Society & Culture - 24 November 2006

The reason I ask is simple. Beliefs based on faith (especially reilgions) are inherently self binding. With one exception, I see no problem with the majority of the teachings of all religions. They attempt to have humanity better themselves and their situation by altering the believer's behavior. This aids in maintaining societial standards keeping certain natural animalistic human behaviors under control. The exception is that almost all religions teach solidarity vs. unity and are therby flawed by piting those that believe against those that don't. Some people absolutely need to believe in something (or some diety) to give their life meaning and purpose. Without that they wouldn't be able to cope their mediocre and simple life. The segregation of religions amounts to the belief that all opposing views are absolutely incorrect which leads people away from the teachings of their respective religions. People then become enslaved to the absolution of their religion. Very sad.

they are also wear a gladiator costume with shield in hand when reading the responses.

This is 1 response to my last question. Obviously, this answer has nothing to do with my question. I'm just curious as to why people just don't answer the question. I'm not angry just curious. does every question warrant such emotional,unrelated responses. I don't usually defend myself when answering questions, because there's nothing to defend for me.


Is this person trippin or what:

If there is no God, then everything and anything is permissible (who would say that anything is wrong? Subjective law? My law is better than your law).
Some people have plenty of will...and plenty of won't, like in bowing the knee to God!

In the WWII, there were 50 million casualties. Any kind of people were taken to concentration camps. So why is it called the Holocaust, only 6 million of them were jews.

It is a time for soul-searching and fervent prayers. The Rupture is soon; what it is I don't know, but I've been told it's soon.

So hypothetically, what if an acquaintance of mine gets a really bad haircut and asks me what I think of it? If I choose to be honest, I'll hurt their feelings. But if I choose to make them feel better about it...then HYPOTHETICALLY, I'm breaking one of the Ten Commandments, right? ;-)

I'm new here, but I've seen a lot of Islamic Propaganda here in badly worded English with little or no respect for the sentiment of others.

Strangely, when I replied two of their so-called "Questions", I got ridiculous "Violations Notices"!?

The few Muslims I'd met, in my life, were people I found to be bigoted, lacking in manners and common sense. Naturally, I don't want to meet anymore.

We'd hired a Pakistani Muslim immigrant here whom I had to sack because the Team complained about his collaring them and running down Christianity and America. Considering the fact he was trying to come in here, one would have thought he'd have more common sense.

Anyway, is this a regular thing here?

Does anyone know where I can find kid friendly stuff that isn't breakable? I have quite a bit of decor; however, A LOT of breakables so I am not putting them out this year due to having a 16 month old. Can anyone recommend a website or a store that has things that are OK if my daughter gets into them. I don't want anything plush for my own decor. Thanks!
