According to a study by Paul Bell, published in the Mensa Magazine in 2002, there seems to be an inverse correlation between intelligence and religious belief. Analyzing 43 studies carried out since 1927, Bell finds that all but four reported such a connection, concluding that "the higher one's intelligence or education level, the less one is likely to be religious or hold 'beliefs' of any kind." A survey published in Nature confirms that belief in a personal god or afterlife is at an all time low among the members of the National Academy of Science, only 7.0% of which believed in a personal god as compared to more than 85% of the US general population.

Should dogs marry before sex? We humans were animals, and we used to have sex with anybody we see, naturally, and now catholics made "No sex before marriage", its silly, you dont see horses getting married, we are no different, sex is reproduction, its silly how modern we have become, i dont think god cares if we have sex outside marriage.

Hi,

I got weed for Christmas from someone at my work lol. I’ve never actually had my own weed before, but I’ve smoked with my friends before, but I don't really have a sense of how much I actually have. And, i don't really know what kind it is or how to identify it or anything lol.

Does this look like a 1/8th? That’s what I’m thinking.. I don't have a scale. Also, is there some way for you to see what kind it is? I know this is probably unlikely, but who knows. maybe lol.


Thanks :D

Like in the song 'Pardon Me' by Incubus:"Pardon me while I burst
Pardon me while I burst A decade ago, I never thought I would be.
A twenty three on the verge of spontaneous combustion. Woe-is-me But I guess that it comes with the territory. An ominous landscape of never-ending calamity. I need you to hear. I need you to see. That I have had all I can take And exploding seems like a definite possibility To me So Pardon me while I burst into flames.
I've had enough of the world, and its people's mindless games
So Pardon me while I burn, and rise above the flame Pardon me, pardon me. I'll never be the same. Not, two days ago I was having a look in a book And I saw a picture of a guy fried up above his knees I said I can relate Cause lately I've been thinking of combustication as a welcomed vacation from. The burdens of the planet earth, like gravity, hypocrisy, and the perils of being in 3-D...
And thinking so much differently. Pardon me while I burst"...Tell me how to do that.

Yeah they do, it makes their music sound better, and people say crap like "That band is just about sound effects", well why dont you go say this crap about Dr Dre, his music is alll sound effects, all he does is rap to it. Maybe if other bands started using sound effects more, they would be good, jesus

You church people keep saying stuff like how did all this happen by itself, and then you imagine a God who happened all by itself. If you deny the existence of Supergod, I can only conclude you are in league with the atheists, and I find that utterly despicable...kind of.
By the way, SUPERGOD never had any temper tantrums like his little God in the Old Testement, cause he is always in control.

The arabic speaking Jews and Christians call God Allah. The Bible in Arabic refers to God as Allah. Jesus spoke aramaic (ask your priest), and God in aramaic is Allah. Are you telling me that the arab christians living in the Holy lands to do worship the same God as you?

'Verily, you will find the strongest among men in enmity to the believers (Muslims) the Jews and those who are Al-Mushrikun (see V.2:105), and you will find the nearest in love to the believers (Muslims) those who say: "We are Christians." That is because amongst them are priests and monks, and they are not proud.' (Qur'an 5:82)

Everytime we get anti-america comments, americans tend to say crap like "You're just jealous" no we are not, thats why we're insulting you, not many people like americans, maybe we would be jealous if your country was any good, if it wasn't corrupt, or fat, or pure arrogant, i mean like 80% of the immigrants there are mexican, and you use immigration rates to back up saying your the best, you have more poverty than here, and you have more rich, is that corrupt or what? Your goverment is corrupt as hell, and no i dont want to be like you in anyway, i am jealous of the southern french people, but i love them, so maybe you say silly things like that to make yourselves feel better, and important, but your country stinks, you may have power, but you lose all these wars, and jump in to ours at the last minute to say "We saved you", you are arrogant pigs, your country really does suck, the people are fat and ugly and lol love america for the cheap food, tahst probably why - MERRY XMAS

This isn't a question just my opportunity to wish everyone reading this a very Merry Christmas. Take a moment to pass a thought for those in less fortunate circumstances than our own. Don't be embarrassed to wish a complete stranger a "Merry Christmas" that small gesture could mean alot to someone.
Thanks for reading this and once again, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

i always thought that nativity scenes didn't include the baby jesus figure until christmas day because he hadn't been born yet. i seem to remember this from childhood, yet the little guy's been in every manger setting i've seen this month. anyone else ever do it this way?

Also, is it classed as a religion? I'm just curious to find out seeing as most people assume wrong things about most religions and so perhaps satanism is misunderstood also? Perhaps.
