have your god done anything physically to stop evil? has he ever grab a sword/AK47/Nuclear bomb and kill all the evil ones?
should evil be left alone until it destroys good? or should good fight evil to destroy it? or are you waiting for the return of jesus? dont you think that if jesus came to fight evil and finds that evil is abudant the job will be harder for him? do you think he'll wonder why did my people let evil grow so big?
if there's a god dont you think that god would want his followers to take some responsibility of this planet they are living on?

the big question is should people fight evil to destroy it or should people let evil destroy good?

Before everyone jumps down my throat about drugs, no I don't do them but If your child needs basics like food and diapers right away, you would not sell drugs to feed them when they are crying. Yeah, I know get a job but I am saying your child needs stuff right away" at any way possible, you would not try to provide it?(if that is your only option at the time). Or is it just me?

Matt 22:39-
Jesus says in Matthew that we are to love our neighbor as ourselves. But if we love ourselves first, before we love our neighbor, then this would be putting self before neighbor. Is Jesus teaching that we should be selfish?

Tell me your thoughts.

Were you raised to believe this? Did you read the Bible and decide it for yourself?
Have you questioned this belief, and wondered if it really is the word of God or do you accept it at face value?

Please do not copy and paste answers. I am interested in your thoughts, not in a copy of the Bible. I have my own copy here at home.

what would you really like the afterlife to be like? I'm not looking for scriptural quotes.

Atheists, instead of just shouting, tell me what your perfect afterlife would be. I know you don't believe in an afterlife but imagine if you could create one, what would it be like? Stuff that would make you happy and give you an eternity of being interested.

There will of course be idiots on all sides that will say something stupid, offensive etc. But let's keep it down to a minimum.

I have a relationship with someone who has recently started going to AA due to a serious alcohol addiction problem...although the AA meetings seem to be doing him some good as far as not drinking...it's almost turned into a cult like thing. It seems to be driving a wedge in "our" recovery. He has stated that AA encourages it's members to end relationships and remain single during recovery. This isn't an immature relationship by any means...and we share a house and a life together...I have been through a lot with his drinking and don't want to hinder his recovery in any way, but he goes to his AA meetings at least 3 times a day and is secretive and weird about them...he has shut off any conversation with me about past events or about what we're gonna do to try and move on. Anybody had any similiar experiences? Care to elaborate?

According to NASA in the next 20 years people will live in space. Reproduction will eventually occur, and with it adaptation to it's new environment. Over generations evolution will occur far quicker than it took us to reach our present form.

First thoughts that pop into my head...

Without gravity, our noses will not need to point downward, we may not need noses at all, just smell receivers.

Will we need our feet anymore? presumably in a zero-g environment pre-hensile feet like hands would be more useful

Child birth itself has been designed with gravity at its' core, what would happen there?

Gravity controls how tall we get to a degree; I could see us getting really tall and spindly too....

What physical changes could you imagine happening over the generations if we stay in space?

Others performed miracles.
According to the Bible Elijah also ascended into heaven
Adam was created without a father, OR mother

Didnt all the Prophets come with the simple message of worshipping God alone.

There are four people.

One is blind. One is colorblind (specifically, Protanomaly). One is extremely nearsighted. One has "normal" vision.

The normal vision person says there is a flower infront of them that is red and blue.

The extremely nearsighted person says that the same flower is purple.

The colorblind person, however, states that the flower is black and blue.

The blind person says there's no flower there at all.

So, tell me...

... who is the one that sees correctly?

Suprisingly, as a white male, I never heard the word in my entire 18 years growing up in an all white northeastern community. Even in the military, no one used it. When I moved to San Francisco, Oh my god, blacks were using it all the time on each other. I knew of the word. I was thinking to myself: How can you feel good saying the most despised word to describe your people. They were laughing about it. I've become jaded to it.
