I tried praying to god but he won't respond. I've been waiting for him to contact me for years, but still nothing. Go figure.

Either we are ALL `figuratively` Gods children or J.C must have had a mum ? Or, if the trinity are one, God gave up what? A body?
Sorry to keep on at you Xtians, there are just soooo many oddities in that book...

Ones that make you think? Ones that challenge you and your beliefs? Ones that are aimed at brightening your day?

How come some people that smoke, like don't even care how they exhale it? Like I mean, you see some people just breathe it out their nose and just talk while it's in their lungs, and don't seem to care about it. I know most people just blow it out, but a lot of people that I see, just act like they dont even care.

1) How did an elderly man gather two of every animal (don't forget insects, every kind of worm, predatory birds, venomous snakes, etc) on the planet?

2) How did said elderly man feed, and know exactly what to feed, these animals?

3) How did he keep them all alive, and seperated?

4) How did he get rid of all the sh*t?

5) How did this elderly man navigate such a large vessel up the Amazon, through the treacherous Arctic waters, and down the shallow Nile river, all by himself?

6) How did he re-distribute these animals after the flood?

7) If he indeed did gather 2 of every animal on the planet, wouldn't he be the original person to discover every continent on the planet?

8) When actually telling people the story of this Ark, do you actually expect people to believe it?

One guideline when answering. Don't say that "God helped him," that's a cop-out, and you know it.

I know it probably sounds like a silly question but is it a sin to kill an insect? Like swatting a mosquito or a fly?

A PRIEST has died after trying to demonstrate how Jesus walked on water.

Evangelist preacher Franck Kabele, 35, told his congregation he could repeat the biblical miracle.

But he drowned after walking out to sea from a beach in the capital Libreville in Gabon, west Africa. ...

Why is it that those with the least, have these 'pie in the sky' expectations. That either god will save them or they'll hit the lottery. I happen to qualify as "poor" and do not participate in either. I guess if good old fashioned hard work doesn't get me there, nothing will.

In the news today there was a quote:

"Girls as young as five are sensitive about their bodies in a "weight-hostile" environment that equates popularity and attractiveness with thinness, an international conference of experts has heard."

What do you think of the fact that girls as young as 5 years old are concerned about weight? What does this say about our culture? what can we do about it?

I was once conned out of 60$ by one. Stupid me. Since then, I always say: "Sorry, I already gave at the office".

P.S.: I am talking about aggressive panhandling here. "Homeless" is not more politically correct. It is plainly inaccurate. Bums are not necessarily homeless. One bum that I see all the time is literally living next door. He is not homeless by any means, but still a bum.

Hi I am hoping to go on an exchange to Italy ... but after reading some posts it sounds like the males are sexist players... I also heared that they are abusive and controlling. I do not want to imerse myself in a culture that condones this behaviour!

Thank-you for your help!

We have a choice YOU KEEP REMINDING ME-SO DOES GOD- either he can forgive Satan by reversing TIME and there-by ending Misery suffering agony DEATH-or perhaps he can himself commit suicide as in if this is the best he has to offer those of us created in his image-where I for 1 have had to bare witness to the aforementioned autrocities-I would rather he dies and ALL Suffering ended! But for those of you that are leading a great life ritght now because you are protected-YOUR DAY WILL COME AND YOU WILL WITNESS Cairnage and then tell me YOU Worship a Loving God-but for me it is easier to see Life as not having a God because no perfect form of Love woulda had something revolt to create this torment and therefore I see life as caotic and find it my personal resolve to try to make just this world a lil better for my having been here. But I see religions placing constraints on good intentions because of the limited capacities from which they were created. Not even Jesus lived without PAIN!
