Accept or walk away. People, men especially, don't change, unless it's for the worse. And the way I see it, what right do I have to decide how someone else should live their life. I have enough work to do on myself, can't be wasting time trying to change someone who doesn't want to.

(Took me almost 50 yrs to figure that out. I'm a little slow! )

Men can change for the better..have seen it loads of times... we just have to be strong as women.. and expect nothing less that we deserve....

Yeah!!! We know that he/she who protesteth too much does so because may be they feel threatened?
Either that or their EGO is soooooooooooooooo huge, they have to carry a sledge hammer with them to get through doorways!!!

..

Me too... I really don't like preachy dogmatic anything!!... I run a mile!!... think is why it took me so long to find the right Church and fellowship... strangely I have always had people try to give me Bibles and invite me to meetings... I have a book or Mormon and a New World Translation (Jehovahs Witness).. and have gone to a number of meetings... the main thing I disliked strongly about all of them is the fact that they were dogmatic, forceful, preachy and above all... judgemental.... Jesus isn't like that.. so what in the heck gave them the right to be.. just does not make sense... it was like they felt they belonged to an exclusive club, and almost delighted in the fact that the big bad world was not invited.... REALLY don't like that... as far as Jesus was concerned EVERYONE is invited... I also didn't like that these people tended to be 'sinister' sweet.. would make my blood run cold

No. I don't think that.

Some people have the confidence of knowing that NOT everyone is going to like them, BUT they are happy with WHO they are ... and so they don't "hide" their beliefs/thoughts/habits ... And some people don't give a damn what others think whether they are happy with who they are or not!!!!

When you say "when in actual fact IT PUTS MOST PEOPLE OFF getting to know them" .
I am sure you know what YOU think but, may I ask how you know what most people think?

Why is it that you see people who have come to terms with the facts they might be "not the norm" and therefore are at ease with sharing a bit about what they believe in - why do you see them as attention seekers?

Hiya... I agree.. it takes courage to be yourself... much easier to blend into the crowd and manipulate your beliefs to 'fit in'... I enjoy the varying views that people have on this site.. whether I agree with them or not... Stressfree, Trish and B.. are intelligent people with interesting things to say.. me and others like me have our own lil contributions to make also.. c'est la vie

I read a good book recently by Rick Warren, the title is "A purpose driven life" I thought it answered the questions I had about the reasons for all the suffering and pain in life. It is really a good book.

I think that this is a 'sign'.. soooo many people have mentioned this book to me recently

Ah but can love hold things together logically. Diametrically opposed mirrored twins. I say no, what say ye? do they need to be held together? or are they doin it all on their own without our nailing and hammering?? not to mention the best crazy glue of debate, belief!

.... yeah see since I have made the decision to become more faithful, I kinda have to suspend disbelief, because of some of the amazing things that I have felt and witnessed... Me 6 months ago, would not have believed the half of it... really.. the power of the Holy Spirit (which is present in us all to a degree) becomes more noticable and pronounced when you become a Christian and can only be described in the supernatural context and cannot be described logically, One can experience premonitions, and receive insight & wisdom which astounds even the receiver....and I have witnessed the power of healing.... to most (and me 6 months ago) it seems like a load of nonsense, but when you actually experience it, you have to concede that it happens, and that 'logic' does not always apply... the reason I say 'love' ties it all together is because 'love' of itself is a powerful divine force which if embraced could contribute to curing many ills in the world...

Over the past week and a half I've been very down and feeling like nothing will get better.
The breakup with my girlfriend is doing a real number on me.
I know that these kinds of feelings happen to us all.
I have these feelings of failure and dred all throughout the day everyday.
I've been in therapy for the last 10 because of my deep depression and I'm taking meds as well.
I feel sad, lost and alone and I'm scared.
Somebody please help.

First of all here is a BIG hug

hope that helps a bit...

As to feeling a failure, please try not to focus on such things.. what is 'success' anyway.. and you are not alone in feeling that you could be doing something more or something better we all feel like that at times..

There is a lot out good out there.. open your eyes to the sunlight once in a while... even if it just to observe the beauty of the world around you... while there is darkness there is also ALOT of beauty..

speaking of terms, when they let me out .... well nevermind... I think the nature of debate is diametric opposition, dont you not? You can hit the nail on the head or pound it in on an angle, either way it gets in, and actually the anglular insertion is preferred for 'holding strength'.. thats just my and some carpenter's opinions.

True... but I quite often see the logic in urs and Trish's posts on some level.. my views come from a 'faith' perspective in which 'logic' doesn't always dictate.. ya see I don't think 'knowledge' or 'logic' are the 'key' that ties everything together.. I think LOVE is.. though having said that, logic and knowledge appeal to me as I am a naturally cerebral position... so I often find my self in the curious position of not being diametrically opposed to while at the same time holding a different view... if that makes sense

Posting innane nonsense for the purpose of insulting is less understandable.. but even so.. I chose to let them...without comment.. again a free world...

In fairness to Kid.... I rarely disagree with him.. just he and I would be operating from a different spiritual base.. and B and Trish.. I always find their thoughts informative and they often lend inspiration and provoke debate....

Kinda tried too strongly there to emphasise my point... diametrically opposed is not all that accurate a term to use

This is what I was afraid people would say!! I did not say they were wrong or didn't like them....what I said was there seems to be a lot of them all at once. It seems people are trying too push their ideology onto others.

I am glad people have their own religious convictions....but there are times they try too hard to compel others to join them. Some posts are so dogmatic, that the "love" they talk about is hidden by supression.
That's why I try not to post on religious or political sites. Too often it ends up a squabble and name calling instead of an exchange of viewpoints. A lot of people can be really dogmatic about their beliefs - my way or the highway!!
