Last year my grandpa passed away, my parents considered hiring a monk to sing prayer because none of us knows sanskrit, the monk asked us for about 50 US dollars per day, 49 days in total...that was ridiculous, monks these days are so greedy, they only have eyes for money, eventually we gave up.

It's mahayana buddhism, I wanna know how much do you pay in other religions?

With the publication of Christopher Hitchens' book "God is not great", Sam Harris's "The End of Religion", there is a claim by some that atheists are being persecuted in the United States. Usually the evidence is that according to polls, a majority of American citizens will not vote for a proclaimed atheist as President.

Now I can accept that some people are still prejudiced against atheists and agnostics. I can even accept that some Christians aren't exactly keen on defending the rights of atheists. On the other hand, I don't know if we can say that atheists are being persecuted.

how he was spit on, mocked, beat very badly, pierced in his side, yet never opened his mouth. he could have called the angels but he didnt. he stayed on the cross! he knew us and yet still love us! even said Father forgive them for they know not what they do. we cant even let go a minor betrayal but he died without deserving death. we are so unworthy of his mercy and he still loves us.

That maybe God created both evolution and creation both for a reason? yes we are going to look like monkeys, we cant have been the only thing God created to look kind of like us, and yes we all come from the same line, God made us all. Maybe the monkey was a practice test.

Why does it go a, b ,c d ,e..... Why not B through Z with the vowels at the end a, e , i, o, u (and sometimes y)?
Was the alphabet made first and the the vowel picked at random?
It may sound like a stupid question but who decided the order and why?
Please answer if you can all these questions thanks for your time.

I had a dream the other night and now I can't get it out of my head. All the little girls were dressed in spring dresses, you know the kind christian girls wear for easter. It looked like they were going to get blessed or something.

Someone asked me what religion I was. I have never really thought about it before today, but I don't really have one. I don't believe in any kind of God or supernatural power or anything like that. So I just told the guy that I am religiousless. Do they have a name for people like myself????
