Why is it that the bible speaks against gays/lesbiens? Didn't God create us homo sapiens to love, support, and care for each other? How can God think that humans loving the opposite sex be a sin? I thought believing in the devil is a sin or commiting murder is a sin? Does being gay/lesbien automatically mean that you're with the Devil? Why are so many people these days are afraid of being near a person whom is gay/lesbien? THEY AREN'T CONTAMINATED WITH DISEASES SUCH AS RABIES OR STDS. Why are there certain schools for people whom are gay/lesbien? Why aren't there many groups in christian churches that have organizations supporting gay rights? Most importantly, why can't you be able to marry someone the opposite sex even if it's against the law?

Would He ask His Dad to let Her into Heaven? Or would He just give Her the free pass?

I'm a teen girl who has a very, very close friend who doesn't exactly believe in God. He is so important to me, and I care about him so much. I wish that he could know God, and be able to pray, and rely on him. He admits that he isn't going to heaven, and tells me he wishes it wouldn't bother me, because it really doesn't bother him. He also says that he believes religion is about individual spiratuality, but I really don't understand his reasoning. The circumstances under which we met are rare, and I feel that God has brought him into my life for a reason, so I can teach him, and make him believe. I feel that if I don't succeed, I'll let down my friend, myself, and most importantly, God. I love my friend so much, and I'd do anything, so that he could know God. Thank You.

I am thinking of taking them tonight. My friend just had a baby and she is 15 and very stressed so I thought that I would share them with her, so that she can come with me to the other dimension. But, what do we do once we get there? Can the baby come to?

It would appear that the U.S. government doesn't understand the grave threat Islam presents for the preservation of our democracy. Why would it issue a commemorative 1st class stamp for an Islamic holiday? Has there ever been a commemorative stamp issued by an Islamic government for a religious holiday of any other religion than Islam? A philatelist may be able to give some insight here.

I hear many Muslim apologists claim that Islam is the religion of tolerance. Meanwhile, there is a prophetical statement from prophet Muhammed that orders Muslism not to salute a Jew or a Christian (or even say "HELLO") until the other one does it first. And it also orders Muslims to force Jews and Christians to walk at the side of the road and leave the better part of the road for Muslims.

My question is that if Muslims treat Jews and Christians with tolerance, are not they violating what their prophet order them?

(by the way, the statement is in Sahih Muslim Vol. 2 No. 4030)

I asked the question that way to get your attention. Do you believe that morals are religated to the religious only? If so, then it would be true to say that all religiuos people are moral. As an atheist, I have had the slings and arrows of of religious people and groups thrown at me. I'm not complaining, just wondering the logic here. I live and profess an extremely high moral life. There is right, and there is wrong. Why do some people believe that I cannot differentiate the two unless I believe in GOD? There are absolutes in right and wrong. There are also grey areas. I believe the truely moral, religious or not, struggle daily with the grey areas. I know I do. Your thoughts?

Jim_Darwin asked about the South Park character Timmy, who cannot say anything outside of Timmy!, and asked about his salvation. Well many of you said that he doesn't count because he is a cartoon character.

Well, my sister has down syndrome. She cannot comprehend the idea of religion, much less the idea of sin and having to confess them.

Since she is unable to do this, she will go to hell?

How are we ingnorant if we chose to beleive in something worth believing in. If we put our faith in something that can be proven as opposed to something that is unfounded even though we have done our research and know the flubs in a more scientific way of disproving religion?

AND why intolerant. What happened to the free world of opionons? How are we intolerant if we accept follow the teachings of the word? Isn't it intolerant to disregard the christian doctrines? Would it be any betetr if we weren't christians and didn't indulge in the sins of this world?

The point of Intelligent Design is not to enforce a particular religion on students, but only to give them the choice to decide whether or not they think there might be a Mind behind the order of the universe. Why is this such a horrible thought?
Shouldn't it be left to the individual to decide whether or not they think the "Designer" might be the Christian God or some other Deity?
