I always love the 4th of July because of the fireworks, and the cook-outs. This hasn't crossed my mind at all until now- What the heck are we celebrating? i know it's about America, but is it the day America was discovered or something? I have no clue. Please answer!!!

When it comes to 4th of July, a lot of people on my block blow off fireworks. The loud boom/noice really scares me. I close all the windows and try to go to the room where you can't hear them, but I still hear the BOOM!!! They remind me of bombs and of course those scare me. I am scared that they will catch something on fire!Any advice on how I can get over my fear? Or how to not hear the fireworks/firecrackers?

And, what spiritual merit is it to have to keep your true self hidden in the "closet" to assimilate with people who do not like what you are? Some of whom, if they knew, would likely do you bodily harm?

How can you find personal and spiritual fulfillment without being true to who you are?

For me, it is "Does Anybody Hear Her?" by Casting Crowns. You really have to watch the music video to truly understand it:

I thought I was going to cry at the end where she was in the restaurant.

I and my friend are starting a movement. This movement is to fight for this world and the people in it. We are both working together but we both have a different way of doing it. I want to focus on the American government and bring it back to a place that is full of morality, service to the people, and protection of the world. My friend plans to unite the organizations that truly want to help people and make one organization that helps people

Jewish people, thousands of years after, still believe that God gave them the bible. They must have been deluded, but how?

I am 31.....and will be a registered nurse in December (when I finish my last semester) I am just wondering. Many of you have such strong opinions, and I just wondered where and what part of life you are in. Thanks.

Sounds like a pretty good religion, whatever it is.

It's just like every other religion, so I have trouble understanding why people get their panties in a twist over them.

As a non religious person I like to pose questions that provoke thought (and maybe a little something else) in those who have such stifiling beliefs that they fear the natural process of life. Loosen up and live a little. If there is a God I doubt he/she/it is going to be upset that you enjoyed your life, body and short time on this planet.

So there's 6 billion people in this world....Do you believe that there is only ONE person for you? If so, how are you supposed to find that ONE out of 6 BILLION?

Or is it possible to be completely happy with more than just one person (still one at a time, but you know what i meant)??

A lot of people post questions and answers that are obviously trying to change people's minds regarding religion. Has anyone seen anything here that was compelling enough that it actually made you change your beliefs?

...is it just as effective to fight the nonsense of religious beliefs with the nonsense of religious belief?

I'd like to see the thing completely extinguished within my lifetime, so I'm looking for the most efficient methods.

It's not that far from Greenland and I was curious because singer BJork looks a lot like the people from Greenland who are for the most part a mixture of Nordic and Inuit.

Would god give a "weaker, subservient sex" the magical capability to maintain and sustain and give birth to new life? Why wasn't the man the vessel to give birth? Surely, if god is so great, he could have easily engineered the "plumbing" differently, right? So, what's so divine and magical about a man's 5 seconds of climax when he makes a few F faces and a sperm deposit? That's the end of his "miracle". The female is where the magic happens. God has to be a chick. Plus, we get to live longer on average, and experience less health problems overall. Plus, women are naturally more spiritually and empathically inclined.

All you dudes need to bow down. Burn your burkas! We are goddesses!!

I mean I am a Mormon and i have plenty of friends. We are not a cult. If you start calling the Mormon church a cult then i could call the baptists or whatever else there is the same, but i am a better person than that. I mean if you actually come to our church or read the book of mormon you would understand. I mean you have no right calling us what you people say we are when you dont even know anything about us. You just go along with what your friends or what you hear in a crowd. Yes we are not perfect and yes there are some bad people that call themselves mormons but if you met a true mormon than you would no the difference. We are people just like you and Personally I think some people are scared because they know we are the true church. So explain to me...
