What do you think I might have said to him or done to turn him against me.Because remember what I said the last time. He use to always say somthing to me when he see me or pass by me and also he use to flirt with me in a secrect way I geuss so nobody whould really know he was trying to hit on me. Could he be gay in the closet

I apologize if I offended anyone with my past question but I was curious to know where these IQ tests where made.

Another question I want to ask. You claim that Christians supposedly have less intelligence than non-believers or the so called atheists, but then you also claim that the United States is full of bright and talented people. Isn't Christianity one of the biggest religions in the United States? Isn't the percent of Christians bigger than the Non-Christians?

I think you are contradicting yourself with those statements and I would love it if you took the time to clarify me this.

Thanks.

Even the most harmless reference to the black culture instantly makes someone a "racist," whereas truly offensive statements about the Asians or their culture (mainly made out of blatant ignorance) often go ignored. As an Asian, this makes me maaaaaaaaad. >:(

Im really dissapointed in some of the reactions about Australia! Ive lived here for 20 years, and its not just farms and stuff like that! We unfortunately have murderers and rapiestes and terrorists just like every where else. Remember Australia is made up by the rest of the world. There is good people and there is bad people and then there is just stupid people!

ive never read a bible ive always belive that it never divine but psychological, can you convince me that there is one by your power of logic or perhaps science. no a days people just wont accept the words that come out of the bible but more what their instinc tells them. so how can you convince someone in such thing?

my son asked me this today.

i have read the bible, but i don't know the answer to this question.

my personal beliefs, be they religious or spiritual, do not enter in to this at all, as i prefer to (unbiasedly whenever possible) give my children the information i have and to let them make up their own minds.

he is 11 and i'll be letting him read the answers here, so i'd appreciate some reasonable answers!

Ok let's say I agree with you that Adam and Eve and all that is hogwash. Just tell me how the universe was created? I mean what was there before the universe existed? Surly science has these answers right?

Sorry if I seem snarky. It's just that I've seen people respond to questions asking about Latin translations in Spanish(usually very bad Spanish at that).

Yesterday I asked whether Christians preferred having a pastor with seminary training or one without.

Approximately 2/3 of the respondents either openly stated opposition to a theology-trained pastor or saw no advantage to a seminary education. Of those who did see an advantage, half of them were seminary trained or were related to a seminary graduate.

This was not a scientific poll, but the response of the laity seems so firmly planted in the irrelevance of a theology degree that I think further research may be warranted. When seen in the context of Christians who also want to use information in the bible as a textbook in public schools, a bias against scholarly education is seems evident.

What are your impressions from your experience?

First of all, anyone computer literate enough to use THIS is capable of pulling up or even bookmarking Wikipedia -- and I'm assuming they aren't too lazy to try there themselves.

Secondly, I think most people want to know what YOU know about a topic, not what you copied and pasted from / linked to on Wikipedia. A monkey can do that.

I'm not religous, but i was just wonder how you use science to prove religon is null and void when science is just as imperfect as religon, 100 years ago i could have qouted the best sceintists in the world to say that dinosuars were terrible, slow moving, cold blooded lizards or that the atom is the "smallest" thing is the world. Even today we don't know what dinosaurs were like or what the "smallest" thing is. no offense to you all it just occures to me that your fighting flawed fire with flawed fire.

The WAY OF THE WARRIOR teaches that warriors do not fight with others. They do battle with their own personal demons. Like
false pride, self-righteousness, lust, and fear. By overcoming these demons, the warrior can then live in PEACE with others.

The Way teaches that man has too much SELF-IMPORTANCE. If
someone glances in his direction, he thinks he's looking at HIM.
If two people are talking, he thinks they're talking about HIM. If
two people share a laugh, he thinks they're laughing at HIM.

King Solomon said that, "All is VANITY and VEXATION of spirit."
He used the word "vanity". Talking about EGOTISM, (selfishness and false pride).
"All is vanity and vexation of spirit." All the things humans do.
Feeling sorry for themselves. Acting bigger than they are. And pointing the finger at others. They do to make themselves feel better. Yet in reality. When they treat other this way. It only makes
them feel worse.

if the zombie jesus came up to you and asked you to let him eat your brains to prove your love for him, would you do it?

or have you already lost your brains, and that is why you worship a dead man?

It was the first day of my sophomore year at high school today. When i'm walking to science this girl runs up to me and just asks me my number. I gave it to her, and she ran before I could say anything. What does that mean and what would you have done?
