I am a buddhist American and I feel it is just as important to help democracy and freedom in Myanmar as it is in Iraq.

How can we help?

Rarely do I see people debating Pauls meaning on something, or seeking the original Greek on a verse, or comparing the Bible and the Koran about Abraham, even discussing similarities of Buddhists Nirvana to a Muslim's heaven, etc. Why are we not discussing religion? But instead merely attacking the fact people have other beliefs that are different from our own? Please really think about this question. Gods peace to all.

Although - if you look back over the last week, I guess the poor wee laddies would not be wrong in backing off in fear of entering a cat house!

They don't understand that is how girlies play - do they?

Lets all be nice and try and lure some more in - but don't any of us tell WIDER WOMAN about the plan or she will be in sorting the men from the boys before we can fix our padding!

And please don't tell McTeacake or he'll shoot them all at the gate as they try to get in!

My husband is from Bangladesh so I would prefer to learn Bangladeshi Bengali. I know that Indian Bengali is too proper for bangaldesh....plus if anyone knows chittagonian that would be even better as all my IN Laws live in Chittagong. I would love to be able to pass this language on to my sons....AND FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ASK WHY DOESN'T MY HUSBAND JUST TEACT ME...he's way to busy working full time and then running a business from home. I work from home as well so I thought it would be easier just to have a tutor...I know the basics as I was in Bangladesh for 3 months from feb2007-may2007. Thank you again if you can help!!!!

A lot of people say that when we see spirits it is the devil impersonating the person who we think we see. A lot of people see spirits when they don't expect to. ie not in a situation like a seance. How do they know it is the devil and not our loved ones. I believe it is our loved ones we see. Also how can a lot of folk who believe in God dispute the fact that we see soirits?

If it was only meant for theists, surely Yahoo would have put a notice somewhere. It's like some people hate that fact that some people have different views on religion.

Just because I don't believe in a God, does that mean that I can't be intrested in religion, that I know nothing about religion or that I can't have a view on religion?

Also, imagine how much hassle we are saving the fundies in their propaganda spreading duties. This way they can post all of their "Jesus loves you, will you accept his love, or will you burn in hell?" questions in one section, saving lots of time.

My sister and I have no preference wether we have one or two. Is it weird if we only have one?

There are some celibate religions out there but they dont forbid getting drunk.

There are some people who do not drink but they have fornicated at least once in their life.

Overall would you say Muslims have the largest number of people who have both NEVER fornicated nor ever become drunk ?

These are the FRUITS that you will know them by........

For Blacks the Arabs and European did horrible things to our ancestors, and actually they are still prejudiced, so why would you co-op their religion?

And Native Americans..after what Europeans did to your country, why?

Latinos think they are white, so I won't even question them.

I'm sure I'm going to hear about a "merciful god."

People of African descent, Oludomare, Obatala, Oshun and Yemaya are merciful. So if you are going to believe in a diety, why would you not believe in one of your ancestors?
