Society & Culture - 21 September 2006

After reading answer to a question recently I just wondered if being an athiest means that u don't celebrate Christmas
Presumably u don't as this is a celebration of the birth of Christ. So wot do u do on all these days that u don't celebrate like xmas, easter, pancake day?
And I suppose u don't celebrate New Year either as our calender years are also based on Christ's birth? Wot calender do u work off?
I am really intrigued on this one!!

It's one thing to point a gun at someone and say "get back or I'll shoot!" THAT is called self-defense.

It's another thing to point a gun at an innocent nun and shoot her to death. It's another thing to burn down embassies and churches. It is another thing to send suicide bombers to slaughter innocent people.

How can you people claim you are acting in self-defense? Your so-called prophet told you not to kill anyone unless you can justify it. Is revenge a form of justification to act on your unadulterated fury and rage?

im a non beleiver.. i'll be honest from the start of this question. But from reading the various questions christians beleive that Jesus is due back to earth soon to rule again. My questions are:
Will Jesus look the same as he did 2006 years ago?

will he still be called Jesus or have a different name?

What nationality will he be?

and is he already here?, as far as i know (and i stress i do have uneducated knowledge of the bible so excuse me if i am wrong) as some say he only discovered he had miracle gifts when he was in his 20's

and for something a little less serious .. what car would jesus drive? :-)

Gen. 1 says God took six days to create the world and everything therein. Isaiah 66:1 says God called the world into being. Science says the world came via a big bang and the earth spins on an axis. What I want to know is what's holding up this axis or what is it fastened to?

scientists say we were made from a multi cellular organism (bacteria) and God made us through dirt. Which alot of us are forgetting that dirt is also bacteria. So my question is maybe the organism is the dirt that God created us with. But in the bible he created earth and us by words and his breath so maybe the wind the dirt (which is the multi organism) and over a long period of time thats how we came about ? Does that make any sense ?

Sure I am not black, but I was raised by a black woman and she always said how they have it. Well I have just gotten done reading this total idiots question, who goes by the name of My best friends and idiot. He said he hated white people as in his own race and he wish he could be black because they get everything. It's not just him it's these wiggers too. Just yesterday I saw this wigger who goes to my college and he said, that all the good stuff comes from black people. They have the best fashion trends and I love the way they talk. How do some of you feel about both of these guys I have just explained?

I have this one friend, and I just found out that she is bisexual. Being a very devout Christian, I am VERY against bisexuality and homosexuality. Its is an abomination. I'm not really sure what I should do about this, if anything. I know that it is wrong, but I also know I should be nice to her. Please give me some advice from a Christian point of view.

Do you know that some celestial events described in the ramayana during the the birth of rama have been accurately calculated by astronomers today to be over 9000 years old? There is a mention of two solar eclipses occuring within a span of 300 hours in that region and these have been plotted by astronomers to that era. And the Mahabharata to some 7000 years old! So is hinduism the oldest or what?

Why do people insist that atheists "believe there is no God" or that atheism is a belief or philosophy? Atheists are waiting for theists to prove their claims, nothing more nor less.

When theists prove their claims, there will be no more atheists. Or, when theists stop making their claims, whichever comes first.

And if any of my fellow atheists would continue to assert "there is no God" if given credible evidence supporting God belief, please so state.

Describe her, dress her. What do you girls find sexually and romantically appealling in other women? What makes you want her? Tell me what you think and what you know.
