    Hubard wanted to be something he was not, very delusional con man, he was not crazy he was manipulative to the core. He wanted to be recognized as PSYCHOLOGISTS, but he was rejected as irrelevant person in that field, so, he decided to start religion which will bring him benefit from tax free status ... " If you want to get rich, start religion. " And here we are in 21. century with all of these maga "evangelicals" who have same sick ideas about purning the earth. DANGEROUS !!

    If we look at the history of marriage, generally the wants and desires of the woman has never been in consideration; thus the idea that sex is an expected requirement of marriage has to be given some circumspection. Certainly the exchange needs to be mutual for it to be sustainable. Using a woman as a receptacle is appalling to say in words, but think how the action actually feels when a woman finds herself in that position. The lack of mutuality of exchange points a very sharp point on it. Men must learn how to speak to women's desire, and to recognize the women who respond to them and avoid the ones who do not.

  • @bastiat6865
    @bastiat6865 6 дней назад

    It's important to understand that for women the sex begins mentally. So stimulating/seducing/inviting a woman to sex requires jump-starting her mind. If a man does not take the time to make sure he can touch her there before he touches her body, this will forever be a failure point in relationship. And if she doesn't like you touching her mentally, you probably are incompatible and have been for a long time.

    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'.
