Will all the Christians here try to resist the temptation to respond to the aniti- God/Christian posts? Will the Christians here, and any others who do not like the hate posts and all the deliberate bashing stuff, also keep posting, from time to time, a simmiler request to this. So that eventualy all the haters will just be talking to themselves... I know they can not be stopped from answering... but if all who do not like the hate and bash and bait just to cause trouble crap would just stop replying to them they would have no incentive to keep it up... just a thought, if any would go along with it...

I know it is tempting to just hit back, and I am guilty of that myself... but this all here has gotten way bad...I know they can not be gotten rid of...but they can be ignored

If you believe where will you go when you die? Do you believe in God or Satan, both and who do you side with?

Do you think your religion has answers for everything? Are there any flaws in your religion? If you had the opportunity to change something about your religion, what would you change?

Those questions are targeted towards people who believe in a greater force. Those who believe in "science rules" can still answer the question since they imply that "science" is the greater force out there

ps you don't have to answer all the questions if you find them tiresome, just stick to the main question

In the past few days, I've seen on PBS sprout, something where it was telling about the Muslim holiday of Ramadan. The cartoon narrator even mentioned the Koran as a "holy book".

Then a couple of days later, I saw one where a kid was talking about their Jewish traditions.

Here is the question:
Since that channel did this for Islam and Judaism, do you think they would give the same time and respect to the Christian tradition and mention our holy book, the bible?

I doubt it because people are even paranoid to mention the word Christmas. Or if they celebrate it, it has to be without any reference to Christianity and only about Rudolf the red-nosed raindeer or Frosty the Snowman. I think there is a strong double standard where we have to be tolerant of all religions except Christianity. What do you think about it?

Woodpeckers have very long tounges perhaps 10 inches long, often with barbs at the ends for stabbing insects, they often use a glue for the toung to help pullin the insects and a glue sovent in the stomach to unglue the tasty treat and digest it.

Problem... some woddpeckers have tounges that stick out like us form the mouth, and the european woodpecker has a tounge that starts in the throat and wrapps around the back of the head, down the beak and out....

how did it micro evolve
1) created with the tounge wrapped around and micro evolved to have some woodpeckers today with ordingary tounges sticking out
2) naturalist evolution, tounges started as other birds and then went backwards wrapping around th ehead and down the beak and out... and how would a series of gradual changes explain this?

According to Buddha [paraphrased], whe should, "Believe nothing just because a so-called wise person said it. Believe nothing just because a belief is generally held. Believe nothing just because it is said in ancient books. Believe nothing just because it is said to be of divine origin. Believe nothing just because someone else believes it. Believe only what you yourself test and judge to be true."

I think Bhudda is speaking religionists, non-religionists, and anti-religionists. Is he right, or should we fall mindlessly - and behaviorally - into the dogmatic belief systems of others?

Why sex? Logically speaking why would we not stay a-sexual, why rely on something outside of ourselves for something as vital as reproduction. There are frogs that reproduce without a partner, this is logical self sufficiency, why logically speaking would we open ourselves to dependancy?
