Society & Culture - 18 October 2007

For my design project, I've decided to deviate from what the sponsor is paying for and come up with something for R&S users. It is a device that slaps the user every time they click the report button. I will work with yahoo in implementing code that requires the user to have this device hooked up to their computer in order to use the R&S section.

This is a hypothetical question (so I don't want to hear "It would NEVER say that!") designed to test how strong your faith is vs. your common sense.

If you would do something your common sense tells you not to do, such as eating dog poo, on faith, why?

If not, then why do other things that are obviously wrong, such as killing people or being a total jerk, on faith?

I think I would have much more respect for an atheist that says that science can not explain everything and that even what science claims to be truth, relies on the belief of unkowns...so it may not be true.

Is Physics an absolute truth? What about the constant Alpha? It may not be an actual constant and may differ in space or time, that kind of puts a big hole in Physics does it not? You must put faith in the constant Alpha for you to claim Physics is a truth.

What about the law of gravity? It doesn't fit for the way galaxies spin, so science makes up the idea of "dark matter". There is no proof of it, they can't even start to describe what it may be. But they have to believe in it, or our understanding of gravity is completly false.

If you can put your faith in science and all the unknowns and "beliefs" that science must follow, then why is there a problem with others doing the same with God?

I went to dinner the other night with a guy I am dating, the service was great and the food was good. The place was a steakhouse. Our bill came to 63.00 and he left 6.00. I was very upset about this and ended up adding 3 extra dollars to make up for it. Was his tip appropriate? I used to be a waitress so I over tip alot.

The reason I'm asking you all this is because, there are fake witches and wiccan pretenders out there(Also called Fluffy) who think the religion is about this, but it's not. For example.

They think that you can gain hollywood like superpowers and turn people into frogs and stuff.

Iam a witch, i can do what I want and I'm much stronger that you guys.

They use Wicca and Witch interchangebly. (I know thats what piss you guys off the most.)

Stuff like that. Along with what people don't understand, what do people THINK they understand?

The Reason I'm asking this is because there are things about wicca that I think I understand but I don't. So when I'm out on my own one day, being in pagan festivals and all that, I don't have to make myself look stupid. I could be a fluffy. Not the realt witch I want to be.

I am not sure if someone had just died or had talked abt dying. Anyway, I remember thinking, when you die, that's it, there is NOTHING. Then I remember having this thought, I am going to die at 54. It seemed so clear.

Do you all think this will really happen? Will I die when I'm 54 and then there will be nothing? Do you believe in premonitions? Is this what that was?

BTW, I'm 47 so this means I have 7 yrs left.

Why is there so much ceremony and procedure in religious gatherings? I thought that when you go to church, you go there to learn about God and Jesus. But what I see is a bunch of dance routines and rigid procedures to turn a page in the Bible. What does all that have to do with God?

I asked this a few minutes ago, the majority of the answers I got were preachy. And I was even told I didn't ask a question. So I'm going to try this again ...

Christians deny the existence of every God except the one they worship. Many pagans don't acknowledge the Christian God or Satan (even though they are often accused of worshipping him). There are many people of all religious walks that don't believe in the Loch Ness Monster, fairies, trolls, etc.

The point is, to believe in one being does not mean you must accept *ALL* beings. So why do many people feel that agnostics are ambivalent towards EVERYTHING?

Believing in a God doesn't automatically mean an acceptance of all things supernatural. So why would agnosticism suggest this?

Who wrote:
"God took close to him in the sky, because He liked it. And he also says, that once Christ gone up with the skies, God questioned while saying:“Jesus! you have say: I am the God and son of God? “Jesus, in his opinion, answered: “Would be miséricordious towards me, Lord! You know that I did not say that and that I do not scorn to be your servant. But the bad men wrote that I had made this statement; they lied in my connection, and they are in the error "

Alright, I have browsed some of the things in this "religion" forum, and see that if you are an atheist or agnostic, people will either say that you are going to hell, that they pity you, or that you are just confused.

I happen to think that though, saying someone will go to hell for different beliefs is obviously offensive, I think that pity is much more insulting.

I am not religious, but I am a good person. I am not going to hell for not believing in a god. I don't need pity, because my attitude is good, and my faith is not non-existent. Just placed in a different form of thinking. I'm not lost or confused, I'm very certain in what I believe.

And, of course, I would not enforce a stereotype that all people of faith are close-minded and happy to get on a ten foot tall moral horse to look down at you from, but the people that say things like that, I don't understand why someone would deserve those comments unless they were an awful person.

Now, I don't want a war.
Your thoughts?
