I agree! The problem is that the advert doesn't help that way of thinking!!! Say, why am I here replying to these messages, anyway? The advert's still there at the top of my screen. I think I'll go and do some work.

Bye for now,

I have to admit that there can be quite a lot of stress being a single Christian. Not only are there the sexual temptations mentioned previously, but some churches (thankfully not that many) aggravate the problem by treating their single members as misfits and more or less pushing them off to the side. It sometimes seems that being single is seen as a sin, although I'm not sure how anyone could come to that conclusion. Perhaps it's assumed that single believers are too preoccupied with loneliness and are spending too much time looking for dates, instead of serving God. I'm not really sure. (Just as an aside, I notice that there is no singles forum on this site, although almost every other group has one. Not a complaint, just an observation.) Anyway, although I'm not offended by the Christian Single banner ad, I can understand why it might make someone uneasy.

Bartholomew,

All I can say is what advert?

On my screen there are no banners, adverts, no temptation. I do not know why? But I am glad

But in general I do know what you mean. They are annoying and distracting.

Roy.

I think that it'd be a good idea to have a Single's Forum for people who are either single and happy, single and unhappy, or single and whatever they're feeling.
