There's someone who hates you... a lot

The devil hates you.  He is not merely just the opposing side, or just an evil being out there somewhere.  He's a murderer with the cross-hairs aimed directly at you.  And he's not a paid sniper with no investment.  He's got his fingers at the trigger trembling with overwhelming hatred for you that can't be expressed adequately in words.  He despises you, loathes you, abhors you, reviles you.  His machinations aren't fueled by criminal cleverness.  No, he plots his attacks because he absolutely hates you.  He hates you probably more than you hate him.

Look at this face!

So cute!

Men should FART on women

One of the reasons why relationships between men and women go sour is that men don't FART on women enough. FARTing on women is a key to successful romantic relationships. As many of you know, I am a master at FARTing, so let me explain.

Focus
Attention
Respect
Transformation

Focus requires the concentration of our faculties. The mind of a man is distracted by all sorts of things. When having a deeply important conversation with a girlfriend or wife, men often replay in their minds the highlights from yesterday's basketball game. Focusing requires deliberate practice and patience. Being able to have a grip on ourselves is very important.

Attention is both what a woman wants and what a woman needs. After a man has been able to focus his faculties, he should devote that to his woman when she needs it. When a woman needs to talk to her man, he should be focused, and attentive. When she needs the man to speak to her, he should do so with attentiveness to her responses.

Respect must come from the guy no matter what happens. The man must respect the woman unconditionally. The adage "respect is earned" doesn't apply much in a romantic relationship. If it were so, most relationships would be doomed for failure. Instead, mutual respect is a key building block for success in the relationship.

Transformation is the fruit of the above parts. What may start out as a difficult relationship could experience great positive transformation! And of course, the power at work in this area is, of course, the Lord himself who guides us.

So please brothers -- please FART on ladies. It's good for you, and good for them.

Oh my poor back!

How did I injure my back while brushing my teeth? Well, it really has little to do with brushing teeth. Actually, when I was a teenager, I had hurt my back a few times pretty seriously. Since then, my back has had lingering problems. So the other day, early in the morning when I was brushing my teeth, I bent over the sink to spit out the toothpaste when my back just sort of clicked and gave out. It just happens randomly on occasion, and there's nothing I can do about it. I just have to stop, try not to move, and rest. Oh my poor back!

Can you get married to a non-Christian?
