In the journey toward inner peace, balance between one's Yin and Yang, Feng Shui and the like, Red is the last color I would expect to drape sacred sites. Anyone have any insight?

Been looking everywhere but can't find any! I am specifically looking for the names of god(desse)s of music, animals, young children, and neuro disorders (no joke, seriously!). The pantheon doesn't matter; I'm just looking for information. Suggestions, anyone?

I love all people and will never turn anyone away when they are gay but I think that we as christians should voice our opinion more and stop being scared of what people are going to think of us.

I think it is, since of course there is no proof in that statement?
It's like looking at the computer and saying there are no eggs.
I think its unethical and down right ridiculous for any body to claim.
I have'nt found any proof in the world that would tell me thier is'nt a God, so please any athesist that can quote "there is no God," enlighten me.

In 1967, the sociologist Stanley Milgram conducted the first recorded experiments on social connectivity using post cards in the United States. Despite the crudity of the experiment, and the tardiness of the participants, he recorded a median number of 5.5 degrees of separation. Round up and we see the start of "six degrees of separation."

Well, I do. I'm a former Atheist but when I had a car accident, one of the reasons why I converted to Christianity was because Christians were loving and smart.

Here's a quote on the subject from Thich Nhat Hanh:
"In Buddhism, the source of our energy is faith in our daily practice. Faith in an idea is too risky. Ideas can change, even ideas about the Buddha. Tomorrow, we may not believe the same thing and we may fall into the abyss of doubt. We know very well that our daily practice of mindful living has brought us joy and peace, so we have faith and confidence in our practice."

People need to understand that their way with saying things, can really make someone of different thoughts find it offensive. Today, while at the supermarket, I saw a young man [probably about age 11] reading this magazine from the magazine rack. At first, I thought it was a nice simple book, but when he went to put the magazine back, I then realized it was not a book of simple things, but of rappers, and girls in short skirts. Now, I am not the type of person to just bud in on people's personal businuess, but this was unexceptable. He was just a little boy. Why don't you young ones take up the bible, instead of a magazines filled with wrong doings and of the devil? I went to the little boy and told him that this was unexceptable. It really is. I seriously DO NOT understand what the world is becoming of. Grown up's telling and showing kids things of the devil. In my eyes, that is WRONG. And I as a Christian, will NOT stand for rediculousness AND FOOLISHNESS! WHAT IS THIS WORLD BECOMING OF?? DO YOU PEOPLE NOT READ THE BIBLE, PRAY, GO TO CHURCH?THIS IS REDICULOUS! AND I WILL AND CANNOT STAND FOR SUCH LACK OF KNOWLEDGE OF MY SAVIOR. HOW CAN YOU GO TO BED AT NIGHTS WITHOUT PRAYING, TELLING GOD THAT YOU ARE HAPPY TO BE ALIVE, BUT INSTEAD YOU COME WITH THESE GIRLS IN BIKINIS AND TELLING YOUNG CHILDREN SO AND SO?? PLEASE WAKE UP!! THE LORD SEES EVERYTHING!! DONT WAIT UNTIL ITS TOO LATE.
BUT MY MAIN QUESTION IS WHY PEOPLE? WHY??
