Rob replied to Josh's discussion Intermittent Fasting: First Impressions"Intermittent fasting is probably simply rediscovering how an old religious practice works:
The point of religious fasting is to exercise the functions in your brain that regulate staying "on track" for accomplishing a goal. The…"
Jason Detwiler replied to Josh's discussion Intermittent Fasting: First Impressions"Read "Carb Backloading" by John Kiefer.
Please."
Paul Sappington replied to Josh's discussion Intermittent Fasting: First Impressions"I always practiced fasting as a strictly religious discipline, never really thought of using it as a weight loss plan. While leading a weekly Bible study in college I fasted 24 hours prior to the scheduled meetings.
Religous or not, there…"

Currently I have 59 minutes left before I am eating an I just wanted to share my thoughts and experiences with my first 24 hour fast.*Before we jump into this, I would like to point out that I am…See More
SteveSF replied to Josh's discussion What to do?"Josh, you like a girl and you think she knows you like her. If that's the case, then the longer you wait the more she thinks you're scared. Not good.
You can't yet worry about whether she wants to date you on an ongoing basis when…"
Josh replied to Kediel Morales's discussion Music"Yes music can be very manly.
What do I usually listen to? Well when I'm working out or just looking for my usual I like to blast Anberlin, The Black Keys, Skillet, 3 Doors Down, etc etc...
When I'm looking for a bit of variety I usually…"
Erg replied to Josh's discussion What to do?"Seriously, just ask her. If she says no, oh well, to bad. You will ask out many, many girls. You will get gunned down many times. This is not a bad or awkward thing to ask. Your asking her out on a date, not to be the…"
J. replied to Josh's discussion What to do?"Don't wait. The time will never be 'just right'.

Josh replied to Josh's discussion What to do?"Hey guys,
Thanks for all the advice, I really didn't expect this many replies. The replies really made me want to ask her more haha.
Anyway, I think I'm going to ask this week, probably between Wednesday and Friday, when a good…"
Rob replied to Josh's discussion What to do?"I have two bits of advice--worth roughly that much I think.
One is that if you want to ask her out, you always have the option of doing so in an open-ended sort of way so that it's not a "yes or no" question in the first place. I…"

Jess Levens replied to Josh's discussion What to do?"Also, her really good friends say things like "she doesn't want a boyfriend"

Raising a Child Without Religion, or Faith
Every two or three blocks on the avenues of downtown Brooklyn, a big old stone church rises from the ranks of the brownstones. A couple of weeks ago, my little boy Felix pulled his trike to the curb and squinted at the steeple of one."What's that castle, Da-da?""It's not a castle, it's a church.""What's a church?""It's a place where people go to worship god.""What's god?""God is a concept some people believe in. A creative force, I guess you'd say.""Huh."And with that, he rode on. I must admit,…See More
