Exactly what logical scientific evidence is there that God doesn't exist? Don't just say, "The same reason the Tooth Fairy doesn't exist" I would like to know exactly what evidence is there. Please no links, just from your own words.

"E" recently asked a question about salvation. Many people answered saying that those who couldn't make decisions like children and the mentally ill would nevertheless get into heaven. But my Catholic friends tell me this is wrong, that unless you are baptized, you're condemned to limbo as a child or to hell if you can make a decision. What does your religion tell you?

Hello, I'm a Nihilistic Atheist that has carried around with him a question ever since he could remember.

I was first raised as a Christian by my family (I live in the USA, not that it has anything to do with it) and now have broken away from that particular religion. One day I decided to look around myself without using any sort of aid, no Bible, no Kuran, or any other scripture that governs life. What I saw was the real world, as it is meant to be seen.

How do you as a person justify your religion? I'm mainly directing this question toward the countless Christians of the world, but I'm curious about others as well.

The answer I want is not that "because I wish to serve God" or "it brings me happiness" or even "because I want to go to Heaven".

I am wondering why you believe you should lead your life by what a book says and not even bother to question it. And furthermore, I would like to state that I believe Hell is merely Christian tool to gain followers, dating back many years.

The first kind are the ones that bend the fact around the faith. Christianity is and example, either they try to refute science or bend it to fit the bible.

The second kind is one that bends the faith around the fact. Buddhism is an example, the Dalai Lama says that if Buddhism and science conflict, go with science.

This is one thing i do not understand about homosexuals and that is they claim that they want to be different and they say they don't want to be like heterosexuals and they even openly despise heterosexuals but at the same time they copy heterosexuals.

Why else do the majority of homosexual couples have one person who is masculine and the other person who is feminine.

In the majority of male homosexual couples there is one man who is masculine and one man who is feminine and in the majority of female homosexual couples there is one woman who is masculine and one woman who is feminine.

That is very bizzare and ironic, if homosexual don't want to be like heterosexuals they would not copy heterosexuals and every male homosexual couple would have two masculine men and every female homosexual couple would have two feminine women.

It seems to me that deep down inside most homosexuals really do want to be heterosexuals and the ones who impersonate the opposite sex want to be that

There are seven national religious organizations in China. They are the Buddhist Association of China, China Taoist Association, Islamic Association of China, Patriotic Association of the Catholic Church in China, Chinese Catholic Bishops College, the Three-Self Patriotic Movement Committee of the Protestant Churches of China and the China Christian Council. All the religious organizations elect leaders and leading bodies according to their own articles of association.

Religious Believers Three Times Higher than Estimate

The number of Chinese people who describe themselves as being religious is a remarkable three times higher than the official estimate. This came to light in the country's first major survey of religious beliefs.

Despite what so many believe, religious freedom is protected in China by law.

Yesterday I was walking down 25th and parish when all of a sudden the clouds part and I am beamed aboard a space ship I think. I'm tied down on this table scared as I have ever been. Then in walks a space creature. Now I am shaking, then I notice it has a mullet. I'm like "um if you want to earn respect you gotta cut that hair you just lost the effect." It tells me it is trying to blend in to humanity. I told it that a mullet isn't the right way to go about it. Then It shoots me with some ray gun now I have a mullet! Is this an ok haircut for something from outerspace?

~* I ask not that you share what you are not comfortable,only that which you do*~

Would you share a favorite spell with me, for my personal use from you, my friends?

I feel that you are all a part of my journey as a solitary isolated sister.

And to have something from all of you would indeed be precious to me....

I am 28 y.o., from India and I would like to become a diplomat. I've completed my 12th grade in the year 1998 and was in a medical school and discontinued it as i'm not interested in it. I realize that I like the subject of foreign affairs and hence would like to be a diplomat. So please tell me if i could have an UG in international studies in India, if so where in India. Thanks.

when a stranger or someone you meet/talk the first time uses words of endearment to you, especially if it's the opposite sex? Instant messages like, "Hey, babe? How are you?".

muslims... why not self defence lessons instead of burkas?


And if other guys think you are hot and you are married... well let it go to your head that you are hot and hubby better appreciate it. Likewise Hubbie should be thinking...

I have the fit bird nananna na You can look but I can touch (and then some) na nanan na guys.


Plus in a proper realtionship you should be best mates who hurt to be apart and happy as anything to be together so who cares abot others.


but with a face you have a identity, you are a person with a name different to others.


in a burka/najab you are nothing. not human and not differente to all the others with no face.


Also why can guys have a face and western clothes and a name and an identity
