Question for sane people: In real life, how do you deal with idiots who always seem to complain. or blame others, or nit-pick your mistakes?

People say, slavery happened a long tiime ago, they say all the slaves are dead, They worry about people claiming to be black being able to benefit from any type of reparations.
These people in large live in America. They are the ones whose families have benefited from the institution of slavery and the after effects.
What they don't understand is nothing can replace what was taken from the African American.
They lost their language
Their culture
Their religion
Their family history
They were cut off at the root for not 5 or 10 years but hundreds of years.
Generations have came and went with nothing to pass on to the next.
Most people know their family background, What country they are from and their nationality.
They have cultural music, dance, food, traditions, clothes and customs handed down for generations.
Its not about the money its about the acknowledgement of a horrible wrong done to a helpless people.
Would it be fair for African Americans to live tax free?

i just had to ask, why the repetetive questions?

Don't you think many atheists are familiar with the bible, perhaps even know it better than some Xians?

We know your stories, and we see flaws in them..

Why throw advanced science questions back at us? And in the R&S section no less, science questions belong in the science section, god questions belong in the R&S section...

"Any woman who prays with her head unveiled dishonors her head. It is the same as if her head were shaven, for if a woman will not veil herself then she should cut off her hair. But if it is disgraceful for a woman to be shorn or shaven , let her wear a veil. (1 Corenthians 11 :5).

Whosoever looketh upon a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already. If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.
(MATT 5:28-29).

TIT002:005 - To be discreet, chaste, keepers at HOME, good, OBEDIENT to their HUSBANDS...

1PE 3:001 - Likewise, ye wives, be in SUBJECTION to your own HUSBANDS. -------

Women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in SUBMISSION, as the Law says. -- 1 Corinthians 14:34


Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach [didaskein], nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression." (1 Timothy 2:11-12)

Ecclesiastes 7:26 KJV: And I find more bitter than death the woman, whose heart is snares and nets, and her hands as bands: whoso pleaseth God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be taken by her but she will catch whoever continues to sin. (GOD'S WORD®)

"I permit no woman to teach or have authority over men".

what's with all these questions asking atheists about the origins of life, and the big bang and everything else that science has been able to explain throughout the ages? i'm an atheist, not a biologist, or a chemist, or an astrophysicist. i'm just an atheist. and i'm not atheist because science has disproved god. i'm an atheist because no religion has been able to prove a god exists. it's not faith. it's just being rational.

What did Jesus mean when He said on the cross "IT IS FINISHED"

Why are some churches teaching we still need to Finish it ourselves by works, sacraments and baptisms?

In the book of Revelations in the Bible, it says that there will be a 1000-year reign of satan before Christ returns. Things are pretty bad now, what with so-called "global warming", poverty and impending scarceness of fossil fuels and natural resources. Are we in the Age of the Devil? Or does such a thing even exist?

Great truth: law was a "great terror"-ist: Deut 34:12
Greater truth: religious freedom is better, for some.
Greatest truth: grace is sufficient (no law required).

Pst: only the greatest of three things NEVER fails.
Pst: George's Bush League 'rule of law' often fails.
Pst: GWB's goal is to be Safe<--Safer<---Safest.
GWB's goals is to be Great<--Greater<---Greatest.
