Society & Culture - 1 November 2007

I'm not a huge fan of Christmas to begin with, and usually I'm sick and tired by all the Christmas decorations and Christmas music by about the first week of December at the latest.

I don't do any decorating at home, and I don't let my employees put up the decorations at work until after Thanksgiving - and I won't put on the Christmas music until after Thanksgiving.

"Fight in the cause of Allah those who fight you but do not transgress limits; for Allah loveth not transgressors. (190) And slay them wherever ye catch them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out; for tumult and oppression are worse than slaughter; but fight them not at the Sacred Mosque, unless they (first) fight you there; but if they fight you slay them. Such is the reward of those who suppress faith. (191) But if they cease, Allah is Oft-Forgiving Most Merciful. (192) And fight them on until there is no more tumult or oppression and there prevail justice and faith in Allah; but if they cease let there be no hostility except to those who practise oppression. (193)"

Kindly explain what would be your intepretation.

I get the feeling that many Christians are voicing their disapproval of people questioning or attacking their religion.

I wonder if Muslims, Hindus, Jews, Deists, etc feel the same way?

Or do any atheists wish that Christians would get their own Answers section also, so they wouldn't keep insulting atheism and other religions?

I personally like it just the way it is. I like to answer criticism, I may not always be right, but I'm honest, and like to examine my facts if questioned.

It was amended in May of this year to allow the president of the US in the case of a declared National emergency (presidential call) including but not limited to Katrina like event, terrorism, etc. that all executive levels of the US will be ran by him and his apointees Congress gets to take a hike, literally. He can even call off a presidential election. I am just learning about this and dont want to jump to a ton of conclusions, however, with Bush itching for some sort of national emergency and with the civil unrest that will emerge when the North American Union comes to fruition, wouldnt it make sense he would place himself as dictator of america if he has carte blanche to do so? What are your thoughts? Any more info about this directive?

What does the Bible say about the sorrow in hell? Will I be able to stop the hurt according to God?

One would assume Religious people, at least here, would give me the same goody-two-shoes response, soooo... without further adieu.

You are in a room. It is dark, but not pitch black. There are two doors.The door on the Right leads to doing the right thing. there is no reward for this, only the satisfation of doing the right thing. The door on the left however, leads to the fufillment of greed. Your inner desires will be fufilled, and immense money and power will be yours. By choosing this door, MANY people will die, though not people you care about.

Now, In all honesty, which door would you choose.

You Know, I feel Like I've got everyone watching... from my freinds, neighbors, and even my own family! You wanna know the crazy part though... It's crazy because it makes no sense! Why would someone watch someone even though they know the watched person is aware of the watcher. and yet both parties seem to carry on in their own crazy ways?

And what's really far out is that I'm just as guilty
because I don't bring up the subject eitheir

is this a paradox?

And YES, I'M TALKING TO YOU!!!

I Know that YOU Know that I Know what You Know

And YOu too,

Oh, and back in the corner there! Please, STAND UP for the Audience AND TAKE A BOW!!

Is there a double standard here? Christians can put up billboards which are blatant attempts to spread the delusion and manipulate vulnerable people with fear, but if I was to put up a billboard in an attempt free people of a cruel system that enslaves them, I would probably be lynched by a mob of fanatics.
