I want real answers. Not "the bible told me so" or "my parents brainwashed me" or "I needed someone to bring me to salvation."

I'm curious. Real, intelligent answers from intelligent people.

you?


I read in Matthew 12:36, 37 "But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned."

Then we read in Luke 6:45, "A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh."

Just watched some sketches of João Kleber's candid camera show, and iin one sketch the host calls some female passers-by "Piranha" and then their temper flares...so I guess it may be a very offensive term....

One morning this woman woke up and said to her husband, “I had the strangest dream. They were auctioning off penises. The long ones were going for one hundred dollars and the thick ones were going for two hundred dollars.” Her husband asks, “What were the ones like mine going for?” “Oh they were giving them away” she replied. Her husband said he had had a dream too. In his dream, they were auctioning off vaginas. He said, “The pretty ones were going for one thousand dollars and the tight ones were going for two thousand dollars.” She asks, “What were the ones like mine going for?” He said, “Oh that’s where they were holding the auction.”

How can the Watchtower write TWO history books about themselves which emphasize repeatedly their assertion that the time of the end began in 1914, while failing to mention that up until 1925 (and possibly later), they insisted that "any reasonable mind" would recognize the "physical facts" were proof that the Time of the End began in 1799? (The Harp of God, page 234, 1925 edition, published by Watchtower)

Is that "whitewashing" their history? What is your opinion?

Their diapers in heaven? Maybe God have the angels change the diapers. I hope their bodies are so perfect in heaven that the need to eliminate waste is eliminated. Wouldn't it be nice if our bodies were that perfect on earth?

Why can’t I just say “I’m an Atheist” without it turning into a theological debate? Other people can say “I’m a Hindu” or “I’m a Jew” or “I’m a Christian” and no one questions that. I live in the bible belt. I always have this overwhelming feeling that I have to represent Atheists as best I can; dress nice, be kind and intelligent, but it’s a lot of pressure to constantly feel that I speak for an entire group of people.

In real life, I’m just a normal person trying to have a normal life. I don’t go around sparking religious debates. Just an hour ago, I dared to mention that I was an Atheist and I was pounced on by every “Proud Christian” in the room. I’m at school right now (college) and feeling a little vulnerable and ganged up on. I don’t believe that the Christians that were trying to convert me were doing so just for a selfless cause to save my soul. They were too eager. Too excited at the prospect, the challenge, like I was a project. Why? Have they no empathy?

I can be humble but I am mostly opinionated. I like my values and general life style. When should someone care or listen to a difference of opinion?

In the airport last week, I found an atheist pamphlet. There was an article that said atheists need to stop wasting their time debating issues such as evolution because it is basically a resolved topic. The author suggested that atheists "declare victory and move on."

What are your thoughts? Are atheists "wasting their time" by debating certain issues? What should they "move on" to?

COME ON! SERIOUSLY!
I mean, if you are serious about worshiping the Dark Lord, isn't it a little--I don't know if I'm phrasing this right--but SILLY?! to buy it from a mainstream bookstore when Satanism is [mostly] about hedonism and rejecting the mainstream?
WTF?!

Not practice them, but learn about them. How many of your have had the intellectual capacity to learn something about people of other faiths, before judging them. I bet not many. So many people blindly condemn other faiths, and those that practice those faiths. If you could honestly say you researched a certain religion, than maybe your arguments against it could hold some water. Ignorance is not an excuse, or a reason to judge.

I try to boycott them but they are all over the place. Can't we make them in the U.S? I bought a hammer and within 3 swings, the head fell off. Taking short cuts and cuting costs to the point that a hammer doens't work right is rediculous.

Religions have killed more people than Nazism and Socialism.
They also gave us the middle ages, when they got all the power, and created scientific and economic stagnation. However religion has done lots of good right? Like teaching ethical behaviour and helping the poor. And if we do a careful balance perhaps the good balances the bad or even outweights it. Is this correct?.
