How much of you morality is really based on personal values rather than religiously or governmentally dictated laws? How do you explain the fact that nearly every culture in the world follows the same basic moral code despite the fact that religious beliefs vary?

Hey - I don't have too many friends.. and the ones I have got are all ones which I have only recently made.

I don't want to not get them anything... any ideas on something which I could buy in bulk and then use as individual presents??

I have a group of friends from my new dance school who I need to buy presents for.

This morning I woke up and saw that someone had sent me picture mail on my phone. The picture was of a Jesus action figure. I didn't recognize the number, but figured out that the area code (337) was from Louisiana. I live in Texas. I just called the number, and heard a recording saying the number in service. Does anyone have any clue as to what this is/who did it/what it's about? It makes no sense, and started my day off in a very strange way...

I am a Christian and I'm proud to say it, but so many media people and others are trying to guilt me out of my beliefs, which certainly will never happen. But society is changing so much that its like its ok to thank God, but dont mention Jesus... whats going on????

...what it's really like being dead, feeling and thinking absolutely nothing? Is it because it's so hard to comprehend nothingness?

No Bible quotes please. I really don't care what God thinks, just your personal thoughts. =)

Our school currently has a very strict uniform which in California is very uncomfortable. For the spring/fall uniform my proposal is solid color polo shirts and khaki pants. For the winter November-March I am proposing Navy blue, black, or gray blazer, solid color oxford shirt, tie, khaki pants, and dress shoes. is that a good idea should it be stricter or looser.

For the dress uniform it would be navy blue or black blazer white oxford shirt tie gray dress pants black socks and shoes for girls navy blue or black blazer white oxford shirt gray skirt or pants

It is a coed private school so for girls it would be the same except they would have to wear white oxford shirts without the tie and they could wear skirts

How many of you religiously watch the Charlie Brown Thanksgiving episode every year?

It all starts with the great pumpkin in October.....
And then the Thanksgiving special (on last night)....
And then of course, Merry Christmas Charlie Brown.......


For some reason, Thanksgiving just wouldn't be the same without it. It's got that "School House Rock" effect on me.

when you can't remember any life before this. It seems to me that we already know whether there is a life waiting for us in another place because we didn't have a life before this one.

So why can people know they had no life before this but be so sure that they will get one after.

And PLEASE don't say that there was a life before this but we don't remember it. In the first place, if you don't remember it how could you possibly know about it, and in the second place if there was no continuity of memory what would be the point. That would not be ONE life it would be two separate lives.

It seems to me like a lot of people think that todays wicca/witchcraft is based on Crowleys ideas. Just me personally, I think he was kind of creepy and pretty insane. I've read several books by Scott Cunningham, Silver Ravenwolf, Lexa Rosean, and other famous others. I also know a lot of wiccans/witches and I don't see where they relate at all to Crowleys ideas, other than the small fact of the differance between 'magic' and 'magick'. These aren't satanic, devil worshipping people, like 'The Beast 666'. Maybe it's just me, but I don't see much relation between todays wicca/witchcraft and Crowley. Do you? Thanks in advance

You as a normal person would sin, but you do know where the limit is drawn.
You don't need to believe in God to know that killing is wrong, as a normal person you just feel it in your conscience that killing someone is wrong.

Nonetheless there are so many people killing each other out there! How come these people have no sense of right and wrong? How come they don't feel bad for killing someone?
A normal person like you would never kill anyone!

Monsterous demons are possesing these people!!

Infact so many people around you these days are possesed and controlled by some dark force!

Your friendly neighbor could turn evil any time if possesed by a demon! You can't trust anyone! It is out there! It is the only explanation to why people can kill heartlessly!

I infact experienced demon possesion numerous times having my brother grip locking me for my family's safety!

The scary thing was I knew what I was doing but I couldn't stop myself from turning berserk!

in here, why does it say uk and Ireland only if it does not mean UK and Ireland.?I used to watch my brother on Q&A, and I got to know you all especially the one from CA who went about reporting everyone. I think that Lady was born with a microchip in her head, that kept repeating the word guidelines.
I think you know who she is, anyway we have a lot of different words to you, words that you have a different meaning for. And if we say our own words we could get reported by that yank which she has done before whereas no one would report you in the UK because they would know what the word means.

I will be cooking turkey, lasagna, stuffing, candied yams, cornbread. My husband will be making his asparagus with parmesan cheese, and garlic spinach. We're cooking for only 4 of us and our boys are 2 and 6, so we'll be cooking in small portions.

What do you do when you need to buy christmas presents for 25 people in your family and you can't afford it?
Obviously I could buy cheap presents for everyone but then I would feel like crap. Yes I know they would understand because they are family.....but again.....that would make me feel like absolute crap.

So now what???

why did christians still believe slavery was ok until only about 100 years ago? why did they believe murdering the non-believers, i.e. native americans, was ok a few hundred years ago? why in some states was interracial marriage banned until less than ten years ago? christianity had over 1500 years to spread from the time of jesus till the oldest events i mentioned. and these weren't unpopular practices among christians either. they were very common. shouldn't the new covenant have allowed for blacks to remain free? shouldn't the new covenant have allowed for the native americans to practice their own religions? shouldn't the new covenant have allowed for interracial marriages?
