What about this?

OK, I enjoy the Answers!,Society and Culture section, however, I am very disturbed by the Religion and Spirituality Q&A.

I have a suggestion.

Fellow believers, please stop hounding the non-believers. It is not our place to tell people they are evil, or going to hell, or whatever else is being said. Please let them be.

Non-believers, please stop calling the believers morons, or mindless drones. Please let us be.

There, that would make the Society and Cultures section much mroe enjoyable. Dont you think?

Would you have taken this as a threat?? Please only serious answers?

It wasn't or at least I didn't mean it to be but what do you think? My former husband for the millionth time promised to call my daughter last night & again he let her down. I called him this morning & asked him if he believed in God because I truly & honestly believe that what comes around goes around. I stated that he really shouldn't be hurting someone that I love because someone he loves could get hurt. I tell my daughter that all the time, that if she wishes something bad on another person than something bad might happen to our family. Am I the only one that believes that & would you have taken that as a threat when I truly believe that's what will happen?

How can you really have free will if your born into a Religion?

Seriously? People always talk about free will and choosing...but if you are born into a religion and your parent bring you to church and you grow up thinking something is complete truth then how is that free will? I mean if I was born to a Jewish family in Jerusalem I would be Jewish right? If I was born to a Catholic Family in Mexico I would be Catholic....if I was born in Africa To a tribe that worships a Goat then I would worship the Goat...all the time thinking it was true and real. So how can anyone born into something really have free will? If you are born into something then how do you know that its the right choice and not just by chance that you are, Jewish,Catholic, Hindu, Buddihst, Muslim? And How can you be sure your right...because each group thinks they are.

I don't mean to be all up in yah biz.....BUT....?

At what age did you loose it? Its a survey to see if I'm right. My guess is that most guys loose their virginities between the ages 11-13 & girls 16-19. Just put the ages down, I don't need the details.
