Isn't it rather hypocritical to constantly find fault with only certain religions all the time? Isn't that more cut-and-dried bigotry rather than intelligent debate?

If we have to tell a person in his 20's that eve-teasing is not a good thing and that it is a form of sexual harrasment, what best argument can we put if the person says that he has learnt it from his seniors and he just wants to do it for fun? Shouldn't we start with saying that all other women and girls are like his mothers and sisters?

I'm 29 years old, live in Northern Mississippi, & I'm gay. I have a family that loves me and yet will never accept who I really am inside. I've lived for many years in shame and in hiding. I have few friends, because I don't let them close to me. I've tried counseling, and going to gay support groups. But I'm not a typical gay person and thus don't fit in with them either.

To complicate matters, I'm a southern baptist. I lie awake at night crying, & thinking I'm going to hell for being who I am.. and yet.. I've tried everything to change. It's just not a choice or a preference.. it's the way I am.

I stay depressed and suicidal due to my sexual orientation and have yet to talk with any other gay male experiencing anything like what I am going through. Every gay male I chat with online is so concerned with "how big is it?", "do you want to hook up?", or "how much do you weigh?" that I've yet to find a "normal minded" gay man to befriend. Is something wrong with me?

Paul said, "... for as often as you eat this loaf and drink this cup, you keep proclaiming the death of the Lord, until he arrives." (1Cor 11:26). If Christ arrived in 1914, why do Jehovah's Witnesses continue to partake of the bread and wine? Shouldn't they have stopped in 1914?

Since the WTS currently rejects most of the teachings of its founder, Charles Taze Russell (who was president of the organization from 1879-1916), and since they also reject "judge" Joseph Franklin Rutherford, who succeeded Russell as president from 1916-1942, how can you be sure that in 25 more years, the WTS won't reject the current president, Milton Henschel (1992-present), as they did Russell and Rutherford? What kind of confidence can you have in an organization that rejected its founder and first two presidents for the first 63 years of its existence - over 50% of the time they have existed?!

Are there enough resources in the world to support the 6.5 billion people on this planet equally? Are some doomed to starvation because there simply isn't enough to go around and you must scrounge for what you have to survive? Ignoring your Anti-Communistic feelings and your perceptions of human nature, answer whether or not it is actually possible for everyone to live together happily.

I thought I would read the Koran to be a lil less ignorant than I was yesterday.. but alas, maybe that was a mistake!

Like I'm seeing Koran [5:51] and I think it translates to

"Believers, take neither the Jews nor the Christians for your friends. They are friends with one another."

People who live so close together should really try to get along despite their cultural differences shouldn't they?

You need to be careful. There is a Nigerian ring that uses skimming or use of an electronic credit card reader to get your information and steal your ID. I don't give my credit card to the waiter or waitress anymore. I just make sure I have cash before I go.
