Wounded from the Inside Out Domestic violence can be such a touchy and personal subject that it is most often a taboo subject. Everyone has a past and many individuals are reluctant to speak about what makes them uncomfortable. I would say that one of the most difficult domestic violence subjects is rape and not just any kind of rape but intimate partner rape.

These laws are presently being threatened by various groups that wish to promote their lifestyle and as the bible says, would hope to “change the truth of God into a lie.” The truth is committing adultery, homosexuality, pornography, incestuous relationships, and any other form of unnatural use of the body, including fornication, goes against the fabric of our society and causes tremendous tears that disturb the core of

Homosexuals go through much turmoil and hatred once they reveal that they are homosexuals because of people known as homophobes.
