I deleted my post because I want no more dealings with you. I'm afraid of what you might say, or better yet imply. I won't intreract with you any longer, Goodbye.

The end!!

I grew up under the teaching of no rings and the church I attend believes it this way.

When I was married over 20 years ago we did not have wedding rings nor did we have token bibles, etc.

I do not need a ring to know I am married nor does my wife want one. We act married when we are at work or else where. There have been very few times we have had to tell anyone the "I am married" line because of not wearing a ring.

One thing leads to another, whether it is on the spiritual side or whether it is on the carnal side. Wearing a wedding ring opens a door to the thought process of "if it is ok to wear a wedding ring then surely it is ok to wear..."

As one of the pastors I have had in my life teaches "what womb did it come out of and where will it take you"
And just where do you think wearing a ring might take you?

LOL... I've been wearing the same two rings for nearly 20 years - nothing more, nothing less.

Twenty years? I'd say it's definitely time to upgrade!
