I wanted to get everyone's opinion on many of the extravagant lifestyles of today's televangelists. Is Creflo Dollar's multi-million dollar mansion, jet, fleet of Rolls Royces and Manhattan penthouse his just reward or just excessive? What about other millionaire televangelists?

After reading some questions on this category, I have come to the impression that some Protestants here completely hate Catholics. Why do you hate us? Catholics don't hate Protestants. In fact, every Easter, in the Roman Catholic Mass, we pray for Protestants.

The Bible says that animals were created AFTER mankind and that mankind ruled over all of them. In that's the case then where do dinosaurs fit in?? Fossils prove they were here....

I'm looking for answers from both religious and non-religious people about the benefits of leading a religious life, but answers about the afterlife or about an alternate reality won't help me. What does religion do for you?

Ok, i see a lot lately that you guys believe there is no such thing as evolution. Well, what about dinosaurs? Are we to believe that man existed alongside them? And if so, why are they gone and we are here? And am I supposed to believe that the whole world flooded??!? I just got done reading that mass can't be created or destroyed, so where did all the water go? And how did a few guys build something so massive as to hold and feed all the animals on earth for forty days when a zoo pays thousands of dollars to feed these animals daily? So you're telling me that everyone is the son of abraham, or adam and eve, or both? I have seen studies about how inbreeding causes genetic shortcomings and deformities, mental problems(ie west virginia) so how did the human race overcome that and now it cant. So what color were adam and eve? I mean, I always see them dipicted as white, so what eve popped out a black kid and an asian kid "miraculously" because the obviously didnt evolve that way?

Are there some actual stories of real life vigilantes/super heroes? I think "Walking Tall" was based on a real person and after 50 + years of comic books you think someone would have tried something interesting.

The majority of people who are against gay marriage that I come in contact with are against it because they say marriage is ordained by God, and it is a holy right, meant for a man and a woman. Well, that's all good and well, to those who believe that. But what if you are an atheist? They're not religious by any means, and yet they still get married and no one has anything to scream about then. I'm not making fun of Atheists, not at all, just trying to prove a point.

Put it another way: How can sex be a bad thing if slaughtering your neighbors is a good thing? (And in the Old Testament, it is indeed a good thing.)

I answered my phone today and uncharacteristically I answered "Company Name - Yogi speaking". Well, the fellow on the other end of the phone was some IT geek doing some work for the company and this fellow is from India or one of those places like Appoo on the Simpson's.

Do you think he took offense at the Yogi remark - being that I am a Christian and all?

Obviously, once every four years you're able to celebrate your birthday on the 29th, but when do you recognize your birthday during the three years between each Leap Year? I've one friend and an uncle who were born on the 29th of February and both celebrate their birthdays on the 28th during the non-Leap Years. I've also heard of people choosing to celebrate theirs on March 1st. Which do you do?

At the very least, this question might serve to give an indication of how many Leap Year babies are members of the YA community. Any details you care to provide about what it's like to have a Leap Year birthday will be appreciated. Thanks!

Then when you point out that they are sterotypical, they never really admit that they are. Example: My brother was wearing his pants saggy, and my grandma said that was thuggish and gangsta. Wasn't that sterotypical? But it's not only my grandma, everyone does it. But why?
