Some of these godbelievers are extremely violent.

Its good to have a place to criticize religious nuts without fear of violence. Truely unique in America.

Assuming your prayer is effictive and can change the person in anyway. Would it not be correct to get their permission to do so since you can change their life? Also assuming they have the capicity to say yes or no to your prayer.

In addition I'm not asking if you have permission from God. I'll take that you have that permission already. Again do you have the right to change someone else's life without their permission?

Have you ever been stuck behind some old lady in the grocery store checkout, who waits for everything to be rung up, then digs in that huge bag of hers for her checkbook which is at the bottom, then takes forever writing out the check.......etc.

How does that make you feel?
Are you a patient person?
Do you get agrivated because she's holding up the line?
Do you think that she could have at least written the date, and the name of the store on the check while the cashier was ringing it up?
Would you care at all, understanding that due to her age she may be a little slow on the uptake, forgetting that the cashier was going to ask her for money?

Or do you sit there huffing and puffing, thinking come on grandma, get your *** in gear!

Answer honestly please.

Please don't get mad I'm just asking: Do you think black guys who dress "ghetto" care about being respected? I heard this black guy going on about how "ghetto MFs" make him have to work harder. He was saying that if they wanted to be treated with respect then blacks as a whole needed to speak eloquently and not "ebonically." (There was alot more that he said but I'll just leave it at that) I don't know if wat he was saying was just messed up or...

There are several different sets in different parts of the Bible.

I know I am a good person. People tell me all of the time.

I can read peoples faces, and know what their fears are from the first minute I speak with them.

I allay their fears, and put their minds at ease. This is all without reading the bible.

I do not believe in god. I believe in good. I pray to the good, I do the good work, I say thank good it's friday. I have neglected god my entire life, because studying the bible will take away my time from doing good.

I believe in science. I don't believe in pseudoscience that makes false claims that are unprovable. Same as I do not believe in god, I don't believe in the unprovable stories.

I feel good within me. I get visions of doing even more good. I do not believe in god.

Can I read the STORIES in the bible, and be a gooder person? I want to do more good, and I want to be better at doing good.

What are the best verses to read, for me to follow, if I want to do good, without having to believe in god?

I often get a lot of anger from Black Women for dating White and other cultures of women and I’m told it’s because I’m a tall nice looking guy with a good job. Actually, most people don’t know what exactly my nationality is because I look mixed. I’m considered tall and have a dark Latin/Indian hair texture and complexion, but I identify myself as an African American.

Sometimes I go out with an African American female friend of mine who some people may not see as the most attractive girl. She’s a bit over weight, very dark in complexion, and she may not be the prettiest, but I think she has a very sweet and friendly personality. Some of my buddies would tease and joke with me, saying that she was my girlfriend, because they’re used to seeing me going out with tall pretty blonde girls, but it didn’t stop me from hanging out with her because my respect for her is greater than their insecurity. When we sometimes hang out, we often get reactions. White Women would often have a friendly supportive smile or sometimes a blank or confusing look, as did many guys. But the reaction from Black Women is the most interesting. Some would giggle and chuckle while others would most often make the most critical frowns and faces, as if their expressions were saying, “What the f*ck are you doing with her?” Two girls in particular actually burst out in laughter right in front of us. But what I think is the funniest is, if I was with one of my tall pretty blonde girlfriends, I bet they wouldn’t have been laughing.

Out of curiosity, has anyone ever heard of any?

Before any of you ask, no I am NOT considering having this done, I already have female reproductive organs, was born with them actually, LOL. A friend and I were debating whether or not it was possible for someone, born a male, to be able to carry a child, after extensive surgery, obviously.

If it's hasn't been done as yet, do any of you think that perhaps someday it will be a possibility?

NB: If anyone out there thinks this question or I am disgusting, repulsive, or sinful, please be so kind as to refrain from posting an answer. Thanks.

Atheists are simply people who have no need for a belief in god. Many believers find that a belief in god helps them to make sense of the world as they see it. To them, the statement 'I believe in God' is a statement about themselves, not about God. It means that at that moment in time, they find it useful to believe there is some sort of higher force which brings some sort of order to their lives that they think they cannot find on their own. When a believer no longer has need for a god, he or she stops believing.

Atheists only have a quarrel with people who claim that everybody should believe in god, because God is an objective fact which is supported by overwhelming evidence that the atheist is deliberately suppressing. This is not the case. There is no overwhelming evidence for god.
