I hope you open your heart to him and receive his forgiveness and salvation. With his love and peace in your heart your worries will subside. He will guide you and give you answers. He will provide a path. Why not give him a try. He works when the world fails you. He is there when the world abandons you. He is your friend when no friend can be found. He listens and cares and wants to help you. Jesus grant him this. Amen. † Equitable Prayer Warrior † I will pray that God makes the resources available for you to find the answers to your doubts and worries.

I think they just like to say it's red when it's blue.

I don't even believe in "The Bible", but it seemed wierd that it was referenced in a way that lead to masturbation.. Good literary usage..the masturbation just takes a little away from it, in my opinion. Also..not everyone does believe in "The Bible"; those who don't know the story might not understand the literary usage...even though it's not a bad one. EDIT: In my opinion...forget about "the wider audience" and keep the "x-rated words". If the story the words are used in, is good, which it seems to be, you'll find an audience. Write the story in whatever way you relate to it best. I forget who the quote is from, but.. "The only writers who write about all people and times, are those who write about thier people and time." ...something like that.. I'm not looking it up now, but I think you're smart enough to get the point. Stay true to yourself, and you'll have an audience. I'll read it, at least. Good work, I'll have to finish it later.

The basic notion of a HSA is that you should pay for most of your own medical care yourself, without any insurance. Really what they are is insurance plans with extremely high deductibles (often $10,000+). The money you spend is then deductible on your taxes. This means that a rich person, paying a high marginal income tax rate, gets a 35%+ discount on medical care, while a poor person gets 10% or even nothing for a discount. So in effect, medical care is cheaper if you're richer. What HSA advocates are really saying is that the problem with health care is that people have too much insurance. A very curious position to take. HSA's make healthcare much more affordable for the rich, and do absolutely nothing for the poor.

With President Obama's Health Plan ALL AMERICANS will be covered. These HIDDEN TAXES will disappear. WHY is a ... "PUBLIC GOVERNMENT PLAN" ... good enough for all REPUBLICAN SENATORS in Congress ... but NOT good enough for ALL AMERICANS who choose this option over a Private Plan?? AGAIN we see the blatant REPUBLICAN LIES & HYPROCRISY !! PUBLIC HEALTH PLAN:
