Society & Culture - 6 September 2006

Not that I don't love you guys, and all. But every now and then it would be nice to take the time to read a really well-argued, carefully-worded, and spell-checked proposition on some religious, philosophical, or spiritual topic; which would require that I stop and think about it, rather than firing back with "No, you idiot."

And if I ever wanted to write something thought-provoking and insightful, it might be nice to have other people actually read it and respond intelligently, rather than typing a one-word answer so they could get their 2 pts and move on.

Of course I will continue to spend MOST of my waking hours right here. But if I wanted something more, where might I look?

(I saw this posted awhile ago and really couldn't help but agree.)

it seems like non-white women love their men more and are more proud of their race and heritage, even though historically, their men have failed them, since virtually all non-white countries are poor (except Japan, which became rich through western education).

And why is it that white women are so often ungrateful and often turn their back on their men and their heritage(feminism), even though the white men provided them with a life of wealth and personal liberties (compared to non-white women)?

I truely think its time white men expand their horizons, Asian women for instance usually are appreciative and have the qualities men like.

I always see them posting in a Religous topic. Making no points just blabing there is no god oh your fools blah. So why are they such zealots on their beliefs? And to the atheists reading I challenge you to set proof.

Just wondering. With computing power as it is now, some major, astrological calculations should only be a few clicks away. So, other than life insurance websites where they give you an extra 20 years when you're a vegetarian non-smoker, any ideas?
Thanks.

...what is the "usual" or "preferred" stance regarding Jesus? I realize that with Reform Judaism it is acceptable to have differing beliefs on a wide variety of subject/issues including Jesus...but what is the more "popular" (for lack of a better word) view of Jesus in that sect?

Give details on what the experience was like, and what made you certain you had found Jesus. Explain it well enough that even an atheist can understand.

if on the phone you can't tell if the other person on the line is a male or female because of the voice, do you call that person sir or madam?
if in person, you can't tell if the other person is a male or female because of the way he/she looks, do you call that person sir or madam?
how do you resolve this issue?

Did the Holocaust influence the current teaching that allows salvation for non-Catholics including Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, Confucians, etc.? Is the Church afraid of being labeled anti-Semitic?

I realize that most Jews do not believe that Jesus was God's messiah. But what exactly do you think of him? Do you think he was a prophet? A great moral teacher? A liar? A crazy person? What do you think about him and his teachings? what exactly do you think about him?

Hi, I'll try to keep this as short and sweet as possible, please don't think this is a joke.
Since I was about 8 or 9 (can't remember), I've had what you call (in conventional terms) "Super Powers". I know that sounds absolutely ridiculous, but there's no other way I can explain it. I'm 23 now, and have been dealing with this secretly for a while now. I don't know why it happens, but when I get extremely mad, or frustrated, or angry, my fingertips begin to burn really bad and something near by will catch fire.
I've experimented with this ability in closed quarters, and I've found that if I project enough anger or frustration on to a certain object, it will catch fire, somethimes even explode.
If there is anyone else with this ability, who has learned to cope with it, please let me know, because frankly I'm scared that i will snap and do something unthinkable. Also I'm tired of replacing shirts and household furniture. Thanks everyone!
