How many of you understand the phrase "God loves you"? I really have to wonder after reading some of the comments I see here. We get a bad rap for being intolerant and judgmental and some of you willingly prove it. I see this and I'm a freakin' fundamentalist.
Sure there are people here who want to yank your chain, belittle you and pose impossible-to-answer questions for the fun of it. Ha ha ha. So what. There are also people here who have serious questions. Maybe the way they phrase it makes you want to puke. Are you here to fight your personal battles or the Lord's?
If a question gets your feathers up, just ignore it. Move on. But if you do decide to answer a question, do it out of love and know what you're talking about so you don't end up mocking God.
Even if you answer out of love, some will still call you intolerant and judgmental. You should expect that. This world sucks. But we're called to "in the world, not of this world." So share the gospel of Jesus Christ the way He did.

Every Wednesdays I go and volunteer at a school for the entire day. This week, I will be unable to go because I'm feeling sick and I'm finding it difficult to stand straight without getting a pounding headache. Anyways, one of the teachers from the school e-mailed me today and asked me to substitute for her because she was sick but then I told her I will be unable to do it because I'm also sick. Shuold I feel bad for not being able to help her?

It seems there a two types of atheists. Atheists who need proof to worship and atheists who would not change their philosophy even if they had proof. Sort of reminds me of the Two Thieves. But which had more spine?

Dear Christians, are you opened minded enough to consider the fact of the possibility that "The 3 wise men" really could've been pagan, mesopotamian astrologers?
Also, how do you feel about the fact that whenever you put up a Christmas tree--that the celebration of decorating tree's actually originated w/Paganism?

By "age" I mean a physical number...like 4, 16, 32, 64, etc. Is life better when you are a teenager, a young adult, middle-aged, or a senior citizen? What do you think?

Ok, so I'm Atheist, right? And I've butted heads with pleanty or religious people in my time, and I've come to see it as kind of like polotics: one side KNOWS that they are right, and the other sude is wrond, and the other side thinks the exact same thing. Religious people just cannot believe that people could doubt their God, while we are baffled at how they could actually believe there is one. While I think that a world without religion would be a much better place, I guess scince that's not going to happen any time soon we'll just have to get along (kind of like republicans/democrats in congress/white house). Who's with me? SHould we all just get along? Or should we scwabble endlessly about who's right? I say, Atheists, just ride with it and only intergect when it interferes with polotics or how you're treated and such. Religious people, I know you're trying to "save" us, but it's not going to work. And besides, it's the thought that counts, right? Also, please don't descriminate?

When they say "Does not prevent STD's or AIDS."
If you are under the impression that birth control prevents disease, should you even be having sex?
Is this a symptom of how America is still woefully behind when it comes to the education in sexual and reproductive matters.
Damn religious right.

I grew up in a community that what pretty mellow when it comes to accepting other people's cultures. My brother is required though to take an ethnic class at his university and I was not. I think that is a good thing, but do you think the reason the university makes him take the class is because maybe racism is bigger than we think?

This may sound sick but I caught my 16 year old brother masturbating to a picture of Maria Sharapova in the nude in our basement recreation room. I found it repulsive he left the door opened and had tons of her pictures out with baby oil, hand lotion and other lube. I am offended by this and he is begging me not to tell mom and dad. I am 26 and I really dont want to talk about this with him. I thought he watched ladies tennis cause he liked the sport but now it seems as if its just to stare at Marias butt or legs. Eww. Do I tell mom and dad?

I am very sad. I am a 22 year old white female. I have always gone to the Martin Luther King Jr Parade, and participated in other events which were sorrounded by the civil rights movement. The sad thing is that when I go to the parades, I never see other whites there. I have wondered why. Many of the whites want to take advantage of the Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday by not going to work, or school, but not once do they think to participate in the MLK activities.
Fellow whites, why do you do this? Do you think that MLK day is not important? Don't you realize that not only did MLK bring about changes for this country, but helped us all realize that we can all live together equally. However I see many whites at other parades, and activities. But it's like they believe that MLK day is only for blacks. However many people benefited from this, including blacks and whites. What do you think?
