Every religion has its own interpretation of why we (human beings) are here on Earth. Most say its a testing ground for the hereafter or its a duel between God and satan to see which one of us is devoted to God. I believe there must be a reason beyond those obvious/oblivious ones. God in all His excellence is above all of this. The Almighty does not have to prove anything as such and if yes to whom then? He is Omnipotent and doesnt need to judge His own creation and that too in this manner. The concepts of judgement and a bet between good and evil are too human based. God doesnt have anything to prove so none of that judgement or duel stuff makes sense. That leaves us with the question...What indeed is the real reason for humankind to be on Earth??

All my life ever since I was a young boy I was always told "respect your elders" "respect your boss" ect. ect. But i never thought the old man who through yelled racist words evertime he saw a black guy walking down the street "deserved" my respect because he showed no respect to the black guy. But I do respect lots of people because they do something that is brave or some thing like that becaused they worked to recive it, regardless of age or whatever. What do you think?

I have put up with alot of stuff at school, mall, and other places about being Catholic. My friends call me a "Stupid Catholic" as a joke, but it still sucks. Why do other religions make fun of us?

Answers to my last question left me thinking...Do they make you practice this stuff just in case you are asked this question?
Stop using the word faith, explain to me exactly why you trust in whatever you trust in.
And please no more ignorant comments from people like J W Hockey.

Billions of years ago, a big bang produced a large rock. As the rock cooled, sweet brown liquid formed on its surface. As time passed, aluminum formed itself into a can, a lid, and a tab. Millions of years later, red and white paint fell from the sky and formed itself into the words "Coca Cola.... 12 fluid ounces."

Of course, my theory is an insult to your intellect, because you know that if the Coke can is made, there must be a maker. If it is designed, it must have a designer. The alternative, that it happened by chance or accident, is to move into an intellectual free zone.

Do you have a favorite author? What book have you read that you would recommend avoiding because you were disappointed? Have you ever had a book make you angry (I was FURIOUS when I read Stepford Wives).

One of Teddy Roosevelt's speeches, Citizenship in a Republic (1910), contains possibly his most famous quote ("...the credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood...").

Assuming it was recorded (cylinder phonographs were invented in 1877), where could I find a recording of it?

I am an Atheist. I would very much like to know why someone would give their life in service of a "god". Dont talk straight from the bible because it would not answer my question.

If people say they have "faith" that they have a soul, this means they really don't know. So, my question is: if you can't see it, feel it, touch it, taste it, or study it, how can it exist? Wouldn't biologists be studying it rather than the dead bodies on their tables--trying to figure out about this "soul"?
