I'm not sure, I'm just saying this has happened before, and the results were not pretty. I don't have to be hurt to take this seriously.

I would have to find someone who's even remotely interested in me. Slim chance of that happening given I'm 24 and have never been asked out once.

I only really did that with my father, years ago, when I was small enough to fit in his lap.

Yeah. Which is why people need to start taking their faith seriously and quit giving into fear, intimidation, and perpetrators who happen to be loved ones. And the reputation of an institution is never more important than the people involved. God doesn't care about reputation. He cares about...

Perhaps provide companionship, maybe an extra income to fall back on. I don't have that luxury as a single person.

I said I would like to, but it's no longer a necessity, at least in the Western world, for a woman to be married in order to survive economically.

Good for you. But I do care. I haven't lost faith in God, but I'm just about done with the American church. It's not an accident that all these abuse reports are coming up. God is not mocked, and now they're being shown for who they really are. Apparently the church is no different from those...

Not in that way, but society definitely does. I would like to have a man like that, but I don't personally need one. Besides, I already have my male relatives.

Good, we need more men like that.

Because I want to vote for someone of integrity. Evangelicals threw a fit when Clinton cheated on Hilary. Yet they're rooting for someone who committed adultery while his wife was pregnant. And they claim to champion "family values." Give me a break.

Of course I didn't. But I'm not gonna get any further into this. Nothing good comes from talking about politics on online forums.

You have your opinions. I'll have mine. Had I been given the chance to do it again, I wouldn't have voted at all.

Whatever you say.

I hate getting involved in politics these days. If I had to choose, I'd be an independent. Both parties are no longer concerned about character. All they care about is winning.

Ancient theologians and medieval theologians would disagree with you about God giving into emotion. God has a trait called immutability, meaning he's not prone to wild mood swings like people are. And as I keep saying, animals act on emotion. We have the ability to think reasonably. We protect...

This is one big reason why abuse is so widespread in the church, because we prioritize love for perpetrators over love for victims. I've read about only one pastor who found out that his own father, his church's pastor, had been molesting and abusing women and girls for decades. And instead of...

Thank you for your words and prayers. I have heard of the first movie, and I understand fiction is a way for us to explore the potential consequences of things that are either not possible in real life or too dangerous to explore in real life. I don't get my morality from movies though...

That's good for you ma'am, but this ain't the 1950's anymore. They're never coming back, nor should they. I for one do believe men and women are different, but I don't believe in putting anyone in boxes. The women of the early 1900s went through horrific abuse just so we could have the right to...

I was never really into either. I'm not one to get caught up in hype trains.

If only my family didn't fight me for the remote.
