This 2:25 minute video shows a cute little girl riffing on religion and Bill O'Reilly. It's clearly edited, but if you watch the cuts, a lot of the thoughts seem complete.

It presents an interesting, highly sophisticated take on some of the issues that arise in this Y!A forum. If you have the time, take a look and leave your comments.

1. “Being ignorant is not so much a shame, as being unwilling to learn.”

2. “Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance.”

I mean, there have been so many advances in modern forensics, things that hadn't even been dreamed of 10 years ago. So it's time we laid all the theories to rest once and for all. Lets get her dug up and a PROPER autopsy carried out this time, fully documented and beyond reproach. Otherwise we may never know the truth.

Plus, if they give you a blank look thinking you are a weirdo or something, how would that make you feel?

I'm thinking about converting to Islam because I think Christianity is fabricated and full of Pagan rituals. There's no Mosque where I am...so I do I convert? There are only Christian churches where I live. If I tell my pastor I think he will give me a long lecture, so I don't want to tell him.

If you are religious, then you obviously believe in a higher power. To simplify this, I will use God as an example.

If you believe in God, do you also believe in Allah, as a religion is based around him? What about Buddha, et al?

What are your interpretations of such things as the vigrin birth, the resurrection, the divinity of Jesus, the creation, the end times, etc.?

I ask out of respect and curiosity--I was raised in a mostly-literalist household, and I realized recently that with a few exceptions, I don't really know the non-literalist take on such things. Feel free to take any of the points I have mentioned, or any others that are important to you.

I got an email yesterday from my boss - she is taking up a collection from the department (10 people) to get the big boss (her boss) a $100 GIFT CARD for Christmas.

1. This big boss has never contributed to anything for any of us. Weddings, babies, retirements, etc. etc. His name is always conspicuously absent from the card.

2. This man makes a LOT of money. Probably $200K a year or more.

3. I find a gift card for the boss VERY inappropriate.

4. Nobody cares for him very much.

HOWEVER, if I do not contribute, it will be very evident that I did not. Both to my boss, and the big boss. I've spoken with two other people in the department, and they are very uncomfortable with it, too, but they will be giving anyway. We work in a very uptight, Fortune 500 company.

Now, if we were taking that $100 and making a donation in his name? I'd be for that. But to give him a gift card?

What do you think?
