OT--Thank you Jesus....
Do not apologize for it being a late post. I am in the Middle East so my responses are always when the majority from these boards are asleep.
My hair is pulled back in a ponytail. It was one of those "I can't do anything with it today" days so I just pulled it back. It just so happened that it got a lot of attention from the soldiers in the building so I had a picture taken. I have been thinking of getting a wig just for fun now that it is finally starting to cool down over here.
Now, I have to disagree with you when you say that LeaAnn was not stating her believes. She believes that belief in a god (any god, not just limited to the christian one) is crap. She may have stated it in a very aggressive way but that is her belief.

I think it is great that you do not criticize people with beliefs different than you own. However, this is not the norm. Most people who believe outside of what is considered to be "true religion", and that changes even with in the different denominations, are often criticized and harassed for their beliefs. After a while, someone who feels that religion is being pushed down their throat at every turn is going to strike first in self defense.

Many times when a person is jealous of what another has they say and do nasty things,
Please use your prayers for me as I can never have enough ,.,
I DO NOT RESPECT a non believers belief , I can only pray for them ,,In the end like you said, I want to be in mine and your shoes ,,,,
PRAISING YOU LORD for all you do for ALL OF US everyday.
First of all "a non believers belief"? What?
Second of all, if you do not respect someone else's beliefs, or in this case, lack of them, how can you expect them to respect yours? No one says you have to agree with it but you should respect the right of that person to have them.

No. You believe you are right. Just as LeaAnn believes she is right. In the end that is all it is for either of you. A belief.
