In Genesis we read that Abraham's "male member" was only 3 inches long and Sarah didn't have a son (Issac) until God gave Abraham some purple pills or something.

here are some examples where bible writers used the #, 3!
were these stories ever true, or were they just fabrications and laziness on the writer's part where it just made sense to use the #, 3?.
12-year-old jesus stays in jerusalem, joseph, and mary find him 3 days later.

you used to hear christmas music blaring on every radio station.
not anymore.
people used to jam the roadways and malls to do their christmas shopping and now it’s no big deal.
There is increasingly little interest in Christmas, at least here in South Florida. Fewer and fewer homes are decorated with lights.
I think it is more about the shopping, gifts and time off from work.

as jehovah’s witnesses, we were regularly told how awful a college education is.
i’m no longer associated with the religion but i am not so pro university.
it’s not because i think you are better off without a degree.
jp1692 ...
Thank you for your full disclosure. We need more of that here.
One of my dual majors was mathematics as we have a reasonable comprehension of the concepts based upon your comments and education. Your teaching must be very rewarding yet extremely challenging at the primary and secondary levels.
Be good.

she certainly is passionate about climate change.
🤔.
As the expression goes, "Beauty is only skin deep".
We talk about molestation on here quite a bit, but I bet she never got molested by anybody.
(Was I being too tough on her?)

hello forum.
my aunt, flyinghighnow, has passed away.
i don't know if you remember her, but she was a long time member.
Our condolences.
I do remember her well. A very nice woman. She will be missed.
If I may quote Simon, "But the presence they shared lives on and can continue to help others."
Amen.

All of the richest people I know and have known never went to college. Millionaires by working hard and investing wisely.

Obviously, you have never gone (never went?) to college based upon your comments and sentence structure.
But I do agree, that in your hood, there can be a lot of pimps who are millionaires. Them thick gold chains ain't free.

If you are smart academically, then higher education is an absolute plus, or in some cases, a necessity. If you want to be a doctor, pharmacist, CPA, lawyer, CEO, or other position, trying to do it without higher education will be difficult if not impossible.
If you have some specific skill or trade such as a plumber, electrician, carpenter, or other trade, you can have your own business, no higher education, and still make a ton of money.
But if you want to be a doctor or pharmacist, try to do it without higher education in the US. Maybe you could bluff your way through in a third world country.

i am so sick of this cult, this religion has such a grip on her.
since i left in 2014, things just are getting progressively worse.
and she it's just getting deeper and deeper.
I have been down the divorce road before.
As many here have mentioned, communication is the key. Let her talk. Then let her talk some more. And then more.
Even if you have strong disagreements on religion, you have been together and know each other.
There are so many negatives or downs when breaking up. Again, I am speaking from experience.
I don't know your feelings about using a biblical verse, but you could quote the Matthew 19:6 verse that says what God has put together, let no man tear apart.
Maybe that is not applicable in your case but keep it in your pocket if she goes too far down the religious route.
I wish you the very best, but please communicate.
