| I have unchecked anger, too, and, at 30, still blow up at my parents and even throw tantrums. especially if things aren't going my way. I freak the f**k out. I have been heard yelling at the top of my lungs by the neighbors and mailman. I have hit walls, punch my dad, smacked him, threatened him, ev... |

| I used to do the same thing - hide in the stalls in the bathroom. lock the door and sit indian style on the toilet and hoped to be invisible. I did that from junior high on. sometimes I would leave the school at lunch and go smoke. sometimes I would hide in the magazine stacks of the library. I had ... |

I quite like to think of it as a freedom from the trappings of this god character you speak of. |

kinda true. I don't care, but then again I am depressed, so that is probably a manifestation of that. |

| you have to think of it as a gift. I don't do well with this line of thinking. I think it is my money, so if I lend it to you, you should give it back. I lent 50 dollars to this woman in august or september of last year. she comes up with excuse after excuse as to why she doesn't have it for me to ... |

| again, I ask why, if the OT law is cast aside, why is paul spouting off condemnations of homosexuals? and why, then, is reverence surrounding ten commandments found in the OT? It's my understanding that the NT verses that are often taken to condemn homosexuality are not unambiguous. They do clearly... |

| Many do not understand that the Old Testament is the old covenant, and The New Testament is the new covenant. When someone brings up something from the Old Testament and tries to apply it to today, you might as well and try to apply 17th century English law to modern day America. If you don't want ... |

| @CaptainTrips222: The article asserts that Christians are still under the Old Covenant, when it has quite clearly been superseded. Superseding the Old Covenant was most of the point of the New Covenant, not some obscure issue. It's like saying that because we had an amendment to the U.S. constituti... |

| Christianity means whatever any individual "Christian" wants it to mean at the moment. This is called "Situational Doctrine". It means that if the "Christian" can find a Bible verse that speaks against something that he or she doesn't like, then he or she will swear that it is foundational doctrine... |
