Joy is not a requirement of Christian discipleship, it is a consequence. It is not what we have to acquire in order to experience life in Christ; it is what comes to us when we are walking in the way of faith and obedience. --Eugene Peterson

Wow. How sad.
"I have decided to go with Ebay in an effort to spread the messages of Jesus." Hmmm...maybe we should try Craig's List to see which is more effective.
Excuse me....my jaw just dropped and hit the floor. I particularly like his cure for cancer! Interesting.
There was an interesting article on MSN this morning about the single life and how it's better than the married life....it's non-Christian in perspective. And while the article touts that we singles can do anything we want, whenever we want.....to me it paints a bleak picture. It's a good read.... http://msn.match.com/msn/article.aspx?articleid=6320&TrackingID=516311&BannerID=544657&menuid=7>1=8333
Anne, it is curious that a woman who has come up with a list of reasons why singleness is better to have written a book entitled, How to Find the Right Person in 90 Days. If marriage is the abyss she makes it out to be, why would i want to enter into that abyss in only 90 days?
Here we have an example of taking a little of bit of science and a little bit of an agenda and whipping up a rather provocative essay that's sure to sell a few papers.
Don't hear me assigning a hierarchy of marriage over singleness, but all the reasons she gives for opting for the latter have the a stench of self-interest that, as the Preacher in Ecclesiastes might conclude, will leave them asking the question at the end of their lives, "what does a person gain for all their pursuit of personal pleasure? This, too, I found was absurd."
