do you think its lazy or rude to expect people to read and respond and you don't reply or resolve? When someone says it left to the voters doesn't that seem like a cop out for others doing your work. It also makes one wonder if you are even interested in what they say or only what you have to say

Let's have a look at some of the christian areas in the world and see why they are christian.

Europe

Christianity becomes entrenched as part of European culture as a result of Constantine's wishes.

Africa

European christians invade Africa, kill hundreds of thousands, enslave others, steal land, destroy local traditions and beliefs and replace them with christianity.

North America / Australia

European christians invade, steal land from the native population, nearly wipe out the native population and then come in such droves as to come to completely dominate the area after several generation.

Central America / South America / Phillipines

European christians invade, kill hundreds of thousands, enslave others, steal land, destroy local traditions and beliefs and replace them with christianity.

The spread of christianity worldwide doesn't quite seem as glorious now does it ?

Islam doesn't fare much better.

What the reason for kids-teenagers to "toilet-tissue" someones house and front landscaping? Is it suppose to mean something or just a prank-vandalizism. Is it revenge motivated ? Or is it to target nice homes out of envy?

Why claim that Einstein was deeply religious when this is simply false. is your argument so weak that you must resort to lies.

Why have these people ignored what Einstein himself had to say :

A man's ethical behavior should be based effectually on sympathy, education, and social ties and needs; no religious basis is necessary. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death. [Albert Einstein, Religion and Science, New York Times Magazine, 9 November 1930]

It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated. I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it. [Albert Einstein, 1954, from Albert Einstein: The Human Side]

Activity is the key note of the universe and of every living being. Does it make sense to perform activity with the obejct of gaining desired outcomes or does it make sense to perform activity for the sake of work itself, irrespective of results?

They came with a Bible and their religion- stole our land, crushed our spirit... and now tell us we should be thankful to the 'Lord' for being saved.

So many christians claim that scientists are "en masse" rejecting evolution as false and are now accepting the biblical account of things.

The problem is that they never actually name any of these scientists.

I would be grateful if somebody would provide me with a detailed list of these pro - creationism scientists along with their qualifications, papers etc.

And NO, tax dodger Kent Hovind does not count ! Only real scientists please .

I was born with the gift to communicate with deceased Australopithecuses, one of the species of early man in our evolutionary tree. I have so far channelled 3 of them and they all are saying the same thing: Unga Bunga Logta Joba. This means: 'Me want big wooly mammoth burger'. I don't know how to respond; any help?

I am a lesbian and I am having some serious issues with the religious aspect of it. I do believe in God, and I don't know what to do. So here are my questions:

I know I was born this way. I would not choose this lifestyle purposely because it is so hard. So why would God create us in his image like this if he hated it? Could the Bible's translations have been mixed up? Why are some people gay and not others?

I also wanted to know the exact passages where the Bible condemns Homosexuality.

Thanks, guys.
