Most of it seems to be from mean drunks and airheaded hippies. Come on people! Today is Wednesday. Can't you wait until Friday night to get inebriated?

Religion- a cause, principle, or system of beliefs held to with ardor and faith

You hold some sort of beliefs that lead you to not believe in God. There must be a reason for not believing. To say there are no reasons is plain ignorance.

So, to make it clear. My question is not why you believe there is no god, but why is atheism not a "religion?" By this definition it is not as if you need a god. But Richard Dawkins could be your mentor?

is it really neccessary? There are plenty of questions/aspects about the world and the universe that we will never know the answer to. Why can't people just accept that we will never know these things? why do people feel like they have to make up a religion to fill in these gaps?

Wouldn't that sentence be gramatically incorrect?

It would be like saying "He who is isn't."

But if you said "God exists" it would be like saying "My hand is my hand," so it makes sense.

I need some ideas for party favors for my guest at the party I am holding this winter. Everything is being decorated in blue, white and silver. Me and my friends just graduated last year so nothing to young but still fun. Even ideas for packaging would be great. Thanks

Okay, so we all know we are gonna die. If I truly believed there was only this life and nothing after, I think I would be very depressed most of the time.

why is that? why would we need to work out our salvation with fear and trembling - if we indeed were saved and then didn't need to worry bout it anymore?

This is serious. Mormon doctrine states that the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost are not three persons of the Holy Trinity as the Christians teach, but are in fact three separate gods. But does the Book of Mormon support or refute this?
In Alms 11:28-31 "Now Zeezrom said: 'Is there more than one God?' and [Amulek] ansered, 'No.' And Zeezrom said unto him again, 'How knowest thou these things?' And he said:'An angel hath made them known unto me.'"

Are there any key Mormon doctrines contained in the Book of Mormon? (Answer = no). That's rather odd since the Mormons place such an importance about this book as containing the fullness of the everlasting Gospel. Nothing can be found about that God is nothing more than an "exalted man with a body of flesh and bones", nothing can be found of Jesus Christ being the "spirit-brother" of Lucifer, nor that God the Father has a god above him, who has a god above him, ad infinitum. Where do these doctrines come from if they not book of Mormon?

I am one, and I don't understand why people judge one whole race for the ignorant acts of a few. It's my belief, and I choose to believe in the prophet Muhammad, just like you believe Jesus. What is it about our religion that makes you want to hate us? I think it's jus the government that's bringing us down (ahem bush)

I feel like a slave. I feel as if I am enslaved to my daily routine and what I have learned from my teachers. I feel like there is a breakthrough life to live instead of this stuff. Ive been in school in Duke and my parents are very wealthy. I have a rly privelaged life but I still feel this way. Whats up with me ?
