Some noob asked a similar question, but it actually made me think. My first thought was that the asker was baiting Christians to answer with something like "They should all be killed and made to face God," but then I realized that killing a bunch of atheists wouldn't actually end the existence of atheism. Atheism is an idea; it doesn't end with its believers as long as there is still the potential for someone else to learn about it and start believing in it.

So, how could you *peacefully* prevent anyone from having a certain belief? My thought is that ending a religion would be far easier than preventing anyone from disbelieving one. The first step in either direction would be to saturate the school system-- that is, teach everyone about how evil religion x is, or teach them to be evangelical Christians from day one.

I'm still not sure, though. Please reply with your thoughts.

One of my old friends is pregnant(we got into a fight and later that year she moved away)(we are teenagers) I had a dream about it. The dream was that during childbirth my friend died but said she wanted me to have the baby and take it in as my own. Within the dream I did, and this practically ruined my life but when someone asked me why I did I said cause I had to and if given the choice again I would not change anything.
When I awoke I thought I would take in the child but would it really ruin my life? I know my parents would support me. Whar do you all think of this dream?
Just wondering. Thanks so much!

I black out frequently. I can be sitting or laying down for a few moments and get up and become light-headed. My vision becomes impaired. I am worried with this because it happens about ten times a day. What should I do??

Okay, this is my 1st yr cooking a turkey. I saw Emeril on Live w/Regis & Kelly doing a cajun injected turkey and I kinda like spicy stuff but my family doesnt, Emeril said it was not so spicy it was over powering, which i thought would be perfect. Well i tried the recipe, unfortunately i did not have a flavor injector so I simply marinated the turkey in the marinade over night. The aroma from the oven is 2 much, it almost smells sickly sweet, but in a bad way. What can I do to salvage this poor bird. Much thanks in advance for all suggestions!!

I am remembering
the surrendered form,
I am remembering
the difference between God's Will
and my will.

God's Will is filled with love
and Artless surrender,
vulnerability held forever
in perfect submission
with eyes wide open to the Brightness of Only God.

My will, such a limitation, endless trying
Doubt, fear, sorrow, anger,
suffering in the dark
that has no end.

To lift beyond this to Grace,
To stand, To yield,
To Shine as the Heart.

I frequently see job postings that interest me but then I see that the employer requries a "related" degree and/or experience.

One example: EEO investigator for the US Department of Labor. I could do this with some training, some OJT training.
I am certain. I have a technical degree.

The way things are going, it will soon be necessary, when applying for a janitorial job to have an associates degree in Janitorial Technology.

I think the problem is that all these thousands of schools and colleges need to stay in business. If employers quit requiring bogus and unnecessay educational credentials, a lot of schools would go under and the teachers and administrators would have to get honest work.

I have been playing football with my husband and his pals. they play a rough game of tackle which sometimes includes the men "accidentally" tackling the women by grabbing our boobs to tackle us. my husband says its all in good fun so to just deal with it when one of his friends does it to me. does anyone have any advice how to get these guys back? one problem is i'm only 5'4 and most of these guys are big and built.
the guys think its so funny that i'm so vunerable because its so easy to take me down with a squeeze up there.

I have been Pagan for almost 10 years and still like to read books about our path...but am tired of reading the 101 type stuff. Cunningham, Starhawk and Silver Ravenwolf were informative to me 10 years ago...but now I would like to read something deeper and more involved on modern Paganism or Wiccan topics.

3 people were on a plane. One said to the pilot, "I have a glass bottle. What do I do with it?" The pilot told him to throw it out the window. The second one asked the same question and the pilot also told him to throw it out the window. The third one asked the pilot, "I have a bomb. What do I do with it?" The pilot told him to throw it out the window. When they landed they met a man crying. When asked why he was crying, he replied, "Because I got hit in the head with a glass bottle. They met a woman who was crying for the same reason. Then the met a man laughing. They asked him why he was laughing and he replied, "Because I walked by a building and farted. Then the building blew up.
