| These Hard Economic Times
I keep asking myself, "Has the world gone crazy?" What are people talking about when they say "these hard economic times?" I am so confused because I hear so many people say these are such hard economic times but, at the same time, what I see happening with my own eyes and hearing with my ears is a totally different story. Let me give you some examples what I mean. [ read full story ] | | The New Era of Responsibility I have been to the Promised Land.....

| Forum Question: Abandoning Religion | | I am still quite young, but I knew that my religion was not for me. I had been forced to attend sporadically since birth, but it was quite strict. It is called the Old Apolostic Lutheran Church. It was strict. No TV. No makeup. Nothing. You were allowed to read. No music. It was suggested that you not play sports or do anything with people from the "world"-aka, people who did not go to church.
Yet people who go there are such zealots and love it! Either way, my question, I suppose is, I still do believe in God, of some sort, and being spirtual is a part of me (though very private). But I have yet to feel as though I should attend another church. Do you suppose that I will at some point or do you think that I'll continue just being spirtual on my own?
It's confusing for me, but I suppose I don't worry about it too much. [ read more ] | | | CONTRIBUTING WRITERS:
