If this is the same Ladonna Hill from Revealing I visited a few times as a child is it possible to buy a copy of your gospel Cd? Those songs I’ve remembered and loved since a child and would love to be able to hear them again I lost my moms cd many years ago . What a talented woman of God !
Do you have any provable, fact-based evidence of anything spiritual in the bible? And by "evidence" I mean, NOT any hearsay, feelings, faith, beliefs, hopes, coincidences or bible stories written by man.
If lust is a deadly sin that would mean that to indulge in it is to DIE! Are we to believe that to lust (or to desire greatly) anyone or anything is to accept a death sentence? Put another way, if nobody lusted - especially men after women - there would be no reason to marry or date or desire companionship. That means that the population of the earth would eventually diminish to the point of extinction. Not a place I'd want to be.

Update: 8/18/21 6:02 PM; 5/26/21, I found out 16 years ago that there were many unofficial adoptions from the beginning of time up until the 1940s for the United States and still continuing all over the world where there were no paperwork, no attorney nor court, nothing legal. You just take the baby, infant, toddler, small child, and teen home with you and when the ‘census records takers’ comes around you just tell them that its your daughter/son if they will be too young to remember that they were separated from their biological parents; they are not never told about whatever happened to their parents, that they were/are not their children, and that they are not the parents. Not only did relatives take in the orphans but none relatives or friends of the parents and neighbors. Back then heads of households took in strangers when they didn’t have nobody to stay with; and the census records aren’t correct as to the ‘role’ of the infant, baby, toddler and small child to the head of households, in many cases if the infant, baby, toddler and small child isn’t no kin then they are mistreated badly, not talked to, nor cared about nor looked out for nor encouraged to do better or stay in school. This is the reasons that you may not be liked, respected, cared about, talked to, looked out for by who you think is your parents, grandparents, greats, aunts/uncles, first cousins and other kin. That’s why you can’t find midwives papers 1.) because who you think is your parents and grandparents are not 2.) because the baby, infant, toddler and small child wasn’t old enough to remember that they were separated from their parents for whatever reasons - one to a few of one hundred reasons. There’s many reasons why babies, infants, toddlers, small children and teens are separated from their biological parents. Collect the Family history anyway, because you could be possibly cousins, you would have to get an Ancestry dna test or 23&me to find out for sure. James 1:25-27
Remind the members or parishers of the religious institutions, churches and its religious leaders to collect their family history and write/document stories about what happened long time ago, talk to their old family members; this is something we should have did a long time ago, when we came out of slavery, but the Quakers, nor the Catholic Churches told us to do so. I found out that the best way to deal with those nasty, mean, cruel, no good dog relatives: collect the family history, info, records and old photos so that you can know who you are related to and so that your children won’t marry their cousins. An older neighbor from the south told me that he witness people couldn’t take care of their children and had to give them away. I talked to a man from the U.S. census board and he told me the same thing that whites, blacks were giving their children away everyday, because they couldn’t care for them. I’m in the Ancestry dna database and my configuration is there is 300,000 1st - 6th close cousins that you don’t even know; [not including the 7th - 10th or more cousins, 400,000?] the reasons that we have so many cousins that we don’t know, is due to slavery not allowed to know who we were kin to; the rape and pregnation of slaves by slavemasters; after slavery ended, the men folks stepping outside of their marriages unknowing/and knowing have offspring; we are marrying our cousins.

Update: 10/02/21 According to article in ‘PARADE’ in 2012, a psychologist study showed that children need to know (1) that things don’t always work out (2) and you need to know about your ‘Family History’! My comments: Find out how your parents and others were treated by who they thought were their parents, grandparents, uncles/aunts, cousins, great uncles/aunts? Who were their enemies and what happened: who got after them, tried to harm them or who tried to kill them or who killed them? Their dates, places of birth, death, marriages? Their children 👶? Did they go to school: where, when and how? Why didn’t they go to school or further their education? When did they leave home and why? Workplaces? A group member’s comments below: A foundation (family history) is so important ... even if just stories about a parent’s life experiences. Agreed, we need to raise children to be resilient. The other part psychologists are saying, it is important that parents allow children to solve their own problems. Too often parents step in to fix, but we will not be here forever to solve their problems.
According to an article in the Internet, there are about 600,000 switched at birth people among the earth’s population all around the world. Babies are switched at birth: are babies who because of other error or malice, are interchanged with each other at birth or very soon thereafter, leading to the babies being unknowingly raised by parents who are not their biological parents. After slavery ex-slaves were marrying their own cousins, and didn’t know it. Black people still marrying their own cousins and don’t know it. We have 100 thousand or more cousins that we don’t know about and never, couldn’t imagine it. You have cousins spreaded out all through the world because of the transatlantic slave trade and rape of slaves causing slaves to have many siblings that they never met. I received the Ancestry dna results may 14,2019 and was shocked to find out all of this. In Every state, country, continent, island, sea island even in the Soviet, Middle east, India you have forth (4th) to tenth (10th) or more cousins in which you would never have imagined.
Is there a religion that has the right teachings that will lead us to heaven? James 1:26-27 [26]If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain. [27]Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. James 1:25_27 A lot of things were happening before the 1940s especially in the United States of America; people born before the 1940s, could possibly be orphans and believed to be no kin/related to who they were told were/are their parents. Pay attention to how your parents, grands and other relatives were/are treating you, because they supposed to care something about you. Infants/babies, small children, teens, young adults, older adults and others had to be taken into the households of relatives, neighbors, strangers and friends of the parents and when no relatives could be found then friends of the parents, neighbors, or strangers took the orphans into their household. When the babies, infants, small children grows up they have no memory of what happened in the past, many cases they were treated badly and wondered why their parents care nothing about them or don’t want to be bothered, but they sees parents and relatives treating other relatives and friends better. The orphans feels outcasted, lonely, and not cared for and goes to their graves not knowing that they were orphans! I believe that’s what was wrong with my parents, they were looking for Love among the Relatives and couldn’t find it. The relatives thought they were no kin and we were not related, so that’s why they were treated badly, outcasted, had no support networks and were lone wolves. I found out that they were orphans some 16 years ago, so they went to their graves not knowing that they were orphans like so many others born sometimes before the 1940s.
