Whether it's the Crusades to rid the Holy Land of Muslim "infidels" in the name of Christ, or Osama bin Laden urging attacks against non-Muslim "infidels" in the name of Allah, or the large sums of money collected from suckers by so-called psychics, or the added grief from people using ridiculous "treatments" for various ailments, there is clear danger on a personal level from non-critical thought, belief in the supernatural, religion, etc. But beyond those dangers to individuals, do you see a danger to the common good of all humans (or even all living organisms on the planet) from such beliefs?

From people out there that do it, I want to know why you feel the need to say that. It's like saying "3 in the morning in the morning" -- and listeners just think you're dumb....

If skin color can have anything to do with racism, then what about dumb blonde jokes? After all it is picking them out of the crowd and insulting them like they were crap.

Yet people think they're so smart when they say "you can just ask so-and-so and I" -- it's ridiculous! I've heard partners at CPA firms do this! Why do people always talk that way?

Yahoo! Answers has separate categories for "Mythology & Folklore" and "Religion & Spirituality" -- isn't this redundant?

If somebody claims to be a faith other than yours (for example, you're a Christian and they say they're a Muslim, or you're Jewish and they say they're Atheist), do you immediately discredit anything they say about religion, spirituality, faith, etc.? Or do you listen with an open mind?

I have a group of black friends, and they don't like the N-word, and choose not to say it, but recently they have started saying Ninja as a replacement for it. This doesn't really make sense to me...how is saying Ninja any better? Can you help shed some light on this? What are your thoughts? Thanks for answering :)

Sorry if my initial question seemed very blunt...

Do you take jesus at his word?

He said himself that "I was sent only to the lost sheep of the House of Israel" Matt 15:24
That means the jews and ONLY the jews( in spite of what that fraud Paul later said.).

It appears that the gentile christians are worshipping a "god" that rejects them and even considers them dogs.
Hey, check it out for yourself. Compare this verse to that bs your local pastor is spewing.
