Does any one have any info on how stars might 'move'? A few times now I, along with friends, have seen what appear to be normal stars in the night sky except they are moving slowly, almost like aeroplanes (which they are not, I might add...we live over thirty miles from the nearest flight path and they have flashing lights, just plain star light!).

Bizarrely a few of these 'stars' seem to stop and alter course when they get close to real star, almost moving round it.

Any ideas?

Today is the day we've all been anxious about has anything bad happened so far or is it just a load of old superstition.

At my job when I was laughing, I laughed so hard a fart slipped out. Other people heard it and laughed. I said, "Excuse me." Somebody told me not to worry because everybody does it. Not sure of the proper etiquette.

Do you know the name of the music from the film Babe? I recently watched it with my baby cousin and was struck with how much I liked the musical score.

The piece I am interested in recurs throughout the film and is simply instrumental, and sounds actually quite similar to 'Waltzing Matilda'. Any ideas? Thanks guys!

Check the dictionary definition. Worshiping a god is religion. Religion is also a way of life. So, if you pray, that's a way of life because it's a part of your daily routine. Some dictionarys even says believing in a god is religion. So, how in the hell could you not be religious? You're fooling yourselves. Face it, you're religious and you're a part of the worlds biggest problems

The Bible is all there is to suggest that there was such a character and all that is in the Bible is hearsay written by anonymous folk no earlier than 40yrs after Jesus supposedly died, these scripts were later heavily edited and attributed to saints whilst the remainder is totally fabricated. There are no contemporary eyewitness accounts of Jesus, Josephus mentions Jesus but was born way after Jesus supposedly died and so anything he wrote was merely hearsay...there is nothing to say the Bible is true except the bible itself ... would you believe a book just because the book itself tells you to believe it...I simply don't.

It is widely held that a love of money is evil. However, what do you think of my outlook?

I'm at University (UK) and my parents are fast reaching retirement age- they don't earn a lot as it is and the UK pension is pitiful to say the least. So, my ambition is to leave University and get the highest paid job I can straight away, and end up earning as much money as possible- purely to support my parents and try to pay back all the good they have done for me over the past twenty years despite poor health and incomes.

My parent's welfare is the sole reason I seek money, as I am not interested in fast cars or heated swimming pools or any of that. My dream is to be able to buy a house with enough ground so my parents (and those of my fiancee) can have their own little places with privacy but at the same time be close by.

I merely want to look after them in old age and, I'm sure, money is the best tool for the job (but it is little more than that, a tool).

So is this evil? Thanks

At my website, I will have a section for each religion. When you go on to the page for a specific religion, I'd like to have some Quick Facts about the religion, so you can get some basic info about it with just a glance.

For example,

http://www.pathsofdevotion.com/sikhism.html

On my Sikhism page, I just put this little table there with info on 3 things:
1. Founder
2. Date Founded
3. Number of Adherents, and where most of the Adherents are located.

Besides these 3 things, what would be some other good "Quick Facts" to include for each of the religions? What would you most like to see there?

Thanks.

P. S. Oh, and by the way, if the table and the text don't line up, I apologize. I haven't quite figured that out yet. This is in a rudimentary stage!

Does it have to be boring to follow your faith and worship only God??

Can a believer partake in the secular world as well as the religious world ?
