I mentioned how I know a Christian woman who chose to basically go bald (mostly bald, not shiny bald), not due to chemo or illness, and not due to wanting undue attention. She said she just simply got tired of all the time and money she had to spend on hair care.

He wants to know why God initially allowed Satan to enter the garden - so to speak, though he didn't phrase it that way. I gave my thoughts to him, and talked about free will. I asked him how he would feel if every . . .
