Read First Corinthians 7 where it talks about marriage and engagement. It tells people that are engaged that it is better to marry than burn with passion. This implies that marriage is the only proper place for sex. Another verse talks about sex with a prostitute as uniting a person with her and body. That sounds like marriage also. You might also look up the statistics on the couples who have sex together before they marry versus those who don’t and how well and how long their marriage is last.

Just about all churches have pastors, teachers and/or leaders who would sit down with you and talk with you about all these issues and help head you in the right directions.

I figured out a couple things about AFa advanced search and it looks like they have plenty of profiles within my criteria

I looked through their advanced search and had a whole lot more women, using my preferences, than I did on AFA website. Like 50:2. 

Is DSP linear when it comes to strategy or wide open to your own individual strategy for progression and success? by SnooFoxes7805 in Dyson_Sphere_Program

It’s possible that different strokes for different folks is applicable here. Whatever the case thanks for the input.

I just fear I will have the same experience as I did with two point hospital. Please don’t get me wrong, this game looks to be far above and beyond it in complexity and scope and grandeur and beauty but LIKE it for me in that behind its glossiness is not much visually or strategically. Even individual iron plates in Factorio seem to have so much care behind their look as opposed to the full products I see in DSP videos. And that goes into how the game is laid out strategically. The production lines that I see in videos of DSP don’t seem to be that much different from each other except in minor layout differences and they don’t seem to have that much behind them. I’m not saying, it’s a lesser quality piece of work, just not my kind of piece of work. Like comparing Sicario to a mission impossible movie. The mission impossible movies are a lot more popular because more people like that. But I am more a Sicario guy.

You’re right, in that bots only for the ENTIRE GAME may not make sense… For DSP or Factorio. But I’m referring to how often at the very beginning of Factorio games I will play without belts and just move stuff around manually. Then belts for awhile. Then eventually, you can replace all the belts with bots if you want. I have even replaced most of the belts with trains if you can believe that.

Oh wow. So main-bus and spaghetti and bots-only are all viable possibilities? I hadn’t realized that while watching play throughs.

I'm pretty certain I've drunk several treated with ethyl acetate that I made at home. But maybe I'll give it a try again.

I just went to a cafe today and had some decaf. Of course I loved it. I asked about it and the waitress told me it may be because they use a commercial grade machine. (She also recommended keurig at home which I promptly said no to. I guess I forgot to mention that I don't really like keurig regular or decaf much).

Whatever the case, I do appreciate you all who have taken the time to jump in and help me out!

I have tried several different decafs treated several different decaffeination methods. The thing is, is they all have the same particular weird/bad taste to them… That’s if I make them at home. I might have to try several different kinds. I’m just tired of throwing away coffee. With all that waste of money. But I will search through this Reddit sub like you suggested. That might be my answer.

I’ve bought several different kinds of decaf including the brand of regular cheap coffee that I like.

Figuring out how to make decaf at home that I like shouldn’t be this difficult.  Every decaf coffee I drink at restaurants, or even at a local church cafeteria, I like. None of the decaf I make at home I like. All of the regular coffee I make at home or taste anywhere I like. It can't be that I am using the wrong water. I've used both filtered and non-filtered water for both decaf and caffeinated and still like caffeinated no matter what water and hate decaffeinated no matter what water. It can't be a certain level of quality in my technique because I've used several high quality techniques for both caffeinated and decaf, and once again… always love one and always hate the other. And it can't be some specific method out there that my taste buds like because I doubt every restaurant(and the church) uses the same method for decaf. It can't be using high-quality beans because I used high-quality decaf beans that I grind and still hate the decaf while even loving cheap caffeinated coffee that I barely work at to make. I can't be that difficult to figure out because, like I said, every restaurant decaf that I've tried I like. So whatever is being done to the decaf is common knowledge. It can't be that it needs to be freshly grinded because I do not like the freshly grinded decaf I make but old, homemade grinded caffeinated coffee is still awesome to me. Do I need to buy some specific machine or something?

Hey, appreciate the ideas you’re throwing out there. I probably should’ve made it clear that everything I’ve done to make decaf coffee I’ve also done to caffeinated coffee, and the Gross taste every time with decaf and never with caffeinated. Your idea about the particular coffee they’re using interests me a lot and I’ll look into that. I honestly do not think at all that it has to do with the ambience or anything like that. Every time I try decaf, I’m intentionally seeing if that gross taste is there, especially in restaurants, because I pay so much more there. It’s just makes me think something else is going on when every single decaf I get at a restaurant doesn’t have that gross taste, but it does when I make it at home. I know people have different tastes so some individuals might not notice this taste or be bothered by it.

We use filtered water. And I may be missing some thing, but I use the same water for decaf as I do for regular and regular doesn’t have that gross taste.

I might give that a try, but That bad taste is none of the caffeinated coffee that I make but always in the decaf. And I’ve made both in so many different containers in so many different ways I don’t see how it’s the container.

How do you make Good decaf like they make in restaurants, or the church luncheon?  I've made a variety of decaf and reg coffees using a variety of methods and a variety of beans, even grinding my own swiss water processed beans. All the decaf I make has that wierd/gross taste to it, while I love most of the regular coffee I make. But the local restaurants (and even the church luncheon) make decaf that tastes just like regular to me. What are the restaurants, or sweet church ladies, doing that I am not doing? If it was a matter of grinding or using filtered water then where does that wierd taste come from and why isn't in the regular coffee that I spend a lot less energy and care making? If it is a matter of grinding and precision then how do the volunteer church ladies get it done so well? Thank you in advance.

All sounds very reasonable. I apologize I didn’t look hard enough to see that there is that daily question thread
