    No worries

    This site is about praising Jesus. If you have any questions try the search function first but we are here to help anyone learn the true message of Jesus.

    I miss read that you are from Sweden but one only has so long to edit posts but I really don't get why you are trying to pick a fight with me

    I did not ask about any suicide rates: I stated what is factually accurate.

    What facts did I get wrong? You do know this is called dissembling your argument, don't you?

    Please stay on topic.

    What are you talking about? I did not say the suicide rates of Sweden were higher than the US.

    I pointed out that suicide is greater in non religious populations than decent God fearing ones.

    Maybe if you wound in that aggression of yours you might be able to hold a civil conversation

    Normally I'd ask you if you were married yet, 'cause at 23, you're getting a little long in the tooth. I'm not too concerned, however. It's not like you're a good, Christian woman squandering your prime reproductive years.

    Heck, one less atheist baby today means one less Democrat voter eighteen years from now.
    According to the rules you are supposed to introduce yourself so I did.


    I am not married at the moment no. And I would never raise my children to be atheists. They would be free to chose there own belives and I would love them no matter what they belive in.

    Thank you for sharing that with us. I suppose there is no point in asking you what your favorite Bible (KJV1611) verse is or what church you attend.

    Perhaps you would like to tell us how your socialist workers paradise led you to abandon your faith in Jesus. Tell us how your socialist government run schools told you what books to read, what kind of condoms you can buy and how you learned to trust your socialist government leaders to engage in wanton fornication, free abortion and nanny state meddling in the free market.
    I don't think I've read that exact bible even though I've read verses in the bible that I liked.

    I'm not sure if you are serious about your questions but I'm willing to answer them.
    1. In school we went to church a lot and priests came from church a lot to talk to us, so I was more led in the direction to belive in God, and I wish I could.
    2. Well, we have laws describing what to learn in school, other than that you can take extra classes or just go to the library to read what ever you want.
    3. What condoms to buy? Seriously? Well.. The same as you have + some other brands. Just google and I'm sure you can find a Swedish site that can give you a better answer than I can.
    4. The do not in any way support the current leaders in Sweden. I voted for an other party. When talking about having sex with someone you're not married to I don't see the problem. If both (or all) are in on it, just have fun.

    Since I don't belive in God, I can't hate him. That makes no sense..

    I do belive in evolution yes. And I live Finland.

    Of course religion isn't illeagal here.. Where did you get that from? You are free to belive in what ever you want.

    I have read the bible several times yes. And to this day I don't know if my parents belive in God. I've never asked them.

    I did belive in God when I was younger.

    Brother, I'm fairly certain that Christianity is actually prohibited by law in her native Finland.

    Or what passes for "law" with the eskimos.
