I had this teacher who I aggrevated with questions mostly ones she did not know the answer to (no body else did either for the most part). One day she looked angrily and told me I had to stay after school. I thought I was in big trouble.

After everyone left she told me I had to write my questions down because I was disrupting the class, and she would answer them as asked. I asked if she was mad at me for asking questions and she said no that there are only good questions and that asking questions was the fastest route to the truth.

On here I see many think questions are an irritation and classified as ridiculus by the answerers sometimes.

Are there really any stupid questions or are there only stupid people who think they have no questions left??? and do not even entertain the quetions of others either???

Chinese traditionally believes in predestined life. But it can be changed for anyway one wants if experts: astrologers or palmists are consulted. Usually they would suggest ways or living styles to change life usually for the better. Now comes the Christians some believe if they are saved it is because God already made them the elect even before they were born. So, that is to say, whatever you are you cannot have that life changed. If you do changed, it is because that was your predestined life. In other words, when one is an athiest, Christian, Buddhist, Taoist, Muslim etc it is because that is what he is according to the predestination. He would remain as such until kingdom comes.

I have prepared a Christmas get together and when asked what I was serving I told them horsd'eouvre's and sandwiches. They were upset and wanted to change it to something else. I told them that this was what was being served and they said, "fine i'll bring my own food.

I'm confused, my science teacher or the dumb priest? , My science teacher said that we evolve from some sort of a Ape , and the adaptation , survival , facing natures severity learning skills and love to the children has bring us to this stage. My friend told me that we are made from clay balls, and a priest told me that we are from Adam and eve, the world is made in six days.. I feel like its better to study the easy way. So I can just simply write the bible content to my science exam. The god is poerfull and he made the world in 6days . end of story!!! But . .

Is it not the same thing? A lack of self control. We do not baby alcoholics. We treat them like they have personal issues that they need to work on. Which is the way they should be treated. Now if you are so fat you can not walk from your car to the store then we let you park right in front of the store in the handicap spaces. Then we give you an electric cart to ride around in while you are in the store. We have to accommodate fat people or it is discrimination of some sort. We can not even call them fat because of political correctness. “They may have issues that they can not help”. They do have issues the same as alcoholics. Alcoholics can not keep liquor out of their mouth and fat people can not keep Twinkies out of theirs. Should we as a society not be tougher on fat people?

OK I keep hearing about how the new religion of "Secular Humanism" is trying to take over and wash away everything good and decent in the world (yes I am exaggerating)

Anyway what I am curious about is WHY do people call it a religion?

Definition of secular is as follows:
"1. of or pertaining to worldly things or to things that are not regarded as religious, spiritual, or sacred; temporal: secular interests.
2. not pertaining to or connected with religion (opposed to sacred): secular music.
3. (of education, a school, etc.) concerned with nonreligious subjects.
4. (of members of the clergy) not belonging to a religious order; not bound by monastic vows (opposed to regular)."

Is it a lack of knowledge about the English language that is the cause of this inappropiate name?

WHY would people term a new philosophy that is about not letting religion control society a new religion?
