When your quest in life is to secure a seat in heaven and all your actions in this life are driven by the desire to live forever with God, would it be fair to say you are a narcissist?

No matter what you or anyone says, someone who dies a virgin is STILL gonna wanna do it even after they die and are in heaven. There are so many sexy women in this world and the guy will still want to do this even after he dies, virgin or not.


For example, what about all those kids who went straight to Vietman ot Iraq just out of high school and died in combat before they had the chance to make out with a girl?

Now I have the attention of 95% of the people in this forum:

Is there a limit to how ignorant a religious person can be? Case in point:

I've never been one to think that I'm amazingly cool or anything (sorry, that was a lie), but I'm just curious.

All thoughts and comments are appreciated, even those that don't admit they wish they were me.

Who is better?
A religious man who always went to church/mosque/synagogue
Never did anything wrong but nothing really good
Or an atheist who don’t believe in god but dedicated his life to helping others, people less fortunate then him, and in the conclusion of thing did more good to the world then the religious man. But he did not bow before any god, and was free.

Because all the religious people I know support war, care mostly for their own fortune, carry guns, do not care for the environment, recycling and pollution. Are against any way that the state could help for less fortunate (free medical care for all, tax’s that discriminate in favor of the poor incomes)

And all the people that care and help and fight ageist war, occupation, exploitation, chauvinism, pollution are atheists.

A friend of ours always borrows things from use but she never takes care of them and always returns out borrowed items damaged. To make a long story short I want to show her some courtesy about borrowing things from people. Thanks

Yesterday was my daughter’s birthday, then one who died four years ago. We went to the cemetery to put up a new wind chime as a birthday present. When we got there we noticed that there were bright bits of plastic and ribbons every where and when we got to my daughters grave, we saw that all of her fake flowers, statues, trinkets and even metal flowers were mowed down….mowed! Not just hers but from every grave from that line. I pulled plaques that were put up on a Sheppard’s poll from in the dirt. I hope they busted their lawn mower blades on those metal flowers.

see this link for a letter from a non-religious man seeking advice about his religious child's belief he's going to hell.

Of course the difference in belief could be anything.. just wondering how parents handle it when their child is being raised differently than they believe? (For instance, in divorced families, etc... when parents are different religions, etc.)

If we were made in his image, I'd have to assume yes.

But If He had Free will, he could have chosen differently
If anything could happen that is not his will, he's not perfect, so I'd assume no.

But because He's perfect, I'd assume he has all qualities, so I'd assume yes.

But If He did have it, he could refuse to give Salvation to someone who asked, which is something (I'm told) is not of "His nature," so that leaves me to believe no.

Thoughts? How is it that something perfect can be said to have a Will (Free or not) at all? Doesn't having a will imply that there is something outside it's power for it to affect, thus negating it's perfection by limiting it (This is of God, this is not, therefor God is limited in some small way, and is not perfect)?

I have heard many people saying Italian, but I never find them similar at all, on the other hand English has thousands of exactly similar words, similar spellings and pronounciation - without the "o/a" endings of Italian.

generally speaking France and England are both in north western Europe, very closely related historically, climatically and geographically - contrary to Italy which is a mediterranean warm nation.

This guy at my office brings his wife to work with him 3 days a week. She's got some disease that makes her like a 3 year old. She sits in his office and colors in coloring books and stuff. Anyway, the problem is she messes the bathroom up something horrid. She goes all the time (guess it's her medicine?) and leaves crap on the toilet seat and in the floor. We talked to our boss once and he said he would deal with it but then we asked him not because we don't want to hurt this guy's feelings. She has threatened suicide when left at a caregiver's while he works so he has to bring her. It's so disgusting and this is the only bathroom we have. What would you do?

An office worker at Manchester airport(England) was suspended for 3days after a Muslim colleague complained that he had placed a picture of Jesus in the staff room.
The Muslim worker said that the action of his colleague was `highly provocative`
The suspended worker pleaded that he meant no harm to anyone and apologised for his actions and maintained that if the Muslim worker had informed him of his annoyance he would have removed the image.
Now the interesting fact is that not one Atheist or Protestant worker complained at all to British Airways except a Muslim.
