This is for people who say the world is great because of religion.

1)Look at air planes, they crash. What has religion done about that?
2)Why do people eat junk food? It is bad for you and does not make sense.
3)Why do people wear neckleces? It does nothing, but is a billion $ busines.
4)Why do peopel wear condoms? We should multiply and be fruitful.
5)How can religion stop war? Did the Us not make bombs for war? Did the christians not launch crusades?
6)Is it not logical to take donations from the poor and tell them if they don't, they will burn in hell? Then give the money to the pope for gold statues, and a mansion?
7)Are there and foot disorders that religion helped? Has religion ever done anything good?
8)If religion helps so much, why do christians kill, and starve in third world counties? If it saves you, why does it not save everyone?This is not reasonable.
9)If jesus died for everyone what about gays?
10)IF RELIGION IS GOOD, WHY DO PEOPLE STILL EAT PANCAKES?

People say "the OC" referring to Orange County. "I'm going to the OC." "I'm going to the Orange County". It makes no sense when you type out Orange County. I think most of it is from the show but a lot of people now refer to the area as "the OC" it should just be "OC". That would be like saying "the LA" when referring to Los Angeles.

Does anyone have any teachings or beliefs about persons with special needs and their close connection to the spirit world? My 8 year old son has down syndrome and I sometimes think that he has a gift similar to having a 6th sense. He doesn't have full speech but understands what is being said to him. He is very tuned in to other people's feelings.

You might have heard all the stories about how one person got saved from a disaster like a plane crash because fate or Providence intervened and caused them to miss the plane. Why save only one person when all can be saved. It's not like that one person was a less worse sinner than the people who were killed, or did anything to deserve special protection, because the bible says no one is righteous.

I am planning on hosting a Halloween party this October, and I need some cool ideas. Not everyone who is coming is 21. I don't want my party to turn out totally lame, but I also don't want people puking all over my couch, so what sort of things can I do? Are costume parties still cool? Haunted houses?

Why do some people want everyone to think the same way? What if we all drove the same car? What if the tests in school never changed form grade six to grade twelve? Why can't diversity be a good thing? I shudder to think of a world where every single person thought the same way, there would be no progress!

I've just been told to place my grandmothers old camera in the shed. My JW mother gave it to me, but now she seems to think it could be demonized(uh huh). She has just come back from an assembly(big surprise).

After finally escaping (born into,not baptized) from JW's it sickens me to think of all those JW kids not getting any sleep. They are told that demons are REAL! and are looking to attack "weak ones".
Even worse that Jehovah(God) may take away his protection if they sin and are unrepentant!
I have two nephews and a niece that are in the "truth".
Enough of this crap!

I recently got out of another 2 year relationship. My last one was 2 years also. Am I just addicted to the "honeymoon" phase of a new relationship? What can I do to stop this cycle? I usually find a new gf before I end it with the last one. I know this is not right or normal. Whats wrong with me? Any help and advice (not insults) will be greatly appreciated. I want a real relationship and want to end these rebound relationships! I dont want to be alone and maybe thats why i dont end the last before I start the new one?? Help!! Thanks

I've had the hardest time finding friends or a woman since everyone I meet can't have a good time unless drinking is involved, to any degree. Is there something wrong with me for wanting a non-drinker circle of friends?

I have watched many tv shows and read many books to where someone was discriminated against based on the fact they were Jewish or looked like a jewish person. But honestly I can't tell the difference. Let me know.

Why do they do this? Is sneezing un-polite? I don't think so. I usually just let them out....nice and loud.

I have lived a normal life. Married, had kids. Never done any kind of drugs or natural stimulants. Are there any more like me out there? The people I tell that I never even smoked pot think of it as an anomaly. I don't know. I just never felt the need to use any of that stuff; I don't even like to drink although I did do some drinking when younger.

Judah had sex with Perez's mom in Genesis,
Judah and the woman weren't married.

What is so wrong about having sex outside of marriage, it might be God's way of procreating the species and leading to - the birth of a GOD INCARNATE
