Is it important for religious people to capitalize 'god'? And do non-religious people purposely spell 'god' in all lowercase letters?

Do you get offended by either one and does it even matter to you?

last month 2 muslim brothers in britain killed their sister because she was in love with a muslim man who had left islam. Thats called a honor killing in islam, and the human rights commission has reported that such killings are increasing in britain among muslims. most muslim women in britain they say are living in fear of the muslim males in their families.
why is this?

as far as i see it more people are getting rich and more people are getting poor. soon there will be no more middle class just rich and poor, when this happens will the poor take action and rise up to destroy the rich.

For those that believe, they understand, but for those that don't, it's sad. This modern world is so.......technical [for lack of a better word] in itself, that people need proof for every little thing. God exists. God is real. No matter what you say or do, He is and always will be. He doesn't need to give us a physical proof that he exists. Well, heck he's already done that...it's called the Bible. Yes, people go to heaven when they die, yes people go to hell. God created every person alive on this earth today, but the sad thing is, not everyone is as blessed to be one of God's children. That's why Christians are here. We're not some brainwashed robots following something that's false, come on, people were made with more sense than that. We're not stupid. We have a choice to just walk away from God, turn our backs on him, but why would we want to after every thing he's done for us? I woe for people that just don't know....and I'm only 15.....geez.

Do you really believe all the nonstop terrorist stories on FoxNews, as if all Muslims spend all their lives blowing stuff up (the complete opposite of the Army/Navy/AirForce/Marines, of course). Or have you ever tried to learn more about Islam by getting a book from the library, going to an Islamic website, or talking to a Muslim?

Where Would Jesus Defecate?

I think he would do it in a church right in front of everyone. Most likely on the cross itself

They can use their own numerical system when they're talking to their own countrymen.

But I've noticed that even when they're speaking English to people of OTHER nationalities, they use "crore" (10 million) and "lakh" (100 thousand) and expect everyone to know what these are!

Why don't the Indians understand that "crore" and "lakh" are words in their own languages, not in English? Even if they are used in English in India, they're called "dialectal terms" at best.

In Chinese, we use "wàn" to refer to 10,000 and "yì" to refer to 100 million. But we'd NEVER use these terms in English. In English, they're "ten thousand" and "one hundred million". There's a distinction between languages.

Do Indians honestly believe that Britons and Americans use "crore" and "lakh" too? Because South Asians are the only people in the world who do :-)

(Just as we East Asians are the only people who use "wàn" and "yì" and variants, e.g. "man" and "oku" in Japanese.)

I am the kind of person who steps up to stop people from treating others badly. I will fight for the rights of myself, family, friends, animals, and people I don't know, even though I'm just a young woman that doesn't look too threating. I seem to have a strong need to help others in trouble, my fight reaction kicks in.

I saw a show with hidden cameras that did experiments about what people really would do and did do. They also changed places, people, ages, and even clothes. One example was a kid in a park being picked on by a group of boys. Many women did step in to try and help him. It was on ABC News Primetime. I'll link it.

So, What would you do?

Just curious. I am not looking for the standard religious line here. Anyone read any accounts of near-death experiences with suicide? Many books on near death experiences don't go near this subject. Share any experiences, religious included. All are welcome. Thanks!
