Its seems today Christmas season in U.S. is too materialistic to the point most people will be glad it is over. Alot of people get burned out and disgusted with the long lines in the stores. Many will see no joy from this. Why not try to go back to the older traditions? Why not spend more time with family or friends? Try Christmas caroling, are making candys or foods for friends or family. Making things or maybe even giving ones time is more valuable than a store bought gift. Then maybe after Christmas day you can look back and be more refreshed and not burned out and stressed. Teach your children a different traditon than that of alot of toys that typically are not played with 5 days after Christmas.

I can understand why people think everything in existance needs to be created, therefore needs to have a creator. But why do people think that this 'creator' is god. (i.e. is an all powerful, all knowing superior being).

Many philosophers over the years have theorised there are multiple creators. They are not all powerful but instead are like craftsmen. They created this world as well as other worlds like ours but better (think of them as better newer versions of the same idea).

So why do you think the creator(s) is god?

other such stores is just so the majority of people will feel more comfortable shopping in that store. So therefor it will make that store alot more cash around Christmas time?

What do you think the CEO's of these large department stores think more about around Christmas time? Is there more news on how the sales of a specific large corp went down this year? Or more news on how they are taking public donations for charities around Christmas?

December 6th would have been my fiance's son's birthday. He passed away in 1999 from cancer. I was thinking of putting something on his tombstone. Him, his ex-wife, and their son are meeting at the cemetary to put flowers on the grave.

I want to acknowledge this day somehow..any ideas? Would it be tacky of me to place something at his gravesite? Should I maybe just give my man a card? Your thoughts - thanks in advance.

Is he mad?? Who created the universe and all in it? Who has spoken and converted many non-believers (Atheists) to Pastifarianism?? Who has promised beer volcanoes, endless pasta and parmasan, carbs galore, a stripper factory, to all who believe!!

It's your loss if you do not believe, Yes Man!

If I want to give $50 but only have $100 bill, wouldn't it be better to make change in the plate than to stiff God?

Ok,,I'd like to ask this question in a different catagory. Should we allow our children think it's ok to be gay, or go by what the bible says about homosexuality. And it being wrong. What would you do if your child was gay?

There are hearings in the Pakistan Guardian Court,the High Court and the Supreme Court over whom she should be brought up with.
Last week a Judge ruled that she should be returned to her Mother as her Father was not a permanent resident in Pakistan, he ruled that Misbah was brought into Pakistan illegally. We can all see in the media coverage of how upset she is at being brought back to Britain, and states she will run away if she is returned, I feel a teeny bit sorry for her Mother but you should watch who you jump into bed with,.stick to your own culture and religion unless of course you are prepared to live as a muslim.
Do you think her father will get a big fat dowry for her now that she is famous although a bit old at twelve for marriage in Pakistan
