Mine not here either

However, I learnt something really important:

No matter the advantages or disadvantages of your body time, dressing well will bring out the very best in you.

If the Op is correct, some models and celebrities have not so woaw shapes and we with better shapes would still pray to look like them.

maclatunji: Sorry, I don't mean to cause offence with you but I really think your posts tend to be naive and cute at the same time. That is not an insult and no. You did not answer the question.

None taken

When God created man from the dust, He inputted His spirit into man

The Spirit of God in man is different from the Holy Spirit

Royal Roy: Bukatyne, thanks muchos!!!

In-between work & peeping in.

How is your day going?

What's for lunch?

Anything for the boiz?

You are welcome

baldman: @Nashville: Since apparently you read your Bible very well, can you please direct me to the verse of the Bible that supports the bolded. I know it is fast becoming 'acceptable' now because some pastors are doing it but really my bible tells me that he who is intimate with the one who is divorced has committed adultery. I know this is one point people don't like admitting for obvious reasons.

I agree with your point on the fact that when men get away with cheating it kinda encourages other men to continue, but trust me, men do not get away with cheating,you cannot put a hot coal on your bosom and not be burnt. Anyways, a man that will cheat will cheat regardless of the consequences( there are men still sleeping around without protection in spite of the high risk of contact STDs).

I still maintain that cutting off the head is not the cure for an headache. I hope by the time the children who have been trained to divorce a cheating husband after a 'second chance' are on their fifth husbands (like the Samaritan woman) they will suddenly discover that men are not good for them and that they are better off with women or altogether on their own.

Spouses should cultivate the habit of praying for each other,particularly with respect to their weaknesses, who doesn't have one?. Perseverance must permeate every aspect of the marriage relationship. The women who grew old in marriage didn't do so because they got married to 'Nashvilles' ( Immunized- against-cheating men) of this world, they did because divorce is not a norm in our society ( unlike the Oyinbos), so they persevered and they are the better for it.

Mr. Baldman,

Please separate culture, your own beliefs from Christianity.

God never considered adultery as a weakness.

Not everyone is suited to marry. If a man knows he cannot stick to his wife alone, why should he marry?

So according to you, women 'growing' old in marriage with cheats and irresponsible men are better than women who divorced and moved on with their lives?

Once again, separate your beliefs and opinions from God's word. He is not so wicked to bound women to life of misery.

Marriage is NOT compulsory.

[quote author=$wtme]Tnx sis but i no get boys o na girls i get [/quote]Then train them on the kind of husbands they should marry

The truth is that whatever you do, take, condone, accept, reject from/to their dad is showing them what to accept from their future hubby.

You are the mirror they are look at.

maclatunji: Your posts tend to be naively cute. Oh really? Please tell us what was dwelling in the people that lived before Jesus (AS) was born? Evil spirit?

The bolded is NOT necessary.

We have been communicating without insults.

The first line of my post below answers your question

bukatyne: Sorry, I did not come back to reply

Christianity teaches man is a spirit that has a soul and lives in a body

A man's spirit does not live forever. Once a man dies, his spirit goes back to God and his soul is judged while his body decays.

One characteristics of the Comforter/Holt Spirit was that He will live in us. Does Mohammed live in you?

The Holy Spirit bears witness with our spirits that we are the children of God. Does/ Can Mohammed bear witness with your spirit? Can a body bear witness with a spirit?

Royal Roy don't you acknowledge when you are been congratulated?

It is well

Ace Ventura: Today @ about 8am, my wife went into pre term labour @ 5months & we lost our twin baby boys. I ended up burying my sons @ Ikoyi Cemetery. I'm so pained right now. Dunno what I did to deserve this hit in life.

Any words of encouragement will help cos I'm depressed. I refuse to rebel against God.

She would've been due in December & we would've gone to Dubai next month for baby shopping. Now all plans have been cancelled.

God will restore all that you have lost in sevenfold.

This is when Madam really really needs you. Please be there for her and also show her that you are pained too.

Try to note anything that might have triggered it and avoid for the next ones.

She also needs a lot of rest now.

It will be well

Accept my sincere condolences

Hi all,

Congrats RR.

All the best.

[quote author=baby_123]Orisirisi...God rescue us from today's Men of men.[/quote]Lol!

It is well

I guess we the women allowed them.

Read all the treads of cheating; what do we advice? Wear sexy pant, wear push up bra, paint red lip stick, fast and pray, cook good food, have se.x more etc.

A man knows he will get all these and you advice him not to cheat?

You wain pour sand for im garri?

roaringlamb01: What do you know that is feminism, my dear sister? Is it in the Word of God? Smh. Just women with low self esteem n rebellion seeking a reason to rebel even more. I guess you are not married.... Both of you....

roaringlamb01: I I have little problem with what you have written, u will learn from the Lord. But I question your reason4 all these. Break homes, break relationship, discredit the church of the living god. You may think you av a few points but I think it is rebellion.. He that defiles temple of God, God will destroy. 1st Corinthians 3:17.

Build people up, not this. Except, the Lord sent u, shut up.

roaringlamb01: The best way is to understand any thing, sometimes, is to look at living examples.
People who have followed or lived out these things to have so clearly stated.
How is working out for them now? Are they still in their homes? Note that, when a home breaks, the children's life suffer n a trend is set in their lives. The children esp the girls, become independent n what not...

I agree with what you are saying in some areas, but why drink a glass of milk with a drop of poison in it?
What is the point of your post exactly? Build people up not all these jare.

You are so so funny.

Biko answer the question below

bukatyne: What is demonic about the write up?

Please give a yes or no answer to the following questions with Biblical proof

Is God's ultimate plan for women that they serve their husbands?
Can women be spiritually and physically fulfilled without men? i.e. must a woman be married to be fulfilled?
Can a woman work outside the home?
Should a woman submit obediently to her husband in all situations?
Must a man cover a woman in her ministry activities?
Should a woman view her hubby as the priest of her home?
Are women naturally equipped or unequipped for leadership roles?
Is it right for women to preach/teach men in a church settings?
Are women more easily deceived than men?
Do women who exhibit strong leadership spirit possessed with the spirit of Jezebel?

Expecting your response in advance.

Thanks

RoyPCain: @bukytyne; I was editing and unfortunately you had responded;

"Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world," (1 John 4:1-3). This verse shows that "spirit" is not only the unseen, human 'prophets' too, regardless of being false or true prophet of God. The general body of christianity, all of them say man is a spirit and they are convinced of it. But they always fail to apply this spirit quality to man when it comes to prophets whose spirit lives on forever in spite of physical death.

This therefore explains why The another comforter is predicted to "hear the speech of God" and repeats what he heard as in "speak" to the community of people; believers and non believers alike.

It is obvious that The Tongues of fire, instead of Tongue of fire or a really physical entity that can speak did not speak to the disciples on the occasion of pentecost. Instead, there seemed to have been an inspiration to speak in tongue [what they said no one knows till date] and made them have courage of boldness as if either one of the two is anything Jesus spoke about, unless we are saying Jesus was wrong, which i am sure you are not going to suggest since its your book that we are discussing.


John 14:16 "And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever"

At least one will expect the written record [if not records like the many gospels about Jesus but not of Jesus], of what the disciples heard on pentecost, had it been that the holy spirit was the another comforter in a ghostly nature fulfilling what Jesus said must be fulfilled. If the another comforter was not as important as Jesus, the word of Jesus about the another cpmforter must be important enough to warrant the writing down of how he fulfilled because the fulfillment was an headline from the lips of Jesus. headline gets the attention of the audience. you are bound to elaborate on the topic by writing the details of the headline, otherwise the headline is useless. you dont get attention for no reason; you spell out the headline by the body which is the detail.


Although the disciples didnt tell us every details about Jesus, but they believe the another comforter as mentioned by Jesus is important enough and worthy of mentioning, his fulfillment which the christians take as still present with them, though only promised to the disciples should be more worthy or worthy much as it being an headline. If the disciples who were the only one promised did not pen the details, how was it fulfilled and can anyone of later generation say they have it fulfilled in their own live? The deal is in the details and if there is no detail, it is obvious there is no deal. The deal is at least not on the occasion of pentecost.



The prayer of Jesus to the father in John 14'16 should not be wasted just because Jesus may not know the time. I say the prayer was not wasted because God will not make Jesus look like a false spirit if you are to take it literally, the only way to take it because it is explicit in its content. God knows when the time is and when the forever starts about the another comforter. It will be from when the another comforter fulfills his duty; recorded so that later generation after the fulfillment can see, read and learn from it so as to live our lives by it.



John 15:26 "But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, [even] the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me". The testimony must affirm that Jesus was the messiah and not an imposter as the jews made him to be, born of virgin and not through illegitimate sexual act as the jews level against his mother, prophet of God to the children of Israel and not a rabbi at best as the jews say finally he is given wisdom and reformation [laws and prophets and returning to it]. An entity that can't talk will not be able to fulfill any part of this. why would it be fulfilled on those who were the receiver from the mouth of Jesus? it sensible that it has to be fulfilled upon the future generation at the time when some of the truth about Jesus has been forgotten and or compromised to mean something different because of corruption has been accepted as the whole truth.



John 14:26 "But the Comforter, [which is] the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you." If an entity can not talk with audible voice no one will be able to write 100% down of what was said from him because nothing was heard even if one is a good lip reader and he is miming it to you. The duty of another comforter right here will be lost on speechless entity unless he writes it down himself. we dont have any record of anything written down by the listeners or the speechless another comforter of pentecost who was to speak and fulfill the above duty, instead of a hearing and speaking [messenger] were it to have been fulfilled on the day of pentecost.




John 16:7-14 "Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: Of sin, because they believe not on me; Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, [that] shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew [it] unto you."

Sinful things are not only known in the heart, but written down as in rule book. Deeds of righteousness eg [prayers and acceptable process and time and place] are also written down, even though it is natural for human being to incline to worship. The correct worship should be as commanded and it should not be made up. In short, looking at the above, it is impossible foe speechless being to fulfill it and not definitely not in an afternoon or an event or a day. To fulfill it requires a generation, a long time in the live of man if a mere getting to Canaan took 40 years from across the red sea and if 3 years of constant teach of Jesus mount to 'little faith', the big task of the another comforter is definitely not on pentecost. It will be a longer time and a slow process for the heart of believers to take it all in and process it and adjust to it. 23 years is more like it instead of an event which is part of a day, even if the another comforter was far superior than Jesus.





Muhammad in the Gospel of John - Answering Christianity
www.answering-christianity.com/prediction.htm‎

Back to Muhammad peace be upon him in the Bible.

Sorry, I did not come back to reply

Christianity teaches man is a spirit that has a soul and lives in a body

A man's spirit does not live forever. Once a man dies, his spirit goes back to God and his soul is judged while his body decays.

One characteristics of the Comforter/Holt Spirit was that He will live in us. Does Mohammed live in you?

The Holy Spirit bears witness with our spirits that we are the children of God. Does/ Can Mohammed bear witness with your spirit? Can a body bear witness with a spirit?

udatso: When muslims claim the bible is corrupted yet we quote verses from there..its because if I quote the quran as evidence to you, you wouldn't agree cos you don't believe quran to be the word of God.but if I quote from the bible to you, as a believer you must believe it since its your holy book..so let me give you some points why we believe the comforter the bible is speaking of is prophet muhammad(saw). Though, even though we belive the bible has been altered, there may still be some verses that can be considered as word of God.
Here are the points:
1.John and the Priests
In the Chapter of John, some Jewish
priests quizzed John the Baptist about three people who they were informed about in their scriptures. They asked him:
“Who are you?”
John confessed (he didn’t deny but
confessed), “I’m not the Christ.”
They asked him, “Then who are you? Are you Elijah?”
John said, “I’m not.”
“Are you THE Prophet?”
John answered, “No.” [John 1:19-21]
So they then asked him, “Why do you
baptize if you aren’t the Christ, nor
Elijah, nor the Prophet?” [John 1:25]
The priests were expecting three people as prophesied by their books, so they asked about Christ, Elijah and ‘the Prophet’. So who is ‘the Prophet’ they are referring to here?
This cannot be a reference to Jesus as he is the Christ. Looking at a copy of the Bible with cross- referencing, we find that the words ‘the
Prophet’ which occur in John 1:25 refer
to the prophecy of Deuteronomy 18:18 in the Old Testament, which also mentions a forthcoming Prophet.
According to Deuteronomy 18:18 God
speaks to the Prophet Moses and tells him that he will raise up a new Prophet who has certain clearly identifiable characteristics: I will raise up for them a Prophet like you from among
their brethren, and will put My words in
His mouth, and He shall speak to them all that I command Him. And it shall be that whoever will not hear My words, which He speaks in My name, I will require it of him.
[Deuteronomy 18:18-19]
In this prophecy God is telling Moses that he will raise a Prophet like him, who will be from ‘among their brethren’. Since these verses
are directed to Moses and the Jewish
People, the ‘brethren’ mentioned here are the brethren of the Jewish people.
Now Abraham, the forefather of the
Jewish nation had two sons, Ishmael and Isaac (Genesis 21). The children of Isaac are the cousins of the children of the Ishmael. The children of Isaac are the Jews and the children of Ishmael are the Arabs. ‘Brethren’ in the language of the Old Testament can refer to the Jews
themselves (Numbers 32:6), or to the ancestral cousins of the Jews such as the Arabs, Edomites and others (see Deuteronomy 2:4,8 for usage of
the word ‘brethren’).
So the Arabs are considered the brethren of the Jews.
2.Muhammad and Moses
Some people may claim that Jesus is the
new Prophet being referred to in
Deuteronomy18:18. However ‘the Prophet’ mentioned in John 1:25 can’t be Jesus because he is
described as a separate person to ‘the
Christ’. In addition to this, the verse
informs us that the Prophet will have the characteristic of being someone who is ‘like’ Moses. Jesus was very different to Moses, but what about Muhammad (pbuh)?

There is no doubt that Moses and
Muhammad (pbuh) are very similar.
Many historians who have studied the lives of Moses and Muhammad (pbuh) have remarked upon the many similarities between them. The late Reverend James L. Dow (1908-1977) who authored the Collins Gem Dictionary of the Bible wrote under the
entry of ‘Moses’: ‘’The only man in history who can be compared even remotely to him is
Mohammed.’’
All of the evidence so far shows
conclusively that Muhammad (pbuh) is the Prophet mentioned in John 1:25.
There are still many people who reject
Muhammad (pbuh) purely because he
was not Jewish (i.e not from the Children of Isaac) But we know that Prophets such as Noah, who are also mentioned in the Bible, weren’t Jewish either.

If the Bible is corrupt, how can you still quote part of it to prove something to me?
You are not sure the portions of the Bible corrupted, how can you be so sure that the verses you quoted are not also corrupted[i][/i]?

suredammy: @Udatso may Allah reward you and all muslims seeking to call to the true religion abundantly. I have noticed that when Christians are presented with valid and incontrovertible evidences during a debate, the tend to run away and abandon the argument, instead of examining the points raised critically perhaps God may guide them. The truth and evidence has been established against unbelievers in the Oneness of God. May Allah guide us all aright.

Run away? Lol!

Extremely long posts bore me

Ok, Let's assume that Mohammed is the comforter (which is false) according to the Bible meaning that you believe in the Bible.

1. Do you believe Jesus when He said 'He is the way, the truth and the life; No one cometh to the father except through me'

2. Do you believe God in John 3:16 'For God so loved the world that who so ever believeth in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life'

These two passages are also in the Bible

Let's continue from there

sellydion: OP, why are you rebelling against God,s word for harmonious living ?

Please can you also respond to these questions below:

[quote author=soul_glo]Honestly I don't think women who choose to stay bound understand what redemption is. A woman who is married to a man that bows humbly before Christ really has it all. The problem we find is that insecure men can only function if the woman is reduced to a lower position. Just the same way that black people were said to not be 100% human just to justify slavery. You know the old saying. Give the dog a bad name so you can hang it. I feel so liberated that I know Christ. No man walking in humility would need to control anything. There is nothing more sexy LOL than a man that know were he stands. What woman would not worship and cherish her man that loves her like Christ loves the Church. That man puts her before all else. No question. I thank God that my eyes are wide open to that.[/quote]Dear,

Your post sweet my belle.

God has really opened your eyes to see.

[quote author=Spotless_babe]ur wife is to blame Co's she should know ur likes n dislikes. she should have stopped d mum from doing dat until she confronts u as d man of d houz n father of d kids in question.[/quote]And how did you come to this conclusion

Did the OP specify the sex of spouse he was referring to?

The wife is sure a mind reader to know that the mom would give the grandkids tribal marks? So if a couple brought this case to you, you would have judged and killed the wife before knowing if it is the husband's mother or wife's mother or the circumstances surrounding the event?

What is that saying again.... women are their own worst enemies

baldman: @ Madam Debrief08: Thanks for taking time out to respond:

I am sure you will still cast aspersion on the church or a Pastor should your 'biblical' message of divorce based on adultery be preached on the altar. Though it appears the Old testament and indeed Jesus was talking strictly about a man putting his wife away and not the other way round. Indeed, there is no precedent laid in the bible or any biblical provision about a woman divorcing her husband ( pls I would be glad to know the verse). In any case the Bible says God hates divorce. For the few people who are mindful of the entire biblical injunctions rather than few convenient ones, it is really add to even consider divorce, moreover, you know what the Bible says about the options open to such person after divorce ( any further sexual relationship with another man is adultery)

Adultery is a sin against God, one's spouse and his own body and it is a sin that reflects the unregenerate state of mind of whoever is involved in it, if you think it is not too much for a woman to pray for her husband's salvation, then it is not too much to advice her to pray for his deliverance from the spirit of adultery unless she wants to do what God hates, divorce.

Adultery is a sad reality in Nigeria yet I don't see every woman divorcing their husbands because of it. You have no control over whether or not your husband commits adultery or not. If he does and you are not considering the divorce option, the best you can do is to pray for him , do your part to keep the home until he regains his sanity and make sure he uses protection in the meantime ( you have that right, at least). It is a difficult situation and the church has a duty to encourage you to pray, join you in prayers and inspire you to make your marriage work. I maintain that within the context described by the OP, the pastor said nothing wrong.

On whether same applies to when women commit adultery, I had say YES. God hates divorce! If you decide to separate from your spouse for good, then kiss love making goodbye and God is the happier for it, but if you are going to start thinking about that at some point while your enstranged spouse is still alive, you had better just stay put and ask God to help you save the soul of your man.

Seriously, I believe at least 8 out of every 10 married men have cheated at one point or the other in the course of their marriage and if in every case the women choose to take your advice then we should be having 80% divorce rate right now.

May God help us men to overcome the flesh, the plan of the devil is to destabilize the home and destroy the family system, we will be playing right into his hand by being unforgiving and drastic towards a spouse who committed adultery and he or she is deeply remorseful and willing to change.

@Bolded:

For what it's worth, I don't think I know of any man that divorced his wife based on adultery too

I am sure the scripture 'if any man be in Christ...' refers to only men or 'She who lives in pleasure is dead while she liveth' refers to only women.

Get a man/woman who has the same views you do and your home would be perfect.

Double post

I will answer those I can

Ray McBlue: My first official post is as follows;»»OH, this is gonna be good««


10 Questions for Religious folks.

Don't meant to be offensive or anything...just asking.

1. Why did God create the world in 6 days? Why not just instantly do it all in one day if he was all powerful?

Because He decided to. Like you rightly said, He is all powerful. Everything in life is a process. If He did in one day, you would probably ask why He did not create the world in one minute or one second.

Ray McBlue: 2. If God has a plan for us then why pray at all?

To establish principles. Your parents know you need something and will sometimes wait for you to ask. God does so many things for us without asking. How many people pray to wake up the next morning or the ability to breathe?

Ray McBlue: 3. Why did God punish Adam and Eve for doing wrong if they did not know the difference between right and wrong?

He punished them for disobedience. He had told Adam NOT to eat the fruit of the tree of knowledge

Ray McBlue: 4. Where did God come from?

God has no source. He is the beginning and the end, Alpha and Omega. That is why He is God

Ray McBlue: 5. How does a virgin get pregnant?

Luke 1: 37... With God, all things are possible

Ray McBlue: 6. Did God create sin?

No, He did not. Adam and Eve did

Ray McBlue: 7. Why are there so many religion with each one claiming to be the only true one?

Jesus said 'He is the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Him'. Jesus Christ is the only way to the Christian God

Ray McBlue: 8. Between Isaac and Ismael, which one was the legitimate son of Abraham?

Issac (Abraham and Sarah); Ishmael (Abraham and his maid Haggai)

Ray McBlue: 9. Why are there no chairs in mosques?

I have no idea; I am a Christian

Ray McBlue: 10. What status does Jesus hold in Islam. And what status does Mohammed hold in Christianity?

For the first part of your question, no idea. For the second part, Christianity doesn't recognize Mohammed

Ray McBlue: You don't need to answer all, just attempt one that you know.

I hope I was helpful,

Have a great day

mbourie: Hahahahahahaha....slavery? Habatically!!! In my residence none of the women are under slavery or is that cooking for your hubby or better yet, when asked by your hubby to keep quiet in a brawl between you-his wife- and a neighbour is now considered an act of slavery or deprivation of woman right?

I did not mention cooking or asking someone to keep quiet. I did not even mention husband - wife relationship.

I was talking on a general note.

nbright: @bolded... I still find it confusing why girls do boast with their wedding/introduction... I think the best thing is just to keep quiet... @Miss Ope, I pray that your life after marriage will be great...

Lol!

mbourie: @foleyx :this is how demonic teachings started in the west. first it was women liberation, then gay liberation I wonder what comes next.

Seriously the devil is at work...when most peeps on NL make mention of end time, I felt it was a joke but this thread has really open my eyes to prepare myself for the coming of Christ.
Right from the onset the aim of the devil is turn women against man; he divulges pseudo-doctrine to "the woman" that goes contrary to the words of God. He did it @ the garden of Eden, he has done it in the western world-with the present widespread divorce(were women compete with men), gay liberation, cloning of the perfect woman( in order to do away with the competing attitude of "the present woman," etc I ain't surprise when the bible said, " at the latter days 10 women will be begging to bear a man's name." God's words is seriously coming to pass! Why is it that the devil prefer using "the woman" to achieve all his aim? Or is that he prefers to turn "the woman" against God and man, by so doing man/woman will never be fruitful or multiply? I red that the anti-Christ is even a gay.....Ladies, I done encourage enslavery of women, but please be subtle in your absorption of the present norms of the western world....God bless Nigeria!!!

I agree the devil is at work

But to bound woman and put her in perpetual slavery right from Eve till date. Thank God for Jesus Christ.

Imagine how Adam's outlook on Eve changed from 'the bone of my bone' to 'the mother of all flesh' not even 'the mother of my kids'

Thank God for Christ's redemptive work on the cross

yorettyna: lol.. i m nt complaining.. i m married.. just knowing pple's opinions..

It's all good then

This question is all a result of thinking marriage is an act. The couple are actors. Everyone has a role. There's the oga and then the wife or the husband and then the madam.
Meanwhile, what God intended marriage to be was simply a man and woman who choose to live together because they compliment each other, they are good for each other and they love each other. (gay rights activists shoot me if you want. God created Adam and Eve!)
While couples need to put in as much or maybe even more effort than thy do at their jobs, the only cast-in-stone duties in marriage are that the woman bears the children and the man carries the burden of heading - not ruling the union. What this means is that mutual agreements need to be reached with opinions from both sides taken and the emotional thinking of the woman be balanced out by the rational thinking of the man (feminists will shoot me down on this one too. But like it or not, this is a generalisation that is true). But nO man has the right to ALLOW or INSTRUCT his wifeto do whatever. He can only suggest and the wife should always lovingly consider. Respect is a mutual thing.

That said, will I ALLOW my wife look hot and sexy and desireable and drop dead gorgeous and the envy of all women around and the desire of all men in town? Duh!!!

Why do you think they will shoot you down?

I really agree with your post.

As for the emotional/rational thinking, I do not believe a certain gender is created with a particular type, I think it's upbringing.

I thought I was the only one who did not understand marriage is work, endurance etc. mantra

carr101: Thanks a lot for this input.
Much appretiated

You are welcome

Sorry for the epistle

I had a reply in mind but seeing that your parents marriage prompted this thread, I reconsidered.

It depends on the kind relationship your parents had before they married. From the reaction on the thread, you see that it's not normal.

Remember that your background does not determine where you will be in life. Look out for the things you don't like in your parents marriage and pray that God gives you a man that doesn't exhibit all those characteristics. Also try to improve yourself in areas you think will be a problem in future.

It is well with you
