Many years ago I was a long-distance runner, but one evening I lost my training shoes and so couldn't get out for a run. This depressed me so much, I turned to the fridge determined to eat myself stupid. What did I find in the fridge? Ice-cream? A roast chicken? No. My training shoes were there. It was clearly some kind of divine intervention, so I ate them, piece by piece over the next few months. I also went on a binge and became obese. I'm fifteen stone now.

Have you found God in any unusual places?

I was told by a friend that the person who had died was able to hear voices for up to six hours after death. Also why are they wrapped in a sheet before going to the morgue?

One needs to be sceptical / critical when trying to learn science and contributing to scientific knowledge.by research, etc. Has anyone experienced the contradiction between faith and science? Faith means believing something without proof, but any true scientist cannot do that - atleast, that's what I seem to think, although I know many famous scientists who were religious. I don't like the view that we must "segregate" the two - faith and science - into two "compartments" in one's mental life, because this implies duplicity in one's thinking patterns. Is faith required to explain what science cannot? If so, are we justified in pursuing faith, or should we pursue science alone, since it gives fact, rather than fantasy? I understand the importance of "the moral of the story", in religion - one must not throw the baby (the moral) out with the bath water (the story which is fiction / metaphor). But I hate going only half-way in religion - ie., not taking the Bible as literal truth.

I was surfing around the site and realized that if one asks a question pertaining to god or allah, whatever; that the bible thumpers are so quick to jump down your throat and judge you? They come off with the "you are going to hell!" crap and alot of them put you down. I thought being 'close to the lord' was supposed to make you a better person? Why is it you see them being the rudest alot of times? I didn't see alot of atheists or agnostics hanging around to tell them how horrible they are whenever they ask a question so why do they feel they must?

Before you bible borgs start jumping down my throat remember, you are supposed to love everyone.

why do so many people take soo much belief in so called god...and believe that most of what's written in the bible is true...when in reality...bible was written by a man...and SO many people don't take into fact that Mohammad could as easily been crazy and just hearing things...not GOD what if some guy came up to any of you today and told you he was hearing voices in his head and was claiming it was god itself....of course you would think he is crazy.... so why should you believe that *mohammad* actually heard voices from so-called GOD????
and to be clear..i don't have anything againist Christians....i just think you all shouldn't take so much into such nonsense...

I've seen many answers that people give regarding athiests and they are all quite negative. Why be so judgemental or just plain old mean?
