fat is hard fat and some peoples fat is soft and squishy? I know people that have hard fat, but I just had a baby and I still have baby fat and mine is soft. So does that mean that it is a different type of fat, or something?

I've tried to stomach this show but it so does not represent my Society. I loved the show Queer as Folks because they acted like men but this show just gross's me out. What a disappointment. And such bad acting. Unbelievable. It hurts my eyes. And yeah, i'm a gay black male.

your boss tells you that you can go ahead and stop work because they don't need you anymore, did you just basically get fired? Or since you already left a notice, is it still considered quitting?

I do not believe in any god/gods, but I was posed the question,
As an Atheist:

"If you had to practice a religion which one would you be most drawn too and why"?

I thought about it a while, I teetered on the edge of some sort of spiritual land based tree hugging type of thing but in the end I had to go for Buddhism because it is not a religion based on 'Faith', it is a peace based philosophy based on self focus and learning.
In addition, because Buddha is not a god, Buddha was a man who walked the Earth about 2500 years ago.
I like the idea of learning from a man who got something right rather than learning from a book based on the words of a deity that bases itself on faith.

I’m an Atheist, but managed to answer this.
What about the rest of the ungodly out there in Yahoo land.

If you had to make a choice
(please feel free to think up your own argument as to why you have to make this choice)

What would you chose?

I know I have spelt it wrong but it's pronounced like that: Min-kia. I think it's an insult of some kind.

DIVINE INTERVENTION

Father Norton wakes up to a beautiful and sunny sunday morning and decides he just has to play golf. He pretends he`s sick and convinces the associate pastor to say mass for him that day, then heads out of town to a golf course about 40 miles away so he won`t run into anyone from his parish. On the first tee, he sees that he has the entire course to himself-everyone else is in church!

Watching all this from the heavens, Saint Peter leans over to the Lord and asks, "Are you going to let him get away with this?"

Just then Father Norton hits the ball and it heads straight for the pin, dropping just short of it, rolls and falls into the hole-a420yard hole in one!

Astonished, St. Peter looks at the lord and asks, "why in heaven did you let him do that?"
The lord smiles and replies, "Who`s he going to tell?"

I think picking up Japanese would be really fun (much better than French >=P), but I don't know how to go about learning.

I've looked it up now and then, but free websites that teach Japanese just don't work for me (a. because my computer doesn't recognize Japanese characters and replaces them with question marks, b. they don't teach a lot of the language (they'll have a few scattered words and characters) and c. I can't learn without a good teacher). I've also looked up teachers, but the closest private teacher I could find was in Michigan (I'm Nova Scotian). There are Japanese courses in university, but I'm 14 and I'd like to start sooner rather than later.

Any tips are greatly appreciated :)

They are afraid to take responsibility for themselves and their actions?

Do they try to sabotage Science and progress because they know they are bad people and they need their god to keep them from doing bad things?

Are they in need of a father/mother figure so badly that they are willing jeopardise the future for everyone?

Have you seen worse? Should people be put in jail and their kids put in protective services for allowing their children to see it?

Certainly not in the "Old Testament" -- too many concubines and servants.

Kinda makes you wonder.
If we have nothing to work towards, why work at all.
It seems a new world is just gonna be brought to us on a silver platter. Sounds like selling out on life to me. I seriously know who want to know about god and love, but we are here now. This is not a test of sin, it is a test of exploration and imagination. How far can we make it?
Anyways, peace anyways.
Oh yes to the atheists, keep doing what you are doing, you don't need heaven, this is your heaven, and I respest that
P.S. I'm not atheist

Your interpretation is fine with or without references. I already have a book called "To Pray As A Jew" by Rabbi Hayim Halevy Donin.

Anyone who believes in heaven of any kind of heaven (as a place not a state of mind like Nirvana or enlightenment), what is it like? Because when I was young, up until about 14, I believed in God and all that stuff but I was under the impression heaven was basically a big fun playground where you did whatever you want. Now, as a slightly more grown person I doubt that's how it is. It seems to me if you could do whatever you wanted heaven would be a huge orgy, which doesn't seem very holy. So do you become enlightened when you go to heaven and no longer have worldly desires? Or do you have to restrain yourself for eternity.

I'd like to add that I'm not converting and still don't believe it, I just wonder what the people who do believe think of it.
