the right to believe what they feel about God. If we all felt the same, God would've made us all look the same, walk the same, have the same senses. But we were all created differently and all should have our own beliefs, not follow what others have written in the Bible and other Religious literatures. I believe I was put here by God. I don't believe that Jesus is the son of God. I believe he suffered an inhumane murder and the teachings of Jesus is so that we as humans don't treat one another in this manner. We should all treat each other like an individual, and not set out to brainwash each other with all sorts of mytholigical tales. Find yourself. Stand up and become an individual. Believe in your thoughts, and don't let anyone else persuade you. Imagine what this world would be like if everyone would be themselves.

I have three: The snowy owl (because they are beautiful and I had a very intense dream about one when I was younger), the dragonfly (I have always been fascinated with them) and the cat (I have had many close relationships with cats over the years. They have personalities very similar to humans.)

I also like wolves, hummingbirds, herons, orca whales and deer.

How about the very real love and compassion humans and even animals have for the less fortunate among us?
Really, infants could not survive if it were truly 'survival of the fittest'.
Neither could the sick or physically challenged. Yet these do survive and always have.
Humans have always taken care of the less fortunate in their midst.
So Survival of the Fittest is not a hard and fast rule that has caused mankind to evolve into what we are today.

How many agree/disagree? Why/why not?

Is it ok for me to say thanks to some of you for being smart and not antagonistic when replying to some of my questions?

Or would you think I was insincere?

Cause I really do appreciate some of you, and some I don't.

Here are some verse I found that might help your question:

They profess to know God, but in works they deny Him, being abominable, disobedient, and disqualified for every good work. Titus 1:16

For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome.1 John 5:3

Now by this we know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments. He who says, “I know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him.1 John 2:3-5

“For as many as have sinned without law will also perish without law, and as many as have sinned in the law will be judged by the law. For not the hearers of the law are just in the sight of God, but the doers of the law will be justified;” (Romans 2:12-13)
