She's not the brightest bulb in the box, and she's had some awfully bad examples to follow and worse advice.

Somebody's taking serious advantage of a person who is not armed for a battle of wits.

Lest you wonder, it's in senior citizens because seniors are the most likely to view this situation dispassionately.

Atheists, what made you come to that conclusion?

Someone on my last question said that R&S is not the best place for someone with a weak relationship with Christ, or someone that is new to the faith.

Why or why not?

A girl I know, she is a student about 20, tells me that she has landed a part time job at a club, chucking out drunks! I don't think she is kidding. Is this a proper job for a lady of refinement? I can't imagine any of Jane Austen's characters doing it!

I'm writing a poem against bull fighting from the bulls perspective, but I'd like to know a bit more about what the vision of the bull is like.

Can they see in colour, black and white? Well, not well? How do most of them react to the matadors?

Thanks!!

Something like...... Y!A R&S for example.

Frankly.... this place is slowly but surely starting to bore me. I might have to take a break for a few months soon.... not that I expect anyone to care or even notice. The monotony is just starting to wear a bit thin.... and even the satirical questions at the expense of the..... less intelligent members... are starting to get repetitive.

It was a roomful of chain-smoking Catholic perverts who decided what should be included in the Bible and what shouldn't.

And how come we never hear a peep out of Protestants?

I imagine that they include:

*the gay people not to suffer discrimination in employment, housing, and public accommodation;

*same-sex marriage;

*a woman's right to choose to remain pregnant or not;

*the rights of people not to have their taxes support religion.

However, I could be wrong, and you may have other rights that you oppose.

So which Human Rights do you oppose based on religious grounds?

Try to put aside the rational argumentation for the existence of G*d on this one. I'm curious here about the human emotions.

It occurred to me that the vast majority of atheists were born and raised as believers, including such prominent ones like Dawkins who used to pray to angels, Diagoras the very first famous atheist or even Jean-Paul Sartre who claimed he was an atheist since he was 12. They all had a well-developed idea what god is, so they definitely were not a "carte blanche" when they became atheists.

This transition from a believer to a non-believer almost always is an angry reaction against authority, which of course is an emotion. The rationale that Gawd doesn't exist (even though perfectly logical) seems to be almost an afterthought which serves mainly to further cement their disbelief.

A true atheist, in my opinion, would be someone who has absolutely NO interest in god or religion and would actualy do his best to avoid any such discussion.

When my best friend died in January I clung to God like I had never clung to God before. I honestly felt I had that "God-shaped" vacuum in my heart that you speak of. My attitude changed so much that my friends and family immediately noticed, and were rather surprised to hear me talking about God in such a worshipful way.


When I started on R&S, it was to find answers to some of my questions about Christianity so that I might reinforce my belief.

Instead, I found so many contradictions that it is impossible for me to continue to believe.

I really wanted to be a believer.
I am not a believer anymore.

And, to beat it all, I lead a generally happy life.

I really think, looking back, that I felt "God's presence" because I was so distraught over Chelsa dying that I just wanted something, anything to get me through it. Religion worked as a drug for me during that trying time in my life.

Your thoughts?

mine does it and complain too. he said i shouldnt ask him to do it. he drives and i dont. his working time is flexible coz he's in the insurance business. whereas i am confined at my workplace. my point of view is that since he can drive to just about anywhere to meet a client, he should be able to help me run an errand. for e.g. buy a box of pies. he said i should help him run errands too but i dont. pls help end his whiny complaints. lol

If you don't believe human "Love" is not a spiritual gift from our creator...then is this what you believe?

The brain has 6 basic funtions: Creative Visual, Emotional, Executive planning, Language, Memory, Social.

Love would then be reduced to this "scientific" fact

Love is: The transport of cell components, vesicles & mitochondria from the cell body to the axon...this flow is driven by kinesins also moving along many micotubules into the cytoplasm that's within myelin sheath. The cell bosies of the sensory neurons would lead to the spinal cord and they of course are located in clusters or in layman terms the ganglia. The human brain contains 100 billion interneurons all working perfectly with a measured speed and dircetion for no apparent reason.

The next time you look into a child eyes or hold the one you "Love" keep that in mind............it's nothing but a chemical reaction...they same one that runs through your dog.


or could it be something different?
