How many of you are at work? Do you realize you are stealing from your employer at this very moment by answering this question? Of course this is Null and Void if you are an Atheist, because Gods laws mean nothing to them...they are just breaking a federal law.

"If a man has a stubborn & rebellious son who does not obey his father & mother & will not listen to him when they discipline him, his father & mother shall take hold of him & bring him to the elders...They shall say..."This son of ours is stubborn & rebellious. He will not obey us..." Then all the men of his town shall stone him to death. Deuteronomy 21:18-21

I ask this not to justify the proclamation but to expose it & the bible as being at best conflictual. This book was written by failable men that were subject to the influences of their culture. To believe the bible in its entirety is the word of God is a dangerous doctrine & could potentially cause one to do gravely immoral things in the same misguided spirit that modern day terrorists do in the name of God. Without reason and the use of our internal compass we can even in good intent do things such as the Apostle Paul did when he killed Christians thinking he was doing God a favor. God is no less real by this exposure.

Or did the fact of her beliefs TOTALLY turn you off.
Some christian girls are really cute and sweet.
My friend who is an athiest recently fell head over heels
for one, he said something about her "innocence factor " it ended badly unfortunately because she wouldnt
give up the V card.

If you found yourself in love with one what would you do?
this is simply curiosity and not to start a fight.
Just curious.

I'd like to check out a local humanist association meeting, but humanist associations seem far less available in the U.S. than in the U.K.! Do any of you know of a good one (in the Los Angeles area in particular)?

It's estimated that there are 13 million jews in the world. By contrast there are 2.129 Billion christians, 1.476 Billion Muslims, 1.162 Billion Atheists/Non religious. Even Buddhists have 708 million (Though they claim 1.6 Billion.)
For such a small amount of followers (though you could say Jews are more of a race than a religion), how is it that they play such a major role in world politics?
Is it because Christianity and Islam have their roots in Judaism?
Is it because they tend to live in very close nit communities?
Is it a religion, a race, or a political movement? All three?

I have been visiting websites that have disected the whole concept that Americans just visited a Hollywood set and never really set foot on the moon. Is there any real credence to this theory?
