Society & Culture - 25 October 2006

I dont understand why these people visit these forums to prove a point(nobody ever agrees) Point out the "wrong" things we gay people are doing; you name it: Anal sex, marriage, adoption, being sexual, lesbians, the list goes on. Are these people still in the closet? So why explore this forum, to see whats going on? Why not post on a "Straight" forum of opinions and relationships. I thought this forum was Gay chit-chat and boyfriend/girlfriend problems? Why do I like to put my pudding pop, into someones pudding? Why are gay people genetically prepositioned to listen to Madonna?(disregard the last question. HA!)

As a white, I lived in Arkansas in a black community. I went to church with blacks and worked with them. I went to their homes on a few occassions and invited many of them to mine. They would not associate with me except in church. I truly asked to be a part of their every-day life but this was refused. I admittedly was raised in the deep south but my family taught me against prejudice.I was convinced that I did not know what bigotry was and yet I was myself the object of bigotry. I am old now and still have no answer to my question. Why can't we resolve the question of racismn in America? Is there anyone out there of the black race who wants too. Because this old woman would like an answer before I pass on.

then why are they dominating this board? Not saying that you can't be hear, but if really don't believe in God, why do you feel the need to come here and make fun of those who do? I think that there is some part of you that does believe in God, but for some reason, you feel the need to pull away from him and bash those who do believe.

so, why do people use the "n" word and all the words of similar meaning, when it has such a bad history & wrap. i especially don't understand why black people think they can use it when they are the ones who discouraged the use of the word anyhow. isn't that racist in itself? shouldn't word usage be equal among races along with everything else in the ideal world, so shouldn't we strive towards that?

1) The only One True God (tm) is the Flying Spaghetti Monster
2) Therefore, all other religions are false and lead to the worshipping of Antipasta, the evil devil nemesis of the FSM.
3) Therefore, all christians, muslims, jews, hindi, buddhists, etc are devil worshippers and evil.
4) The only thing worse than these devil worshippers are the atheists. How DARE they reject His Noodliness?!?!?
5) And the only thing worse than atheists are agnostics. They don't even have the noodly backbone to take a position.


Remember: If you're not a Pastafarian, then you're evil.

Why? Because the FSM says so. That's why.
He said it.
I believe it.
That settles it.

Goodnight.

Seems to be odd that the greateast opponents to Mormonism are other Christians who profess a belief in Jesus Christ and the Bible. However in their answers and responses seem to answer with such hate that it goes against any christian belief? Same seems to apply to a handful of other religions as well.

i mean, i kinda already did ask a mormon if the ex mormon told me about it. the first video before this explains that he was in the church for many years and was a high ranked member of the church so i think he is a credable source, so mormons, is any of this correct?

“God” is not referred to in the Constitution or the Bill of Rights - neither are church, religion, worship - nor is *Christianity*.

US money did not reference God until the Civil War.

The Pledge of Allegiance did not include “under God” until the Cold War.

The US was not founded on Christianity. It was founded on the principles of checks and balances btwn the executive, legislative, and judicial branches; representative democracy; freedom of religion; and, separation of church and state. The structure is based on a mix of ancient Roman and Greek governance – not religion.

Why do so many Christians insist that the founding of the US was based on Christianity?

Anyone out there think that Rush Limbaugh should be banned from the radio? I know he's allowed to express his opinions, but he is so biased against blacks, gays and handicapped people. And yet, he is a bloated, drug addicted, alcoholic, asshole so he has no room to critize anyone until he cleans up his act. Any responses?

I pity the fool who takes his spirituality and takes it for granted. Most people tend to forget that it is like a package. Spirituality is what is on the inside. Religion is the box in which said spirituality is housed. However, most people tend to be more interested with the wrapping of the package than what's inside.

Meditation is a temporary escape from the self. Many people do the same thing with a few beers, or experimenting with drugs. Do you see a difference?

Are they not the same people that live in Jordan? When Palestine was partitioned, why did some become Jordanian citizens, while others live in refugee camps in the West Bank and Gaza? Is it true most of the current "palestinian" population consists of people from places other than Palestine?

Can you either share a really one time where it was either really touching/rewarding OR one time where it was just super fun? PLEASE be respectful to those who don't go to church and use language and terms that can be understood by regular folk. Thanks.
