It seems that mine and your attitude, as well as that of a couple of younger male posters(you know who I at speaking of), it seems that our attitude is in the sheer minority here. It would seem logical to me, that once a person had made the committment to follow Christ, that they should NOT expect to be able to just continue the same, sin-filled lifestyle of old. But then, posters tell me I am out of touch, holier-than-thou, a goody-goody, and a loser, and a wuss. So, for some unfathomable reason, the attitude that you should try to live as decent and honestly as possible, seems to be out of step with reality, according to some.
I hate this "twilignt Zone" world we live in today.
I was on another thread, talking about missile defense, The Safeguard system, the general ignorance of the threat ICBM'S pose, MARV's and MIRVS, and such. Something I actually know a little bit about. Easier to understand than the modern, backwards-morality society we live in today.

I know. B-( Just because we are not "hip" we are "squares." Hey, I'd rather live my life as close to God, Christ and the right path as well as I can even if I get a lot of guff for it. Jesus took a lot of crap in His time as well and look what He went through. I figure if He could take such a burden for all of us and more well I figure I could take some guff that comes my way and ask for His help in dealing with it. Its a tough world out there.
Basically, I just want a woman to share my life and the rest of it with, be a good wife and mother, able to work out problems together, and one that, as Bill O'Reilly would say, "looking out for me" and I look out for her. The past, well, as I said earlier, I believe in repentence and redemption so I don't care as long as she is truthful with me so if a skeleton comes walking out of the closet, we can deal with it instead of her (or me) suffering alone. Suffering alone, I think that's one of the worst mental torments out there barring capture by an enemy and gong through torture. I have lots of thoughts on that, I'll have to collect them and wrote more on them.
AS to Audio Karma, was on it one night and it went down for maintenance. Bummer, was on a roll too. B-)

You and me both. Too many problems, getting signals crossed, don't know what to do, etc. Give me a time travelling DeLorean or Steve Gibb's (he was on Art Bell/George Noory) time machine although in the case of the latter, wrapping an electrical coil around my head, well, I think I'll pass. B-P B-) I've heard a story of where one guy in the late 1970's took two bulk erasers for reel-to-reel tapes and placed one on each side of the head for a buzz but he ended up becoming psychotic. Dunno how true it is but I ain't gonna test it. B-) There is so much about electromagnatism that we don't quite understand.

BTW, I do have an article on an early SDI system in a 1968 Popular Science magazine except then it wasn't called "Star Wars" but "McNamara's Shield." It is the Safeguard system you mentione along with the Sprint and Spartan missiles. I got to scan that in sometime. As to the backwards society, I think in many cases we are going backwards. Sure we might have the world at our fingertips with our Pentium II's, III's and IV's but morally and spiritually, we are drifting backwards. Hopefully it will be a cycle and we will see some sort of religious revival but it will take a major cataclysm to do that.
As to women, I'll just let God take control on this one and let Him do the leading. Got to hit the sack, I'm having a busy week at work. B-)
