the no prayer in schools issue? It is merely a separation of church and state, disallowing and authority figure within the school - principal, teachers, superintendent, school counselor - any of the staff - from leading a public prayer that the entire school is required to participate in. It keeps teachers - the ultimate authority to some kids - from using their religion as a tool and a weapon against students.

NOWHERE in that law does it say that you as a student, a teacher, an administrator or any school employee is NOT allowed to pray while on school premises. People pray in school all the time - teachers pray the kids will behave, students pray they will pass the test, both offer prayer when sitting down at their lunch. No problem with that. No one will throw a fit or kick you out for doing that.

Why is this law so twisted and misunderstood?

Please read the law before you comment - http://www.ed.gov/Speeches/04-1995/prayer.html

1 Samuel 28:14

Honestly, I've always wanted to change the world one person at a time. So I really want to sponsor a child in the CCF which actually would excite me! However, my mom wouldn't approve of a new, extended, member of our family. She doesn't think it would be in my best interest (as I want to go to college to become a surgeon and I'm exceptional in school).

I'm very deep and I have the HUGEST heart (which is often a bad trait because of my disadvantage to go far in life...I let someone else go before me and as I know it, to be successful, you have to be demanding and strong. I don't even swear:-), never made out and I'm not even ugly...I've had many opportunities to do so but never did.

Anyways, why must I be constantly held back by my mom. I love her but sometimes I just feel like I need to take a stand for myself. I mean there are times when she tells me stuff and I just say I'm not dumb and I know already. She treats me like a baby in a way.

I just want to help a kid

Paul teaches that there are many spiritual gifts, and that they are all important. He teaches that charity is more important than any other gift or quality. He teaches that spiritual gifts should be used for the benefit of all.

Please think deep about this, and suggest your reasons why charity is the most important gift. Compared to what?

Thank you for any thoughts you can share!

shouldn't we then have to fertilize all egg that women ever produce (e.g. through artificial insemination)? By NOT having sex everyday, aren't we depriving those beautiful ova from being fertilized and thus letting them DIE? If we outlaw birth control, don't we then have to make sure that women have as many kids as possible?

Osama Bin Laden wants America to convert to Islam. Funny how he and his psychopathic followers have yet to demonstrate anything remotely similar to Islam. What is he talking about and does he even take himself seriously? I personally don't believe he cares one bit about Islam and doubt he considers himself a Muslim. What do you think?

Do you think the "old" rules apply to today's world? Today we have internet and globalization and it could be considered a faster world. Do you think all this has been done before ages ago or today is really a different world?

I work in an office with an open floor plan. My desk neighbor praises Jesus in almost every sentence. While my belief is not his, I don't mind it...until he starts proselytizing. I've explained to him that work is not the appropriate place to discuss religion and please stop. That works for a while until the next day when he starts over. I think he's decided to "save" me or something, but I think it's just rude. I've set my boundaries but he keeps stepping beyond those boundaries in the name of "Jesus!" When he's not proselytizing, we get along fine. He's a nice guy. But when he gets on a roll, he's the Holy Roller! Without reporting him to HR, how can I get the guy to stop?

PS - Please don't answer to tell me I'll be burning in hell. Serious answers only, please!

You know as well as I know that no human has the ability to change the physical properties of matter.
If your god magically transformed it, then how come no-one saw any molecules of water changing???
Isn't it interesting that no-one saw it change.
That means jesus was a magic man.
He played a trick on you Christians.
If this miracle supposedly took place than the air in the room would have smelled differently.
Jesus would have used the air to change it.
Did anybody smell anything differently???
Of course not.
See, through logic and reason, we can conclude that it never happened.
Stay tuned for lesson 8 in atheism conquers Christianity
