I am a 20 year old Youth Ministry major at a Bible College. And to be honest, sometimes I get embarassed on behalf of Christianity at the way some of the "Christian Fundamentalists" act on here towards athiests, agnostics, and any non-Christian. Now, some of the people in the athiests, agnostics, and non-Christian group do say some pretty nasty things, also, but overall, whenever a Christian makes some type of question where they think they've solved all of your problems, how does that make you respsond? I have been educated in apologetics and I realize most of the answers Christians give to your questions are general and easily refuted, so hopefully the Christians on here can look at this question and realize what type of steps to take in order to just befriend those who don't believe.

Much love in Christ.

a public school in west virginia is presently locked in a court case against the americanCivil Liberties Union and Americans United for separation of church and state, the reason of the battle is a portrait of Jesus Christ hanging on the wall of the school, the county board of education has sided with the school in keeping the portrait but the ACLU say school is sending a message that indorses Christianity, should the portrait stay or go? why not put Budah ,the star of David, and other symbols to bring unity and diversity, why take it down, ? what do you guys think?

We are having only 4 children there and about 20 adults and the kids get pizza automatically and we'll have to pay for food for the adults. My husband and mother in law think that we should ask everyone to chip in for the pizza for the adults. Do you think that it would be rude to ask for them to chip in? Would that make me a bad hostess?

Seriously, this is on disgusting thing I've always wondered about. Whenever I go into a public restroom, there are dried out boogs on the walls and anywhere else you can imagine. For the offenders out there, why do you do it?

Muslims today employ terror in almost all their imagined disputes. Whether its the Phillipines, Chechnia, Uzbekistan, Thailand, Nigeria, Sudan, Somolia, Iraq, Israel, Algeria, Indonesia...

Only a very small percentage of Islamic religious clergy, in Islamic countries, have issued decrees (fatwas) against this method of Jihad. This is a critical indicator of how well accepted terror is within the Islamic community because fatwas are issued frequently, for any perceived affront to Islam.

Even the slightest perceieved misrepresentation of Islam is sure to get a slew of fatwas in response. So, if "terrorists" truely have hyjacked Islam as the ignorant white non-muslim tv anchors have said, then the immediate result of 911 or any terror act would be a slew of fatwas, many of which, would actually demand the murder of the terrorists themselves.

Where were the Fatwas? After 911 Colin Powell went on a mission to get some...and got none.

Can any skeptics with a sense of humor help me out? I remember seeing a humorous test of relion one time; one of the questions was "Which historical figure do I most closely resemble?" It then proceeds to describe the day in the life of this guy who acts like a real a$$hole -- he injects dogs at the local animal shelter with some sort of chemical that makes them go crazy and drown themselves in the river, he burns down his neighbor's orange grove because what he really wanted to eat was an apple, etc. Then the four possible answers to choose from were: Adolf Hitler, Attila the Hun, Genghis Khan, or Jesus.....

Anyone know where I could find a copy of that test online?

Do not take an oath, with the intention of deceiving the other party. You have been guided onto the path of righteousness; and this would cause your foot to stumble. Moreover, you would commit the evil of blocking God's path to others--and for that you would incur a grievous punishment.

-Qur'an, An-Nahl, Surah 16:94
