    The only time I'd stay in a sexless marriage is if we had children we were raising. I wouldn't divorce the mother of my children over sex, but the idea that I'm going to remain sexless because my wife doesn't want to have sex with me isn't something I'm willing to subscribe to. You can't require me to provide for you, require monogamy and think you have no obligation to try to meet my sexual needs because, reasons. I'd rather be single or in a serial monogamy situation.

    I read through the comments to see if anyone else was discussing what this bishop was exemplifying. The love and forgiveness of Christ, the God he serves. The God who taught that if we forgive others their transgressions, Our Father in Heaven will also forgive ours. And who also taught that it is not enough to forgive seven times, but seventy times 7. Because He is a loving and forgiving God who will do the same for us. Try it. Repent and ask for forgiveness. For the very worst thing you have ever done, even for that which you have not forgiven yourself. And even for the smallest things. Bear your mistakes and ask forgiveness from the Loving Lord Jesus Christ. Just, ask right now for forgiveness, with a repentant heart, and see just what happens. Nobody has to know. Just do it and see. Glory to God for the healing that comes with forgiveness 🙏 May you receive His mercy, His love and His salvation. May His Holy Spirit come and dwell in you so that you may bear His fruits of LOVE, JOY, PEACE, FORGIVENESS, HOPE, THANKFULLNESS, GOODNESS, GLADNESS, GENTLENESS AND SELF-CONTROL ❤

    An assessment of Jake Adelstein by the world's best yakuza experts. "Not only do they misrepresent the yakuza, they make themselves into the heroes of crime novels and start telling the world that they are yakuza experts. It is tedious, time-consuming, and frequently causes trouble. I have learned the hard way that my name and work are often used to enhance the credibility of this work."

    A feminist learns that her underlying assumptions are essentially Christian in origin, and when you overturn that religious foundation, cultures who don’t share your assumptions will undermine your precious “progress”. Furthermore, her worldview is no less totalizing than Islamic fundemanetlism, as she is essentially calling for greater feminist advocacy in non-Western cultures. This is nothing short of imperialism, and a shaky one at that, since feminism has no foundation for “rights” or “equality” beyond shared oppression. You can’t build positive concepts on negations.

    I got to help put on and play support for a couple of shows with Killdozer, in England, probably 87 and 88, and it's true that we were kind of surprised by what normal, nice guys they were. Not that we expected them to be monsters necessarily, being kind of of a similar scene ourselves, but all the same we didn't really expect mild-mannered school teachers. Of course, in the end, it was only natural that they were intelligent, but all the same 'interestingly-humoured'.

    It’s sad to read some of these comments and see there are still people who refuse to understand the suffering involved in being the “higher sex drive” person in a relationship….especially when the other person claims to care about you and will imply (or outright say) that there’s something burdensome about being sexual with you.
