Shes still hanging on to the fairytale that they could actually work out. I realize the fact that they share a child but the ex (who is female as well) has no legal ties to this child. They dont have sex.....altho I am not naive enough to really believe that. But they fight and basically have a rough go of things. The ex is only in town on the weekends. During the week my life being involved with this other woman is pretty good. We have a great time and get along well. We are very much involved in one anothers lives--except for the weekend--when the ex is here. We still manage to have dinner or something but still.........I want the whole package and not to be a toss off when the ex is here. I know that my own behavior has fueled the fact that she wont leave her completely. So, any suggestions how to make her realize (or me for that fact) that I am not going to be around forever if she cant make the decision she has discussed with me on many recent occasions?

It could be anything from something believed in ones family or some doctrine that adds or takes away to / from God's Word. Or just a thought in your own head you discern as a 1/2 truth.

My hometown just blew a nice piece of change to erect a graven image of a religious slogan in our City Hall.
I don't have a problem with the Judeo/Christian superstitions but, by displaying the palcard "In God We Trust", does this translate into unfair treatment for other religions?
I was under the impression our system was set up to respect all religions, this leads me to believe we don't respect the "non-God" guys.

Last night, I answered a question on here regarding evolution, and another answerer gave a link for the creationist site www.drdino.com. I went there, and they use archaelogical evidence vaguely so that it benefits their creationist position. Do all creationists do this?

These superstitions have caused more turmoil and death than any other single reason on Earth.
Isn't it time that humans stop believing in the hocus-pocus world of mystical stories?
Isn't it about time, we to start being responsible for our own actions and quit blaming unseen idols.

Are nipple piercings associated with people who have a wild or sexually active lifetsyle? Or are even people who are considered on the straight and narrow also getting piercings like this?

Muslims have assaulted and even murdered Christians since the Pope (not even a leader of my Protestant Christianity) asked Muslims to please agree not to use violence to propagate religion.
Christians are asking for basic human rights to life, liberty and free speech, and for Muslim leaders to condemn violence committed by their members in the name of Islam.
The proof is in the facts on the ground. Islam is the worship of lawlessness: rape, bombing, and murder! Disprove this, Muslims, by acting to stop the violence!
I do not wish to hear from persons of other or none religion than Islam, please.

Why is that religious people believed they are so much better or higher up than those that don’t believe in God or Jesus? What gives you the right to say that I’m wrong and you’re right? Why do you hand pamphlets out on street corners, to me it seems like your acting like telemarketers, interrupting people as there going through the day. Why do believe that one religion is superior over the other? Aren’t beliefs things that are held personal?
Do you believe in live and let live?

Why do you always try and convert other who don't see your line of thinking?

What does this show if Atheism is such a horrible thing?

That means the other ones are religeous and god does not care if you kill or rape just as long as you say you are sorry to him.

Is it because of the way he was born? Eventhough the birth of Jesus(PBUH) by the virgin Mary(PBUH) was a miracle but Adam(PBUH) had no mother or father;so why Jesus(PBUH) and not Adam(PBUH)?

I would like to move into a community full of people who believe in the same things that I do. I’m tired of being the only one in my neighborhood, and being troubled by Christians, Muslims, Jehovas witnesses, who are all competing for my soul. It’s a lonesome feeling, and I want to live in a community full of people who believe in the same things that I do. Is there any place like that in Illinois?

What are the questions that theists (especially monotheists) can never seem to answer?

For example:
Why is there evil and suffering if god is omnipotent, omniscient, and 100% benevolent?

or

Where did god come from?
