I have been a total cold hearted b'itch tonight.

I am so sorry. I was wrong to be so hateful and angry. I won't ask for forgiveness, because I don't deserve it, but I promise to try to be more tolerant and understanding of our differences in the future.

Goodnight and I wish you all a Happy New Year

"4:17 And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch: and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch."


That is the first mention of her. Did she just appear out of nowhere? Did she have parents? Who were the parents? Why do they not hold the importance that Adam and Eve do? It seems like Christians would have figured this out since she does have about 6.5 billion living descendants.

I'm looking to understand why some pagans worship Odin...

Why is Odin your god?
What did he do to merit devotion?
What does he teach you to do?
Do you think he is the God of Gods... or is there another greater than he?
Why is Odin-worship a good thing?

when you say that it's a forgivable sin, does that mean you're forgiven automatically or do you need an effort to it?
unintentional sins aren't considered as sins?
im just a christian with mental illness, ocd
does he forgive blasphemies done by frustration from mental illness or some method to stop it
i tried to say f**king jesus out loud, but i don't remember what i said, just this phrase is conspicuous in my mind, i was tired of saying the phrase in my mind
i thought that it was a method to stop me since it's worse and i got frustrated saying something that i don't even want to go near
can't remember well, but i think my ocd played a role

My husband is a church leader in the music department and his mistress is leading praise and worship and I told someone in leadership, the pastor's secretary and they are still in place. I refuse to continue to attend because the church continues to let them remain in position. He told me he doe's not love me anymore and made a mistake to have married me and feels that he is justified to do as he pleases because of this, and yes we are still married and living in the same house and no papers have been filed. What is your opinion as far as should I take further action or let it be and find another church.

What makes abortion or gay marriage any worth more legislating than any other sin that is legal like pornography, fornication, or lying? Isn't a sin a sin because they all make you deserving of hell? Not having gay marriage isn't going to stop people from commiting sexual sins or stop sin in general. If religion can be used as legal justification for laws, then maybe eating pork should be illegal because it offends jews and muslims. There's no evidence that even a single person changed their ways due to christians trying to legislate their religious views, but political activism has turned millions of people off from christianity. Isn't the job of christians supposed to be preaching the gospel and letting people voluntarily chose whether they want to accept it a lot, not trying to force people into a straightjacket by legislating their lifestyle. Change is only meaningful when it comes from the heart as a result of faith anyway. Activism only makes the other side more militant.

The New Year shooters are going around to peoples homes and shooting their muskets and wishing everone Happy New Year. It is a tradition from the german settlers in Cherryville North Carolina. They create a boom so loud that it can shake your house. My horse's and dog at first, runs around like crazy. They will continue through the night and probably till dinner time tomorrow. The fireworks will start soon for we have finally got some rain. We have been in a drought. Dont for get to eat your black-eye beans and turnip greens tomorrow. That is for health and money in the New Year. Happy New Year!!!It is12;00
