Do you think God actually created man or did we just make Him up in our minds?

My mother in law's birthday is Saturday and I want to get her a gift basket of goodies. Thus far I have a gift certificate for a spa pedicure and manicure, glamorous wash gift set (for linens), a small box of purchased "homemade" turtle candies.

I need a few more ideas, but nice, but inexpensive. I am puting this all in a nice basket with ribbon.

Say you all ?

Have the true purpose and meaning of Education took a wrong turn somewhere in the past and diverted us onto a wrong path that we are too prideful to admit for a turn-around to the path marked "Right" ?

What say you all; religious and secular teaching professionals?

I used to have this friend that I new for 5 months. His sister set us up and we started talking on the phone a lot. He lives in a different state than I do and he’s 6 yrs. younger than me. When we first started talking on the phone he told me he had “Social Anxiety Disorder” which didn‘t bother me. While being friends with this guy I noticed some signs and thought maybe God was speaking to me. We both had birthdays on the 7th, his sisters birthday was also on the 7th, and the very first e-mail he sent me was on the 7th. Plus my friends hockey jersey number was 98, the year I graduated high school. One time I was talking on the phone with my friend and we were discussing our favorite movies. A few days later his favorite movie was on TV. During our friendship we both thought we were soulmates because we had so much in common. We liked doing the same type of things, our favorite show was “The Wonder Years”, we both enjoyed children, quotes, poems, board games, traveling, we both were Irish, and our families were sort of similar. We both were Catholic too. We also had really good chemistry which he told me over the phone. As our friendship grew he was supposed to come out and visit me but it never happened. Maybe that was because he had “Social Anxiety Disorder”. Him and I drifted apart at the end of the five months because of his personal issues. Just before our friendship ended, he told me had Depression & Bipolar. I believe God was trying to tell me something while I was friends with this guy. What kind of signs do you believe God was trying to tell me? Do you think these signs were good or bad?

I was looking at a wedding thinger and I noticed that the groom's dad was deceased. It got me thinking, why do they call deceased "late". Just curious.

... would come to be with you "soon" but refused to tell you exactly when, and who threatened to torture you if you ever strayed, but continued to insist they loved you more than anyone else ever could?

Would you consider that person worthy of having a "personal relationship" with you?

And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive? ... Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves. -- Numbers 31:15-18

How does this bible verse make you feel as a Christian woman? Or even as a Christian man? Why would this ever be considered okay?

The Lord, God, told us that we all can know Him without men having to teach us. Do you think that's the real problem with religions and religious people not understanding that ?

God will teach and reveal to whom He will revealed; and until then, men searches, talk and debate in vain concerning Him

What say you all ?

In Iraq the vast majority of the murderous rampage is being conducted by islamofascist terrorists who are murdering other muslims, and American troops are trying to stop the murders.
What would liberals do to stop the murders?

I've never been to jail, but I know plenty of people who have. And it didn't seem to rehabilitate or deter most of them from committing more crimes and ending up back in jail.

Just because someone is more religious than another or part of your religion does that make them a "better" person than anyone else?

Why do many people say that religious people and people of their religions are better people and non religious and people of different faiths are wrong?

Why can they not accpet that they just have different beliefs?

Why does one need religion to come up with morals and values?

Can you not learn those just by living life and interacting with others and forming your own opinions or following what you want?

Why do many people feel that people need religion to tell them these things and that no one can learn moral and values on their own?

I am a religious person but I am wondering what do people say things like "You are evil because you are not Christian" (just an example)

I grew up in Roman Catholocism, but have, within the past year, realized that I do not agree with the idea of organized religion. I am very spiritual, but I do not go to church, follow religious laws/commandments, etc. However, I am signed up for my weekly youth group. I enjoy being with my friends, and I like discussing my viewpoints. However, I do not want to go against my own morals and beliefs. Would I be completely contradicting myself by attending?
