...I know I've said this before, but last July, I did ask God to guide me to a better job to help me in my economic funk and a week or two later, He delivered ... So why did you wait so long to ask him. If that is how things work I would think you would be asking him everyday. "..so I think He will do so in my love life but it will have to happen on His timescale." Maybe... or maybe less talk about batman and cartoons. Try to come off as a little more normal. If you are a virgin fine, but don't go telling the world about it as if it some sort of badge of honor. So you are holding off on sex until marriage... what if you never get married? You guys will not know what you are missing. Do you really think that you are going to find a 40 year old virgin for a wife?

Maybe it's none of your business what they choose to do with their lives. He wasn't bragging, he was confessing to try and give support to Rca.

That's NOT how things "work." Prayer is not something where you just ask God for whatever and He delivers. It's not a free ride. It's about a total sacrifice of self in favor of serving Him. It's about a perfect yielding to His divine plan and to the Blood He shed for man's salvation.

Try to come off as a little more normal.

There's no such thing as "normal." It's all relative.

Here we really find the problem. You view sexuality as a self-gratification; a temporary pleasure. We view it as a full expression of love: a Holy union of flesh and spirit between man and wife. It is too sacred to us to be short-changed for self-gratifying.

Not only that, but in our viewpoint, the Bible condemns sex before marriage. It is fornication, a sin of the flesh. Missing out on God's perfect plan for eternal salvation is not worth it. Hell is not worth all the pleasure in the world. I would rather be a virgin my entire life than spend eternity in Hell. Think about ETERNITY for a minute. It never ends. You are there FOREVER. You will NEVER get out! EVER!!

I'm sure there are plenty out there who are just as lonely as us. It's just a matter of when God is ready for us to meet.

It's not about finding a bunch of virgins. It's about finding a person God has planned for us.

What I don't understand about you is why you're so obsessed with the fact that we are virgins who have decided to abstain until marriage. Get over it.

A. It's none of your business what we do.
B. Isn't whether or not someone's a virgin arbitrary? Who cares? It goes back to the old argument of homosexuals categorizing themselves by a sexual orientation. They are gay first. Conservatives tend to argue that whether or not someone is gay is not a way to categorize themselves, and they should keep it in the bedroom.

It's the same thing with virginity. Who cares? That is not how you define a human being. They are not "40 year-old virgins," they are 40 year-olds who happen to be virgins.

Hey, Ill leave it up to God and His plan. I am confident in Him. I know there are times it may take people a while to come to Him but He will accept you and guide you if you'll let Him, it is never too late. I'm proud of who I am. I know maybe I'll never find a virgin, but I don't care as long as she is open with me and lives a good, clean life. I do believe in redemption with the help of God, as Jesus said,"he without sin, cast the first stone" to the crowd who was about to stone a prostitute. After that, he said to her, "go and sin no more." As long as she is of good, moral character, loves me for who I am, is family mind and loves God, I wouldn't care if she was a virgin or a prostitute in the past as long as she is redeemed as the case may be.

So go easy on the finger pointing, sooner or later, you will get four or five pointed back at you.

That reminds me, I got to watch a tape of Aqua Teen Hunger Force. B-P
