Do Not Disavow

Do Not Disavow By: Rick Davis   When Charlemagne established law Salic in barb’rous land, The gospel flourished, and he saw Christ’s praise on every hand.   (“Do you approve his methods now?”) I do not disavow.   King Godfrey took Jerusalem From bloody paynim hands And brought a halt to Musselmen Invading Christian lands.   (“He did some mean things anyhow!”) I do not disavow.   King Richard with his scarlet shield And passant lions ‘bossed Rode forth again unto the field To regain what was lost.   (“His deeds at Acre you allow?”) I do not disavow.   Unto the Germans Luther brought The gospel full restored, And Calvin at Geneva taught The glory of the Lord.   (“The Jews?

Relationship Advice

It seems like everytime I walk past the magazine rack at the grocery store or go to a news page on the internet like Yahoo or MSN, I see some link to a relationship article that seeks to answer the question, "When should I sleep with X?" If you are in a relationship, do you hop in bed on the first date? Or do you exercise chastity and self-control by waiting for the third date (so he'll respect you)?

There are a number of social factors entangled in all of this, so it gets pretty complicated. In order to help people out, I thought I would take a shot at this difficult topic and make a flow chart that encompasses all of the important variables and factors involved in such a confusing and complex issue. Simply start at the top of the chart and follow the lines downward as you answer the questions. It shouldn't take you more than a few minutes to get through the entire chart, and then you will have the satisfaction of knowing for sure whether you are ready to be intimate with that special someone in your life.


I hope this chart proves to be helpful.

And yet, if you say this, then clearly you are narrow minded and unrealistic because what does it matter?
