    The Mormon Church

    Well. When you question the motives of their "Prophet" for polygamy, you get your answer. Abraham could not beget children, so with the consent of Sarah, he took a second wife, Hagar. For the reason of begetting offspring. Preaching polygamy and supplanting women with a cult like religion is...

    The Mormon Church

    Here in this video, the Preacher suggests and invites others to believe in Jesus. This is different from what I am talking about. In a Secular society, you can appeal to others to follow your religion. But it cannot be forced on someone. Religious fundamentalism means that it's the religion of...

    The Mormon Church

    I have heard of Mormon history. Read a little about it here and there. Watched a few movies related to Mormonism. Even have knowledge of at least 1 or 2 Mormon celebrities. And it does not have a Christian feel to it. Even their scripture is so different. And that's where we have The Bible as is...

    The Mormon Church

    I don't understand all of what you said. When I said fundamentalism, I meant believers who will go to the lengths of taking a life for the sake of religion. Historically, no religion has spread without bloodshed, including Christianity sadly. That's something which Jesus would condemn Himself...

    Gaming

    I've played in Nintendo Switch. Yes, it's portable. Can carry wherever you go and connect with a television and play with friends. Of Course, there's playstation 5. Xbox, etc. You could buy a gaming laptop or desktop for your kid. If they have steam account, they can pretty much download and...

    The Mormon Church

    I'm seeing this series called "Under the banner of heaven." It's based on true events. It goes on to show how religious fundamentalism can ruin lives. In this case, Mormon fundamentalism from the looks of the series looks cult like. IDK, it's just a series. But supposedly based on true events...

    Speak Your Mind.

    This is a Bible verse that I came by and it gave me great comfort. I want to share this here. 9 But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will...

    Need your prayers. Just an ear to hear.

    Thank you so much. It's not everyday I meet a believer who goes to the lengths you have to hear me and share with me your faith in Jesus. I will remember what you have said and shared with me. I know God is there to guide me. He'll take care of me. He has taken care of me until now. Thank you...

    Need your prayers. Just an ear to hear.

    Thank you for hearing me. And for keeping me in your prayers. I know that it is important for me to leave my home to start a family of my own. I knew way back and still know even today that I am in no position to start a new family in my present home. I'm working towards it and if God wills it...

    Need your prayers. Just an ear to hear.

    Dear Sister, I thank you for sharing with me your story. I can relate to what you are telling me. It's amazing how you do this for your father and it is hard to hear that you actually help him in his time of need the way that you do. You are doing what is pleasing in God's eyes. Because you...

    Need your prayers. Just an ear to hear.

    I shared what I shared here to vent out. Yes, my mother can be abusive. Maybe, my honesty was a mistake here? I don't know. So you accept every advice given to you? That's you. But I have the right to accept what I deem best for me and my situation and I have to do what I know needs to be done...

    Need your prayers. Just an ear to hear.

    Friend. I respect your offer. And if you lived close by me, I would not refuse. I am never one to refuse someone's help. Especially when I need it. And anyone who offers help to me, I look at as a friend. At least till the time he or she helps me and I will return the favour if i have the...

    Need your prayers. Just an ear to hear.

    I posted this thread here out of desperation to be heard. And advice was given by many for which I am very thankful and grateful. And most of them gave it in a way which was right and acceptable. So, I am thankful and I have nothing but good to think of them in return and thank God for what good...

    Need your prayers. Just an ear to hear.

    So who says I wanted out through another person? did I? I'm talking about my own life in argumentative fashion. I don't like this dialogue and there's only so much advice and help I need. Thanks for your advice. But if you're saying your way is the only way then you're wrong. I appreciate your...

    Need your prayers. Just an ear to hear.

    You're not in my shoes. Have you been alone without a significant other for all your adult life owing to your life circumstances? I didn't think so. I've sacrificed so much for my family. The main reason I keep from looking for a partner is because I don't want to hurt the woman I'm supposed to...

    Need your prayers. Just an ear to hear.

    Thank you very much for your kind words. You sort of understand what I shared here. I am very assertive. I do set boundaries. It is hard. Though I thank you for your prayers and I will pray for myself and my family as I always do. I just hope my mother realises that. But it's hard for her to...

    Need your prayers. Just an ear to hear.

    I cannot say how she would react to something. I guess with age and loneliness on her part comes the insecurity as well. My father's passed on. God rest his soul. But it was a tumultuous marriage. I don't want to go too deep. Long story short, my mother has been affected badly by it. We as...
