I took the Belief-Net Quiz, which had a result as 100% Roman Catholic, and then 96% Protestant.

Does this mean there is potentially only a 4% difference in the beliefs of Catholics and Protestants? If this is possible, then should we really be arguing, fighting, and killing one another over 4%?

(And yes, I am 100% Catholic. That also makes me 100% Christian.)

About 2 months ago my husband and I decided that our family were going to become vegetarians. We have had no problems in doing so, our kids are doing very well with it also. My question is how do you all handle the rude comments that are made when people find out you don't eat meat. We have heard everything from we are retards to we are starving our children and they are going to die because "God wants us to eat meat and we are not natural by not doing so". It is very annoying and really is starting to make me mad. I am not a circus freak who has horns growing out of my head or anything like that but that is how people make me feel sometimes, when they have to bring it to everyone's attention that I am a vegetarian. Any suggestions???

Is there anybody else who feels an absolute joy and sense wonder and fulfillment when learning about the true scientific reasons for the how the universe and everything that is in it came to be ?

Do you feel an immense sense of wonder and amazement when you contemplate the sky at night and marvel at all we have learnt about our orgins and existance and all that there is still to know ?

Finally do you think that this joy and wonder is far superior to simply accepting ancient dogmatic myths as a way of explaining the world around us

How big was the universe (and in how many dimensions) before the big bang?
If I dug a hole in the earth and drove into it at the speed of light, would my headlights shine all the way through?
Could I have traveled back in time to fake the moon landings?
If the earth stopped spinning because of a black hole, would we notice (since my cousin's trashman said there's no such thing as centrifugal force), and would that turn off gravity and change the color of the sky?

I just got a new boat with a diesel engine and I don't understand why there is a coolant tank as well as a water pump? I think the water pump goes to the heat exchanger but what actually cools the motor - how does this stuff work?

Had my first driving lesson today and it went surprisingly well! I was wondering if it's better to have just the one hour, once a week, or has anyone found it better to have maybe two one hour lessons each week, or one two hour etc...? Also, i've been reading a lot of driving tips books, the highway code, practicing my hazard perception and theory etc. Do you think i should just concentrate on the driving itself or is it better to try learn everything at once? I'm a 21 year old female, does anyone know rougly how long it will take me to learn everything so i can take my test? I know everyone is different but id just like an idea. I think i pick things up fairly quickly. Thanks

what would you do? Would you burn alive or would you jump off that 100 floor burning building?

This is something that 100's of 9/11 victims has to decide at such a tragic event. May their bodies Rest In Peace.

over the past 7 years, i've noticed all elements of american politics have been lumped into 2 camps:

democrats vs republicans
liberals vs conservatives
good vs evil
right vs wrong
us vs them

and so on..

has all political thought been reduced to us vs them and black vs white?

and why all the team politics?

i don't understand why everything has to be lumped into two sets of generalities. nothing is ever that simple. nothing.
