would be head of North America. Africans would have never been in slavery , they would flourish in Africa. Do you think that it is better now with the world or do you think the world would have been better if no one felt they were better than anyone or went already to an land where the in habitants are already fine?
Think about Australia's Aborigenes.....

anyways just food for thought.

This question is only for people that believe in heaven.

Would you rather spend a weekend vacation In heaven itself (and then return to your life here) or receive half a million dollars in your bank account down here on good old earth.

It seems to me people only attack others' beliefs because they're insecure about their own, or perhaps threatened by someone else's beliefs. What do you think?

So why would anyone speak as though they know without doubt, the details of all creation and how it was a spontaneous event for no reason and void of purpose?

"You know like I do what lies behind this religion (Islam), after all this crime carried out against Iranians. lets do one good thing and tell the people what is behind this religion. Lets tell everyone that this religion is neither "martyr generating", nor pro-science nor pro the people. You rightly regard yourself, the supreme leader and your Guardian Council as the elite, and the "martyr generating" nation of Iran are the plebs. Now for the sake of God tell the truth to the people that there is nothing in this religion but stupidity and ignorance, other than silly laws about what is considered clean and what is untouchable, what is allowed and what is not allowed…” - BY Mullah Hadi Ma'ssumi.

what would you do if some comes straight up to you and tells you 'woah, you have a huge nose' ??? I would probably punch that person in his winkie if he's a guy and cut off her hair with scissors if she's a girl. what would you do ? not that someone said it to me, I was just wondering.

...but didn't really seem to know much about him (for example, he/she didn't know about the huge numbers of people Hitler killed/had executed), wouldn't you try to enlighten your friend and show him/her what kind of a person Hitler really was?

Personally, I would. Which is why I can't understand why some (keyword: *some*) Christians complain about how some atheists "attack" Christianity. I'm sorry, but there's just a lot of upsetting stuff in the bible, and in the same way that I wouldn't want a friend of mine to be duped into believing that Hitler was a nice guy, I also wouldn't want a good friend sucked into belief that the God of the bible is simply a kind, loving God.

I find the last sentence of the second paragraph particularly disturbing.

If anyone feels that I've spoken in error, please point this out to me and why you feel this way. I like to think of myself as open-minded.

... there is any sin deep inside of you that you can't repent at all, because it was somehow worth it. Be honest, we don't know your real name anyway.

Jesus said "You must not pray in public, keep your religion to yourself" from the sermon on the mount. Check it out for yourself, it is in black and white in the bible.

(Matthew Chapter 6 versus 5 and 6)

The idea of an omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent and always-absent God seems to defy logic.

What if God was just a really, really intelligent human-like being that knew how to manipulate the great unifying force and control His mind. A technology advanced enough is indistinguishable from miracle or magic. Perhaps we truly don't understand the nature of God. Perhaps there is the illusion of omnipotence?

I got blamed for stuff that never happened. Like for example, I usually go JOG at the park everyday where there is alot of OLD PEOPLE who talks a whole load TRASH, who snitches, and who adds additional stuff to anything they see.

Sometimes I come across my old homeboys and we say "hi' to each other. Talk for a little bit and then we go our own way.

Now rumors all going around that I go to the park FCUK around with MARRIED MENS everyday.

I am really embarrassed. I really don't know what to do. I don't even want to go out any where anymore. I don't even want to show my face anywhere anymore.

Help me.

Taking into consideration that the church always was against veneration of Nature, stating it was de facto a 'false god' and now sudddenly they take a 180° spin. Is the pope honestly changing, something that'd normally take years, if not centuries, or is he just trying to make the church get profit out of the 'new' environmentalism ?
