A monopoly

Debate comes when people say they "know" God does these things without anything type of proof that we as humans tend to look for as evidence in everything else we do in our lives. I find it a big ungodly for someone who "knows" God to then judge someone else's viewpoint as being dogmatic and prideful. The debate and strife comes more from someone who is JUST as fallible in their own life as myself trying to interpret the Bible to suit their own human needs.

This country used the Bible as a way to justify the slaughter of one group and the enslavement of another. We have a federal government headed by a simpleton who justifies killing on one hand (Iraqi War) and then condemns it (stem cell research, abortion) on the other. Religion is the human way of trying to take God's will and use it to empower themselves. It's a way to scare people into line, nothing more, nothing less. You can believe in God without being religious (like myself).

Well put. Just very hard to be very secure without being cocky when you are the person doing ALL the pursuing. As Chris Rock says, "It's easy for women to say no, you've been gettin' offered sex since you were 13 years old" LMAO. To the original poster, nice doesn't equal simple. Be a challenge man. I'm no Dr. Phil...but I'll state the obvious like he does anyway: step away and figure out WHAT you are first. Once you do that, it's a matter of mastering it. That way, you don't have to be a scuzzy lying sack of **** like most of these guys that women TALK about are. You can still be nice...you just have to make your version of nice interesting. I should've majored in something else...

Hey... Didn't I see your name in the dictionary under "Kablaam"?

or my personal fave..."Damn girl, you look so good, you make me wanna get ANOTHER JOB! WITH BENEFITS!!!"

Love the integrity. Don't get that enough. To answer the OP...it's like Louis Armstrong said about New Orleans. He said it was a city 'that's got that thing'. When they asked Louis what that thing was, he said "If you have to ask, you'll never know". In a NUTSHELL...that's your answer to the question posed.

I always say check the sources before you worry about the response. Personally, I think it's just an indicator of the PERSON'S (because there are women who won't date a single father like myself) preference. Most guys think that the child or children will get in the way of having quality time with a woman. So if they don't have to, the feeling is 'Why should I?'. Personally, I think it's the WOMAN for me that dictates anything. A good woman will have her stuff in order, so kids won't be an issue.
