Oh I believe there is evil in the world. Its frightening, scary and sad.

I believe forgiving yourself can be very hard, especially when you hurt someone you love.

And God is my higher authority and I need Him more than the air I breath.

Of course. I don’t understand the attitude of the “asker” in this situation.

Why belong to an organization for which you are constantly trying to evade the rules? Doesn’t make any sense to me.
