Question (Morals)
- Thread starter Ashlea
- Start date
I really have felt lately like God has been all but slapping me upside the head to get me to notice he's with me all the time. Maybe I need one of those smacks...lol. It might do me some good. All joking aside.. I think this has been a guidance for me to get more in tune with my faith. I have to stop making excuses for why I don't have time to read the bible, or to attend church regularly, or to really try hard to omit the things in my life I know do not make him happy. I know he is a loving God and forgives anything.. but I want to please him. No one ever told me that accepthing christ into your life would be soooooo dang hard. These trials are for the birds.. but I know everyone must face them time to time. I've even heard some say they embrace them because it brings them closer to God. I haven't found a way to embrace them yet.. I just wanna vomit on them and say "GO AWAY".
The Bible is the word of God, and he did inspire it, BUT it was written by the interpretations of the men that God spoke to..... IMO
As far as the sex before marriage, I dont believe that it is wrong...
Just say that I had waited till i was married before having sex, if I did that and we werent compatible (you know what I mean
) would I have to stay with this man *till death do us part* that I *thought* I had chemistry with...?? I know I wouldnt, so wouldnt it be better to try the waters persay, than to keep getting married and divored with people that I thought I had chemistry with...

I must say i am not getting into the "God" part of this thread........but i wanted to add that i don't believe that sex before marraige is wrong.
After all........theres nothing wrong with using the "Tester" before buying the "Product"
Had i not have had sex before marrying my DH, i wouldn't have even dreamt of divorcing him if the "Bedroom Chemistry" wasn't right.
I didn't marry him for that.........I married him b/c i love him

I know that isnt a reason for marrying or divorcing and I more than likely wouldnt do that myself... I was just trying to make a point.....

Which is a bigger sin: sex before marriage with someone you love, or staying in a truely loveless marriage, having sex because you're "supposed" to. Or even just staying in the loveless marriage, each person hating the other more and more with every passing day, but neither agreeing to a divorce because it's a "sin". To me, continuing with something that fosters hatred and ill-will is the bigger sin.
Morals morals morals.
Like I think i said before.
It's all relative.
Even in religion! You have some "rules" but different people read the same thing and interpret it differently to the next person!!
I mean...
People seem to pick and choose which bits suit them, and then say, it's ok to do that.
But surely, you should all be following the same stuff the same, or it's pointless?
Wow - my grasp of the english language tonight is outstanding
I just don't think you can rely on some book, written a squillion years ago to doall the dirty work and decide what is wrong and what is right.
What about the person INSIDE YOU.
I just wish people had more faith in THEMSELVES to make a good or bad decision. To decide for THEMSELVES what they should or should not do.
Are people that despaired that they don't think that humans can be good and kind and MORAL without the help of some higher being?
Morals, are basically essentially translated as - good and bad.
Or - at what point do I feel I have done wrong/feel guilty.
The bible leaves somuch open for personal interpretation - and gets people so CONFUSED about what they can or can't do!!
Waffle waffle blah blah blah... I was supposed to be in bed an hour ago.
Go and hug a tree - it will do you the world of good. Or pick a flower and walk barefoot. Connect with YOURSELF.

Hmmm, I knew a gal from Leesville Louisianna that I could smell. I cant say that I was very nice to her at all. I couldnt wait for her to get in the water at Toledo bend. I think if she hadnt gone swimming she would have had to find another ride home. Perhaps it wasnt ovulation, does ovulation smell like an anchovies ass?

My opinion, (note this is my opinion) This is between you and your boyfriend and God. Personally I would wait, because I have been told the best this you can give to your spouse on your wedding night is your virginity. But, Like I said, this is between you and your boyfriend and God. So I would talk with God about this.
I grew up hearing this over and over and over and never questioned it until I got older. But when you think about it, it's really an incredibly demeaning statement. "The best thing you can give your spouse is your virginity." Basically it takes all that you are, and all that you can be, and tosses it aside in favor of a very tiny bit of skin (that can easily be 'torn' by a number of non-sexual activities prior to sex)between your legs. Why isn't the love and respect between the two of you enough? Why isn't the commitment the best thing? What is soooo special about virginity, especially in these days where bloodfeuds and wars do not start over inheritence issues, that it trumps everything else a woman is to begin with, and will be as a wife-partner?
ROFLMAO.........
That is going to be my new phrase.........
"Kids....go get a bath you are starting to draw cats"
"Hey Shirley....did you notice the woman in front of us? She is starting to draw cats"
"Hey Hubby wash your hunting clothes they are starting to draw cats"
Thanks grammy. You have opened a whole new meaning to the words "draw cats".
