Just for one day, I wander what would happen if we had a Happiness Day, and we were kind to one another, and we showed our love and respect, and we smiled at someone, they say it all begins with one person, sometimes things catch on like wildfire.
Do you think it is worth a try?

I heard many people say they believe in the bible because of the values it teaches. Well, I say to you, these values are common sense values. Why do you need to believe in a book and read it all the time in order to learn these values???

Honestly, don't you think that there is an agreement in the higher order of medicine and science not to find a cure for AIDS so that these people will eventually wipe themselves out?

I ask because Christians post me answers like this

YOU WILL BURN IN HELL FOR THAT YOUNG MAN.

YOU BETTER REPENT BEFORE THE DARK LORD TAKES YOUR IMMORTAL SOUL.

Just because I'm a baptist means I'm going to hell? Does that mean I don't jut have to believe that Jesus saved me from my sins?

Where exactly is this clause that says I must be a catholic to go to heaven?

Those who would debunk spiritual beliefs keep saying 'prove it'. However, every culture has their own spiritual beliefs. Are the minority who say their is no spirituality so egotistical as to assume that they are right and the majority of people throughout history are wrong?

Is science a new cult then, based on a philosophy that denies the existence of anything that can not be physically experienced or tested?

If there are billions of other galaxies, perhaps bigger and more fascinating than our own, just for us to be in "awe" over, why does it only look like a fuzzy blip? why create stars and planets hundreds if not thousands of times bigger than our own sun and our own planets? Why not make the universe billions of times smaller?
Why did God create black holes? Why does he make stars go supernova and will he do that to our star (the sun) once his "end of days" for us occurs, or will the universe live on billions of years from now when the Milky Way and Adromeda (our neighboring galaxy) will eventually collide? Do you have a hard time imagining just how immense the universe really is, especially in light of the fact that our earth is to the universe as a grain of sand is to all the sands of all the beaches of the world and thensome.

In your opinion what is the Mark of the Beast? Also what is the Seal of God? Bible verses would be nice to back your answer.

Science has given us a realistic creation story, but Christians will not accept it. They will accept brain surgery, MP3 players, and flu-shots, but not the cosmological implications. Whassup with that?

With the events happening in Isreal and how the world is reacting (everyone has turned their backs on Isreal, even the US), what do you all think of the coming peace talks in Rome? 10 major power countries are reported to be meeting together for peace talks and a coalition to simultaneously enforce whatever agreement is made.

This for Christians goes right along with Daniel 7 and Revelations, on happenings right before rapture and the build up of things for the antichrist.

What is your take on this?

The slave traders in Africa were all muslims who sold the blacks to the new world, so why do blacks then follow their religion? Blacks instead take it out on the caucasion race whenever they have the time to discuss it. Why not blame the muslims who rounded them up in the first place and sold them out of Africa?

In no part of the bible does Jesus condemn homosexuality. So much for ""christianity"" being the teachings of jesus. Also when judas kissed jesus there was no acount of jesus backing away so he must have been accustomed to that sort of thing.

I feel that there is something bad inside me, a darkness, a sinfulness that makes me a bad person. No-one else seems to see it, they just see the surface where I look like a good person, but I know I'm not, not really. I don't deserve for anything good to happen to me, I deserve to be punished. I self harm, I feel like when the blood comes out it takes some of the badness away, and if I do it enough maybe one day I'll feel like I'm an ok person.

I used to believe in God and I became a Christian when I was 14 (I'm 24 now) but over the past couple of years I feel like I'm not good enough for God to love me anymore. I still believe in God, and I believe that He will forgive people, even if they do terrible things - but I can't seem to accept that forgiveness for myself and I haven't even done anything particularly bad. How can I accept His forgiveness again like I used to?
