Think about it. Religion is just a concept that is instilled in people's minds. A long time ago, people summed up our existence by saying there is a god and satan, and a heaven and hell. That doesn't mean its true. Just like how pluto was considered a planet for a long time, and everyone believed it, but now its not. Anyway, if the concept of religion was never introduced into your life, do you think you would still be the same person you are today? Would you still live a normal life, or would you feel like you are missing a part of yourself? I'm sure most of you religious people would be completely fine, but you wouldn't want to admit it.

We have been harassed in a variety of ways by a neighbor for the past 6 years. This neighbor is a city employee. One of his things he likes to do is put up a NO TRESPASSING sign (and move it to various locations along our property line) with an American flag duct taped to it up to our fence facing only our yard, My husband is from Vietnam. How would you take this? What would you do? We find this very offensive.

It's really unprofessional behaviour but if you call anyone then they always act as if you're inferior. Everything is just so rhetorical in conversation. And they seem to cut you off before you do.

How can I learn to be just as nasty as everyone else who is mean on the phone?

As a child, I remember all the ladies, on Sunday afternoons, putting on aprons. I thought nothing of this as they would come home from church, slip into an apron and start dinner.

Now, as an adult, I do not own an apron! lol Do you recall the usage of aprons being common?

Since god created all of us and our biological makeup, how can you say that a gay person is that way by choice?

white people control the worlds resources shouldn't they treat their brothers as they treat themselves as Jesus has instructed? shouldn't every american have healthcare and an equal opportunity at gainful employment or education?
western chritianity would be better labeled as demonology.

I'll go first. Mine did not. In fact, when I was old enough to stay home alone (around 8?), church attendance was optional.

In college I told them I rejected religion generally, and there was no adverse reaction.

You?

I mean as not the Mother of "God the Father" (she can't be), but the mother of "God the Son" (Jesus). And isn't the Son still God? He is, according to the bible.

So do you call her or agree that she is Mother of "God The Son"? NOT THE FATHER.

I'm not a Protestant or a Catholic.

i am getting married soon.however i have a coworker who is copying my wedding.ive never shared much of my personal life to those at work except w/ a couple friends i work w/ but even if we tlaked about personal life it was when we were alone. after i got engaged i reveiled a lil more.the older women brought in old photos and there were discussions of things that go wrong and things that go right etc etc. the things that i ended up reveiling during these conversations were picked up and copied by a man a work with. he bought his fiance the exact rings i have, took r wedding colors, even r wedding date!! when he found out my fiance was a computer programmer he told me he was going to school for programming. i congratulated him. a few wks later i asked how his classes were going (it was only him and I) and he claimed he never told me that and i was lying. i have since not reveiled anything. but my question is since were getting married the same day how can i save coworkers the awkwardness

im only 15 but im disgusted at how some teens are really disrespectful to their elders, especially. like when i see kids talking back to teachers, and sometimes their parents even back them up!! also, its terrible when children scream at their parents when they dont get what they want ((a great example is the tv show super sweet sixteen)). i know 50 years ago this would have been totally unacceptable.

why is this happening and has anyone else noticed this?
