I'm tired of women becoming more and more worthless in this society. Few hundred years ago they new their place, cook, clean, monogomy, talk only when asked, and rights that were fair with their abilities. Today women are becoming more like men except they AREN'T. If you like sex and you're a women then you're some sick bastard, sex is to please the male. (hence why guys are ugly and women are beautiful, is it that hard to figure out) and the world really needs to stop with the political correctness BS rhetoric, men are the leaders and there is no such thing as equality! I hope the men in this society soon resume complete control again or the future will be bleak for human kind.

How does anything exist at all?

Religion is a cultural icon.

If you are born in the west you are Christian.

Middle East Muslim

Far East: Buddist, hindu, taoist, etc.

But my question is both philisophical and historical in nature.

If you are not of European decent yet reside in America you are only christian because of the atrocities commited during European imperialism (ie destruction of the Aztecs, and the African Slave trade). Had the Europeans stayed on the continent one could argue that Blacks would either be tribal or would have converted to Islam during Islams "Golden Age" that swept across africa. If you are of American decent (native american, mexican, etc.) Then you would still have your culture and religions which were farely impressive for their day. Both groups lost your language and most of your heritage. Your ansectors were killed and enslaved and yet you subscibe to your conquers religion.

How do you feel about this? What is your reasoning? Do you see things in a different light now?

I am having a hard time with this. Should I lie to my daughter and tell her there is a Santa? I know when I found out I been lied to by everyone I knew and was scammed by everyone it made me not trust anything in life. I really think learning there was no Santa and that I was lied to by everyone I loved for 7 years of my life or so really messed my outlook on life up.

Is it better for a child to have something made up to believe in even though we are lying and instead of teaching morals ect we are teaching out kids to lie.

Or would it be better to always be truthful to a child and let them learn the life lesson that you have to work hard for everything you get. Nothing is free and that lying is not right to do no matter what and you can trust your parents no matter what.

Your chance of Eternal Life is decided here on earth. You have choice to accept or reject Jesus Christ as your Saviour. The only man ever to walk the earth that was perfect, that was sent from God, his only son, to be a sacrifice for men. Your choice is NOW, not because of works or baptism when you were a child gets to into heaven, its a personal choice between you and Christ. I hope you make the choice before its too late.

One theory ascribed to religion is that it provides governance for the masses and was possibly created by political leaders. Could someone explain when and where this happened or how it works? Or perhaps a scholar who posits this view I can read? Thanks.

[Note] Yes, I am aware of Voltaire's warning not to tell the servants there is no god or they will steal the silver. I am looking for something more comprehensive and substantial.

I was just wondering, since a lot of people seem to forget the religious significance of Christmas. A lot of people might also be interested to know that certain Christmas traditions, such as Christmas trees and exchanging gifts, have pagan, not Christian origins.

By the way, in case any of you are wondering, I'm a Deist who celebrates Christmas. I love spending time with my family, exchanging gifts, and pigging out!

You always say, "You can't see air or wind but it exist"

Air can be trapped in a balloon.
Can you trap God in a balloon?

Wind can be detected and we can even test the speed of it
Can you detect how fast God is flying through the air?

We can make an air tight room
Can we make a God tight room?

YOU GOD BELIEVERS DONT THINK. YOU JUST FOLLOW

How many different psychics did you use, were you satisfied, did they make predictions and did they come true and how much did it cost? I do tarot readings but wanted to see other's experience with persons who say they are really psychic.

I feel Americans are the most broad minded people ever! (I am an Indian btw).I am at times astonished how the Americans are always ready and willing to accept people with any kind of background, even the weirdest of people are not that weird for them. Americans never detest anybody just because of thier strange customs, infact I feel that the Americans are genuinely interested to find out about other cultures and traditions. Whereas the people in other countries would only mock and ridicule if somebody is different and not like them, it seems so very difficult for them to accept changes. What do u think?
