The release of endorphins during religious devotion is well understood. So is the fact that endorphins, beings the body's own opiates, create a sense of well being.

When will christians understand that it is their brain's chemistry and NOT the holy spirit , that makes them feel warm and fuzzy?

Concerning Christian accusations?

Now, I'm not trying to advocate bad behavior for atheists, but...

Why do some of you, when criticized about being unforgiving, judgmental, and generally unChristian, criticize atheists in turn? Do you not realize that atheists do not adhere to the Bible as you do? Why do you think they would be bound by the same rules?

When you respond to criticism with, "Well, you're just as bad," you're only making yourselves seem worse. That is not the "Jesus approach," so to speak, nor is it any sort of justification for behavior.

And there's a good point...

What another does should not be justification for what you do, regardless of whether you are Christian or not. However, when Christianity is added to the equation, are you not supposed to be the ones who bring truth and light and love and healing? How can you accomplish this when you engage in the same game you believe the atheists are playing?

This is not level ground. You are supposed to be the exception, not the rule.

Is Islam a wicked religion?

I know it maybe seem racist at first but who causes the worlds problems today???? I know not all Muslims are terrorists, but the fact is most terrorists are Muslims, as theres not too many hindi suicide bombers. Were dealing with an enemy who kill themselves to kill other people. And i notice theres not many clerics who blow themselves up they always seem to be young people dont they?

Would the christian church have succeeded without the murder of so many people?

Constantine took Byzance with armed forces and made a christian capital from it to prevent the Persians from spreading their philosophy on the christian ground. Without that military conquest, would the christians be widespread today?

I fell completely inlove with a tall guy who stands confidently at 6.5.......?

I'm 4'11 and right when I saw this guy I lost my heart at once. He's so strong and tall and so handsom. I'm very petite and he's very tall. I don't know if he'll ever be interested in a girl of my height.

How will I get him to notice me? Do I need to wear heels while standing on a step stool waving my arms for him to put his head down?

What do guys of great height think of girls with lack of height?
