Ok if not guilty about internet, how about food, shelter,clothes and education?
If your answer is religious, how can that make a just and fair God? The ones that got a rotten deal from him, do they have the right to be angry and renounce him? Would anybody blame them?

I know a lot of people and they all shouted and screamed when they heard this. However, I have done a bit of a straw pole, at a local church, and ALL of those christians, bar none, wanted to have a totally christian society.
25% of British Muslims thought that the terrorist attacks on London was at least justifiable, (not justified) but at the straw pole I conducted well over half, nearly two thirds of christians thought the war with the middle east was not only justified but very nessesary to keep the muslims "under control".
I am neither religious or "psuedo religious" (talk to a born again and see what I mean) but surely this must be stopped?
Is it the duty of the modern aetheist to try and stop them or do we let them get on with it?
Is it even feasable to ban the "voice" of religion on the world stage?

It is an important and popular fact that things are not always what they seem. For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much - the wheel, New York, wars and so on - whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man - for precisely the same reasons.

Or did we not exist at all? Were we in Heaven with Jesus?

Please don't bother answering if you want to slander me for my religious beliefs.

After reading Harry potter several times I can see nothing wrong in it that should disturb even the most fanatical christians. fairy tales and fantasy stories have been cherished by so many people religious or not, for so many years . So why can't people leave Harry alone

i have a crush....but the problem is he is a gay or bi male. My friends tell me I'm crazy. But I can't help myself falling for him. He didn't know my feelings about him. I can't tell him becuase if I will tell him,he will ignore me all the time. I try to forget him but it is useless. Everyday I see him. Every minute I remember him.

WHAT SHALL I DO??? pls help me

I was an antichrist, I new nothing about Jesus or the Bible all I new was, there is a God. I believed the Bible was just a book like, "Jack and Jill. One day God came onto my room and put pictures' of all my sins right in front of my face, and spoke to me.

I always use a spray disinfectant when I check into a room. Is this rational? I have been called a germophobe but it makes sense to me.

To Whom It May Concern:
I am trying to raise food and funds for 12 local families. There are 31 adults, 5 teens, 8 children, and 6 babies. I will not go into great detail about why these people need help since each family is different, but I will list some of the reasons. Elderly on a fixed income, children with special needs, new babies, death of a loved one, job layoffs, 3 adults are going through treatment for cancer, some are disabled, and other medical problems. I have asked some of the local charities to help but so far none have been able to help with a group of this size. I have contacted some of the local big businesses but they only donate to charity groups, not individuals.
Any help with donations will be greatly appreciated. All donations will be divided up between the families based on family size and needs.
Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Amanda Fowler

get closer to his subjects than what was reasonable? Was it just his desire to push the limits, or was he pressured by the people who employed him to give the audience its moneys worth? I will miss that guy on Animal Planet and Discovery and so will my children, but could his untimely death have been prevented?

I'm in college right now, and I can tell you that it is seriously the biggest scam ever pulled off. People only go because society says you have to. I will *definitely* not use more than half of the classes I need to take. Tuition is outrageous, and the textbooks are literally highway robbery. The whole thing is just so ridiculous and ABSURD!! WHy the hell doesn't everyone stand up to college? I think people need an education, but the way it should be is that for whatever field you go into, you go to a place to learn THAT FIELD! Why take millions of useless classes that you'll never need? It baffles me that with such an obvious money-making scam like college, people still accept it! Can someone please explain to me why we don't stand up to this insane system?

so if i get some kids on a merry go round and get some bigger kids to push them around it clockwise...and they go as fast as they can...when the kids fall off they will spin in a clockwise direction right?until they hit something...that what science tells us...

So when the big bang was formed and exploded from spinning to fast...shouldnt everything be spinning the same way?

Some planets spin opposite and many moons do aswell??
why is this
