Looks like I checked in here just in time to end the show for the night... or in any even to respond to your non-question.

In #237, one question asked was, "And WHY has desiring to live a life of decent moral quality, the way that God dictates in the bible, become so unpopular nowdays, among CHRISTIANS and CONSERVATIVES??"

I was responding to that, basically by noting that people just don't believe they'll ever be called to judgement any more -by society certainly, and apparently, even by God.

Well, since I was the one who asked that question, and the few answers I got basically boiled down to "my views are too old fashioned and not in tune with things today"--I must reply:::

SO BE IT!!!

If people in general(including women) can't accept the fact that I DO live by a moral code , and do NOT see all that many "grey areas" in life, regarding, things like sex, abortion, homosexuality, religious freedom, etc-- then I guess it is not my problem!!

God has been REALLY moving in my life recently, in the financial department. I am now making MORE money than I ever have, on a consistent basis. He has NOT moved much in the social aspects, however. But I am NOT worried about that part of my life anymore!!

Better to stand alone, and do things God's way, than be in a big group and accepted, because I "sold out".. NOT ME!!

Allow me to elaborate here and mention that I don't think that morality in this context needs to be "popular". In fact, for it to be accepted by "society" would be very counterproductive. Sort of an "in the world but not of the world" kind of principle..

If I hadn't been up since before 0Dark30 and wasn't so tired now, I would actually try to engage in what could almost be called a thought provoking response.

I was meaning your moniker and haven't read all of the posts yet tonight.

In fact, tonight has been a three eye blink and it's gone sort of thing.
