I think my addiction will be a lifelong struggle honestly. I'll go good for a few weeks then out of nowhere its constantly on my mind. As soon as I wake up to the time I fall asleep at night, its never ending. I love the Lord though so I don't fall for it (most of the time, God forgive me)...

I briefly looked into some dating sites. Most seemed like garbage, match.com looks like a heathen paradise, and eharmony was $$$. I think I've decided to pass on the online dating stuff. It doesn't seem natural and I'm not very comfortable with throwing out all my information online for the...

Yea...I gotta get out of this area. I've been in denial for too long and now I think its catching up to me all at once.

Not to be a negative nancy or anything but in my area, Christian women are like...what would be more rare and beautiful than a unicorn? They would be whatever that is; virtually non-existent. Churches around here are mostly people ages 40+. There is one girl at my church, but shes much too...

Oops, didn't see this thread. Looks like Nick is in fact working on it. True, this site does not have any kind of sensitive data, but if someone was to get bored and grab admin account credentials and wreck havoc on the forums, it'd be a bit of a headache to fix the mess. As an example, I worked...

Just wondering why there is no HTTPS connection on here. Any logins can be seen in plaintext. I was able to get my login credentials quite easily with wireshark (on my local network). I normally run a VPN, but thats only encrypted up until the VPN server. Any wire tapping close to the CF.net...

That's another thing that worries me. Online dating is like a smorgasbord for dating, everyone can pick and choose so easily. So whats to say I don't meet someone and a week later they find someone they like better? Not saying that can't happen without online dating, but it's 1000 times easier...

It's not necessarily that I'm shy, I'm just not socially aggressive. Like if a girl sits right next to me on a park bench, there's no way I'm talking to her. But if she talks to me, I can easily talk back. Also adding to my problem, I don't get out much, so I don't have many if any opportunities...

I'd like some thoughts about online dating, more precisely Christian online dating sites. I particularly don't care for it; I think its a bit unnatural (I'm old school), as well as the hosting site is only in it for the big $$$. However, I hear about some great marriages coming from online...

Perhaps God doesn't want us to be 100 percent certain on things like that. Like JohnDB said, the bible more about the relationship between man and God rather than the history of the world. I guess thats the nature of the Old Testament, though. Difficult to understand if you try to understand...

So if Adam and eve was the first humans...then wouldn't their offspring have to commit incest to reproduce? that's against the law of god..doesn't make sense

JohnDB You're right.

SAO was probably the best anime series I've seen. But again, I'm just starting to get into the whole anime scene, so what do I know lol. I don't have much time to watch anymore because college is sucking my life away :bricks I want to watch some of the Tales of _ series (I guess thats right...

Thats exactly what I'm thinking about. So many people think that the universe was made in literal 24 hour days. I think the use of 'day' in this context is referring to a time span, rather than a 24 hour day. But what gets me is between each 'day' it says "And there was evening, and there was...

I know its common teachings that Adam and Eve are the very first humans, and that we are all descendants of them, but is this really true? The earliest human found by archaeologists is 2.8 million years old ( http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-31718336 ). But Adam is said to only be...

Essentially, if he still lives under your moms roof, he should abide by her rules. That's just proper respect. But honestly, it's just anime. It's harmless in my opinion. I watch it too sometimes (love sword art online). But perhaps your mom will understand that he is 18 and be a bit more...

Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. I am still keeping my mind on Christ. May he give me victory this day, and save me from myself.

You won't get any judgement from us, as that is not our job. We are all equally sinners and fall short of His glory. If you haven't already, perhaps you should read my post from earlier today (not boasting here) which is in this same thread (prayer requests and praises); My war of ages. Although...

So I have a decision. I can choose life, or I can choose death. I can pick up my cross and follow Him, or drop it because its too heavy and run away like a coward. I have been fighting a particular addiction for well over ten years now. An addiction in the mind is a terrible thing to have. Even...

Awesome answers guys. Pretty much exactly how I thought being a real man should really be. JohnDB great answer. A big beard doesnt define a man, or the size of his truck, or what he does for a living. Although ill admit I admire a good beard :D
