Christians, Muslim and atheists are always in the front row bashing and insulting each other. But I have ‘almost’ never seen anyone bashing and insulting Judaism and Jews in a certain offensive way.
This is definitely wonderful and admirable.

What’s your observation and why you think if it is so?

new militant atheism growing in the West.

Saying, "Islamo-fascism is evil incarnate...Islamists are very different. We (Christians) will die for what we believe. They will kill for what they believe."

One of the Reverends called Mohammad a "demn possssd pedphl."

Another said, "...a virulent strain of atheism which seeks to destroy our belief system."

Do you agree that these are dire threats to the 'West'?

Why is it that we are the 'odd' ones here, often giving lengthy and provocative answers?

I can't help myself laughing when I read some posts recently on a very simple and straightforward question but the LONGEST was from a Theravadin Buddhist, going from scratch to enlightenment.

Honestly, that was a GOOD post but I wonder if a non-Buddhist would ever comprehend what we're trying to explain to them?

I can't help but being labeled as a long winded person myself. Is it just 'us' or has it got to do with our commentary/Dharma books which influences our ways of intellect after years of nerdy readings?

LOLs...

My friend keeps saying it to me and everything, and I seriously don't know what it means. He also says, Yo quiero mamii. But I figured that out. Any help would be appreciated!

I'm not gay but live in a gay neighborhood. It is the NICEST safest neighborhood I ever lived in in my life - the people are so sweet and loving and caring - to me the nicest people I ever met are living in the gayborhood.
I was considering becoming Christian again (I used to go to church when I was a little kid) But after reading the attitudes on this board by SOME religious people toward gays, it completely put me off being Christian. I love gay people and have found out they are not choosing to be gay, they just are. This board has taught me that Christians (unlike atheists, buddhists, others) have a bad attitude to gays which has completely put me off becoming a Christian again -I am sure Jesus wouldn't have wanted them to be spoken about the way people on this board do and I think it is very possible the bible got a bit messed up in translation. What happened to Jesus' love for all - did anyone else find this board made them less likely to take up going to church again?

On Sunday at Church I heard about this little girl who has a brain tumor and she's not doing so well. Anyone who reads this please pray for her. Find a way to email this to everyone you know and have them pray too. Thank you.

I am a homosexual male and I always thought gay activism, pride, and protests, are stupid. I have asked several questions about the "issue" of homosexuality and nobody seems to answer seriously. Is this the real issue with gay people? I was led to believe my problems are caused by religious fundamentalism and heterosexual intolerance. But many of the people I have made friends with over the years are not gay. Why is this? When I attend gay pride, I don't feel a sense of "pride" because I am not like other gay men. Am I the only homosexual who feels this way?

I mean this country is the most affluent country in the World and slowly but, surely the Christian religion is falling by the wayside more and more. Do we need to be poor to appreciate God more?

If we are saved and following Christ's example, I think we should be using our online time to witness or get closer to God. We know that there are millions of people who will persecute us and laugh at our beliefs. I call all of my Christian brothers and sisters to stop all the debating. Let God work on your heart. We dont have to go online and defend our faith, our God will fight all of our battles. Get out of the house, off the internet and focus on your calling.

Everyone knows that the black and mexican minorities hate white people. Proof is that you can find a black defenseless woman alone in a white neighborhood at night, but you will never find a white defenseless woman going near a black neighborhood, ever. White people don't do anything bad, but... somehow it's wrong for a white person to be a racist, but for blacks it's perfectly okay.
Note: I am not a racist. I just don't like poor people who complain they are poor and don't do anything about it. I don't like lazy people. And if you are poor, then go convert to be a jew. Then you will have money, and for god's sake, stop playing video games as if you were going to get a lifetime achivement award for it. You know who you are.
