Say they made a mistake or even very many mistakes previously but they are set on abstinence now until marriage, is wearing the ring slightly deceptive?

I have come to realize that all of us are just humans. I'm a catholic human and i choose to believe in that. No one can deter me from that. If i think it is real, why can't it be. Atheist humans will never understand me or my faith therefore they have no right to question it. I have no right to question their beliefs or whatever they call it, because i am not an atheist. I think we should all see each other for the human we are. Not our faith. Faith is personal and should be left to the human itself. Faith can be different from person to person. I am tired of arguing with everyone about faith and my faith. If i believe in God, whose to say I can't believe in him. If you don't believe in him I can't change that. We should all stop questioning each other's beliefs. Faith does not make the human. We are just humans on this one earth so as long as we are here we should stop complaining and start peace. Do you agree?

This is probably one of my most sophisticated jokes in my 18 months of yahoo answers, and the target audience is probably only 6 or 7 people who would recognize someone who would add details to a question and the fact its my 94th yahoo answers account.

Why do people that don't approve of Lesbian, Gay and Transgendered people post in this section? Or, for that matter even look at the questions?

stopped teaching their children about their beliefs and let them choose for themselves when they were 16 years old. How long to do you think it would take this planet to rid itself of this sick, sad mental delusion called religion?

As I state here http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AkWeVepF8B7no6vAW1CwJ7Dsy6IX?qid=20070622160626AACu9r8 - my washer blew up yesterday. Big clouds of black smoke. Who knew a washer could do this!

A repairman comes Monday at 10. Here's where you come in. Can you say a prayer that my washer is healed? That he finds nothing wrong and it works fine. This happens all the time with your car, why not my washer? If this happens - I promise to stop saying anything about Christians on here AND I will go to church and bring my kids, every day for a year.

It's really quite a deal. Lots to gain and nothing to lose for the believers. So - what do you say? (Other than find reasons why Jesus won't heal washers) Take a shot and pray for healing!

I just posted a question about if people would break the 6th comandment to put someone out of thier misery and this is one of the responses I got:
"A person's life force comes from God. When God is ready for that person to die, then He will take him. We should do nothing to "send him home" before his time"

And not to pick on this person in anyway (as I got some similar to this) but I can not understand the rational in God allowing someone to suffer something like Alzhiemers, post stroke symptoms that leave the person totally bed bound and contracted having to bed fed with a g-tube, advanced ALS or Parkinsons. I used to work in a nursing home and would see this all the time, people totally bed bound yet still around for years. I am not questioning the cause of these things or if God caused them yet the rational explanation as to why God would continue to allow these people to suffer and not just bring them "home".

Shakespeare would have been 46 years at the time. In Psalm 46, the 46th word from the first word is Shake and the 46th word from the last word in Psalm 46 is Spear. Coincidence?
No one knows for sure! What do you think?

I just watched a video that talked about a school who made a rule stating that there was no touching allowed on campus. Several months ago, there was that whole ordeal where the Aliso Niguel principal, Dr. Charles Salter, banned the dances for inappropriate dancing. Are highschool principals getting too strict? Touching is a part of life...high fives, slaps on the back, fancy handshakes....it's all part of it! I don't understand, why you would completely ban something so harmless. Imagine all the strange conversations among the students AND teachers that followed. "Oh, sorry, man. I'd give you a high five but Mrs. What's-Her-Face is standing right there." And everyone knows that there WERE better solutions to solving the freak dancing problem at Aliso Niguel. That shouldn't have been a big deal from the start. People now a days are generally less reserved than they were several years ago.

My question is...
Do you think principals and teachers are too strict, nowadays?

Apparently from my last question, I don't know atheists or what they are about. So you know what. WHat are you atheists all about? I need to ask you guys several questions. What created you? Your mom and dad did but who created them? and so on and so on. Who created the universe? Who created the Big Bang. Who created science? Who created everything and nothing? How far can atheists go into answering these questions? sure atheists will have answers to these questions like the universe was created by the big bang but then ask yourselves who created the big bang. It goes on forever but science can't explain everything. There must have been an ultimate creator who created all these things. if you disagree then explain everything.

Sounds like it was invented by man to keep people in line. Can you see this religious people? Or do you refuse to?Strange how something you thnk is so true has to be taught with scare tactics. I don't remember any scientists threatening to send me to eternal hell for refusing to believe in the theory of gravity.

One of my questions refered to the book of Proverbs. One of the answers given was "How could Jesus have *anything* to do with the book of Proverbs? It was written LONG before he lived."

I'm confused; Is everything in the Bible viewed as the word of God/Jesus? Including the book of Proverbs?

There are numerous incidents of learned sincere men of other faiths embracing Islam while not a single person who understood Islam leaves it. No one can show a sincere scholar of Islam forsaking his religion for other religion, while we hear Priests and Rabbis accepting Islam. Some one will say because they fear death. Where on earth can death be applied, may be in Saudi Arabia or Iran. What about Muslims in the west or in a democratic country as India where one is free to practice anything.
