Ah.

According to you, hmm? :/ I'm sorry you won't give God the glory, not to mention the respect, for who you choose to be.

Lol, lucky you, Erica. :)

Correct, loki. We face the exact same problems that everyone else does (kind of), but we know how to handle our problems correctly, because God tells us how, in scripture. :) For example: How many of you have speeding tickets? Some of you probably do - you chose to speed, got caught, and literally paid the penalty. Romans 13:1-7 tells us (everyone) to be obedient to civil authority (cops, court officials, our bosses, POTUS, etc). I choose not to speed excessively (I'll admit to doing 5 over the limit most of the time - not saying it's right; I'm just making my point) and as a result, I don't have to pay money to the state of Ohio for speeding... because I choose not to speed (excessively). My point is, is that God tells us how to live a life here on earth for our own benefit, despite what we (as humans) may think about civil authority. Christians who choose to do things exactly as God intended live the best lives possible, because God's way is RIGHT, every time. :)

Happy to help, sir. :) Though what do you mean by "the other side"?

... during my lifetime, and I'll spend eternity in Heaven with Him and everyone else who chooses to do the same. Folks, negativity as a CONCEPT, WON'T, EVEN, EXIST! Boredom? Nope. Disappointment? Nope. Hunger? Nope. Disease, illness, injury? Nope. The LAST thing that Christ will conquer is DEATH. No death in Heaven either. :) Trust me, ALL OF YOU, you want to go to Heaven. :D I want you to go to Heaven when you die, or when Christ decides to return. Don't wait! The bible tells us exactly the steps needed to get there, if you'll just listen, and believe. :)

With respect, I disagree entirely, tylerchu. Actually, let me make entirely sure what you mean by "moral obligation". Hmm, okay, I've thought about this and this is what I've come to: God gave everyone free will. With that of course comes the choice to believe in God, or not to. If people do believe in God, read their bible, understand everything they need to about Christ, etc, then they certainly understand the moral obligation that they have to serve Him faithfully. If the person does NOT believe in God, then don't feel any moral obligation, naturally. Is that the difference you were meaning? NOW... Allow me to be absolutely clear... if someone doesn't believe in God, that does NOT remove the penalty of unrepentant sin. Atheists, agnostics, etc, etc, etc, are guilty of sin. :( Me? I'm not. You know why? It's NOT because I'm some great person, but because Christ died for me. God went 99.9% of the way for me to earn my salvation!!! :D I have to give Him my .1% of faithful service...

@lokihasthephonebox - Correct. :) It's called the Holy Spirit. :) Acts 2:38.

Oh, trust me!!! ... you DO have a moral obligation. And actually, God IS the author of all good things. James 1:17.

We aren't implying that our lives are great. I however AM implying that if your life IS great, Christian or not, you need to give God the glory and thank Him for all that you have. "Special snowflakes"? Actually, we are special. :) Because we chose, and continue to choose, to serve God in love and faithfulness because of the immense price that God paid for us to be called Holy. We are only made righteous, only made special, through Christ's death.

What I thought. :)

Quite. :)

I wonder what Summer's comment was. :/

I know she will, too. ^_^ Thanks. :) I hope you break up with Satan, if you don't mind me saying. :/ He kind of a bad guy, King of Liars is one such name. :(

Understandable, indeed.

I am for real. :) It makes guys like me happy to do nice things to others, especially to our honey-buns... er, our sweethearts. ^_^ I wish I had one though.

Not to be gross or off-topic, but I won't mind sexytime when my future wife is on her period. :/ I don't anticipate it bothering me at all. Besides, don't women get EXTRA horny during that time of the month? All the hormones and such?

Aw, thanks. :) I would stand PROUD in the checkout aisle with my mighty tampons of valor!!! Awaiting the damsel at home in dire need of such of such saving grace from the evil, wicked witch know as 'Aunt Flo'!!!

He's a man and he'll die a man.

Aw, too bad. :(
