Why not? Bibles state that snakes can speak.

I have consulted with several Rabbis about this matter. Who will go to heaven according to Judaism and is conversion to Judaism necessary?
The answer I got is amazing. Unlike--Christianity or Islam--conversion is not necessary or even valid--because strictly speaking you have to be born a Jew. So, what about the rest of the people? Answer--They have to follow the Noahide Laws.
Do the Christians and Muslims follow these laws?
Answer--Only the Unitarian Christians and Muslims follow them
in general. Do you agree?

Are people too afraid to reveal their true selves, or are they revealing their true selves? It's sad, really. What do all of you think?

condemning there actions or reporting there question is there?

This question obviously strikes a cord with some of you because it has been reported even though it is not offensive. Isn't it funny how Christians try and cover up their evils?

Hopefully your answer will be for world good not because you are pissed off at your boss or a co-worker.

Everybody refers to God as "He", which makes God a male. How do people know that God isn't a woman? I think the reason is that when the Bible was written, women weren't treated with a lot of respect. What do you think?

A lot of atheists pose questions in this group as they do not have their own group. Religion and spirituality has nothing to do with atheism but the atheists have nowhere else to go so they come here. In order to help them, I propose we all ask Yahoo to open a group for them so they can discuss their issues unabatedly and without being irritated by people who believe in God :)
What do you think about this?

You know what, I haven't been a Christian all of my life. Sometimes it's still hard for me to be like Christ and love and forgive all. Sometimes I just really get frustrated. I love all of you guys sinners, saints and the rest. Do you forgive me my transgressions? I'm being serious here. If not that's ok too. Peace.

Okay by saying there is no God(a being of infinate knowledge), you are saying that you have infinate knowledge of the nonexistance of a being of infinate knowledge(God)...

Okay don't get all confused...just think about it.

(sorry if I spelled anything wrong)

Oh and for the record, nonsensical ramblings and quotes from an outdated book of bronze-age jewish mythology do NOT count as "rational" nor do they count as an argument.
So, with that simple restriction in mind, I would like anyone to provide me with one single argument against same sex marriage.

Or do you simply not believe that same sex couples love each other the way that heterosexual couples do?

I recently came "out of the broom closet" with my parents. My dad doesn't care, but I think it bothers my (catholic) mom and she won't tell me. I she always talks about Wicca in a disgusted voice and ordered me not to bring any Wiccan "stuff" out into public. Is there any way I can show her that Wicca (and witchcraft) isn't that bad? I told her the basics of being a Wiccan, but I don't think that was enough.

PLEASE DO NOT ANSWER IF YOU ARE A CHRISTIAN TRYING TO "SAVE" ME!!!

He is God after all... the best he could come up with was sending Jesus down to live for 33 years, then get crucified?

LOTS of people got crucified it was nothing new.

Is it your home life? Is it the fact that you have subpar intelligence? I am here to help you like Dr. Phil.

All I do is casually throw out a question about the average person being a moron, and I get bombarded with worthless insults. Most of them are half-coherent, which is rather ironic in itself.

But to all the people, I say this: Please don't be angry with me or excessively defensive. I am here to help you--as in those with above average IQs--with your issues. (The ones with subpar intelligence are beyond help. Have a nice day!)

Most guys that are going bald seem to totally freak out and do really stupid (and stupid looking) things to try and hide it, so just wondering if women really care.

To the women out there, what do you think?
