Hello

[JJ2006]

Hello. My name is John and I'm new on this site.

Strangely it seems our credibility to answer questions is largely taken for granted. Sometimes you�ll get someone questioning your authority on a subject and you might choose to underline why you felt qualified to comment, otherwise you have a go if you feel you have something to add.

Well, you�ve weathered you first rambling debate so�. Welcome.

[JJ2006]

Thanks antiguru.

Hello Mani, well I suppose that I havent met the right girl yet, but I would like to marry eventually.

I was always an Athiest until a few months ago when I had an amazing experience that has made me rethink a few things. I'm on a bit of a voyage of discovery now learning about different religions.

Mani, for heaven's sake! What a question! Do give the man a chance! He's only just joined us!

[JJ2006]

Wow Mani you don't beat around the bush!! Yes I have been single for 3 months but no I don't sleep around.

Hello JJ :) and All :)
I also have a q. Why id you choose Religion and Spirituality to introduce yourself?

[JJ2006]

Hey Beryllium, I'm on a bit of a spiritual journey at the moment and am trying to learn about all different belief systems so this is where I will be posting most of my questions.

[JJ2006]

Yes I am hetrosexual, why all the interest in my sexuality?

[naomi24]

Mani, why do you insist on doing this? Are you really so obsessed with that great sin - sex?

John, can you tell us about this amazing experience you mention?

[beryllium]

Wow Mani!!! Heel.
Goodoh JJ :)

[naomi24]

Oh Beryl, pleeeease don't encourage him. :o)

How are you?

[WaldoMcFroog]

Mani is living proof that religion can seriously warp sexuality and turn something wonderful into something creepy and salacious.

[JJ2006]

Well Naomi as long as I can remember I have always been a complete Atheist with no interest in religion at all.

One day I was cycling home from work past a Church and strangely I had this strong urge to stop and go inside, so I stopped and went in. I don't want to go into detail about what happened in the Church because to be honest if someone told me about it I would probably think they were insane.

I had a really life changing experience. I'm not ready to become a fully fledged Christian yet but it has sparked an interest in me about learning about different religions and different beliefs.

[WaldoMcFroog]

Although maybe that's unfair. Maybe he's always been obsessive and odd when it comes to sexuality and religion has nothing to do with it.

[naomi24]

Thanks for that John. Maybe when you know us a little better you'll feel able to go into more detail.

Hello Waldo, so pleased you've turned up. Seems we're at it again. :o)

Christ... how did a simple introduction turn in to the spanish inquistion?

I'm peeved.... Mani's never asked me what my preferences are!

[naomi24]

Ah, maybe that's because you're a woman, China.

[beryllium]

Awake Naomi :D for once hehe...

Sorry JJ slight highjack of your thread...

Naomi? how is the dear gentleman please?

JJ there was a time many moons ago when I did go into a church, and it was beautiful and empty, except the vicar just chillin' and pottering. I sat down for a while and just had a quiet moment.
Now we borrow the keys to our church where we moved to, as it's a small parish, and can go and sit there if we want.
I haven't been yet, but mr B wants to go and look for the Holy Grail there lol....

I think the vicar was laughing...... :D

Says who Naomi? ;0)
