I guess what I am trying to get at is, how do those respective nicknames relate to African-Americans and Mexicans? What do those names mean and why are they associated with those respective peoples?

so you could live this blissfully happy life that religious people do? Or do you think that religious people know it is all man made really but pretend otherwise?

I am part Irish, but I am also part English and Scottish. I like my English and Scottish sides better because both my Scottish and English side had nobility and royalty in it, and they kicked the crap out of the Irish for more than 800 years, so I decided I would rather associate myself with winners rather than loser peasants. Plus, the Irish are drunks, they are poor, and they vote Democrat in the elections. (I am a Republican)

By no means do I have a religion; I have my own beliefs, yet they are not set in stone (open minded). I was just wondering if my beliefs were more Atheist or Agnostic.

I base my beliefs on science (factual and theoretical). I do not believe in this so called "God," but I do believe that SOMETHING started the universe (as well as possible parallel universe, etc.) billions of years ago (or more). I call whatever started this 'god', only because I have no other term. It may have been a tiny piece of matter, who knows. NO ONE KNOWS.

I believe in opposites. Eg. Without good there is no bad, and vise versa. I believe everything equals out. I do not worship any entity. And yet, I disbelieve in any gods or anything related only 99.9%, as opposed to 100%.

I need evidence that something exists, but I need evidence that something doesn't exist as well.
I can't sit here and say that there is NO god. However, I can say that any god whom anyone on earth may BELIEVE IN does not exist.

why when someone asks you a question about life or your beliefs, must you quote from scripture. Dont you have your own ideas and logic? Does it ever seem to you that by having a programmed response, even if it is based on scripture, denies you of your own thinking and beliefs? ....... have you ever thought that by denying yourself to doubt or to question things that you know in your own heart are ilogical, enable you to loose your free will and become brainwashed?

I have heard the Pope changed it, and then I have heard some people say no the Pope didn't. Does anyone really know why it was changed and by who?

I sent a close relative a gift quite awhile ago for a special occasion. I mailed it to their home and I know they received it because my mom mentioned it. I don't expect to be thanked profusely but an acknowledgment might be nice... so at least I know they got it. Am I wrong in wanting to at least know they received it? (The only reason my mom knows is because she saw the gift in their home, not because they told her to tell me they got it.) I always make sure to let someone know I got their gift or thank them for the gift. Even if it's a few weeks later.

Different religions claim different shapes(forms) of God vis-a-vis there are so many who say there is no God. But definitely there is something which everyone believe to be a super power which governs the universe, everywhere. whatever happens, is the result of somebody's willingness or what is that.?

Christians follow Jesus. Jesus told us to love our neighbour and to love one another as he loved us.

Then why the vitriol on this site from some people against Catholics?

Is it not hypocritical to hate and yet call yourself a christian in the same breath?
