It took the believers no effort to believe. They put foward no effort and walk the earth like they own it and tell everyone that stuggles with the illogical ways of christanity that they will burn for eternity.
Christians remind of people born into rich families. They did nothing to earn but they think they know everyone about it.
anyone feel the same

Since we can't call the stupid ""plain stupid" anymore, we use "mentally challenged". So what would the politically correct term for laziness be?

Sometimes people ask me what my religion is, and I tell them, I'm an Atheist. What do they do? Look at me like im scum. I feel as if they want to spit on me. I'm not a very stereotypical person, but what I see is Christians and Catholics looking down upon me. Now, it's not like I walk around telling people, "Hey, there is no God, there is no God!", but people ask, and then they scoff. Pretty much what happens is they look at me like, "What makes you so special?", so I look at them like, "What room do you have to judge?". People see me around, they turn their heads, but why? Because I don't believe in Vishnu? Or Zeus? Or Jesus? I would rather say that I when I die I will be there, in a casket, or an urn, just to decay, rather than worship a carpenter. Who is to say that Jesus wasn't exaggerated? Religions in general, I have seen, and what I see is just to point out a reason for living, but would you rather live your life and do what you want, or be constricted by what we call society?

This is sort of a poll. What are your beliefs regarding the creation-evolution controversy? If you're a creationist, are you a Young-Earth Creationist, or Old Earth, or another type of creationist? If you believe in evolution, is it theistic evolution, atheistic/agnostic evolution, or another type of evolution? Why do you believe what you believe? I really appreciate your input!

im trying to write a one act about christmas, and the conflict that i want to have in the text is that of religion. i would like someone to be something other than christian or catholic. so can someone who is jewish, morman (sp), or anything else kind of help me out by giving me an overview of their beliefs (sp) (wow i fell stupid when it comes to spelling) specifically when it comes to jesus, and him being our savior?
(btw: the comment above about things "other than christian," i know that that is politically incorrect, but most people know what im trying to say... so just... please answer the question, and dont lecture me about how i worded it wrong.
thanks.

Thou shalt not have any Gods before me.
Thou shalt not kill.
How is it that human beings should kill and then idolize the prophet that they killed?
I honestly don't understand the Christian logic.
