the weak minded? Before I get blasted for this one, what I mean is that some people are not strong enough in their faith, or minds to deal with certain aspects of reality. No, I am not saying all Christians are like that. I just saw a question posted about a Ouija board and one of the answers made me wonder this. Could the very thing we agnostics/Atheists see as ignorance inherent in the belief systems of others be intentional? What do you think?

As has become custom for me, if you have any personal shots you want to take at my character, please add them here as I think you should get a head start...

I'm not Catholic, but I found a medalion of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, and I was wondering who/what she is the patron saint of? How/what is she supposed to protect? I did make alot of $ today, and I wasn't in trouble when I thought I was. Did she save me?

Is it just me, or do some Christians seem to be so diluted with their book that they don't truly listen to their spirit?

They rely on a book to tell them how they -should- feel and how they -should- act instead of listening to what their spirit says. They don't dare think outside the box, or in this case, out side the rectangle to find their own answers. For instance: I don't believe that someone will go to hell because they don't believe in Jesus or God. That's ridiculous because that means 80% of the world is going to hell. I also don't believe in the Adam & Eve story. However, I believe that Deity created evolution.

Please explain this to me. And for the love of God, if you say "Because the Bible is the truth", you're just admitting that you can't think outside your rectangle.

I know a lot of you in the Mythology & Folklore section are knowledgeable. So I ask of you... Please help me stop this Leprechaun before it destroys my neighbourhood! I am so frustrated. No one will beleive me. Not even my parents. The first time I saw this little Leprechaun was about the 2 months ago when I first moved into my neighbourhood. He stands about 4 foot tall and has a childlike appearance. He has blonde hair and a slightly tanned skin tone. His clothes are similar to human clothes but are often bring in color. He has infiltrated the house next to me. My neighbours don't seem to notice him. I have been following this leprechaun for awhile now. He goes to the local school and is undetected. I tried following him inside, but the teachers told me to get out or they would call the police. I saw him play kickball with a bunch of kids and I pushed him down and started punching him. I screamed "I got him!" But the kids around me were terrified. The cops arrested me and accused...

I have seen many people pose the question to Athiests of what would you did if Jesus appeared to you, or if you died and realized that it was all (religion) true... My answer ( I would be shocked and in awe...then i would be a little pissed that the rules werent better outlined, and try and get god to rememeber all the 500 million people that dont know about him and that it is cruel to condemn his children to hell...) I ask you the same question... what if the Bible is just a book... Perhaps it is the word of God, but what if it is just a book, a well written collection of morality plays, and stories on how to lead a right life.. but just a book? I really want a contemplative answer, not answers of "your damnable, or read it and you'll see its truth." I can accept the idea that I might be wrong, but can you?

Assuming that this is true, then would a few indiscretions in the Bible not have the same effect? If in their the indiscretions lie then you can't use this book to answer this question.

I mean who gives you the right to play God?
If its a womans body, and you are a male then youre acting as though shes property, as for the death penalty most of the people on death row are christians.

I am kinda curious because my Mom played it once when she was young... What's cool is that she asked for the initials of the person she was gonna marry... And walla! It gave her an accurate answer... I mean, that's pretty amazing... I'm "In love" right now with this person... And I wanna ask the same question to see if she's the one... Hmmm... Pretty stupid, huh? Anyway... Should I play?
