Society & Culture - 4 October 2006

do you think it's normal to not want to be born ever again. i'm not talking about the fear of the judgement day or the whole karma thing. i just don't want to be born again 'cause i've just about had it with everything that's going on in the world & no matter how happy i'd be, i never ignore the pain and struggle of other people and it makes me depressed 'cause sometimes there's nothing you can do.

thanks

I was born and raised from a Christian mother. I've always wondered why Christians believe in the bible so deeply when Jews wrote it. Right? To this day, Jews believe another completely different religion than Christians. Tell me why, would you believe in a book that the people who wrote it don't even believe??? I'm not against God, just confused about the Christian religion.

Just because you are not Christian, does not mean you are Atheist. How about you guys get that through your thick heads and little brains? If you had brains, you would use them and quit letting a fictional book from ancient ages that is not even translated correctly rule your life.

That which you have been given is but a fleeting comfort of this life. Better and more enduring is that which Allah has for those who believe and put their trust in Him; who avoid gross sins and indecencies and, when angered, are willing to forgive; who obey their Lord, attend to their prayers, and conduct their affairs by mutual consent; who bestow in alms a part of that which We have given them and, when oppressed, seek to redress their wrongs. [Al-Qur'an, Sura: 42 (Ash-Shura), Ayat: 36-39]

I think that they are completely separate. Knowing implies certainty. I can believe something for which I have little evidence but not know it to be true. Belief depends on actions by a human being. It does no use to "believe" something unless you can act or must act in such a way as to follow the consequences of a belief. For that reason, I could believe something; but not know it to be true. I am an agnostic atheist. I don't believe God exists -- but -- I don't know that he is non-existent for sure.

One could argue that belief is involuntary. If one reads many books and "doesn't believe" a certain proposition, his belief may be irrespective of his personal choice. For instance, if I read several books explaining gravity and then I "grasp the concept" by seeing a falling object; I may not have the ability to "choose not to believe" in gravity. Similarly, one could argue that he is unable to "choose to believe" in Jesus or God because it is outside of his control. Perhaps he's read all he can read and prayed all he can pray -- and he can't choose to believe.

So I'm just curious as to why people come on here and waste eveyone's time by asking such silly questions? For instance "are all you people on here overweight?" What does it matter? Another one "Why do diapers stink?" Come on. . . this is a site to help others with your knowledge so why waste yours and everyone else's time?

No offense meant to anyone, I'm just curious as to why people ask such silly questions.

I have a theory that I wrote about in my blog tonight, and want to see if others agree.

Despite the myth, I don't think most lesbians actually hate or even dislike men. They just dislike sex with men. No, for *real* man-hating, you have to turn to straight women, and bi women with recent male experience. Hell, just look at greeting cards and commercials designed to reach straight women!

What are your experiences with this?
