I keep seeing believers saying "Hah, where did that atom come from." or " oh yeah, well how did this get created then!?" Yet the only take it back to the point of God. They never ask the same question about "Well, then where did God come from!?" They just answer "Oh he was always here." Anyone else sick of seeing this flawed logic?

"A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of the Lord: even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of the Lord"

(Deuteronomy 23:2).

I wonder who will be first to say "Oh but that's the old testament, that doesn't count anymore....... (except of course when it suits us).

I was looking at a tree with my friend the other day. I said to him "I like the way the tree looks as its leaves are moving."

He replied "I like it too, but I think that it is the wind that is moving."

This really confused me but I couldn't work out why.

So what is the truth? What is moving?

A simple yes or no will do backed up with a few sentences.

So far not one creationist has even attempted to answer the actual question asked. I usually just get a pro creationism rant.

I find intriguing that many christian women tell me that women are oppressed in other faiths and Christianity liberated them however someone told me that women in this faith must wear a scarf (not because they are pious but because they belong to their father, brother, husband, son, etc) or have their hair shaved off what's the ... ? I was obviously confused and wondered whether this answer went down to the fact that women are blamed for the fall of man etc??

California Grey Bears created a marvelous calendar girl contest, posting 12 fine ladies old enough to be members (i.e., over 55) in costumes appropriate to the holidays for each month. I think we should do one of the men this year. What do you think? After all, Sean Connery is not the only one who has mellowed well, like fine wine! (He's my prototype for the type, though.)

Many religions (and sub-sects of main religions) say that you have to believe in 'their' version of religion, or suffer (to some degree or other) in the after life.
So, is it better to go with a religion which offers a better afterlife (Mormonism says that you can become a god of your own universe in the afterlife, if you follow all their precepts), or is it better to be an atheist and say to every religion, "a pox on all your houses"

Once again, I'm looking for Christians to answer, though I know that some atheists will answer as well. I'm not going to discourage it, but I will say that I think I already know some of the answers that atheists use.
Christians who answer:
I would appreciate at least three things that makes the Bible unique. More ways that the Bible is unique will give you more of a chance for BA.

Thank you to everyone in advance for your answers!
