In the bible God and Satan battle, there is a great war in heaven and Satan is cast out...so it seems that war has originated from God, we "being" in his image...is this why there is so many wars.If this is how God settles his debates are we not just following are Fathers example? The amount that is suffered doesnt matter...we have a point to prove.

I was just wondering which religion has the most followers. Its not for any type of assignment, but for personal knowledge. Serious answers please, and I'm not asking for a religion bashing session, so please be kind to people who actually believe in something.

I work for a non-profit that is doing great things with on-line volunteering. Our site www.mediavolunteer.org is not doing what i would like. I was hoping some of you could visit www.mediavolunteer.org, maybe poke around in there, and let me know how to make it better. Thanks!

I was wondering if anyone else ever heard of this?

Not too long ago, a woman in my church pulled me aside and said I was kneeling wrong. When I go down, I kneel with my left knee on the floor and my right knee up to push myself up. She said that it should be my right knee on the ground and my left knee up. According to her, the way I was doing it was a proclamation to Satan.

I asked my mom, and she thinks it's some mideval thinking from like the 60's when people thought that left-handed people were evil. Things like, the Angel is on the right shoulder, the Devil on the left.

I was wondering if anyone else ever heard of this. I think that lady is full of it. I kneel that way because it's easier on my soon-to-be arthritic knees.

I know some hang on to it for self preservation by joining golf clubs, tennis clubs etc but are we becoming classless generally?
Do all countries have different social classes i.e. France, Spain, Germany etc. is having social classes a limiting factor to progress? Is England worse than other countries?

My roomate continuouly borrows clothes/jewlery/shoes etc and uses my makeup/bathroom products/foods without asking or saying anything and it drives me crazy. She never asks and it's not just a little here and there, it's enough that I notice and have to buy products more often because of it. I feel like kicking her out of the apt sometimes, but I know that's a bit extreme...

Isn't it the saddest of ironies that so many people who will throw red paint on someone's fur coat to protest the "innocent killing" of ANIMALS will also march on behalf of a woman's right to kill her own CHILD?

When and why did our societly start placing more value on the lives of animals over the lives of humans?

This is an honest question. Please do not get rude, immature, or just put biblical verses on here. I several bibles and I can read them myself. If you cannot contain yourself--just don't answer the question.

Since God gave us free will, who are we as Christians to tell another person (regardless of their religion) what they can and can not do? Basically why should we be able to take that God given right away from a person? Don't you think on the day they are judged they will still be judged the same regardless if we make things legal or illegal?

This is pertaining to legalizing gay marriage, abortion, and many other things I've noticed we force others NOT to do.

I just think the whole idea of a label is silly but you jesus people seem to feel the need to attach a label to "non-believers". So what's my label?

You are traveling through a remote part of new guinea and find that the natives are worshiping a discarded sony playstation. Do you try to convince them that the videogame is not divine?

I saw it for a mortgage ad and and now it's on facial cream ad. This dancing figurines of people jutting their navels all over the place with their hands in the air. You know, those dark sillohette people. What's the deal with the marketing these days? Like now I really want to buy - since I saw the dancing freaks on the advertisement - right. One of them was a disgusting couple and a fat lady swinging it all over the ad. I thought it was quite gross and turned me off from clicking the ad. What's really funny is that somebdy probably makes a decent living out of thinking up pathetic marketing ideas like this.

If I was in the market for new freak dance moves - maybe it would be relevant to the advertisement?
