After all, poor White trailer trash can't claim racism so why should uneducated ghetto thug trash be allowed that leeway?

Educated and successful White people look at trailer trash meth junkies and call them what they are.

Why do educated Blacks have trouble doing the same?

Muchas Gracias~~

Let's assume that they were spiritual beings who worshipped humans as sacred and you knew about this practice.

5. If you were omnipotent but invisible, and you wanted to make sure that people knew you were real and wanted them to believe in you, what would you do to make this happen?

A. I would write my name on the face of the moon so all could see and have no doubt of my existence

B. I would do things that could not be explained in any other way. Like stopping terrible things from happening, like the 9/11 event, or feeding all the hungry children on earth

C. I would protect and reward those who believed in me and ignore the plight of those who do not.

D. I would do nothing at all and stay as invisible and undetectable as possible, letting everyone fend for themselves, those who believe in me and those who don’t, showing no favoritism

My question is this, If you could absolutely guarantee peace on earth for the rest of time between all religions/races/colours/creeds but the price for this was the death of 5 million people (not all from the same religion or country), would you do it?

I am looking at volunteering in Louisiana, and possibly doing so through this organization, however I am not sure if it sits right with me. They had me fill out an application and everything but I was accepted to volunteer without ever having to talk to anyone. It just seems a little odd.

..appear to take GREAT pleasure in the fact that Atheists will burn in hell for eternity...

I'm an Atheist, and obviously I dont think Im going to burn in hell.

My point is, it's not a very "Christian" attitude is it.

"you all gonna buuuuurnn, nah nah na nar nar, cus we worship nar nar and youoooo dont ner ner, burn in helll ner ner ner ner "

I see this attitude endlessly on here, would "God" think you "good Christians" for taking pleasure in the fact that someone is going to suffer intolerable pain for eternity? Simply because he didnt do a very good of convincing most of the world that Christ was his son....

Your thoughts?

For instance, the pagan story -- Epic of Gilgamesh -- historically preceded the book of Genesis by hundreds if not thousands of years. It was being forced upon the captive Jews in Babylon (the diaspora) and the book of Genesis was written in a somewhat parallel matter to turn their pagan story of multiple gods into a one god story -- Yahweh. Therefore, if we read the pagan story, how can we be so silly as to believe that Genesis was to be interpreted literally and not figuratively?

If you believe in a omnipotent, omniscient deity what makes you think you are in any position to overrule his/her teachings?

What gives you the right to pick and chose?

(I am aware that almost nobody follows all of the teachings. But being a non-religious person I don't see where people can follow some of the teachings and not be contradicting themselves). "God is almighty and knows everything, well except this one thing, he was really off his rocker when he said this."

Please don't give me any "it's open to interpretation" or "religion is subjective" garbage. I find it rather convenient how a lot of catholics/christians/etc in one case will wholeheartedly defend a cause saying that "this isn't right, it's not how God intended" yet in another case say that it's their interpretation of the holy text.
