Hello, Mr.Packard, I
recently prayed and
I have some
news. You see, the
night that I prayed,
was the night before
I had a Dentist
appointment and a
possible Root-Canal
treatment. I asked
to be relaxed, since
I have severe
anxiety disorder,
also to not feel
alot of pain and
have an okay
experience. Turns
out I didn't need
the treatment and I
was pretty calm,
altogether a pretty
good day I'd say.
Anyway, my point is
that I'm not fully
convinced all this
could have been a
coincidence, but I
cannot say that
either. So where
does this leave me
you ask? Well I'm
not exactly sure but
will continue to
pray in times of
need, and see what
happens, thanks for
your advice, I look
forward to speaking
with you in the
future.

absolutely no sense to
me what so ever. How can
being homosexual worsen
your spirit, besides all
the stubborn prejudice
people throw at you?

there is much debate and
the bottom line many
scientists today (you
won't hear this in most
public schools) agree
that there is
overwhelming evidence
for intelligent design
vs. the random chance of
evolution. Again
reading books from both
sides for yourself, and
prayer, will shed light.

dissapproves of
homosexual sex because

destructive to those

God says only sex
between a husband and
wife is blessed by
God. Did you know that
the average lifespan of
a homosexual is 40% less
than of a
heterosexual. That
means those committed to
a regular homosexual
lifestyle life decades
less than hetersexuals.
Now why do you suppose
that is? They die
physically earlier and
they die spiritually as
well because that
lifestyle lives in
direct contridiction to
what the Bible teaches.

known fact is that there
are hundreds of
thousands of FORMER
homosexuals who are now
happier and healthier as

Christians. Check
out exodus
international for more
on that.

werent the first inhabit

the Bible explain all

supposed to accept

real issue is Jesus who
He said He was. So if
you sincerely want to
know the answer to that
question...then you
should sit down and pray
to Him and tell him
exactly how you feel,
just like you told
me. Let Him prove
Himself to you over
time. There are answers
to your questions you
listed below but by
praying to Jesus perhaps
He (if He indeed is
alive) will reveal
himself to you in just
the right way so you
personally can believe
in Him.

possible? We're
following something that

years ago, just we like
we advanced in
technology we should
also advance
knowledgably, especially
something that has this
magnitude of power over
people... How could God
be perfect if he never
lived on Earth before
and had complications
like we do? Of course we
would be perfect if we
lived in a place like
Heaven, no worries, no
pain, pleasure 24/7,
disease-free, etc. Of
course we would be
perfect, who wouldn't?
It's not enough that
"God" is living a
perfect life but he has
to be angry at us for
making one little
mistake? Perfection, he
says is the only way to
Heaven, how could we get
in if perfection is
impossible. Also, it
said in the video that
if you pray your sins
will all vanish no
matter what they were,
well

which is for people to
be "good". What if you
kill a bunch of people
and pray all of a

it shouldn't work that
way, what if you keep
doing "wrong" things and
pray to wash them all
up, what kind of a cycle
is this? Anyway, I'm not
being bias, I'm not
saying I believe or
don't believe, but at
the moment I don't know,
so how can I be sure
without any evidence and
logical reasoning?
