&#8220;A kindhearted woman gains respect, but ruthless men gain only wealth.&#8221;  Proverbs 11:16
Some countries view women as second-class citizens. Women in these countries  are entitled to less rights. They receive less education, less training. They  are seen as a burden in the household except the time when a man needs a woman  to carry his children and continue his ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[By Pete Stockton
A lot of people think the Bible doesn&#8217;t have anything to say about wealth and  money. Money is a new thing, a sign of the modern times. They didn&#8217;t have US  dollars or Japanese Yen in the Bible. In the Bible, people traded sticks and  stones or maybe cows and sacks of rice. The Bible can&#8217;t teach me anything about ...]]></description>

Every Sunday (and for some folks it is every Saturday), millions of people  put on their &#8220;Sunday best&#8221; and pack the pews, padded seats, folding chairs and  rough hewn benches of facilities nationwide that constitute their places of  spiritual worship.
While religion is practiced the world over, the connection for Black people  to their church and the Black clergy ...]]></description>

By Gorazd Andrejc
You can find very different attitudes towards environment and  global warming problem among Christians. There are of course Christians who  simply do not care and do not see any real connection between their religion and  the idea to save the planet. Religion is about saving humanity, spiritually  speaking, not the planet, right? Before moving to the answer to this ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Matt Bell
One of the hottest topics on the marriage circuit today is whether you should  have a prenuptial agreement (“prenup”). While only 3 percent of married or  engaged people have a prenup, USA TODAY reports that fully one-third of single people say  they would ask their spouse-to-be to sign one, and 40 percent of divorced people  say they would do ...]]></description>

With today&#8217;s acceptance of &#8220;safe sex,&#8221; more and more young people are playing with fire, and are getting burned. Consequences are an after-thought, but it&#8217;s often too late. Young girls are scrambling to get help and answers, the boys they thought loved them suddenly disappear, or recommend abortions, and these young girls (many of whom have barely stopped playing with their baby dolls) ...]]></description>
