A little of both quite honestly. I have seen some old looking, run down tattoo parlors where I live, so in that respect I suppose I mean hygienic...but metaphorically, I suppose the "dirty" label also applies. When you think of the person who most likely gets a tattoo, the first image that pops...

I said I would not cause a fuss about the tattoo parlor in the mall, but I would go a step further and say that I would almost encourage it (assuming parlors are going to be built SOMEWHERE regardless). If a tattoo parlor is in the mall, they will want their store to be clean, respectable, and...

Thank you both for your prayers and blessings.

Okay some background on this one: This summer, I am working at a youth center in the heart of Cincinnati. As a result of our location, the children that come are almost completely inner-city, black children. Many of these kids do not have godly father figures, or ANY father figure, in their...

Well I feel like the article was aimed at guys right? :chin It seemed like the guys version of girls not wearing suggestive clothing around men to avoid temptation. Haha. It was interesting to read, but I felt like every statement ended with some sort of qualifier...like be nice to her...

I'm even more confused now..... :lol

I would just like to ask anyone/everyone here: Should our opinions on the matter be altered at all due to the fact that a sinful being committed the sinful act on a blameless being. It's my understanding that all children who are unable to understand the Gospel is blameless to the Lord. The man...

Yet another "all or nothing" topic in Christianity is that of the Trinity. From the look of your post, Jesus is not held in such a high regard to you, and I'm assuming for Mormons. In John 10:30, Jesus states: "I and the Father are one." That alone speaks for itself. And I stand by what is said...

It's not even very different, but it is different....so I do not consider it to be in the "category" of Christianity. Nowhere within Christianity should Jesus be a "minor topic," I don't care if they believe in him or not. There are a few "all or nothing" topics within Christianity and the...

1 Paul, an apostle —sent not from men nor by a man, but by Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead — 2 and all the brothers and sisters[a] with me, To the churches in Galatia: 3 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, 4 who gave...

Hey G, Interesting circumstance you got here. As a male myself, and in college, I can say that those types of guys are not the ones to be associated with. If he's acting according to his personality, I feel like a lot of "bad" behavior could result. One thing I've noticed (to my dismay :lol )...

Not necessarily, no. I don't think her getting pregnant from another man could ever produce upsides. It might make you feel good, because you are forgiving her and insisting you want to move on, but I see this being a ticking time bomb. She is so distraught about what she did to you, no matter...

Wow jason, that is intense. Perhaps I've become so accustomed to the dramaticized version of how people meet, date, and get married that I forget it's not always that cut and dry... And to the OP, what you are doing is commendable, and I know you love her, but what she did...whew. You may be...

Well said and great choice of Scripture. :-) :nod

What I tend to not understand about this debate is something that has easily been touched on, but I will go a step further...(and I'll try to be as unbiased as possible) For those who believe it is a choice, I offer you a question: Why in the world would someone CHOOSE to be homosexual? The...

I've been hooked on these two songs lately... By Your Side- Tenth Avenue North http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdjRmM0Q0qs and... Live Like That- Sidewalk Prophets http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GfosSggwQS0

As evident in the Great Commission, our duty is to "make disciples of all nations," but I don't think we will be judged by how MANY we make. I suppose, to better understand your question, do you simply mean "converts" as in those who profess to love Christ and accept Him as their Savior (who may...

I thought everyone was supposed to be the same in heaven....this seems like just another competition :shrug :(

I was like this for the longest time, but I think I'm now starting to turn around. I'm slowly but surely letting my emotions out and it DOES feel good! :yes

It's funny you use that term...my professor and I were talking and he associated it with me and I was like.. "huh? :shrug" ..had to have him explain what it meant :( Anyway...thank you to those who commented I meant every word in the OP. :thumbsup ;)
