It is my opinion that all Western/American culture influenced civilizations have high rate of adultery.

Therefore, it is also my opinion that Taiwanese males have high tendency of committing adultery than most other asian cultures.

Personally, I believe it is their misuse of the concept of girlfriend, boyfriend. In a way, they have treated such as an excuse from marriage. In THEIR christianity, as long as boyfriend girlfriend don't share the same house before marriage, and of course, no sex, everything else is accepted.

To correct such, I would say, one's motive must be towards marriage, no matter how you treat your boyfriend girlfriend relationship. And be honest, so that you won't fool around. All these are Biblical stated, and I'm sure many of those "adulterer" christians would concur. Unfortunately, they only know the talk, but they can't do the walk.

Am I really being too critical? Do I judge too harshly? Nay, the news everywhere speak for itself. I'm just reporting the facts.

Perhaps this is why so many Taiwanese girls find their Taiwanese males unworthy. So they indulge their curiosity somewhere else...Hollywood perhaps...hence, the westerners. Oh, don't get me wrong, I love mix relationship. After all, isn't our great ancestor, Noah, the source of all races? Nonetheless, how many failed marriages you see from these? American culture? Taiwanese culture? Really... Give me a break.

I am not claiming other cultures are better. I'm simply showing how far worse these western influenced cultures are.

As for the rest, they are no better, if Christian value is considered. For they put family before God while hypocritically praising God. Why would I say so? If one examined their Christian life from youth, actively serving, to adulthood, the expected rising enthusiasm seemed to have dropped. But I supposed it is good that this is so. For less is given, less should be expected. Had they continued to be actively serving as they were before, they may have destroyed their own family.

When one follow the reformed institute, it is a resources for one's conscience, to return to the path of our Lord. The western Christianity may seem like a giant today, but it cannot do any better but harm.

It is the practice of today's churches, to invite wolves into their midst unaware.

A person who wishes to emphasis on human emotions, making wrong right, such as promoting jealousy within the church, should be asked...no...should be instructed to leave, if the church still has authority of Christ. Because if that is the case, Christ love that church, and therefore the congregation not be corrupted by evil.

Those who wish to be holy and those who wish to pervert are very very different categories of people.

It is unfortunate that even Seminary graduates wish to separate theology from the church. Too boring? Too headache?

I ordered a cheap but worthy book from Amazon.com, "After Its Kind" by Byron Nelson.

According to the tracking number, the book arrived days before. But it was never found in my mail box. I rent a box at the post office no one's at home to accept any packages during the day time.

The staffs searched yesterday...or pretended to search (I really don't think staring at a hive of mail boxes filled with packages here and there searching), they asked to come back this morning to see the one named Roy, who's supposed to be responsible at these. I would rather they told me that it's lost, instead of pushing responsibilities around.

So I went back again, and Roy told me it's been delivered, pointing to the word "delivered" on the form which I brought to him. I feel like I'm taking crazy pill.

I told them that it's no big deal because this is a cheap book, I could just reorder. I realized they just won't admit they lost the package, so I thanked them, and left.

I do believe they have misplaced the package. Of course, they wouldn't even admit that, which did happen before, in my PO box, I had gotten someone else's package, and they thanked me for returning to them. But not admitting their fault, I guess is typical of many organizations, especially for government employees.

I think the fun part would be they making the same mistake again, misplacing someone else's package in my PO Box again. Then, there's going to be a show worth watching, I guarantee. That is, provided that I have the time to perform this.

On the other hand, I must be careful with my orders in the future, especially when ordering something that costs more.
