Modern science has replaced most of the early reasons for faith, i.e., desperation in the face of diseases that had no cures, fear of death from those diseases, the lack of an explanation for how we got here, no real knowledge of the nature of the universe.

Science and medicine have addressed all of these issues and much more thoroughly than Jesus ever did with his phony faith healing and nonsense about resurrection and demons.

If he had any real knowledge he would have explained that illness isn't caused by demons.

How much longer can the mindless religious drones fly in the face of reality before their numbers dwindle?

Or is it just that there will always be uneducated simpletons who need to have their money taken from them by con men masquerading as servants of God(s)?

Babies don't think about it, and they are saved because they are not accountable. Developmentally deficient adults aren't actively thinking about it, and they're saved because they are not accountable. Those that have never heard about Christ don't think about it and they are not accountable. So why not atheists? Why would they be excluded from heaven if they are not actively denying Christ at the time of death?

Or does entrance into Heaven depend on the last time you consciously thought about it?

I know a woman whos husband is a real prince. He spends HIS money on drugs, booze and other women. He thinks he's the best thing out there. He treats his wife and kids like 2nd class citizens. He makes good money but spends it mostly on himself. Now he's letting his wife sell her eggs for $7,000 and she thinks he will put in a kitchen that he tore out last year in august and blew the insurance money he recieved to put it back..( Had some mold on 1 wall and went crazy taring out everything) She says they need the money for the kitchen and the risk of complications is only 1% . I told her any good man would stop going to the bars and get a second job before he would let his wife, the mother of his kids do that. She has been with him 10 years and don't think she is worthy of anything but what he demands of her. She has no self respect left but wants a kitchen. I told her to wake up and kick him out and i'll put in a kitchen for her and take care of her and her kids. What do u think?

I ve been with the infected fish to the fish store so they could tell me what it is, and they seemed to think it was carp pox not White spot. so i had the water tested also which they said was fine and to treat the pond with medi Fin for 4 treatments over 4 weeks, which i have done. One of the fish seems to of had this for around a year, mainley on his tail fin and slightly on other fins (which are mainley white) but not the body. But also has hemoraging on the fins which has reduced since using the treatment but is still there (which is a comet fish) but some of the others now show slight signs of this and also one has some scales missing and a ulser i think?
I dont think i can put anymore of the medi fin treatment in. I heard putting non-iodised salt in may help to keep any infections at bay, but the dreaded blanket weed is now returning and i want to get that under control too. So can u tell me what it is and can i put all treatments in at the same time? Thanks

is this a valid reason for him to search your car?

Remember..

Amendment IV

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

A police officer having a hunch, although I respect them, does not cover this, if you use the reasoning that he cannot describe the particular place and the persons or things to be seized.

Do you agree or disagree and give reason why..

If you belive he should be penalized , then what kind of punishment do you feel will be fitting for Kaka ?

I am expecting answers mainly from the Brasilian fans although a thoughtful answer from anyone will be welcomed as well.

I have beginning to doubt Kaka's and Ronaldinho's loyalty and committment to Brazil. (Ronaldinho is always underperforming whenever he wears the yellow and blue jersey)

I'm a college student and I currently hate my job. Last night I worked a 12 hour shifts and didn't leave work to 2:30am. I have to be at work at 11am, today.

I want to call out sick to work? Should I? What should I say?

Why do people call Jesus God when the Bible is clear that he became sin on the cross? Why do people think that God would have become sin? Why do they ignore that the Bible says "there is no darkness in God"? Isn't it obvious that Jesus was the "unblemished Lamb of God"? How can the Lamb of God be God? How can the sacrifice be God?

I was told that I may have CTS - I am right handed and it is only in my right hand. The third finger (next to index finger) gets stiff and locks when I am sleeping and my fingers are bent. I wake up and can not straighten my one finger - I must do it manually. I was told this might be because of the use of the mouse and the way you hold that finger when clicking with the index finger. Has anyone else ever had this or heard of this? Is there anything I can do besides surgery?
