silveysim @silveysim (337) • United States 3 Feb 07

I want to know why marriage's break off sooooo soon these days. I read an article state the 5 deadly killers...but these are quite obvious: 1). Lack of the 3 letter word done in bed 2). Seeing the In-Laws too much 3). Not doing...

sfdocnpi None of those things should affect a marriage adversely. Marriage is not only a committment to each other, but it is a promise to God that to stay together until death. It isn't supposed to be easy to stay married. It requires unconditional love, compromise...

Should I Quit School?

Celestialvie @Celestialvie (679) • United States 2 Feb 07

I've been thinking of quitting school. I just feel like a total failure for staying. I'm not happy anymore. Nothing about school excites me anymore. I know I'm lucky that my parents can send me to college, but I don't really want...

sfdocnpi I think you only live once. Rarely do young people of college age really know what they want to do with their lives and I don't see anything wrong with taking a few years off after high school, enjoying life, working and trying to figure out which direction...

Do you go to church every Sunday? Or at least once a week?

smints8985 @smints8985 (1594) • United States 31 Jan 07

I'm just curious on how much people still see to it that they go to church and hear mass or hear the pastor preach every Sunday. Or any day of the day, depends on what day the service is held in your church. I am continously...

sfdocnpi I am very devout in my Christian beliefs. I spend a lot of time in prayer in the mornings, throughout the day and in the evenings before I go to sleep and in fellowship with like minded people. But - I don't go to church. Organized religion is a turn off to...

Saying THANK YOU...how important?

hottie0728 @hottie0728 (1732) • United States 29 Jan 07

Sometimes in our busy lives, we often forget how to appreciate what we have. We often forget how to say thank you on receiving grace, service given by someone or any small favors. How important is saying Thank you? I know I...

sfdocnpi I think for most of us if we count our blessings everyday and give thanks for them, we will usually come to realize life isn't so bad after all. Being thankful for the good things in life and what we already have, helps us pass through the dark times more...

sfdocnpi I've been fortunate in my life. Other than getting malaria and dengue fever, I've been blessed with good health most of my life. I'm not a health nut either. I try to eat healthy, but then again I do cheat once in awhile - hey, I love my mexican food but I...

Would you fight back when being mugged?

momus8 @momus8 (92) 20 Jan 07

Imagine yourself, coming back home late at night on the train with the carriage empty. Three shady guys get on. After a while they walk up to you and ask for your money. You refuse and they become more violent. You have no idea...

sfdocnpi I think that one of the first things I was taught in martial arts was to avoid situations and places if possible where a confrontation of any kind could occur. However, after several years of hard practice in the martial arts,a person develops a sense of...

sfdocnpi I'm a hybrid, lol. I started studying Isshinryu Karate in 1964, but we moved around a lot because of my Dad's job and moved to a place where I couldn't find an isshinryu instructor in 1966, so I started taking Tang Soo Do until 1972. At that time, I was in...

Do you believe in the power of prayer?

hockeygal4ever @hockeygal4ever (10021) • United States 30 Jan 07

I can without a doubt answer yes. I've been privy to its powers and while sometimes I've doubted God listened, I later realized just because I ask doesn't mean he provides. God is not "Santa Claus"... someone to go to and...

sfdocnpi I most definitely believe in the power of prayer. However, prayer is often misunderstood. Prayer is not something that is offered to God to get God to do our own will. Prayer is offered to God as a tool that empowers us to accept God's will.

sfdocnpi I'm a Christian who served 20 years in the Army. Throughout the bible there are many examples of how God's chosen people had to go to war to serve God by protecting his people and their land or even to destroy "enemies" of God. If you don't feel like you...
