I am biased myself, I've been a friend of Bill for 22 years and through a program of recovery I've found a way of life that I never dreamed possible. I am forever grateful to God and my program for resurrecting me from the pits of addictive/alcoholic hell. If you haven't walked a "foot" (forget a mile) in my shoes, you know not what I speak of. I've been to hell and don't want to go back, today.

God Bless

Peace and Love

I see evolution as an inteligent process of nature. And if it is inteligent, It cannot be random. So Evolution might actually be the best proof of an inteligent force behind life there is...

I've been having really weird dreams, and I wake up drained everyday. Can dreaming actually take energy from you while you sleep?

Adam & Eve were created by God & they are His children. So, God must be their Father and they both shud be brother & sister. How can both of them end up having children? An incestuous relationship?

Is that how God justifies innocent babies being struck with disease or suffering starvation? We see pictures of misery from innocent lives that are suffering and YOUR BIBLE would condone this as Gods Just way of teaching us to be strong as he has defined us a Sinners-so accordingly we should all go to prison for life because Jeffery Dahmer murdered-sodomized and ate his victime-You say I am paying the price for Adams transgressions because; and I quote "JeZus Loves Me Yes I know-For The BIBLE TELLS ME SO" little children die each day-Because we accept GODS WAY-Yes JeZus Loves Me-Yes JeZus Loves Them-Yes I'm a Sinner-THE BIBLE TELLS ME SO! I might not have beenthe greatest guy in my life and have never believed that I could be near as perfect as the GLORY of God-But I think God Got it all backwards-I am not a sinner-HE IS-and I see suffering in this world not caused by SATAN (Who God Created) but by THE CREATOR OF ALL THINGS! Yes I Am A Sinner-The Bible Tells YOU SO-GOD JEZUS IS A LIAR

Since you don't believe in it, do you take it as an insult?


Like if a person says to you: You aren't a good person to me and society so that's where you are going.

What do you understand from that famous phrase: You are going to Hell, since you don't believe in it?

A lot of people believe sin is when you do something "bad" that is easy to define - there are "'good" things and "bad" things that apply to everyone, but is that really correct? Isn't sin more about doing "your own thing" and being outside of God's will?

What is sin for me (doing something outside God's will for MY life) may NOT be sin for you (if that's God's will for YOUR life.) Do you agree? Of course there are some things that are always sin - like murder, adultery, and the rest of the 10 comandments.

I am NOT going to answer any questions regarding My faith unless you all get your facts straight. WE are not polygamists, We believe in Jesus Christ, God the Father, And the holy ghost. ASK ME and i will tell u. Dont just assume that crap you hear about mormons. Dont believe what u read, see, or hear because there are many anti christs out there that hate us. Those who dont think the mormons are christians need a head check and are anti christs themselves

Thank you & love n light.
