What do you hope to achieve by praying. A big win on lotto, the next horse race, discover gold, that religious leaders stop sexually abusing children, that you’ll be forgiven for being bad, or perhaps you’re so good that you’re praying for others to be forgiven.

When you go to church and pray, or kneel by your bed, or wherever, what is that you really want, that some imaginary fantasy entity will give you?

die. Do you know somweone who did die in that same situation with you, and do you feel guilty because you lived and they did not? Please give as much detail as you are comfortable with.

I witnessed my husbands murder, and had a gun to my head and it jammed. I feel blessed to be alive because of my children, but also guilty, like why was it him and not me, or why not both of us?

This is a philosophical and moral question.

What do you think a real person would do...let's say you or someone you know?

Would the power corrupt them, even if they used it for good at first? Would it be inevitable?

I honestly believe that in the real world, most people with superhero powers would use them to oppress others, 9 out of 10 times.

And we're assuming only one person in the world has them, so no X-Men/Justice League scenarios...

Damn I sound like a dork.

There's more Christian Terrorism going on here at Yahoo Answers than a person would think.And this is not isolated to Answers.Why do Christians act so goody-goody and turn to hate so vehemently?Look at this old bastard who asks about decapitating all homosexuals.And we are off hunting terrorists on foriegn soil.They are right here in our face.I wish they would come in my face.Ha!Ha!But they wont.They hide like ghetto roaches when you hit the lights.They are all over this site with their little snippets of hatred.I just want to meet one.Just one of them to have enough FAITH in their God to save them after they say this trash to my face.You know,if they really had FAITH,they would put their name and address with their religious proclamations...

I have been thinking a lot lately about where life and EVERYTHING evolved from. Its started bugging me and I know there is no real answer to this mystery. But i just want opinions. Its interesting but at the same time common sense that there is no end to anything because it will evolve into something else, hence the idea of infiniti.
I ask questions like where did the first thing start from? Something has to trigger something else in order for it to evolve, where do the triggers come from? These questions can go on forever (infiniti)

What do you guys think???

Whether it's reality shows such as Big Brother, Survivor, or Real World, commercials, TV shows like CSI, Lost, The Unit,etc, or movies(Not Another Teen Movie made fun of this topic), there's always that one black guy tagging along with the white friends/people. It's like he's there so Tv networks can say- "hey look at this we support minorities too!" Does anyone else notice this? I think it's kinda funny.

This girl I work with said that the only thing she doesn't like about public schools is that they took the lords prayer out. I responded with telling her that in the muti-cultural country that we live in, it wasn't fair to those who do not beleive in the Christian God and that making a few kids stand in the hall way for a few min is a good way to get kids bullied even more then what kids are. She then responded with telling me that kids who don't beleive in "the one and only god" should go to other schools that are ment for their religion. She didn't beleive me when I told her that segregating people would cause more racism and discrimination then what is already out there. I for one am glad that the lord prayer is no longer said in public schools (atleast where I live), I come from a family who does not beleive in the christian god. School is not a place for religion (unless it is that type of school). What are your thought?

Does that mean the bible was wrong when it said that God creates? That it would be more correct if it says God transforms?
