I am a ninth grader, and I go to a very diverse school. Most of the teachers are Christians, and they get annoyed if a kid uses Jesus's name in vain.
They will ask, sarcastically, "Are you praying?"
One teacher even made a student apologize to Jesus, although the student was an athiest.

Am I the only one who gets sick of this? I think teachers should just ignore it, and accept the fact that we don't all have the same beliefs.

The next time a teacher lectures me for using their lord's name in vain, I think I might just tell them I'm a Wiccan to shut them up.

What do you think of this all?

Today in english I was doing my homework and the two senior class tutors were behind us talking. They were talking kinda loud and I listened in. You expect AP students and tutors to be good kids, but these kids were talking about not telling their parents that they do drugs and stuff like that! Is it just me, or does almost the whole high school population smoke and do drugs? I'm only a freshman, and I'm scared!

I mean, how does nature go from salt water to goo to algae to fish to monkeys to man? Each step is so incrediably difficult. Don't you need the whole cell in single cell animals? They would be just a bunch of ribosomes or something. Even one cell is so complicated, did a bunch of proteins just fall together in the ocean? And then mulitply? I don't get it. Creationism doesn't make the process of life and the universe any smaller or less important, and actually gives goo and monkeys a purpose. Hope I explained myself okay.

Anybody realize that they are 2 different arguments? The theory of evolution does not say that we descended from monkeys, that is just bull. Why are people debating this without knowing what "inteliigent design" means and what is the theory of evolution?

It seems "hell" is the ultimate extension of the human tendency to fear, to live in apprehension of the future, rather that experiencing the present.

Thoughts?

if lust is such a deadly sin, how is man supposed to procreate? i know what you're thinking, "well, it's not lust if you're married." but the simple fact of the matter is most people don't get married unless there's that physical attraction there to begin, and most of the time that attraction is not mutual, thus people don't end up getting married, but the lust is still there? so how are we supposed to know who to marry and ultimately procreate with if there is not that lust there to begin with? do we just marry people who we think we might someday have sexual feelings for?

As we watched with dismay, the events of 9/11, I just want to say that, today, we all remember ,with you, our prayers and thoughts were with you, we wept for you and today we still remember with you. May God Bless America and all who dwell on her soil.

and for those who lost loved ones.-

They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old;

Age shall not weary them of the years condemn them;

At the going down of the sun and in the morning;
"WE WILL REMEMBER THEM"

it just dawned on me that if there is a god, he did indeed make us sinners on purpose. consider the sin of lust. if you take 100 straight men, and a beautiful woman walks by in a thong bikini, half the men will more than likely look. the other half will look away and pray for the dirty thoughts to be out of their head. in any case all 100 of them are pretty much thinking the same thing. so is it really fair to call people sinners if what is in our heart is based on what we were programmed to think by our creator?

...then why has every single one of the nations who truly declared themselves "atheist" been among the most oppressive regimes on the planet?

(For example;

Khmer Rouge Cambodia
Soviet Russia
China
North Korea
etc.)

Is atheism really better?

What's with the rash of pathetically stupid questions tonight?

2007-09-10 17:33:33 · 9 answers · asked by wondermus 5 in Religion & Spirituality

Is there any life after death? Yes, many people answered earlier to this question, I have some doubts (?).
There are 3 things I want to know.
1. I used to see my grandpa in my dreams and he used to tell some thing, I never remember what he said in the next morning. (a) why he is coming in my dream? (b) Why i am not able to rmemebr the communication
2. Many times I used to feel some one is behind me. I used to think thats my grand fahter, just protecting me. Why its?
3. Very long time back I had seen a article mentioning "After the death, the soul will be in and around the area for some time, it is like that, suppose one person got amputed, he will feel that portion of the body still with him, it will take some to come to actual situation." is it correct.

If any one could give any answer, highly appreciated.

Ok, my favorite number is three (3) it always has been, i use the number three in everything, from passwords to video game names (Bobby03) it has been my favorite numbers since i was about 8 years old.
And as few, if any, of you know My Witch Name is Rogue

It has been for a few years now. (BTW that was my old account that had been deleted by Y!A)

Now, I was reading Bucklands complete book of witchcraft and i stumbled on the Craft name section and it said that the most common way to come up with a Witch name is to use Numerology. So i did what buckland said and i came up with this. . .

I was born on March 26 1990
thats 3+2+6+1+9+9+0=30
now you add the total 3+0=3

and now you have to use this chart to add your Craft name to see if it fits with your birth number.
