I was already excited about the gifts I was planning to get them (nice stuff) when they emailed me with these requests...I'm torn between saying, "it's my money, I'll buy what I like to buy" and "Well if it's a gift, they should get what they want regardless of how much I dread having to buy this type of gift." Which would you do? Assuming they are both in the same price range....

I mean even some of the people asking questions give you a smart *** comeback after they ask you for your opinion. You give your opinion and they snap back with an attitude. Well don't ask me for my freaking opinion if you really don't want it. I even agreed with someone earlier and got a smart *** reply! What the hell is wrong with people these days? Geez!

Why do people oppose it so much? It is a common misconception that kids raised with a particular religion will turn out just like their parents. I attended a Christian school, and the kids that were the LEAST tolerant of the religion, were the kids that were raised with it all their lives. They merely went through the motions. My best friend, while VERY fanatical in her teen years, as an adult as turned out to be very open minded now that she has grown up. So why should we care, if people choose to raise kids in a religion??

In my expierence, it usually works against the parents, not for them.

read this article about it. It covers what Leviticus said and DIDN'T say about gays. Levitius also said that it's ok to kill someone for working on saturday or for handling a pig skin (any religious people out there like football ??)

It also covers what JESUS said about gays WHICH IS NOTHING!
He never said a thing about it.

This guy talks about the bible and corrects a lot of myths about what is and isn't written.

Where is the best place to learn Greek? College course? Online course? Book? Audio tape?

Anybody who give a Christian answer gets a ton of thumbs down, while any answer that bashes Christians gets a plethura of thumbs up. Why are they so mean and narrowminded? I thought they were supposed to be enlightened and open to new ideas?

Just because you can stand on a soap box and spout your beliefs does not make you any more moral than anyone else. It is your actions that define you, not your belief in a religion or in God.

But if you wear something you think they might like why do they still make fun of you? Everytime I wear something, whether it's in my hair or clothes, I'm always getting joked about, when I'm being myself.

Do they understand that all World Leaders make war,

That what freaks out Westerners is that even the regular individuals of Islam kill for their religion.
The notion of a struggle against an occupier(Israel and Palestine) can be noble. But when you attach the belief that you get 72 virgins in heaven for blowing yourself up, it loses its nobility.

I have also never seen a Christian beheading a muslim and start cheering about it. Thats INSANE, like horror movie insane.

What gives?

Are they more logical? Were they introduced to religion in a negative light? Were they taught to disbelieve?

These questions do not only pertain to Atheism. Does religion come from the individual? the home? just by chance?
