Hey, Brian. I'm new here too - hope to see you around.
Hey everyone else too! There are a ton of very interesting topics, so it's going to take me quite a while to wade through them and think about them enough to respond.

I'm new here and just want to say hello to all. I'm french canadian so my english will not be perfect but hopefully understandable ( is it an english word ? I'm not sure, lol) . I'm a very curious person and i think that i'll learn a lot in these forums.
My names Sebastien. I have recently been annuled from my marriage to a Catholic. For 10 years i have lived the lie and lead a life i am not proud of. It was my wish, to live as a cirus performer however my good (past tense) lady wife couldn't cope with the constant leotards. She said it was too constricting to procreate, as all good catholics invisage the act of love for one true purpose. I disagree and felt the only viable option was to annul the marriage.
I have now returned to my Christian belief's, but unfortunatly this has meant the end to my marriage. I just want to be one of god's children and live a full Christian life. I will never re-marry as i feel i should only ever marry once.
However i am lonely and would like the thoughts of this intelligent forum on my predicament.

Your English is fine.

If they had a social gospel in the days of the prodigal son, somebody would have given him a bed and a sandwich and he never would have gone home.
Hello! My name is Daniel, and I am a college student in Kansas. I was raised Christian. I went through a period a couple of years ago where I doubted my faith and wondered if I was more of an agnostic and wanted concrete reasons to believe, and the GodAndScience website was one of those that helped me along and I still like to read, even if I don't agree 100% with everything there on evolution. This period ended up strengthening my faith and I think through it I learned what it truly means to follow Christ. I'm now addicted to apologetics, and my other interests include chess and sports. I look forward to posting more here and getting to know the community here.

Hello everybody. I wish I would have seen this before I started posting, but oh well.
I have been spending time on another forum debating religion and making a stand for Jesus. But as Paul says, I've been casting pearls unto swine. I now know what he meant by that.
I am a father of two beautiful girls,and a husband of a beautiful woman. I am also a licienced minister of the gospel at the church where my family and I attend. I am also a chef. I love chess, hockey, football, but most importantly Jesus first, then my family.
I accepted Christ at a young age, was baptized when I was 12. I fell out of fellowship when I was 18 and it took 11 years for me to come back, but I never fully gave up on God because He never gave up on me.
I am proud to be in the family of Christ, and look forward to disscussing with you all. Also, serving Him in the presence of His glory. God Bless.
