I know that you do not believe Jesus was God, but what do you think of his teachings and moral philosophy.

Do you believe that there is any justification for violence in today's society?

"you are in light , others are in dark , you are unique others are morons, you are special others are dumb."

This is the way every cult religions act's to isolate their followers apart from the rest of the world , and brainwash them step by step.

Why the christian / Islam followers think - they are unique and the outside world is moron. they are gifted . .? out side world is evil and scary place :-)

The pastor will hug the follower and " I'm happy you have come " you are in light - they are in dark ?

It is at the end of my relationship, and while I can realize the relationship is pretty much over, I need concrete answers as to the why it is over. (as a side here, It both is and is not a standard relationship in question, but it was meant to be a relationship in all aspects).

The other person throws out pretty generic answers:
“Because I just don’t feel it anymore,” (responses of that nature)
My response is “Why, what changed?” “Give me a list,” (I need the real meanings, hurtful or not).
“What did I do wrong?”
“You did nothing wrong.”
“If I didn’t do anything wrong, then what’s the issue?”
I don’t think he actually hears me when I say I am a failure.
He claims I am making it too logical and analytical.
I say that if (hypothetically that is) we were in counseling or talking to a third party, the same sort of in depth questions would be posed, he seemingly disagrees with that.
He feels that he doesn’t need to validate any of his responses, I disagree.
He thinks that by saying he is really sorry, and he didn’t mean to hurt me, et al, that somehow I should just readily accept it. I don’t.

So now I come to y’all…and let me say this: While sympathy is nice and much appreciated, I do also need the “brute” honesty of your answers.
Am I in the wrong for needing more explanation? Should I just accept his basic answers, or should I keep probing?
Is he wrong to get flustered when I do probe for more, or since he is the one who wants to end, should he buck up and lay it all out?

OK instead of rushing for the report button who has the brains to actually debate the issue or grown up attiudes as the question is legit


If the relgious want to promote absteinance how come they dont support porn, strippers, sex toys, tossing -- off, bean flicking etc... Or even oral ...

As thats what absteinance is really about... Single people have the same needs and feelings and desires and urges as those in married couples and get frustrated and stressed and lonely.

So why then do relgious groups criticise and condems the alternatives to sex ie 1001 ways to pleasure yourself, Become the biggest sellers of sex toys and porn, or strip joints? In particular to teenagers who are the horniest and who these peole want to abstain the most? It beats the next alternative... becomming violent, nasty and hurtful calling people dirty fornicating wicked whores and abusing kids.

would you be happy that you are finally going home, or would you pray to God in the name of Jesus to heal you? Me if the cancer was not that painful and it felt OK, and I had a right standing with God, i would rejoyce at the doctors clinic and when I got home.I would be happy that in a matter of weeks I will be falling asleep in my sleep hopefully and waking up in glory. I would be wrapped that I would be going home. So what would you do rejoyce or cry and get scared? At my funeral I do not want my mother and family to cry, I would want them to be happy that I have gone home after all these horrible years. At atheists funnerals there is a big difference, they are all balling like anything like they have no hope, and a Christians they are a bit upset, but more glad the person has finally gone home. Christians- do you long to go home? If I seriously diagnosed with cancer, as I came close to that in 2001 when I had surgery to remove my abnormal pre cancer cells. So anything can happen.

I have travelled to Southeast Asia and Western Europe recently for vacations, and found practically all people I encountered were very warm and welcoming. Both times I travelled I met great locals and travellers alike who seemed more interested in the USA and what life is like living there, rather than be critical of myself for being an American. Both times I was a little nervous thinking I would be hated for being American, but I did not find that to be the case. Even people from the middle east I ran into were very nice and respectful, and seemed to have no issue of me being American. With all the polls and press, saying that most of the world is Anti American I didnt see it. What are your thoughts?

Why is porn considered expolitative always when other industries have sweat shops or slave labour?


Many porn stars, nude models, and pole dancers earn a fortune sand have lots of fun and are treated very well.

I have worked with companies associated with playboy and the nicest boss ever.


Pole dancing is what? keep fit, chaging clothes, dancing, acrobatics and flirting .

Nude modelling is getting your photo taken and looking pretty so guys all think you are fit.

Yes you may get bad operators...and child porn but most legit companies feel the same about that as you.



But now look at trainers and child slave labour in swweat shops or working for pennies, human trafficing for restaruants and clothing manufactures in sweat shops,.

3rd worls people starving as we pay nothing virtually.


How about arms manufactures selling to dictators?

Relgious gropus abusing kids in kids homes.

Or how about the diamond industry and getting married...?
