RE: Where are the real men????????

Thank you!

RE: how long can u keep a secret?

Depends on what you throw on the table...or floor, counter, couch, bed...

No! I need to stay strong!

RE: how long can u keep a secret?

A secret is a secret is a secret! I never tell secrets.

RE: Say something kind about the person above you!

Beautiful smile.

RE: how many hours do u spend on CS a day

Same here. I'm on holidays atm so I have free time on my hands.

Hi Pedro, hope all is well.

RE: You are NOT wanted.

John 8:38-44. Specifically verse 44. To be called a child of God is to signify a relationship (in God's definition) with God...the Father of Jacob, Issac and David of the Bible. Because not everyone has a intimate relationship with God (Christ), it can't be said that all are His children. For those unwilling to believe God because...well...He is God, they are children of the devil ans speak, do, say things their father wishes.

Oh noes! Did I say that out loud??

RE: what is religion ?

I whole heartedly agree! Religion is a set of beliefs/princibles people/s agree upon to attain higher/divine favor...whatever the beliefs or pricibles may be.

However, anyone who read/s the Bible, with the intent to know God in a deeper level, will come to realize that believing in Christ(being a Christian) and all God says in His word is not religion at all, but a way to live one's life before a real God and those around us.

In other words, apart from other religions, Christianity is God reaching to man through Christ, religion is man reaching to God through religion.

RE: Was the Bible wrong?

Agreed.

RE: who was it first who said Christ was God...?

In Jesus' own words, "If you can not understand things in earthly terms, how can you understand things in spiritual terms?".

RE: who was it first who said Christ was God...?

Hello MikeHD. First time meeting I believe. Nice to meet you.

I was going to refer to that passage but had second thoughts because, although that makes reference to Christ, it isn't directly related to Christ from the readers point of view. And I took the OP as asking from the view point of men. If I'm mistaken, sory.

RE: who was it first who said Christ was God...?

To me, it's like saying, "Who said 'I love you' first"? Is not having love between the two not enough? Is it not enough for Christ to be God without knowing who said it first?

But for Conrads sake, from my understanding Christ made the declaration first in it's full meaning....book of John 8:58-59; John 10:30-33.

RE: how close is your profile pic 2 what you look like

Taken 2 weeks ago, ya I'd say it's extremely close....minus a few facial hairs that come and go.

RE: do you think we should respect older people just because they're older?

Hello joelle.

I find it interesting that some people think the respect given is a responsibility on the one recieving it...to maintain it. There is a difference between someone able, willing, and wanting to show/give respect. But another story all together of someone who IS respectful. When someone "is" something, it's a part of who they are and not what they do. Can't change who you are but can definitely change what you do. I suppose you can change who are you to a certain degree, but takes a long time for it to solidify into the fibers of what makes you unique...IMO. I believe you can express all emotions and still maintain a high level of respect for that person/s. Like I've said before, I respect because of who I am and not what the other person is/is not.

RE: God is angry

True. Most like to live in a fantasy....like "if you think possitive, possitive things will happen". Tell that to those in Japan or Miss. People like this woman is in for a rude awakenning.

RE: Post your most favourite romantic songs

RE: At your age you should take what you can get?

Indeed.

RE: Where are the real men????????

I do wish the best for you and I agree because I think I understand your hearts desire. To find someone seriously, one needs to be serious about it. And, I personally, don't find a lot of topics or talk on here to be serious enough for me to feel confident in finding someone on here. I keep my profile open and come on here occasionally to fill in time or perhaps see a good topic that I can engage in.

I have been on this site for quite sometime and what I found was a "popularity" contest....something I care little or nothing for. But that's just me take. I could be wrong.

Anyhow, don't get discouraged too quickly. Your other half can come to you in many ways and forms. Know what you need, what you want and don't get pulled away from those. It's your future you are trying to establish.

RE: Where are the real men????????

Lol....you and I agree on that! That's why I stopped going in forums so much. A lot of the topics are for school children or people who like to get off on naughty talk.

If you email me, I will surely email you back and we can have adult conversations. :)

Peace

RE: Where are the real men????????

I'm sure he meant to become as involved in forums as some on here are. Also, you not making effort means you do not come on forums enough and say what's on your mind, joke around...ect ect.

You don't need to go in forums to find the guy you may be interested in. Look at profiles and email ones you like. I understand where you are coming from and I hope that things come together for you shortly.

Take care.

RE: Boys,Do you like the

Haha I was thinking the same.

RE: Can you love a man/woman who is not kind to you

After seeing the title for this thread, I just had to come in and take a look at responces. Almost all give 2 types of "love" to people everyday. I'm talking about conditional love and non-conditional love. To ones own family, those they didn't chose to be a family with, almost always are willing to show unconditional love. To those that they feel they do have an option to be a family or not, there is conditional love.

The problem I have with dating women, is that they can not seem to make that transition from conditional to unconditional. And no, I'm not upset or anything of the sort. It's a problem I have with seeing/feeling/sensing unconditional love from some I have met.

True that you need to allow people time to get to know you better...

My take on it is this...You don't need to behave/do/say/be anything for me to love any of you. I "Love" because of who I am, not because of who you aren't. And I can choose not to love someone (but unlikely) because of who I am not, rather than who you are. If you are meaning in an intimate way, many have been intimate and not had one bit of love for the person they are being intimate with. One thing I know of a loving person (not a person that can love) is that the love is constant, practical, forbaring and unconditional.

RE: Why don´t some people reply???

Hello :)

True, but that's not what he is talking about because I feel the same as him. Just because someone has a "right" to an action, does not make that action right. And that's what he is talking about. In other words, a lot of people are like you...do not consider being bothered with empathy. So they are more free to be asses. Because the only thing that would bother them, is if they themselves were going to be effected. Unlike this gentleman who said he would always reply...even if turned down. Why? Simply because he has EMPATHY! :) That should be a hint...

RE: How deep is your love?

Okay...so now I'm here thinking more about this...mind if I jot a few thoughts? Sweet, ty!

I'm sure a lot, if not most, of us want a love that feels free. Meaning: we are free to be ourselves...good and bad...we are accepted and still desired. Something I believe is not the case in many, many relationships today. If the person we are with does a fraction of what the kids do to us, we will throw them out of our lives with little hesitation. Perhaps that image is different in each one's eye, but my point is that relationships are more expendable today than they once were...and this is the type of love we have to hold things together. Life is life and always will be. Life has not changed for mankind, our commitment has.

I do hope we all find that type of love (outside of our families) in our lives at some point.

RE: How deep is your love?

Thanks lol

RE: How deep is your love?

Hello everyone. After reading what each person wrote, one thing that struck out at me was choice/decision.

As the times have changed, so have the ideas and values we once held to. I look/think back to times when people/family actually stayed together...no matter what the circumstance, wives loved the husbands as they loved her children, and the husband loved the wife the same way/amount as he did his children. They were a "Family". Which leads me to the second thing that struck out at me: Family. Seems to me that most on here has a strong love for those they didn't choose to have in their lives than those they do have a choice....hmmmm....just an observation.

To me, I feel love is not a "feeling" (although it does produce good feelings). Love is a commitment. The matter in question is: At what level are you willing to be committed? Because the "love" we show others is directly related to our commitment level to that person...and it's always by choice. Not only so, but I will go even further and say that it's also a choice to "how" we show love...which is important because, let's say after 5 years, doubt can set in the relationship. But we can not love anyone more than we are committed to them. Can we all say we were committed to our Ex's as we are to our children?....no excuses. The thing is, it's not about the other person but ourselves, how we love. True love is not earned, but freely given....if it wasn't so, we would never have been told to love our neighbor.

RE: Hamas 101

That's right....the proper thread subject means everything. Forget about content, that's so irrelevant.

Oh I might add that many others have posted threads in the wrong subject before, but then again, it was about hating Jews or some question only a elementary child would ask.

But who am I to split hairs?

RE: quantum physics

To science-fiction aficionados, he remains a folk hero: the man who invented a quantum theory of multiple universes. To his children, he was someone else again: an emotionally unavailable father; “a lump of furniture sitting at the dining room table,” cigarette in hand. He was also a chain-smoking alcoholic who died prematurely.

RE: mystery man

That does sound kinda creepy, Nanners. He obviously knows you worked where you used to be. Be careful.

RE: Warning, Disturbing Content

Being convinced changes? Perhaps for those that are wishy-washy/indecisive.

It's pretty trite to always use the term, "Poor Illustration". Give reasons for your thesis please.

Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1).

"Where is the wise man? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not come to know God, God was well-pleased through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe. For indeed Jews ask for signs and Greeks search for wisdom; but we preach Christ crucified, to Jews a stumbling block and to Gentiles foolishness, but to those who are the called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men. (1 Corinthians 12: 20-25)
