Regarding your question about Madonna, Madonna's public behaviour does NOT deserve the publicity the media accords it. Why can't the media focus its resources on promoting all the things that foster social, MORAL and spiritual (not necessarily specific religion) conscious society instead of weirdo artist on two pieces of wood at a regular angle to each other? Let us get our values right instead of making money and "freedom" of expression our religion. The question I have is this: Does one have to provoke outrageous contoversy to make money? Where is the right of the religious faithful? The mainstream media are co-consipirators in this mundane business of money and infamity over reason.

I mean people in the US talk about latin americans as other race. And being latin american means "to live in a country in america where people talk a latin language (spanish, portuguese, italian, french or romanian). I'm from Argentina, and I'm white. Here you can also find mestizos or white. But being latin american is not a race. Do you understand what I say?

I was on the bus yesterday, and some retarded kid walked by me and screamed "MY BALLS ITCH!!!" right in my damn ear. Then he puked on my lap and started asking me all kinds of questions about basketball. I know God works in mysterious ways, but what the hell is this all about?????

If being a fundamentalist means you take everything back to the roots of the beleif then why is that so hated and feared? Is it so bad to find absolute truth in something rather than believing all truth to be relative. If you don't believe in the fundamentals of something how can you really believe in it at all?

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace,
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy;

O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love.

For it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

Notice how it doesnt say anything like, "Where there are non-christians, let me convert them"?

Do you think St Francis was an evangelist who went about converting ppl with biblical quotes or do u think he won people by love and compassion.

It fits the criteria for delusion - a belief in something we can't perceive with our sense, can't experience in any objective way and with no supporting evidence or argument. If I thought there was a pink yeti in my attic you'd think I was crazy, especially if I went on to say it was directing my actions.

Why do we have respect for this? We'd cleary think someone was nuts if it was anything other than religion. I'm sorry if that's a bit harsh, I used to have more respect/moderation when it comes to criticising religion, but I'd like an answer to this question. It's making me increasingly angry that our politicians are vocally deferring to an invisible man in the sky, getting directions from said invisible man, and shaping domestic and foreign policy around this totally unsubstantiated belief.

this second question depends on how you answer the first one, if it is possible to have a same sex soul-mate being a heterosexual, how would that affect your relationships with the opposite sex?

A police officer allows a cry for help from a nearby rape victim go unanswered.
A parent watches as their child plays in the middle of a busy road.
A friend lets another friend drive drunk in the middle of the day through a residential zone.
A government allows its territory to be annexed by an enemy who murders the current residents, without so much as a word of protest.

Would you respect these people for allowing freedom of choice, or would you condemn them for monsterous negligence on their part? Doesn't power and station give them responsibility?

... if you're not sure why this question is in the religion section, please just give it a little more thought.

Is it not utterly evil to expect people to live & die alone devoid of affection as not married as no perfect partner worht marrying or unable to pull the one they loved ?

Is it not better for people to have boy or girlfriends or simply someone to share a night with so not lonly and hurt. And to enjoy all their experinces of each life age zone... ie the uni parties, the high school prom and lovers cliff cars, spin the bottle, the live in things etc.

Whilst waiting for someone special & hopeing each next one is the one?

The last post all the chrisitn scum said they wanted people to die alone as virgins having hever felt a hug in their life or missing out on all the experiences everyone else was doing...till it was too late... i mean what 50 year old does it on the back seat of a car or snog in a cinema?

Oh and taking into account condoms and the pill so no pregncy or aids... and no the virus is not small enough to apss though unless oil gets on the rubber

I really don't hate liberals, I just wanted to grab some attention. I also wanted to test out a theory. What I can't stand are the hedenistic, those who follow their own desires rather than living a life a self-denial. Godless or not, those who don't satisfy their every need are better people than those who are. They are also better thinkers and benefit society. Start your answer with penguins or I won't even read it. I don't know how people get up if they are only living for themselves. I see it every day on the TV and in government. Just a few decades ago, democrats and republicans dissagreed, but they got along because they all wanted to help the country. What happened? That's what I want to know. When did America stop caring about eachother?

From what have read in the bible, the soul is our enitre self as a being. It Jesus is the life and we only get immortality through him, why do many Christians say the soul never dies? Either we are immortal or we're not and have to resurrect. If God gives eternal life to the saved, he isn't also going to give eternal life to the unsaved, is he? I have one big question for you:
If eternal life can be given, cant't it also be taken away?

Why limit our god's power?

I am Pagen and some people think that all that means is I believe in witchcraft. I believe in a higher power and I think that just believing in something should be what matters. Just because my religon celibrates nature more than a "God" does that make it wrong? Why?
