I'm looking for an honest answer. I'm not interested in being put down, nor am I interested in lame answers (from Christians and non-Christians alike).

I would just like to know, in this allegedly "tolerant" society we are supposed to live in, why it is acceptable to put down Christ and Christianity.

Yet, if we insult Allah, Mohamed, Wicca, atheism, Hinduism, Buddhism, or a host of other beliefs we are often viewed as intolerant, narrow, or close-minded.

I am not asking this as a Christian, but as a man. I just want to know why it has become acceptable to use "Jesus Christ" as a curse in society, but not any other deity or religious figure.

Well I guess we all would, i mean to save a ;life just by some spoken words would be a great thing.

So why doesn't the Pope advocate the use of condoms in Africa to help stem the spread of Aids/HIV.

would God send anyone there, or even let a place like that exist? I understand that God only wants the righteous people in Heaven, but can't he put aside a place for the not-so-righteous? It doesn't have to be as good as heaven, but eternal torment? That's going a little far isn't it? Why can't he just send them to a place similar to Wisconsin or Utah? You know, somewhere a little more comfortable. Of course, not Heaven, it's established that certain people won't get in, but why torture those people for ever and ever? Why not just send them to a neutral place?

Do they wear convincing, human-looking disguises?

What other methods do they use to control their troll-ish tendencies?

But what would happen if the disguise should accidentally fall off or something?

(Notes: Although I phrased my question in a wacky fashion, I am genuinely curious as to how the trolls can 'put a lid' on their behaviour when they are away from their troll's playground

In my part of the world - depending on whether the offender is a child or an adult - it would be totally valid to scold [or even slap] the brat; or give him a stare of disapproval - or if he's in the wrong side of town, he might get himself into a fight).

I'm 19, but I feel older than my age. I don't have a lot in common with people my age and at my college. It could be the college where I'm at (which is why I'm transferring), but just in general, they like movies I think are stupid, and all people my age talk about are designer clothes, their drunken escapades, and just superficial things. I know I sound stuck up and I know I'm making a huge generalization here, and these are not my intentions at all. I just feel more comfortable around older people, people who have been around and care about the environment and philanthropy. Why is my generation so shallow and into material things?? I don't want to feel this way. I want to be able to hang out with kids my age, but at the same time I don't believe in a lot of things they do and think. What should I do?

Say you're in hell. You did something terrible, such as being a Catholic and failing to attend mass on Sunday. Can you say "OK I'm sorry. I accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior?" Will God say "Too late, game over. You must burn for eternity."?
