I don't understand how people can't be vegetarians. How can you reason that your steak is worth a cow undergoing horribly cruel treatment before and during its death. How can you justify this process so that you can consume their dead flesh?

There were only a few antagonists, you know who you are. Thank you for your honest answers, I think there is hope for us afterall.
Peace and Love

I was raised in penticostal holiness I never cut my hair wore long sleeves and skirts never watch t.v..or wore make -up we didn't go trick or treating I was homeschooled. I didn't have sex but with one man .my husband... nor did I ever kiss another man. I never listened to country or rock. I went to church 3 or more times every week. no rings or necklaces, earrings or tatoos... for 22 years.....
now I'm not in church I thought I'd be happy not living the way I was brought up but deep down a part of me wants to go back...I've tryed other churches it just don't seem right to me... is this just the way I was rasied that I miss or is it reall God drawing me back?

Men's bathrooms have urinals and that's it. Women's bathrooms have couches, mags, lamps, coffee tables, etc. Why do women get so many more amenities than men in bathrooms?

I believe religions are the cause of wars!Do you think if people were open-minded about other religions and perhaps drop their own religion, would it help people live in peace.I believe religions are for people who are mentally ill and are looking for an escape.I may be considered an atheist yet are children considered atheist too when they are born into this world.(I think not)

See women, want to be an equal to a man, they want the same oppurtunities a man gets; but in achieving this they shouldn't get to keep their female benefits, such as not bein hit by a man, having their man put the toilet seat down, etc etc.

If you want to be equal women, then you need to put your own damn toilet seat down, and lift it up for us men, and you need to be able to take a punch like a man... no more "no hitting girls"

There is so much war in the world. There always has been. Well, at least that is what we are taught. So, why haven't we learned?

Wouldn't Jesus say the same things to them that he said to the hypocritical religious traditionalists of his day? Of course, I feel the same way about these fundamentalist types whether they have an R or a D next to their names.

The situation in Congo, as reported by Unicef today:

** 4 million people died since the war started there.
** each month 100.000 people are being kicked out of their houses
** each day 1200 people die, 600 of those are younger than 12
years old.
** 30.000 kids are used as soldiers or sex-slaves
** 1/3 of all the kids almost has nothing to eat.

How are we gonna stop all this? What are we gonna do? How are we gonna make God see all this? How are we gonna make God make the people stop this?

And please don't answer this with "Free will" or other nonsense. It's obvious that we humans do nothing to stop this horror, so I think it's up to God now. How can we make that so-called All-powerfull One finally do something usefull ?

If there is a God, He now has the chance to do something Good.

No matter who we are or what we believe in there has been hardship. Life, when being lived, is just that way, no getting around it. How did you overcome it?

Just because many Christians seem to use the word in a way that doesn't fit its actual understood meaning, how often do we hear a christian say 'but jesus was the messiah!' thinking that it somehow means all that they have invested Jesus with

We are all guilty of some form of the 7 sins. Mine is anger, but I have my temper under control. I do debate and argue in my head, but I don't vocalize. I did get rid of the triggers I had in my life, so it's easier not to vocalize. Plus I'm more mature and I think age is a big factor to calm someone down.

When they say that it sounds like aunjust god . In the bible from the beginning man sin's had to be covered by God . When adam and eve fell he covered them by making the first sacrifice by killing a ram and puting the ram's skin on them so he would'nt see there sin's ,that's the same system that God gave to the Jew's until he said he will give us a everlasting covenant which would be forfilled by the Christ the Messiah aka Jesus the anointed one of God promised through out the ToraH and the prophet's . why do Islam teah there god is are GOD When they don't believe in the same system ELOHIM set up even the garden of EDEN.

I believe it was created by Hindus to fight the injustice and encounter the atrocities committed by the Muslim invaders of India. I think it served its purpose and is outdated now.
