Can you really bat both ways on this? Slavery was once the law of the land, state-sanctioned racisim was once the law of the land, and now wholesale genocide is the law of the land.

Do you really believe that because the "law" make something legal/illegal, this is the moral compass in which to make a logical decision? Or is mob-mentality the only solution?

Your thoughts, please.

And please don't go there with the coat-hangers, etc. Roughly 50 million American(s), or 1 in six people in society simply do not exist since 1973, and the number of deaths in the previous 100 years due to botched abortions(another "choice") don't even come close to those numbers.

Ok the one thing i dont get is why do the religious think they are better than the other? i mean wars have started because they think they are better than others. people die over these issues! why is it that there way to the answer is right and everyone else's is wrong? Why cant here be more than one answer? why cant there be more than one god? why cant there be no god? why cant the bible be wrong? why is it that we have closed our doors to all outside advice and pulled the sheep's woll over our own eyes? i know its comforting but if god gave us a brain to think with then why dont we think for ourselves?

But that the choice was about being homosexual and choosing to have sex. (This kinda of reiterates the 'love the sinner not the sin' theory.) But do you think that having sex is that much of a choice? To me it is a natual occurrence.
I no more think that sex is about choice than eating, drinking,sleeping or urinating...They are all simple biological functions and drives. To me telling me not to have sex is telling me to think about anything except an elephant.(of course everyone imagines an elephant at this point).
And BTW how many straight people ever give up sex because 'it is wrong'--that they are unmarried and the bible says that it is wrong? I concede maybe a few nuns and,( well, priests have certainly shown what an artificial environment can do to people) might have--but they hardly lead normal lives.
... Anyone agree? or disagree?

Since he saw his teaching had been all screwed up he just went back and the second coming is all over? Does that mean Christians have wasted thier lives telling us all we'll be judged?

When you meet someone who isnt a Christian do you try to tell them about God and Jesus or not? What about close friends who arent Christians?

I find myself angry every day. My neighbors and their unsightly junk, cars, RVs. We have local ordinaces that the police do not enforce (even they ignore the ordinaces too!) No one has pride in their property anymore. I have complained, been to town meetings. It just isn't working. I am tired of complaining and being angry. I just want to be able to look past all the problems in our neighborhood and be positive. I don't want to be a hermit or a prisoner in my own home. Its not only the neighbors but the drive to work is unhealthy also. Everyones in a hurry, They pass you on the right, run red lights and almost kill people. I use my middle finger and horn daily. I am done..... HELP! Moving is out of the question at this time>

In my informal empirical study conducted each weekday day in a major downtown area, they seem to take the latter choice every time.

Being that Jesus himself was a homeless person, what can we make of this (if anything)?

Does this imply that he was her sister?
Ancient Egyptian royalty married their sisters to continue their bloodline. And obviously the sons of Adam and Eve had to have relations with their sisters...
Just an observation.

Man!!! some good questions were reported, so were my answers! It surprised me a bit cos' the Yahoo God is kinda slow in removing posts... (in cases where I've reported some real and genuine errant users, their posts are still not removed---yet!)...

How should we please the Yahoo Gods and hope that they won't entertain abusers and be abusers themselves (so they won't contradict themselves?)?

I've always been an Atheist but was wondering if I chose to get into vampirism if it is considered a religion because then I wouldn't be atheist, right?

I feel his drain of energy my friend has on me. He's negativity and just lack of knowledge really sucks me dry. I can't talk to him about God. Without him trying to insult him. He's a guy that believes in pagan witchcraft stuff like divination. He believes in astrology signs, and taret cards. He doesn't live a moral life and won't change. I'm feeling he's unintentionally trying to ensnare me into his world of sin.

Question: Why do some atheists feel the need to answer ANY question by a Christian with, 'God doesn't exist'

My Deleted Answer: True dat.

Why not have the asker reported? But you report me for agreeing? The statement was true. Or do Atheists only care about truth when it suits them? Was my answer really so offensive to you? Wow. That's all I can say.

i mean, i know it's easy to make fun of them with their "mythological logic" but shouldn't we at least try to be nice to them when they post questions like

Evolutionists: What about the the Law of Conservation of Angular Momentum?

at least they're trying to use science, even if they don't understand it.

(and i'm not referring to the christians who have intelligent Q & A's)

what do you say, can you try to be nicer?

If I am unable to attend a wedding, do I send back the RSVP? There is no space to check for unable to attend only for number of people attending.

Some Christians say that marriage requires God. I say God is imaginary and the bible is fake. My friends' wedding last month was presided by over a judge, with no bible and not one mention of God, Jesus or any supernatural mythology.

I reject your God, therefore I reject His supposed definition of marriage. Marriage is a civil contract regulated by the government. Married people filing taxes differently has nothing to do with church and everything to do with law.

So, if according to the first ammendment, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion...", it means you can't outlaw it because *your* Holy scripture says it's wrong.

Why do certain Christians assume only Christian marriages are legal?

to me it's selfish act. It's obviously lustful, and you focus on idolizing someone. Don't people know to do that is to defile God's temple? It seems like even some Christians seem to want to deny it being wrong so they can continue. Sin is natural, but it's not right to sin.

My fiance has 2 celtic iron cross tattoos, and all he will tell me is that he earned them. I cant get any other explaination, which is fine it just keeps nagging at me. It's knot work, but its continuous, it never stops. If that makes sense. Furthermore one is white, one is black. So just out of curiousity does anyone know how he might have earned them?
