So long Y!A regulars. I've decided to join the droves of those leaving this asylum to be run by the inmates.

If someone can prove god exists, I'll stay.

isn't it rather an extreme method of discouragement? and since it's also not true, is it ethical? (or is it one of the 'good' lies, like the one about santa?) um, sorry if i ruined someone's evening with the news about santa. i'll write you a letter to the north pole to make it up!! :)

I've found these in a particular anti-Islam sites. This quoted phrase has been taken directly from the Quran.

If he denieth (Allah's guidance) ... We will seize him by the forelock. We will call the guards of hell.--

You see guys -- All 3 sentence is from 3 different phrases but these guys just put together all 3 and make a sentence to decieve others. Any guy could in turn use that and add in another lies whatsoever. Due to this other may not know what is the actual message is about.

That is exactly how the Bible have been tempered and decieved by millions of Christians. 80% of the bible has been tempered this way.

So can you proof to me i'm wrong?

Isn't God infallible? Doesn't he know all from the begining to the end? If so, how could he make such a mistake that has resulted in him having to murder millions of his chldren?
This is as per the Old Testiment.

Why does it worry people so much that humans probably have no purpose whatsoever? Why should we have anymore purpose than a blade of grass?

The Danish newspaper publications of Muhummed cartoons and the Islamic backlash that followed makes me wonder how the western world feels about our current freedoms to poke fun at religious icons or faith in general. Currently, in most of the west, we can make light of God, Jesus, Mohammed, Krishna, Bhudda and so forth. So, do you believe that freedom of speech should be limitless (aka, can we be free to offend) or do you think that mocking other's beliefs should be off limits and thusly illegal?

How is this possiable? Science answers so many questions....You can see science. In 5,000 years the sun will essentially blow up...We will be all dead. How do Christians explain that?Is God going to help us find away to not meet this doom? ;) I'm just a curious Christian who has taken way to many psychology/science classes. ;)

I need a quick homemade adult costume that is work-place ok. I was thinking jailbird, but I only have the black/white stripe shirt, and don't know what else to use to tie it all together. Any other ideas? I need something fun, but easy to put together.

I am led to believe that priests will only give you absolution for,say murder, if you give yourself up?

When Von Stauffenberg went to confession, prior to the July plot, would you have absolved him of the deed which he was yet to carry out?

If he can't, then mean He isn't all-powerful. If he can, then there's something he can't do, which is pick up that rock - so again, he isn't all-powerful.

Give it your best shot, and let the justifications begin.

I read that the trend of men wearing their pants sagging low started in prisons. It was a code to let other prisoners know you were gay and available anytime. True or not? Please let me know if you ever heard this.

I have some of them right here. A collection from the posts I made in here:
Question: "Can you show me your God?"
Christian answers:
1. You can't see the air can you? (air is provable and testable, you can even measure and weigh air).
2. You can't see your brain can you? ( In an x-ray you can)
3. Prove to me he doesn't exist (oxymoron statement, you cannot prove fairies don't exist, they don't exist due to NO PROOF)
4. You are going to hell!!!! (One of my personal favorites...lol)
Can you think of anymore you might have heard or seen?

I don't know...it's a pretty broad question.
First of all, this question is supposed to be related to the Declaration of Independence, especially how we got our natural rights, including freedom of religion. But, when I think about it today, I don't know how to answer this question.
I mean, for Muslims today, you're allowed to have a mosque built, girls wearing hijab, holidays, halal restaurants, etc. But, with all the things going on right now, especially the misrepresentation of Islam, would there be freedom of religion for us?
And does freedom of religion also mean the respect for a religion? Are we getting respect from other people about Muslims and Islam?

i just joined my school's gym and they have a pool. i am going to go tonight with a guy friend who is very accepting and a nice person. i have an attitude that when i take off my towel and reveal my bathing suited body, that i am totally fine with the way i look. this is despite the fact that i am about 20-25 pounds over weight (i am 5'3" and 160 lbs). am i wrong to be so proud of my body, or should i worry about it/only take off my towel when i am two inches away from the water, ready to get in lol)

i don't know if ppl are like "whoa she shouldn't flaunt it cuz it's not that great" or if they don't even care. please share your thoughts

I see all this potential, and I see us squandering it. God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy sh*t we don't need. We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off.
