I confess to you all brothers and sisters in atheist land..I grievously sinned today. I ate a small round piece of pecan pie...and THEN...in wanton aggression...I also bought and ate a snickers bar (with almonds ), I fear that the calorie gods are very angry at me and the chubby demons are flying to attack my thighs and my glutamus maximus ( bottom ) at this very moment!! What should I do you guys ? Is there a primordial cure for this outrageous transgression ? Will I soon lose my toothpick with hair appearance and fall into the dark caloric shadows of chubbyland ? Shall I soon be smitten in the thighs and the buttocks by the evil chubby godz ?
Please advise quickly. I await your counsel fair primal onez !

I am not asking as to how you where raised. I believe in God and Christ too, but I am wondering what have you experienced in your life that led you to believe beyond a shadow of a doubt that God was for real and not just a story in the Book?

I am studying the book of Luke in the bible. Many sections of scripture are referred to as songs. I know what Mary's song is referred to as " the Magnificant" but I need to find out what Zacharias' song and Elizabeth's songs are referred to as.

The obvious answer would be Modern English, of course. But ME has had so much influence from other languages since the Norman Invasion that I'm thinking Anglo-Saxon's closest relative might be a derivative of a cognate language and not a derivative of AS itself.

I notice lately that there's a lot of totally ignorant people who are nasty or just plain rude to anyone with a disability. I happen to have challenges that I have to take medication for, and the meds make it hard for me to sit still sometimes...what I don't understand is when I have a hard time sitting still, the person next to me will move, like they are afraid or uncomfortable around me...and when I get on the bus, sometimes no-one will give up a seat for me even though I have two bad knees, bad enough to have to take injections every few months just so I can get around...and I notice that almost all senior citizens and disabled folks besides myself get the same mean treatment, from both kids and adults who are old enough to know better. I have been active in mental-health consumer advocacy groups, and I've even heard from others with mental health issues that they have been treated like outcasts by even their families...I think some people have stopped caring and become stuck up ..

Do you think we are in the end times?

For a few reasons and those will follow:
1) Hollywood won't accept that a movie like Passion of the Christ is good enough for any award and most of the celebrities and movie stars don't believe in God.
2) Prayer is no longer in schools like it was when my parents were going to school.
3) PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH - I don't know the details (correct me if I'm wrong) is REMOVING THE PLEDGE OF ALLIEGANCE FROM PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
4. You can't pray in school. I do anyway!

Would have it been perfect until now had the tree not been there in the 1st place? Why did God put it there anyway and forbid the first couple to eat that fruit? To test them? How could someone with no conscious knowledge of good and evil be capable of understanding the test? And Satan? He's powerless had that same tree not been there and used it as his tool to tempt the couple. If that tree had not been around, Jesus wouldn't have to be sacrificed. Everything were supposedly perfect had it not been that tree. But God who is perfect cannot make a mistake as simple as overlooking that tree which causes all these troubles of mankind. Maybe, just maybe, our idea of perfection isn't what in God's mind after all? What do you think?

Is it appropiate for the teachers to wear leather pants while teaching? I don't really see what the problem is cause it's not like you could see through them or anything, I do know you're not allowed to wear shorts while you're teaching but you are allowed to wear jeans.

I posted here beocuse I wasn't sure where else to put it, and was kinda looking for a responce mainly from the gay community. But do many guys have a fetish for sock, either of a certain leight, or a type, or fantacy involing socks, either on yourself or other? This can expand outside of the sexual world into everyday life, so don't restrict to sex fetishs or post on;y about sexual fetishe, becouse they can estend into other parts of your life.

...when you wave to someone and they don't say hello or wave back?

Like I was riding the bus today (damn cars in the shop) and there's this girl that I'd seen from work on the bus. I hadn't noticed her when I boarded, but when suddenly locked eyes, I smiled and gave a friendly wave. And would you believe this *****, not only didn't wave, but gave me a snotty look back. I've been nothing but friendly to the chick....why are people so rude???

Obviously this only applies to atheists:

Are you a strong or weak atheist?

I am a weak atheist.

not just murderers, but any violent criminal. it seems to me that they have shown they will never be a useful element to the rest of us..to protect the good, we need to weed out the evil...any arguments?
