I am an atheist who thinks its never moral or necessary to murder an incarcerated human being. Why do so many religious people disagree with me?

how worthy each & every one of you are!? I have been searching through Yahoo Answers for the past 4 months and I have seen alot of negativity about another person's racial background, gender, or tastes in music religion etc. I mean we were all created by the same God but with different skin, eyes, and hair color & unique personalities! Why can't we all just appreciate the kind of people we are and stop judging others. Love & Peace to all of you.

Just because they are (to our knowledge) incapable of the level of deductive reasoning that humans are capable of, does this make them any less worthy of having souls?

If god is as benevolent as he claims to be, why wouldn't he give nonhuman animals souls?

Why?!

To my understanding, the body is an extension of the soul and the mind is the consious body of the soul. Thus, anything that is capable of thought and has a physical body, has a soul.

Now, do animals think? They obviously have a body, but do they think? Do humans think? In a scientific view, thoughts are a chemical reaction in the brain used to solve problems. Well, are animals capable of solving problems? Yes, they have to every day just to survive. So I would believe them capable of thought. Therefore, animals think.

"I think, therefore I am"

So why in the world do you think they don't have souls?!

Many devout Christians identify strongly with the Republican party. Based on the descriptions of him in the Bible, what would Jesus admire about the Republican platform?

Stun people ahead of you in the movie line? Blast the snarling dog next door out of existence? Set it on low and have a weenie roast?

Come on, you wouldn't be totally responsible with it. Who or what would you zap, besides me for asking this?

"Several reports quoted senior Iraqi officials as saying the execution would take place at 0600 local time (0300 GMT) on Saturday."

"Saddam Hussein will be hooded with hands tied behind his back
Government and religious officials, a lawyer and a doctor will act as witnesses
The execution will be filmed to provide proof of his death
"

I bet all muslims will be upset at this. haha! :P

Throughout life I’ve been taught not to make assumptions. How is faith different than making a huge assumption?

Whenever you ask Christians about things like disasters, the death of innocent people, temptation, etc, their response is, "God gave us free will."

In other words, they are saying that what we do to ourselves, and this planet, is entirely up to us.

But at the same time, Christians also say that you can "pray" to god for things... resistance from temptation, recovery from illness, safety of a loved one in a disaster, and that sometimes (but not always) god will intervene.

So which is it? And how does it work? Is it how hard you pray? How often? How many pray together? Is it Luck? Chance? Your faith? Piousness?

For that matter... wouldn't it then be in our best interest to start to pray for a reduction in global warming right now? How about the national debt? Iraq? Bush growing a brain? Why don't the scientists all bow down and pray at mission control when the Space Shuttle approaches?

Should I pray to Taco Bell so my next burrito isn't tainted?

Jesus has paid the price that we could never pay so that we can have a personal relationship now with God and eternally in heaven. Most people I talk to say they have been good enough to get into heaven. have you been good enough and why do you think so?
