Most of us Atheists come from Christian homes....So how would you all feel if your kids became Atheists? As strong of Atheists as some of us are?

Don't you think it can be argued that praying to Mary or any other deceased human being, whether a relative or a saint, is very wrong?

I was brought up Catholic and I love Christian meditation and Taize prayers, but at the same tiem I'm very drawn to Wicca with its focus on the Goddess, nature and feminine empowerment. How to reconcile my beliefs?

Character her self
Okay so my character Lee is a m to f living in
Seatle and she has been aloud to dress in 'girls clothes' by her mother all her life but never really I.D. as trans till 7th grade when she was still wearing girls clothes. Her entire family is supportive and her friend Ryan is but her other friend Gavin, afraid that him liking her makes him gay (which it doesn't) trys to make her act more 'masculine' (for a girl she is though, she does three sports, swimming basketball and baseball and is a trekkie like both of her friends)
Enviorment
In her school thought the staff (except her science teacher who is more worldly about like being trans) treat as though she still I.D.'s as a boy. They make her use the male lavatory, while on a cross country road trip with the school to New York, she's forced to bunk with the boys in all the hotels.
how others see her
The girls stick up for her and treat her like them, the boys sept Gavin Ryan and Marcus (who likes her) are mean.

You say I attack you, when some of you write the most vulgar insulting questions, about the God of my faith, when I never insult you or use profanity, and you want to tell me you are respectful. Some yes, many absolutely not. Tough, I stood up. You want respect you should try giving in first. I WILL NOT DISPUTE YOUR RIGHT TO NOT BELIEVE---I FOUGHT FOR IT! Understand?

you're still wet behind the ears.
We're getting nowhere.
It's the thought that counts.


What does "these three sentences" mean?

why is it that when there is a disaster such as a tornado ,hurricane ,etc they will not allow the home owners in to check their homes and belongings but they let the news media in to look and prowl through peoples belongings? i think this is insane

We come across such instances in the society, when kids grow up & go out of their places in search of a job or even for studies, and they more likely get a match of their choice & then wish to marry them. It is a common scene in the society. But don't you think that this situation will lead to a 'No Belief/Faith in the society after considerable change of generations in a family/community. Will it not finally erase the customs & traditions from our country & we will be a No culture society in the long run. In a broader sense it will finish the identities of Indians? Are intercultural, interreligion, intercommunity,interracial alliances not speeding it up? Should there be an open diccussion between the yeter yrs' people & the young people for a balanced & culturally rich growth of our society? will it help us ?

Sleep apnia is a consequence of snoring, not the other way around ! Isn't it true that problematic snoring - the ones as loud as a bloody train ! have usually brought this condition on themselfs, through poor diet, lack of exercise, excessive consumption of alcohol, smoking, poor lifestyle habits generally ! and offcourse have high blood pressure. Yet they make out their the bloody victim of this, usually their asleep the whole time - its everyone else who suffers - bloody selfish. Why can't it be viewed as a socially unacceptable behaviour, when all they need do is make lifestyle changes to avoid this gross condition. I say change now, strenghthen your larynx and stop being so bloody lazy. I suspect they know when their snoring but are to lazy to make the effort !

* Jesus did not even carry the cross -- Simon Cyre'ne, a passerby did! [Mk 15:21]
* Jesus of the Bible was NOT on the cross for longer than six (6) hours -- NOT three days -- (from the 3rd to the 9th hour) [Mk 15:25 & 15:33]
* Jesus of the Bible did not spend three days and nights in the tomb -- Friday night - until Sunday before dawn -- is not 3 days and nights!
* Jesus DID NOT claim to be God - or even equal to God!


I hope I made you think... Have a great day!
