I'm a chaplain, and I thought some of you might be interested in a very different point of view about this. I'm not suggesting that you believe me, nor am I arguing for a "side."

The essence of Terri, her soul, is not in some state of limbo. Her soul is aware of everything going on around her just like...more
Do you find yourself asking all the right dieting questions but getting all the wrong answers? Are you tired of searching the internet and coming up with no real viable solution?Dieting is extremely tough. For anyone who is overweight it's one of life's hardest endeavors.

If you and your family were healthy, what would it be like?It is like this: Imagine you are shooting a bow and arrow at a definite target and you have no idea what the target is. What do you think the chances are that you will hit the target? Not very good. Knowing what the target is dramatically increases the chances of you hitting the target.
