even if its only a few steps? I have seen these rather obese individuals avoid two steps to walk down the ramp reserved for the handicapped! It's utterly proposterous and I demand an explanation!

Assuming God must either exist or not exist creates a paradox which cannot be answered. This is because humanity has literally changed the definition of reality in the last 350 years. The philosophy of Plato and Aristotle (about 400 BC) defined reality as idealistic and solipsistic, meaning that subjective experience was considered absolutely real and objective reality was considered an illusion created by our minds. Based on this philosopby, St. Augustine (about 390) invented the concept of the soul to explain how both conscious awareness and Christ's promise of eternal life was possible. Educated western civilization universally accepted this view until science began to discover, beginning with Gallileo (about 1590) that the physical realm is actually real and subjective experience is an illusion created by our living brains. This means that God actually does exist in subjective experience and simultaneously that He does not exist in objective reality. Is compromise possible?

I want to ask my doctor if he's gay. I know it's none of my business but sometimes he sounds so camp. I can't help it because sometimes he talks manly but sometimes his mannerisms are feminine. He is quite attractive and I just have to know if he is in fact gay. What is a polite way to ask him? Any suggestions would be very helpful.

have they been around since the time of Jesus, or even before it? Are they preserving the inner meaning of the Bible, just as Shias and Sufis preserve the esoteric meaning of the Quran?

These are the basic beliefs of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

Here is the Article:

We believe that a man must be called of God, by prophecy, and by the laying on of hands by those who are in authority, to preach the Gospel and administer in the ordinances thereof.

Again, I am looking to see if you agree or disagree with these principles... not any biased "opions" on what people think Mormons believe.

Many people ask what Mormon's believe... these Articles of Faith explain it in it's simplest form. Most Christians will see that we share a lot of the same beliefs.

What do you think?

He thinks he can just throw on a white collar and priest outfit, and walk in and out of patients rooms.

He really thinks no one will catch him if he pretends he's from another hospital.

He got on this kick because he recently went to see someone in the hospital and noticed a great lack of security and how everyone can roam around freely.

You ask, why does he want to do this? Just to prove that he can get away with it.... what do you think of this?

He's in his mid-30's.

I use to go to the christian chat rooms. I noticed after becoming friends with several athesist and agnostics that they tend to want to argue with christians more than any other religion. I went to muslim rooms, jewish,hindus,buddhist. And never were the athesist would come in there. I asked my friend one day why come in here all the time? Why not the hindus or something they got thousands of gods? He said christians were more fun to aggravate. So why is it? What is it about us christians that seem to be a magnet why dont athesist and agnostics ever talk about the other religions?

Why do we waste our time trying to convince the other that what we believe is correct. We all really know that nobody is going to change their mind from what they read on yahoo answers. Not trying to be critical, as I do it too, just want to know what you think.
