...wouldn't they leave him alone? Do you think that too many prayers would be a burden to him? I love this quote by George Carlin:

"I've often thought people treat God rather rudely, don't you? Asking trillions and trillions of prayers every day. Asking and pleading and begging for favors. Do this, gimme that, I need a new car, I want a better job. And most of this praying takes place on Sunday His day off. It's not nice. And it's no way to treat a friend." George Carlin

I regret to inform you, that us saying, "There is no God," is much like the Christians we are going againsts, "God did it." Don't you think? We should revise it, or at least use it sparingly...use it only as our last resort. We should be able to give out theistic answers to those questions, (Such as how people do in debates...use the other parties stance against them.) I do that...maybe we should all do it? I'm not tryin' to change the rest of you guys...just saying...we're almost starting to sound like thesits...and that's disturbing in and out of itself...we're attributing every religious question with, "God does not exist," just like how all the Christians are saying, "God did it," to scientific questions....please...stop...I beg you before you turn into the ones you're goin' up against!!!

Or are we already there?

and please be logical here... like just don't say religion is dumb. Being one thing because the other is what you consider wrong is not a valid reason for being the first thing

I've heard about how the benefits of meditation, but I'm not sure where to start. Does anyone have a way that way that works well for them?

It speaks about The "virgin" mary, jesus and some other religiousy stuff,
this is not meant to be offensive.
I am agnostic, so generally do not believe in god or jesus or any of that stuff, please do not try to convert me. I am just curious.
Also, if anybody has seen the musical "Jesus Christ Superstar", could they tell me their religious opinion. I hear that it is controversial because it claims that Judas went to heaven and that jesus told him to betray him.
Is this true?
DaVinci Code or Jesus Christ Superstar.
Opinions?

Because everyone of His listeners believed in God. Today people are mislead. Someone said, "the devils biggest deception was to tell the world that he did not exist."

you haven't mastered your dance skills
you haven't really gotten an interesting job
haven't gotten into the best shape

you want to be judged when you are ready, but your not ready and people are judging you.

i don't feel perfect yet. i don't feel ready to be judged. and i'm paranoid about how i am being judged.

If anyone has manmade beliefs it would be that of the Protestant churches. Being they removed 7 books from the bible, use a bible that was authorized by King James, and not from God or the Holy Spirit,, they do not believe that they are COMMANDED to be baptized, they do not partake of the Eucharist as Jesus instructed, and they do not partake of the 7 sacraments given to us by Jesus Christ Himself. Do you agree?

The King james bible is said to have had 400 text revisions 26 years of the release date of 1611. Someone also told me that the book of Mormon has had almost 4000 revisions in less than 200 years. Why is this so?

You only have to read some of the questions on here to see the quality of spelling and grammar of some of the young people using this site.

I wonder if it is 'txtin' that is causing this or a drop in education standards since I left school 15 years ago.

On a personal level, I text quite a lot myself and sometimes find my first instinct is to write the txt abbreviation instead of the proper spelling but I always make sure I don't go for the easy option.

Also I wonder if this phenomenon will eventually lead to the evolution of the written English language into something more phonetic, which is really what 'txt speak' is I suppose.

Opinions please
