and long, so apposite quotes from their bible, is there a more boring tribe on Earth than religious people?
Just look at the yard long replies from them on Y answers, hang on Someone's knocking at the door- "Have I heard the good news"
Live and let live, fine- Why don't they let me?

Not ALL white people think this, I know that. But I live in Virginia, and quite a lot of them think that way here. I went out to dinner with a white friend the other night. Nothing special, just two friends hanging out. If Rocky and Bullwinkle showed up at that restaurant wearing pink polka-dot thongs, they wouldn't have got as many stares and disapproving looks as we did. My friend noticed it too; trust me, he'd have to be dead not to notice. Isn't this the year 2006? I think it's time for EVERYONE to recognize that racism is still a big problem. What do you think?

I remember reading somewhere that the name Santa Claus (from St. Nicholas) was actually first given in Coca Cola ads... I have seen Coca Cola greeting cards with pictures of Santa. Can somebody confirm or deny this? I don't want funny answers to this one please...

Are always trying to convert me, they love me and I love them but we just don’t see eye to eye on the religious debate. Ironically we are word for word on politics though… SO they took me to a local bar * gasp * to see a pastor named Rob Bell, he was very charismatic and actually very entertaining. What I thought was interesting and actually liked was he was critical of religion’s emphasis on doctrinal distinctions and really emphasized spirituality as the path one must seek. So let’s say we take the Church out of all our discussions about God would that change our debate?

I feel wrong. I feel like I try and let Jesus into my life. And I'm trying hard to lead myself away from temptation. And when I slip, I repent and ask God for forgiveness. And I really mean it. I've asked him into my life. And I'm seeing a shift,But I'm just so afraid of Jesus telling me to depart when I get to heaven. I have this constant anxiety every day. And It's killing me inside.

Come on, these guys are worse than the teenage-early twenty year old chavs! At thirty and older they are supposed to be setting a good example. Chav parents are even worse! And those kids who get their parents into the "latest craze of chavness" are even WORSE!!!!! The parents who fall for this nonsense and let their kids continue leading a chav life are crazy too.

They should all be thrown in jail and shot to smithereens. ARRRG!!!!

P.S. I am NOT a chav. I am a valuable memeber of society who earns money and pays taxes.. so that THEY can live like F****** kings!

So I'm not big on religion and I'm reading this book that mentions both Moses and Abraham and their relationship to the 10 Commandments. I'm confsed on who actually recieved the Commanments and how they effected each persons life. Could someone clarify the stories for me preferably in simple terms? Thanks.

The phrase in God we trust has been on our currency since 1800’s when a surge of religiosity after the Civil War. It seems in times of fear and insecurity give rise to a kind of exaggerated nationalism, hhmmmm sounds familiar. In the 1900’s when Theodore Roosevelt wanted it deleted because he felt it’s use was dangerously close to sacrilege, fast forward to the 1970’s when the 9th circuit court ruled it had nothing to do with the establishment of religion thus remaining our currencies motto. Governments and schools are still hesitant to display the motto because…well you know why. Ironically our founding fathers; the ones who established the separation of church and state, preferred the motto e plubribus unum (out of many one) as they were deists. Ironically the debate that is currently raging is not between atheists (we choose to sit this one out) but among religious sects who read a different meaning – and contention- with the words., it is divisive because of the increased diversity in religious movements it seems that this simple statement is quite complex and controversial. So what do you think?
