I had more of a statement then a question a little while ago.
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AtPPlU1K9hYXvjJyDBH8OZzsy6IX?qid=20060728140352AAoYsUk

One out of the many answers actually made me think... alot.
"Sounds likes me just before I became an Atheist. Whoever wrote that is one step away, maybe two if you count the Agnostic phase."

Let me tell you what I belive in:

I don't belive that the bible was this otherworldly book that was written by man with the power of god to instruct us on how to live our lives. I think it was a great story told that has been interpreted in many different ways (hence the different religions)

I DO belive that there is something... another plane of exsistance after we die. Not some supreme being that is going to judge me and smite me for what i've done in my life.

Should both Darwin's theory of evolution, which most scientists believe in, as well as the idea that Darwin's theory is wrong and that God created everything, which maybe 1-2% of the scientists believe in, also be taught in public school or at least something written in the school science book that states as follows: "most scientists believe in Darwin's theory of evolution, but there are other scientists who belive by their observation of the world and by their inference that the world was created by God and that the theory of evolution has never been proven."

I do. I see our society being so dviided and full of hate/prejudices. Why do we seem to focus on what our neighbor is doing more than what our own family problems? Are humans just doomed to ever be able to get along?

Many religious do not believe in anything that contradicts their faith. However, nothing about Evolution demands that GOD does not exist.

Do you agree?

The very thing I swore not to be come is what is now has come to pass
I should of seen the signs of what was to who I am it tore though me a wind burst of 1000 mile per hour
I cant repair the past but I use what did to make sure that it never happens again
Whatýs done is done an cant be undone there is no force that can change that an thatýs the way my tortured
Soul must endure what my path is still endure no matter how far I run I cant run from my destiny cause I could all the to next dimension an it would still catch up to me sometimes I wish could know what my path I know cause I like to be prepared for anything but know matter how I want it to bend to my will but it is the exact opposite I must to its will
But I also do have say how it will unfold to be the way I want to become an the way it will happen
But I must confront myself , past , an my worst fears I must stay strong

"The rabbis teach their fellow Jews that their Gentile neighbors are spiritually and morally unclean; that they are subhuman, on a level with the beasts of the field; and that they hate Jews and must be hated in return. Jews are taught that the Christian religion is a religion fit only for animals, and that its founder, Jesus, was the son of a prostitute and is presently immersed in a pit of boiling excrement in hell".

I know it's not seasonal at all, but one of the other questions really rubbed me wrong. I mean, there are several religious and secular holidays between Thanksgiving and the Epiphany. So why does a Wal mart cashier's saying "Happy Holidays" instead of Merry Christmas" mean that we're losing the meaning of Christmas?

Atheists and theists: just admit once and for all that none of us know anything about God or the lack there of, so that we can all move forward with humanity and put our efforts into larger endeavors.

if this is the case, then why do some say that if I don't choose or accept (insert religion here) then (insert suffering here) will happen? It seems to be a contradiction.

Please - this is a sincere and honest question; this is what largely contributes to my confusion.

I usually say sorry to anyone who is hurt when its not my fault and get the "No dont say sorry, its not your fault" reaction. Also most people find it hard to say sorry.

To me, saying sorry is like second nature even when it is not my fault. I have however been in rare (and i mean very rare) situations when I dont even say it at all when there is a commotion between me and another person. You might ask if I mean it when i say sorry and the anwer is yes. I feel that it is a way to show people u care, but why is it hard to say sorry.

Why Why Why?
