If you want to give me a shallow answer that's fine, but the real question is in the details.

Sometimes I imagine what the world would be like if I was in charge. I try to figure out how things would work and how I would set them in motion.

Most likley, I would gather a group of my closest friends and we would have this idea that no matter what, we don't need to exchange monies in between our group. Mainly because we would have this pact that mentioned that everything we do, adds and contributes to the dreams of the others.

It would be like we could look each other in the eye and know we are part of a oneness with only our dreams paramount.

Eventually, I'm sure other's would see our group as evil. Everyone has their own idea of heaven and tries to bring it into reality in some form.

So, that is the idea I had and now try to see it in the now..Where my dream stands right now. Is it similar? Do the oppurtunities exist that make the dream possible? Is it just a fantasy?

The one i like is: I am the light of the world; he who follows me will not walk in darkness but will have the light of life (John 8:12).

I never have, and never will. I was wondering if anyone has been saved in a service of his. If he is not trying to bring salvation to lost souls, then is his ministry really effective?

then doesn't the ideology of the govenment become atheist?

Basically, a government that is intolerant of religion is an atheist government. Is that the goal of people like Michael Newdow and the ACLU to make America "officially atheist" like China is?

For those who don't know, Micheal Newdow, with the help of the ACLU, has sued to take the "under God" out of the pledge of allegiance. And more recently, he has been trying to get the "in God We Trust" motto of America off of our money.

It's about time we turned those dated places of worship into pubs/casinos/super fun happy slides. Come on people, we're living in the 21st century, there is no place for that superstitious mumbo-jumbo.

A democracy is for the people, by the people, of the people!
Even if you bring democracy to muslims they as people believe in killing people not of their faith! What is the purpose of this democracy? They'll vote for governments who support killing of non-muslims! Either they change their religion or genocide is the only way! Don't matter if they are white, black or purple muslims!
Perhaps, sometimes genocide is a necessity (lesser of the two evils)when faced with an enemy as evil as islam!

I've read a lot of postings in here about creation and evolution. Some say that evolution is a theory, and can't be proved. Others say that evolution is a scientific fact. The truth is, there is no proof for evolution, just a lot of unsupported theories. No one has ever found a missing link from one species to another.

Now those people who support evolution attack Christians by saying we have no proof for Creationism. But we do. We have an eyewitness. Our God was there, and He told us how He created everything. He put it in a book called the Bible.

So on one hand we have a theory with no proof, and on the other, we have an eyewitness. WHO DO YOU BELIEVE?

What does it mean to worship?
Is there a right way to worship?
Is there a place that you must go to to worship?

Athiests - I would be interested in your answers to this from your point of view also.

No one's forcing anyone to attend public schools. Just take your kids to religious-based private school or home school them yourselves.

Is currently facing indictment on 58 charges of tax evasion and fraud. He lied about his tax returns is he any more likely to be honest about evolution and science? This is the freak who creationists want to champion their cause. God bless.
