I joined this forum just so I could let you guys know that I'm asexual and it's as much a lifestyle choice as heterosexuality (ie. it's not).
Thanks for this piece of (unwanted) information.
Do you consider yourself a Christian? If you do, then you are as deluded as Princess Loser.
If oyu do not consider yourself a Christian, then goodbye, please do not shut the door too hard.
Just a quick question: when you say that being asexual is not a lifestyle choice, it is because you are so ugly that no one wants to copulate with you? So it is not your choice, but the choice of everyone else?
That is very sad, but nevertheless let me tell you that you have to broader your hunt: in Sout Mexico you will find women so ugly that even you will seem like a Kirk Cameron to them.

I'm one of those people who believes in the possibility that the Christian God does exist but is not a member of Christianity. As for my asexuality, that's not because people don't want to have sex with me (I know a few people who do), but I don't want to have sex with anybody. I also don't blame you guys for how you think etc, and I could probably learn a lot from you guys because I am interested in learning about religion (even if I don't agree with what's written).
Now, before you make any assumption as to what I do identify as, it's kinda obvious in my username, as I am an Agnostic Theist. I also have a Bible, and I will admit that Atheists can be ignorant about Jesus because there is proof that he did actually exist. Not just that, but I adore religious music, and even if you turn out to hate me, that's okay, as I'll still have enough love in my heart for you.
1st Note: The Bible I have is a King James, but I can't read it, as it belonged to a family member that died years ago, and I don't want to damage the pages. What I do find myself doing, however, is listening to the bible online, and I think that everybody should do it (even Atheists).
2nd Note: Being asexual doesn't mean I'm not attracted to people (I do experience romantic attraction).

We do not hate you, we love you. So much, that we have to warn you: as the Bible you listen is telling you several times, you are going to Hell. Don't get mad at us, it is God who created you and He has set the conditions for you to burn in hell forever.
But it is never too late. If you follow the Bible 100% from now on, you can be in Heaven too. Unless you have blasphemed against the Holy Ghost, of course.
So you will have to have sex with people (yes, you don't feel attraction. I also do not feel sexual attraction with my wife, and still we have procreation sex; that is not an excuse) The good news are: you don't have too like it - it is actually better that you don't- and you only have to do it in order to procreate. Having sex for fun is out of the table.
You also will have to follow some other rules, like hating a lot of people (the Jebusites, for example; please don't tell me that you like the Jebusites!) And as you are not a homo, according to you, you will be not so worried about what happens in the Book of Leviticus with them.
The rewards of becoming Christian are many. Did you know that you can pee living water, if you become a Christian?:
John 7:38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
Yes! forget about common pee. Your Christian pee is super-pee!
I will be praying for you.

Brother Agnosticaliencat,
Welcome! I celebrate your asexuality and I hope that this is a situation that brings you joy as you do not have to concern yourself with the underpinnings that come along with sexual behavior.
I tolerate all people as I believe we should. When I relinquished my practice of Judaism, I felt a new freedom within my soul that was indescribable. Then I accepted Jesus and found that wasn't enough, so I dabbled in Rastafarianism. I wasn't very fulfilled with that, although I have some very good friends who are Rastafarian. Now I am looking at new age and eastern religions. I just purchased a book about our own deity, called "god is me and you," which has a forward by Shirley Maclaine. It is quite good so far.
Again, welcome to the forums; I hope you enjoy your stay.
I have worked with children before, and I can tell you that being a parent is definitely not for me. I don't hate children (never have), but I'm not going to even think about having children, as I'm just not cut out physically and mentally for stuff like that (got physical issues which would only get worse if I put my body under more strain than it is now). I also think that people who want children should look into the other option ie. adoption, as there are loads of children who don't have loving families, or have families that can't support them through whatever means.
And before you folks say that I was cursed to have physical issues because of my asexuality, I will mention one thing, as I was born with my physical issues, but I didn't know about my asexuality until a couple of years ago.

But Jesus did! Praise Him! He knew you would grow up to rebel against Him and He cared enough to pre-smite you for your insolence! This is Good News, dear! It means He's taken a liking to you and wants you to come to Him! It means He is treating you like a beloved child and is chastising you for your own good (Proverbs 13:24)! Why don't you take a chance and throw your life into His Hands, confess your sins, follow His commands, get married, be blessed with many children, and raise them to take dominion o'er all the earth (Genesis 1:28)!
Glory!
Hello, my name is Mary. I hope to fellowship with you! That is, unless you don't listen to church authority (Deuteronomy 17:12); are a witch (Exodus 22:17); are a homosexual (Leviticus 20:13; Romans 1:24-32); or fortuneteller (Leviticus 20:27) or a snotty kid who hits their dad (Exodus 21:15); or curses their parents (Proverbs 20:20; Leviticus 20:9); an adulterer (Leviticus 20:10); a non-Christian (Exodus 22:19; Deuteronomy 13:7-12; Deuteronomy 17:2-5;Romans 1:24-32); an atheist (2 Chronicles 15:12-13); or false prophet (Zechariah 13:3); from the town of one who worships another, false god (Deuteronomy 13:13-19); were a non-virgin bride (Deuteronomy 22:20-21); or blasphemer (Leviticus 24:10-16), as God calls for your execution and will no doubt send you to Hell, and I have no interest developing a friendship with the Spiritually Walking Dead.
That's actually a tricky subject, as I've never had a rebellious attitude towards anybody. As for my issues, yes, there are a few curses (such as the fact that my issues are constantly painful), but they are also blessings because I know what my limitations are and I can use them to my advantage. I'm also receiving help for my issues, and the only thing I'm angry about is the fact that my issues cost me the chance to become a black belt at Tae Kwon-Do.
And believe it or not, I do actually talk to supreme beings in my dreams, and they (God included) helped me get through having an MRI scan done last year. I also got a pastor's blessing when I was younger, and I also had a bad nail infection that lasted for years which has now completely cleared up.

Hello Mr. or Miss of unknown name who definitely is not an agnostic!
You seem to have trouble understanding some terms. Agnostic is a person who does not know and does not care whether any deity exists or not, and therefore definitely does not "believe in the possibility that the Christian God does exist."
You are not a theist, either, because a theist believes in some sort of a Creator but does not believe in any specific deity, such as the Christian God. I mean, why this specific preference? Based on His record, Christian God is a much more sadistic deity than, for example, Andean Pacha Mama. Why would you prefer to believe in a psychopathic deity having a choice of believing in less psychopathic ones?
Hence, you are not an agnostic, you are not a theist, and based on your preference for the Christian God among the millions of other choices, that would make you a non-denominational Christian.
I also have a Bible, and I will admit that Atheists can be ignorant about Jesus because there is proof that he did actually exist.
Ooh? Such as?
I'm all ears!
Not just that, but I adore religious music,
I agree 100%. If you haven't heard Orthodox monks you haven't heard real music.

OK, now you have me seriously worried. Have you talked to a psychiatrist about that? They have some really good medication for schizophrenia these days, you know.

Schizophrenia is an invention of secular medicine, which God hates. This Agnes person has been in contact with DEMONS!!!!!
^ The only medication I take is iron supplements because I was cursed with Anaemia.
^^ And yes, I have listened to Gregorian chants (if that's what you're on about). I am 100% Agnostic Theist, and the blessing happened when I was a child (before I realised that I was an Agnostic Theist).

I prefer the Orthodox over the Western (Gregorian) ones.
I am 100% Agnostic Theist,
As I have explained earlier, you are 0% agnostic and 0% theist. Both of which are spelled without capitalization in English language.
You are a non-denominational Christian due to your insistence that is is the Christian God who is real and not some of the few million deities of other religions.
and the blessing happened when I was a child (before I realised that I was an Agnostic Theist).
If you defined yourself as an agnostic after receiving an alleged supernatural blessing, you'd begin to question the supernatural nature of that event.
Please use words according to the commonly agreed upon definition in order to not sound nonsensical. Example: what would you think of me if I said, after eating a teaspoon of salt: "I really like the sweet flavor of salt!"
You'd probably think that I'm confused or a foreigner who does not understand the meaning of simple words.
Well, by defining yourself as and agnostic and a theist and then proceeding to explain your experiences with the Christian deity you sound like a confused, English as a second language speaker.
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
I am 100% Agnostic Theist, and I have actually researched the term and the definition is in line with my beliefs. I am not Atheist (which is obviously what you think I am), and I became an Agnostic Theist after realising that my beliefs were not the same as those of my peers.
As for my asexuality, that came about after I realised that I wasn't like my peers when it came to developing crushes etc. It also enables me to spend all of my time focusing on my hobbies, and my idea of pleasure is going out with my friends and listening to good music (music also being one of my hobbies and something that I hope to do full-time at some point in the future).

We already established that's not you because you seem to be strongly inclined towards belief in the Christian god, and not any other god or goddess.

While a theist cannot also be agnostic, as an "agnostic theist" is an oxymoron, a theist also does not specify god of which religion is the correct one; again, you do not fit that description.
I am not Atheist (which is obviously what you think I am),
When did I say that?! Let me repeat for the third time: you're a non-denominational Christian.
So, what does make you believe in such a sadistic God as the Christian one? I'm asking because I'm struggling with my own faith. If He is real then I'm going to burn in Hell forever for having my doubts... On the other hand, I just cannot force myself to believe in such a cruel, hateful, psychopathic deity!...
