Now, if someone asks me what "I am," I simply say "spiritual."<BR/><BR/>It's refreshing to hear someone that is Christian--and openly so--that is not willing to judge another. Unfortunatly, people fitting that discription aren't the ones that get heard (often). I really wish more of the out-spoken Christians were as kind as you while expressing their opinions.Stormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06295172376490061760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10344322.post-1120354836388192412005-07-02T20:40:00.000-05:002005-07-02T20:40:00.000-05:00My belief is, if one wait until marriage before ha...My belief is, if one wait until marriage before having sex, there is a lot less pressure for that couple in the bedroom. Is it easy to wait? No...Impossible? no. I wish I had waited.<BR/>And what's so important about finding a "soulmate?" I was 25 when I got married. I didn't find a soulmate, I found a helpmate, a partner, and a lover. Marriage isn't about being in love all your life. We've never stopped loving each other, but at times, we've really disliked being married. <BR/>We have a solid marriage. Divorce is out of the question for both of us. Murder, though, has been a consideration. My point is, if you get married because you're "in love," God help you. The honeymoon doesn't last that long, and reality sucks sometimes.<BR/>Not to say we don't love each other... we do. And we constantly rely on God's grace because inevitably, one of us disappoints the other. SO what? We're committed, not only to each other, but to Christ, who helps us through.20mileview.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01536793437877268409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10344322.post-1120220300286653062005-07-01T07:18:00.000-05:002005-07-01T07:18:00.000-05:00And I am a right-leaning, but not too extreme Chri...And I am a right-leaning, but not too extreme Christian conservative who ALSO finds organized religion very distasteful.
