What might it mean if a person is almost always running away from something/someone or searching for something/someone in their dreams?

I personally don't have anything against interracial dating.
However, I have noticed that some black men actually think that they are hurting us or think that we are jealous of them dating white women.
Some men act cocky, as if we actually wish we could be with them.
Where did they get that perception? Certainly not from me.

Better yet, what is up with thier egos?

It's all love. You like who you like, I respect that.

...is that why some refuse religion: they've outgrown the need for parents telling them what to believe and do?

Some religous groups preach the "faith alone" salvation plan. If you have enough faith-then nothing will keep you out of heaven.

Interesting.

The bible says, "You see that a man is justified by works and not faith alone." James 2:24

What are the gay clubs that are most frequented around Manhattan for the 18+ crowd? I'll be up in the city in a couple weeks and would like to know specifically which clubs for whichever night of the week. Thanks.

Isn't it complete aggorance, ignorance, and intolerance to believe that people cannot live a moral,ethical life unless they subscribe to your religion?

I can't help it. I love Odetta and Aretha and Elvis's Gospel and Ralph Stanley and I'll fly away and goin' down to the river to pray and gettin' on my travelin' shoes and dropping my g's all over the place.
Of course it's all nonsense. But such beautiful heartfelt, moving nonsense. You could almost wish it were true. I heard a recording of shaped note singing recorded in the 1950s in the back of the beyond of Tennesee, preformed by people who probably had 6 teeth apiece and no education beyond the 6th grade but how they sung. With no instruments. Just one leader lining the words for the people who couldn't read. Fabulous.
Anybodu else love this?

After I asked my last question, I felt as though they were in denial. It is as though their mind will not allow speculation regarding various situations and their God. I can place my self in made up scenarios to answer their questions, but they seem to lack the ability to do it.

This was my question:

Notice their answers.. This is where I am currently drawing my conclusion from. I will note that not all Christians are this way, but there seems to be quite a few on this board that are.

Sometimes...the preacher man is absolutly right!

A Baptist Preacher was seated next to a cowboy on a flight to Texas.
After the plane took off, the cowboy asked for a whiskey and soda, which was brought and placed before him.

The flight attendant then asked the preacher if he would like a drink.
Appalled, the preacher replied, "I'd rather be tied up and taken advantage of by women of ill-repute, than let liquor touch my lips."

The cowboy then handed his drink back to the attendant and said,
"Me too, I didn't know we had a choice.."

It's nothing but absurdity from start to finish. But let me address just one facet of the story: The claim that it rained 40 days and 40 night until the whole Earth was covered up to the highest mountain.

That would be Everest (29108 feet). If you're like me, you've just gone through a really rainy day. Maybe 2 or 3 inches fell, a pretty hard rain. Well, in order for the water to top the highest mountain in 40 days, it would have to rain 6.064 inches---

-- PER MINUTE! Every minute of every day! There isn't enough water in the world to get it as high as Everest. What a ridiculous story! It insults our intelligence to be asked to believe it. What's more, Jewish authorities like Maimomides advised people that the first 11 chapters of Genesis are not to be taken as literal history. The Noah story is a retelling of the Epic of Gilgamesh, that the Jews learned of during the Babylonian Exile.

And don't get me started on the other practical problems. Or the monstrousness of God!

To me, if a higher authority figure doesn't exist in peoples' minds, chaos would ensue. If everyone believes that anything goes, then nobody would have a moral compass to guide their behavior. How do atheists regulate their bad behavior?
