One guy said he was gay and was going to come out dressed in drag at his son's bar mitzvah. And people took him seriously! What the heck does it take to get people to do a little bit of parsing?

I am not Wiccan myself, although I became interested in what it was all about several years ago and did quite a lot of research. I also have several friends who are Wiccan. Why do people jump to the conclusion that it is evil? It is one of the oldest religions and it is a peaceful one. Wiccans have never persecuted anyone, and in turn do not hate Christians because they have different beliefs, so why all the hate? Why all of the "You're stupid because magick doesn't exist." No Wiccan would say something like that to a Christian. I have observed a few Wiccan ceremonies, it's not a cult, it's not Satanic. It's peaceful.

I mean, God created us as humans and he created the earth with everything needed to sustain human life. He created myriads and myriads of spirit creatures and the heavens for them. Why is it that so many seem not to appreciate the life God gave us and so badly want to escape to a heaven that we cannot really even imagine, because it is not for most of us to ever gain. Adam and Eve had a very good life and relationship with God before they ruined it and rebelled, and they lived as humans on this earth. We always want something that we can't have. Life in heaven is just not for humans...its for spirit creatures and the few thousand who have been bought from the earth for a specific purpose...to rule with Jesus for a thousand years.

The rest of us have life-everlasting as a hope, but that will be on earth...we are humans, we are living souls. Even the dead who will be resurrected will be resurrected to human life (except again, the 144,000 who will rule along with Jesus from heaven.

There is a packaged "Pumpkin Pie Spice" on the shelf that is used instead of several different spices. ie: ginger, cinnamon etc.
I am unable to buy the single package where I live and would like to know what the individual ingredients are.

One day a man was a soldier. He served proudly for many years. He earned the rank of major and was highly decorated. He led a good clean life. No drugs, social drinking, never drove drunk. He went to church and prayed every Sunday. He did charity work, saved his money, he paid his bills. He stayed physically fit and mentally stable. He was an outstanding person over all.

Two weeks later he was being discharged from the military. Received a dishonorable discharge, couldn’t pay his bills because he had no job. Tossed out of the church he attended for many years, shunned by the parishioners. Was accused of being a pervert, of sick and disgusting acts from his friends.

What did this man do that was so wrong? He loved another man! True story form a few short years ago. However, it happened again today to yet another service man. For the same stupid reason. Knowing all this, will you still vote for the same people who are in office today. Will you stop voting for republican?

I the last few months, Mark Foley was "outed" for his homosexual "hot chats" with the pages and now this evangelical minister out in Colorado apparently by a male prostitute.

Does a homosexual's political positions or religion determine whether it is appropriate to disclose another's sexual orientation, and why/why not?

I often get put in the position of where someone says "I love you" to me, and i dont know how to respond. These are nice people who are friends of mine, but i don't feel we are at the level of "I lvoe you". I feel very akward and have given in and said i love you, too in the past, and i have also just said thank you, or something neutral. it seems like they throw out i love yous like hellos. what do i do?

I'm a Naruto fan and I keep hearing them say "Build up chakra in your [body part]" And I wonder what it's suposed to feel like when you actually do it. I'm a girl using my brother's account, I believe in all this paranormal/yoga/magic stuff...help.

Last night, I was on my way to home and I saw $5 bill on the street. It was late and nobody was there, but somehow I just passed by and didn't take it. I don't know why. Maybe I was scared, or feel guilty...? What would you do if you saw money on the street?

This morning i recieved an invitation to go to a halloween party for my church. Its next month and i want to make a prinncess outfit. I'm 14 and 298lb and extremly overweight. My mom worked all night to make this outfit perfect to show my gramps thats in town for a bingo tournament. I put in on and looked in the mirror. I told my self i was beautiful and walked downstairs. When i got downstairs and showed him. Before he could say anything i turned aroud and a button hit him in the eye. My dress busted off. I left degraded and exposed, looking down at my numerous rolls (which by the way, I enjoy fiddling with in dark rooms all by myself.) while my gramps was left unconsious. What should i do?

Is it because it's the biggest obstacle to human progress since the beginning of recorded time?

Maybe because religicoes always use circular logic to support their claims?

Maybe because I've been stereotyped, assaulted and/or pitied by holier than thou religicoes?

Is it the "I'm right, you're wrong" attitude that I've come to expect from conservative religious groups?

Or maybe it's the mysogenistic viewpoint of many religions?

Sometimes, I just don't know. Why does religion make YOU so mad?
