Get your mouth washed out with soap? Did they talk reasonably with you about it? Yell? Punish you some way? Or ignore the whole thing?

They both involve a series of unbelievable and impossible events taking place in order to believe.

There is absolutely no evidence that either one has any basis in reality, besides the word of their respective founders (Paul for Christianity, Hubbard for Scientology)

The only difference I can see is that scientology is newer and Scientologists are richer.

I do not want a Bible/Qu'ran/Torah answer. I want a real, thought-out answer.

What is so wrong about the Pagans to you? I am tired of people mocking us and saying we do not believe in something true, that our beliefs are only myths, that we're going to Hell.

Put the books aside and answer this yourself... what is so wrong about us to you?

Is it because we believe something different from you? Is that really all it is? The difference in belief? I thought it was being different that made everybody beautiful.

Atheists who try to answer this, please do no say that we are all insane/stupid for believing in something not real. You cannot prove it is or is not real. And we have done nothing to Atheists, at all.

So, please, give a thought-out answer without Bible-references. I expect all answers to come with some sort of explanation...

In essence this girl claimed to have raped by a 51 yr old married man with children. Since she could not prove that she was raped her sentence was death as premarital sex is punishable as such.

This is no joke.

The man who also had at least premarital sex did not get death but instead indicative of double standard 95 lashes. This is an extreme evil and I believe dysfunctional religious beliefs are the context for this evil. These types of laws and more will continue to spread throughout the world if we do not stand up to them now.

Did you know that according to the Sharia a girl can be married to a man as young as 9 yrs of age? I'm sorry but that is child rape plain and simple. These dysfunctions make me incredibly anger as they are creating tremendous and needless suffering.

Even if you don't understand reincarnation or the other possibilities, seriously think about this one. Just letting you know that you could never be anywhere you wouldn't want to be. Sure you could argue, I don't like school, work, the POW camp. But it seems like the mental state was always yours to alter the perception. They can't take that ability from you. You may see something as evil, but I see it as good. It just has to be understood. Things we are figuring out now through science seemed evil before we learned about them and looked deep enough.

I'm a grad student in history and decided to start learning the German language on my own. How long will it take (educated guess), and how much time should I dedicate a week, to learn the language fluently? What kind of study tips and resources would you recommend (audiotapes, books, etc) This question is for everyone, but especially for those who have learned German.

I heard many Muslims say that Islam have been trying to end slavery (for more than 1400 years). However, I found many prophetical statements (Hadith) told by prophet Muhammed that threatens any slave who tries to escape slavery that god would send him to hell and would never accept any of his/her good deeds!

Some of those Hadiths can be found in Sahih Muslim (101) and Musnad Ahmad (18446). Can anyone tell me how come Muslims say that Islam was trying to end slavery while those statements were given by prophet Muhammad?

Do you feel as if someone is a homosexual, no matter if they believe in and worship jesus, that their soul will burn in eternal flames and agony for thier homosexuality? . As if god ignores thier belief in him and only focuses on thier homosexuality to send them to hell. Im only 16 and i wanted to get a few opinions on this issue, becuase if that were the case, then if you lied and repented, couldnt god ignore your repent of your sin to send you to hell?

The person who actually tasted the kiwi fruit or other people who have never tasted it but have studied what others say is the fundamental truth about kiwi fruit and what it's like and all the attributes of the kiwi fruit? If a person is convinced that the belief he has about what a kiwi fruit tastes like is the same thing as actually tasting the kiwi fruit, how do you get them to go past belief and look to actually taste the kiwi?

I went to a vatican and found a room that wasnt in the map of the vatican and there was a black bible there. There was a chapter according to god. What the heck! Well i read on, its like a diary, saying. Hundreds of thousands of years pass by, i cannot find any love in this abyss of nothing. I must have something to love.I read on to find something peculiar.There is something missing in my life, even with all the angels in the heaven, life seems to be too good. There is nothing wrong in the world.Now dont you find that a little bit interesting, imagine that. God thinking life is too good.
It later goes on saying that god created one last angel in heaven, but it with a twist. He wanted it to have a mind of its own, to see what happened if he let it go.And that was luciferBut something happened that day, as you know there is 3 in one in god you know. Well forsome reason lucifer snuck in where god was and took his
powers, and then he had 3 of himself The devil son and the devils helper

UGH!!! I'll be walking down the street and see a man and woman holding hands, IN PUBLIC!! Where do they get off? Plus I really don't want to hear about your "husband" missy, it's disgusting to think that people are actually having man-on-woman sex behind closed doors.

I just don't understand why straights need to advance their agenda by always telling you about their close relationships and sex lives, it's disturbing really.
