I remember it clearly. The buildings fall one by one. People thinking that the the first plane was just confused and lost. I did not sleep for days and days.
Sorry to those that lost families and friends and coworkers. We have them in our hearts!!!

I realize now, no matter how successful or rich I am, in this world, I am just biding my time until I die. How I spend my time is entirely up to me, whatever I have left.

It's a jungle out there, and truly no one really ever leads a life that is "wrong".

What's your take?

I want to hear from all different faiths (that even includes atheists) for this question? One other question, do you believe in fate or destiny? Thanks for answering!

It seems so silly. Please help me understand. We laugh at Greek mythology for once believing in Gods, yet we do the same thing.

Not sure if anyone here has taken much astronomy but space is big. Beyond comprehension big. The earth is a completely incosequential spec in a nowhere galaxy.

Why did god need to create more stars than there are grains of sand on earth? Why would he need other planets at all for that matter? Doesn't it seem like overkill to create all of this for his "chosen people"?


Please no god works in mysterious ways thoughtless answers. Do you have any rational suggestions?

You say that Jesus isn't the son of God, but a profit. Well, if he was a profit how come he would lie and say he was the son of God?!? I mean, if he really were a good profit than I don't think he would lie. If he did lie than wouldn't that make him a low-down lier, how could he be just a 'good man' without being either the son of God, or a lier?

But with that 'talent' they really were giving support and hope to others - what do you do?

Out them and take away the hope of some very sad people - or keep it to yourself and let them carry on.

No money is changing hands.

I'm interested in your initial reason for becoming an atheist or christian but you can say why you stayed christians/atheists if you wish. Just curious here.

...at all in The Bible...?

What people said, what they said happened, and what those happenings mean is all...

"Interpretive Assumptions..."

I'm going by the definition of the words "Fact" and "Verifiable" as put forth in the English Dictionary...

Why do so many people use the word "fact" when what they're really saying is "assumption" and "belief" and "faith?"

There's a very big difference in the meanings, I would appreciate if people would start using the appropriate words for the appropriate points they're trying to make...

Wouldn't that strengthen their viewpoint if they were more accurate in their choice of words...?

It's morning 9:30 and I don't want to go to work. I don't feel so great. Do I need to call or tell someone?

If I'm not there people will just think it's a 'free day' or that I'm busy with something. Or no-one will notice.

im christian. i love jesus. i know jesus died on the christ for my sins. i know it!

im a lesbian. i love my girlfriend.

i need to know why the bible says its wrong. WHY?!?!?!? is it procreation??? is that it??? b/c any straight married couple that chooses not to have children is not procreating (assuming they are fully capable of procreating). so doesnt that mean they are just as "bad" as homosexuals???

why does a woman have to be w/ a man?!??!?! why???? why??? i dont understand and God knows i want to!

God forbid Adam and Eve to taste the Fruit of Knowledge. The Devil urged them. Dose this imply, God is against Knowledge. God doesnot want us to be wise/educated?

There are no mention of His parables or of "turning the other cheek" in preference to "eye for an eye".How does one 'corrupt' teachings that are harder to observe? eg ' love your neighbor pray for those who persecute you'

why isn't the name Muhammad mentioned in any islamic or pre-islamic writings prior to the arrival of the prophet Muhammad, even in muslim holy books such as the quran and the ahadith books don't mention this name at all.
i think as suspected for a long time that muhammad was not native to the area despite muslims claims that he hails from the arab tribe of quraish.
PLEASE MUSLIMS, I BEG YOU MOST HUMBLY TO GIVE A SCHOLARLY ANSWER WITH REFFERENCES.
despite my repeated posting of this question over the last few months no muslim has given a satisfactory answer. i as an ex-muslim have read the quran and hadith namely BUKHARI and can say with authority that this name was not mentioned anywhere in the above books. i know this qustion may touch some raw muslim nerves and therefor i'm open to all abuse and ridicule. i'm used to it by now since becoming an apostate. by the way i do have thick skin so go and hit that abuse button and have me banned again.
