Do the adults wear top hats and the kids wear yarmulkes? Or does it have to do with wealth and social status?

I must say that I personally fear more what I have done wrong and failed to do. Much as a child fears dissapointing their Father.

As I was driving I caught something on the radio saying that the Founding Fathers of the U.S. refused to let Muslim set up mosque in the U.S. as the principles of their religion went against freedom of religion for all others as the princilpal of their religion is for everyone to become Muslims.
Has anyone else heard this or know it to be true and if so how was the Founding Fathers involved?

...do you mean all religions---or just the Christian ones? Be honest.

And I'm not asking this to be confrontational, I swear. I just want to get people's insight. So, do you really feel that Christianity, Buddhism, Wicca, Catholicism, etc. are all brainwashing?

Most people who follow religion closely will say "god is real, he saved me" or some **** like that. But Muslims say they "feel" Alah, and Christians say they "feel" their God. So which one's real? I personally am an agnostic. Just wanted to read your thoughts on this.

I can't believe how much theivery and fraud exists behind the scenes at thrift stores. Such activities: Employees scamming donations, managers employing illegal immigrants, employees stealing to sell on eBay, etc., I'm surprised that more isn't done by the authorities. My lady worked at one of these and was threatened with dismissal and humiliation when she complained to the manager about her co-workers dishonesty. Two days later two of her tires were slashed. She had to resign as her parents feared for her safety. Sadly she took this job as she had a social conscience and wanted to help people while gaining experience.

Why are things so bad at these stores. Do you have any examples of thrift corruption? ...(and shame on you if you are involved in a thrift scam...it's like stealing aid for the poor!)

I dont believe in god but I would like to. I cant help but take a step back and look at christianity from an open minded point of view. Since the beginning of man kind, almost every single group of human from anytime periods created their own gods. It is easy to see why humans would want a god: to make their lives seem important and to not fear death. I think it is instinctual to want a god. Even animals like to have a leader or another to look up to. Out of all the people and civilizations that existed before why should people trust christianity out off all others. Christianity has spead though war and politics and it seem to me that everyone that follows this religon do so because they were simply born into it. And I noticed Christians refuse to explore other religon which makes them even harder to trust. What advise would you have to people that have these concerns

I'm a Christian, and I enjoy answering questions and reading others answers on this site. One thing that bothers me about a lot of the Christians' answers is that they often don't look to the root of the problem/question. Often the Christians who answer give what I call "church" answers. As a non-believer, are you more willing to accept an answer from a Christian if it uses common sense first then addresses the Christian aspect of the answer? Please no comments like, "Christians and common sense don't exist" or something along that line.

This is a two parter...pls answer only if you believe in both
1) Do you believe that god created the earth in 6 days (7th day for rest)?
2) Do you believe that dinosaurs once roamed the earth?

How is this possible if dinosaurs supposedly roamed the earth millions of years before man came along, yet man was created on the 6th day?

(This is a question I have asked to many different religions since I first thought of it as a kid, I have my own theory but am curious as to other ppls.)

I have been watching Kenneth Copeland in the mornings and enjoy what he has to say, but everytime I do a search on him bad stuff comes up sugesting he is a false profit.
I'm just trying to make some sense out of life. Televangelism seems to promise everything including a kitchen sink.
