I would love to visit other countries but I hear so many negative things on Answers about the US. Honestly, I can't imagine living somewhere else. Can you? Why and Where?

I believe teaching religion to children is evil and should be made illegal before the age of 21. That way you could be sure that they had made up their own mind about it.

Rev 20:6 says:
6 Happy and holy is anyone having part in the first resurrection; over these the second death has no authority, but they will be priests of God and of the Christ, and will rule as kings with him for the thousand years.

Rev5:9,10 says:
9 And they sing a new song, saying: “You are worthy to take the scroll and open its seals, because you were slaughtered and with your blood you bought persons for God out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation, 10 and you made them to be a kingdom and priests to our God, and they are to rule as kings over the earth.”
My point is this: if all Christians are in Heaven who are they ruling over on Earth?
What does Psalms 37:10,11,29 mean then, because it says the earth will be here forever?

In major cities all over America inner city crime is getting way out of hand. Many innocent kids are killed by stray bullets and they are just sitting in their yards.
Don't say to throw more money at these people - they have had welfare for generations and it hasn't helped. It has hurt if you ask me. Fostered a sense of entitlement and laziness.

stephen green of christian voice was arrested for handing out leaflets that contained biblical scripture in regards to homosexuality at a gay rally in wales.

if this is regarded as homophobic and an offence in law - why isnt the bible banned because of its homophobia?

im an atheist and couldnt care less if someone is gay - but if we are going to allow christianity how can we outlaw some of its teachings?

in a free country dont we have to let people give their opinions - no matter how odious those opinions may be?

homosexuality is a minority - and those that think homosexuality is a sin are a minority. Which minority do we protect?

I have been to the masonic temple which is about 5 blocks from my home in Alexandria, Virginia as well as watched them perform some traditional ceremony at my Uncles Funeral. They always look so distinguished and I have dated and even noticed while I was in the military men wearing the rings. I am clueless though about what the are, stand for, and etc. Just wanted a little enlightenment.

I'm just wondering if there is a correlation between any religios beliefs and being under psychiatric care. Do you now or have you ever suffered from depression or bi-polar disorder, and if so what religion were you brought up in and what religion are you now? I read the article that we are possibly "hard wired" to seek God, and I am NOT suiggesting that religion=crazy, but often I hear how God is the answer to all sorrow and such. Without preaching, would you please tell me if Religion has had any impact on your mental state or vice versa?

I believe it is Jainism... I dont have any proofs right now... but will soon get them to you... There is one book by one Jain Ascetic "Shrusthi ka sabse purana dharm", which is in Hindi language... It just explains how all existing religions of World originated from Jainism. I'll soon write a blog abt it and let you'll know more abt it...

Disclaimer: I'm an Agnostic, and I pretty much only read the two or three Christian friends I have, and all the other responses from Christians I usually skip over, so I wouldn't blame anyone else for doing the same thing.

When starting out in life we often get with a roommate to help share expenses. Over the years I have had good roommates and bad ones.

The worst one that I ever had was a guy who dating a woman with 3 kids. At some point he decided to allow her and her kids to move in. It was a total disaster. The utilites TRIPLED in price yet he only wanted to pay half. The kids would eat all of my food and his girlfriend would use all of my laundry detergent and cleaning supplies. We had separate phones at first but after he ran up his phone bill to over $3000 he started using my phone. I didn't mind the occasional $50-$70 long distance here and there. Over time the bills were getting higher and he was comming up with excuses.

To make a longer story shorter I ended up locking up everything that I had inside of my room. His girlfriend asked me what happened to the toilet paper, the snacks, and the case of sodas that I brought home the day before. I was amazed at her beligerance!

Considering that He/She gave us a mind with which to do so, it doesn't seem unreasonable to think that God (presuming that God does exist) would be highly amused by some of the 'Off The Wall' theories that both believers and non believers seem to come up with when addressing the issues of religion and religious beliefs.
