Ebonni's question: Why do we need our men so bad?

Why, as a woman, when it comes to loving a man, it turns into loving him too much? Even when the man is no longer good for us and undeserving of us, uncaring, and never around, we can't let him go. Why can't we? Is it because we think we need him in order to function?

Thanks for your help!

Don't get the wrong idea . . .


Hi. Thanks for your help. My question involves one extra step but shouldn't take more than 10 or 15 minutes to answer. Thank you for taking the time.

When you hear that someone belongs to the Church of Satan, what associations do you have or opinions do you form of this person? What do you base these opinions and associations on? Based on what you know, do you understand Satan as necessarily evil or as a negative force? If so, why is that? Do you think that Satanism is significantly different from Christianity? If so, in what major ways?

After responding to those questions, will you please visit this web site and then return here to answer two more questions. Thank you. http://www.satanicchurch.com/content/9-sins.aspx

Now that you've looked at or read the nine Satanic sins, have you changed your ideas about Satanism at all? Is there anything you've read that makes Satanism look attractive or at least a little less scary?

Thank you for your comments!

April Steele
afternoon class

Why do bad things happen to good people?


Why does God allow evil? Why does He permit natural disasters and tragedies that only He could prevent? Do you believe that God is both all-knowing and all-powerful? If so, He must know what suffering lays ahead (such as children being trapped under debris after an earthquake or tsunamis sucking babies out of their mothers' arms), and He could stop it if He chose, so why doesn't He?

Thanks for your thoughts! Sara Waldack
