I don't understand how a company could tell you what you can and can't do with your body. Where do we draw the line on what is or is not appropriate, and on who?

A few months back I was listen to the radio and I came across some religion program. The man was talking about tithing. He insist that tithing is about of the New Covenant but the didn't mention any scriptures to back him up. Is there any scriptures in the New Testament that back him up? (without Jesus criticizing the Pharisees)

The tree was the tree of knowledge, therefore they had no idea that what they were doing was wrong. "Death" and "sin" were just words to them, they had no meaning to them because they didnt know right from wrong. And before you say that it was wrong because "God told them not to", why would God plant that tree there in the first place then? Because he was testing them right? Why would he do that? Like I said before, they didnt know right from wrong, so the "test" would have been a failure from the beginning. Also, God knows everything, so he would have known that they would disobey him / get tricked, whatever you want to call it, so he bascially premeditated the downfall of man and knew it was gonna happen. And before you start with the "free will" stuff, Adam and Eve were completely ignorant of right and wrong, so therefore had nothing to base a decision off of to choose freely.

If you believe there is a spiritual world, tell me why/how.
Also, tell me if you think the spiritual and physical world
are integrated (the same thing) or separate entities and why.

It seems to me that Pearl Harbor was tragic, blah blah blah. At least they had the courage to take on a military installation.

America used the A-bomb against completely innocent men, women, children, and animals. We incinerated entire families; people just going about their normal business. We killed many more with radiation poisoning, and condemned future generations of children to be genetically mutated. People will argue, "Well in the end it saved the lives of many GI's!" How can you rationalize this by mass-killing civilians?

Say what you want about kamakazee pilots, and Pearl Harbor, but I think the America's use of the A-bomb was the ultimate low, and those who gave the order to drop it should have been hung for crimes against humanity.

God doesn't need to eat, so he needs no teeth. He doesn't need a mouth to speak - he "speaks" to the hearts and minds of people, according to christians, so he doesn't need a tongue or mouth. He doesn't need internal organs. He doesn't need genitalia as he doesn't have sex or need to go to the toilet. He doesn't need feet as he is omnipotent, so he doesn't need to go anywhere - he's already everywhere. So, really, if we were made in "his" image, we'd be....nothing physcial at all!

"Christians are idiots"
"Atheists are going to hell"
"Everything originated from Paganism"
"Scientology is weird"
"Hey, what about us Jews?"

Then Lion of Judah will copy and paste the entire Old Testament for us all to thumbs down and ignore. Again.

Did I miss anything?

People say that race shouldn't/doesn't matter...that we're all human beings and the same. But yet some (not all, but SOME) of those same people get upset when people of their own race date others of a different race. Does anyone else find that to be very hypocritical?

I've heard people argue against bigotry and racism but then also complain because men or women of their race date men or women of other races. Why is that such an issue if you are against racism?

What are the core beliefs? What is the foundation for the these beliefs?

Does it bother them when we point out how illogical their beliefs are?

Or is it when we shove the history of their religion under their nose so they're faced with it's awful past and lack of historical credibility?

I know there are many christians who actually enjoy a robust debate.

But isn't it a bit of a worry when people aren't happy to discuss their beliefs with those who feel differently to them?

Dosn't it show a bit of insecurity in their commitment to their faith?

What have they got to fear from us other than discovering facts that they may not have been aware of before?

............or do they think Satan sent us here to mock them?

that when I'm sad, so are my friends, even when their miles away??
I call my friend(s) because I am depressed, and they are the same.
Could you be close to your friends on a deeper level some how and not know it?

The same thing happens for many emotions, happy, goofy, somber, depressed, excited..
I have actually called a friend of mine, and said,, ok, what's the matter??
Has anyone ever experienced anything like that?

As soon as one person leaves, it seems human nature that everyone else leaves - taking their cue from the first "leaver". Any suggestions?
