As of this posting, only 2 Christians had answered in a way that most atheists would find to be non-inflammatory.

If you consider yourself to be an accepting, loving, open minded, non-judgmental kind of person, explain why you believe so differently from the ones who don't.

Christianity is Christianity. You all read the same book. Why the discrepancies in the way you think?

I'm truly interested.

Does the little town of Silent Hill exist at all? For all we know, it could be in another dimension still in existence. Can anyone help me? (I know it's a movie, but for curiosity sake, I want to know).

they say islam is only true religion and when proved its not only true religion, they just get away by saying that every faih does it. Or, just say we dont judge, only allah judges, then why preach that islam is only true faith.?

Does hatred eventually kill the giver as well the reciever? What stress does the emotion, hatred, put on the cardiovascular system? Is a hateful person more prone to disease and pre-mature death than others?

I just read the story about the secert santa and the story really got to me. I'm only 15 but i do what I can like giving money to homeless people when ever I see them and helping people with the door. I was wondering if anyone does any random kindness to help other people who are less lucky

Why do you not want creationism taught as an alternative "theory" to the theory of evolution, in public schools? Just what about that scares you so much??

I got a new trimline Bible as a gift. It is very slim in width and refuses to lie open flat. How long does it usually take to break it in so that it does lie flat? Thanks!

I've noticed alot of Christian people around in my area that get married super young...like around 19 or 20. Personally I don't want to get married until I'm alot older and certain that I have found the right person. Why do they get married so young? I honestly think it's so they can start having sex lol.

I was dating and engaged to a "good" Christian girl from a missionary family. I caught her cheating on me and i forgave her. Twice. Then she got cought again and she got mad at me for catching her. Then she starts dating the guy she was cheating on me with and now all I hear from our friends is that she is telling everyone what a wonderful christian guy he is and he wants to be a pastor and blah blah blah. He knew she was taken, and it didn't matter. I have the proof, should i out them both. If that is what Christians do then I don't want to be a part of that. If God wants people like that then consider me a former christian. Would it be better for christianity to have the truth come out about them?

According to the bible and christianity, all us humans are sinful and are sorely in need of god's forgiveness and are unworthy of his grace. how can that be? I have committed no grave sin. for the most part, i live by the principle of doing no harm to others. I love my fellow man and believe in maintaining good will towards other human beings.

the bible lists things that are sins (adultry, greed, ......... etc) and i have to say, maybe i have at very few times in my life not completely been a perfect, PERFECT person, but i have done nothing where i would be in such a moral crisis that i would feel that i need the undeserved grace from god. Christians always talk like we are SO bad and that this is a mandate to believe in god's existence. Even if he is real, i have committed no harm or foul against god through free will to do "evil". I am a human being with a central nervous system and brain that contol my desires.

First, if you are reading this post to tell me about Jesus, leave me alone. If you are going to tell me to accept the lord, leave me alone. Do not post. According to your religion I am going to hell and there is no way you can save me...I will not believe in a story written 2,000 years ago that has a reasonable suspicion about it's credibility. Do not answer unless your answer is intelligent and helpful.

Now for the question:
As I understand it, people in The Matrix could do anything they want. For example, I am in The Matrix right now. It would be possible for me to fly if I believed I could fly. But I cannot believe it without doing it first, so it never happens. If I believed in it, it would be possible, correct? So let's go back a few years...I am 6 years old. I am standing on top of my dresser with a sheet thinking I am superman. I believe that I can fly, so I dive off of my dresser into the air expecting and truly believing that I will zoom off into the air. But instead...

If we all had the same mindset, same thoughts, how would we truly come up with new solutions.

How would the world be better if everyone thought exactly the same way?
