One final note, I’d like to point out is that there are some religious clichés that kind of fall flat on my ears and I wonder if anyone agrees with this? Often times you’ll read in a profile or hear someone say, that they excepted Jesus into their heart or they invited Jesus into their heart or something like that. Keep in mind that just because someone says the sinners prayer, that doesn’t make them a Christian. It’s not good enough to have Jesus in your heart. You have to love Jesus with all your heart, mind, soul and strength, so when I see that someone has Jesus in their heart I don’t see that they are 100% a part of Jesus. When Jesus is in YOU he’s in your life 100% and he’s never not in your life. I don’t think it’s technically correct to say you have a relationship with Jesus, I think you are a part of Jesus you are part of the body of Christ and just saying the sinners prayer is a terrible tradition started back with Billy Sunday I think, and just saying the sinners prayer doesn’t make you a Christian. God himself says that if you love me, you’ll keep my Commandments, so you have to keep reading and follow the rest of the commandments that are in the New Testament such as loving your neighbor as yourself and many others. We should always desire what God desires, God’s desires become our desires. If God wants a spouse for you, then ask God if a particular person is the person that you should marry. God will answer your prayer. Most people don’t ask God questions when they pray.

There are a lot of important little things that you can’t see through a computer screen and you can’t hear from someone’s voice. If someone is contemplating a long distance relationship, it should be relatively short. The best thing is to meet the person, face-to-face inside of a period of 30 to 60 days. Oftentimes when a couple meets, one or the other find a particular defect or flaw and sometimes the chemistry just isn’t there. Sometimes one person is in love with the other person and the chemistry is not going both ways. My personal opinion is from experience, it’s rather foolish to think that you can maintain a healthy, romantic relationship for a long period of time over a computer screen or on a telephone. You should always try to meet in 30 to 60 days minimum. And even after you do meet, then everyone is on their best behavior and they’re hiding their flaws. You don’t really get to know a person until you’ve been with them for at least 90 days or longer sometimes six months before one of the other lets their guard down, and the truth comes out. Sadly to say in the old days thousands of years ago, a child’s parents would pick out their spouse for them, and you were stuck with that spouse for the rest of your life, but that’s probably why the Bible commands the husbands to love their wives because it’s not always a natural thing to do it. Oddly enough there’s no commandment in the Bible for the wives to love their husbands. They’re only told to respect their husbands. A true Christian 100% perfect Christian, which I am not, could be in a successful marriage and not have to have the goosebumps and the romantic “in love feeling” present at all times. It’s great if it is there and it’s great if you can sustain it and build on it, but it doesn’t necessarily have to be there.

Several of our major American food corporations have been using a preservative that is also a major endocrine disruptor. This particular product can obviously cause problems with development hormonally, and with the crazy left liberal culture that we have now many people, especially young parents don’t understand the proper way to raise little boys and little girls on top of that we have a large majority of children are raised in single-parent homes and or, are victims of abuse and neglect of some kind. This is where we get most of our issues with sexual identity disorder, and same sex attraction. I don’t see that it’s very wise to put a link on a Christian dating website that shows same sex couples in a romantic relationship. What I see are two people with mental health disorders. sadly to say we need to be mindful of the disgusting left liberal agenda that they have put on our American culture with trying to convince everyone that same-sex attraction is normal and acceptable.
