  1. The part I’ve bolded, is the part that caught my attention. How many girls have you had “kissing sessions” with? Of those girls, how many of the relationships turned out to be “secure”? Answer: unless you are now married, the answer is zero. You didn’t have a secure relationship with any of those girls. If you had, the relationship wouldn’t have ended. So now, you’ve got a bunch of failed relationships where either you, the girl involved—or both of you—thought it was serious and committed, and it really wasn’t. And so the breakup becomes, not an amicable parting of two good people who on further investigation simply turned out to be incompatible; but a betrayal, a reminder of unmet expectations and unkept promises. All of that leaves a mark, psychologically and spiritually. It impacts the way we bond, and the quality of future relationships. God doesn’t want us to play around with people’s emotions like that just for the sake of a cheap semi-sexual thrill. And we aren’t really doing ourselves any favors with that kind of thing, either. I’m not saying we should never kiss anyone we don’t plan to marry. But I am suggesting that physicality cannot be cavalierly transactionalized without, to some degree, stunting our ability to form and enjoy and maintain meaningful relationships in the future. Fully restoring that ability—viz, repentance—is not an easy or a pleasant or a short process.

  2. Mormons—like most groups bound by a common ideology—often fail to live up to our highest principles. But we are told, in no uncertain terms, to avoid unnecessary judgments of others who are outside of our “stewardship” (even more so when we don’t have the facts); and I think dealing in hypotheticals like this comes uncomfortably close to the line. If the player were me: I’d probably have more kids. If the player (or his wife) were someone close to me, I’d probably try (if they were willing to talk about it) to get a fair sense of their considerations and thought processes, and if a suitable occasion presented itself I might perhaps gently encourage them to consider the possibility of having more. But then, I have six kids as it is; and I don’t make anywhere near five million bucks.

    I'M IN THE MONEY!!!

    Happened to glance at my spam before deleting it, and boy, am I glad I did! I'm in the money, folks! CA$H DOLLAR$!! And i can tell this isn't your typical Nigerian spam scheme, because it's not from Nigeria! It's from some perfectly legit-sounding outfit called Astound.net (paint me astounded!) based, apparently, in Italy. Mamma mia! Can anything bad come out of Italy? I thought I'd share the news of my good fortune with you, so you can all feel appropriately jealous of me. You're welcome. ******************************* For Mutual Benefit Larry Paulson <[email protected]> Sep 17, 2020, 1:27 PM (20 hours ago) to petlar7 This message seems dangerous Similar messages were used to steal people's personal information.

Looks safe Hello,I am Larry Peter Paulson Director Inspection Unit United Nations Inspection Agent in Hartsfield?Jackson Atlanta International Airport Atlanta GA. We are rounding up for the last Quater of the auditing, all abandom Consignment in US Airports are being transfer to our facilities here for inspection and confiscation. During our investigation, I discovered An abandoned shipment on your name which was transferred to our facility here in Hartsfield?Jackson Atlanta International Airport and when scanned it revealed an undisclosed sum of money in a Metal Trunk Box. The consignment was abandoned because the Content was not properly declared by the consignee as money, rather it was declared as personal effect to avoid diversion by the Diplomatic Agent also the Diplomat inability to pay for Non Inspection Fees.On my assumption, the boxes will contain more that $6M and the consignment is still left in storage facility till today. The Consignment is a metal box with weight of about 242LBS (Internal dimension: W61 x H156 x D73 (cm). Effective capacity: 680 L.)Approximately. The details of the consignment including your name the official document from United Nation office in London are tagged on the Metal Trunk box.I want to use my good office and clear the Consignment and deliver it to you. If you WILL ACCEPT MY C O N D I T I O N AND want us to transact the delivery for mutual benefit, you should provide your name, Phone Number and full address, to cross check if it corresponds with the address on the official document including the name of nearest Airport around you and other details. You should send the required details to me for onward delivery.All communication must be held extremely confidential. I can get everything concluded within 24 to 48 hours upon your acceptance and proceed to your address for delivery. But it must be on the condition that you will give me 30% of the amount contained in the boxes and i must get assurance from you concerning my 30% before i will proceed.I want us to transact this business and share the money, since the shipper have abandoned it and ran away. I will pay for the Non inspection fee and arrange for the boxes to be moved out of this Airport to your address, Once i am through, i will deploy the services of a secured shipping Company to provide the security it needs to your doorstep. or i can bring it by myself to avoid any more trouble. But i will share it 70% to you and 30% to me. But you have to assure me of my 30%. do respond to me immediately if you are interested to conclude this with me.Looking forward to hear from youBest Regards,Larry Peter PaulsonINSPECTION OFFICE
