Many atheists claim Christians and other religious people are deluded. Is it possible that atheists are the ones that are actually deluded?

Isn't these verses so pretty and expiring?
88:1 O Lord God who delivers me!

By day I cry out

and at night I pray before you.

88:2 Listen to my prayer!

Pay attention to my cry for help!

88:3 For my life is filled with troubles

and I am ready to enter Sheol.

Mom told me not to be shaving my pubic hair. What should I do?
I was showering when my mom came into the bathroom to get something and saw me shaving my hair down there.

Later that evening she sat me down and said not to be doing that anymore. She gave some health reasons and then said she didn't think that a Christian girl had any buisness shaving that because she thinks it looks worldly and like the body of a prostitute. She said that we need to stay away from sexual sin. She said God put hair there for a reason.

I told her I am 14 and have to shower with girls who all shave and I don't want to be the only one who doesn't.

I am traveling to MI for Christmas with my boyfriend to spend it with his family. It will be my first Christmas doing so (we've been together a couple of years now).

I don't have a TON of money, but would like to make some little gift bags or something for his extended family (grandma, aunts, uncles, etc).. those people I don't know too much about but would still like to show them I appreciate getting to see them and all. I will be buying gifts for his parents and brother, so that's not an issue.

Does anyone have any suggestions for affordable gift bag ideas that won't be cheesy, and will give a nice impression? Thanks!

Why is it that when the LDS church tells women not to wait to have children, they don't offer them any kind of financial support? Most of these young women are in their early twenties and have husbands going through school. The Church also tells women not to work outside the home, so, consequently many LDS women think it's okay to have lots of babies and be on medicaid until their husbands are out of school. Since when is it an LDS woman's divine right to have lots of babies on tax payers dollars just because she won't work outside the home like other American women? Shouldn't the Church step in to remedy this situation because having babies on other people's hard earned tax dollars seems like robbery, and if I remember right, thou shalt not steal is still a commandment...

Is it not the intent behind the word over the word itself? If not, is there some sort of magically property to the word? Do those letters, arranged in that order, and pronounced as such, create some sort of triggered involuntary reaction that people would be offended regardless of the intent of it's usage?

Many people say that we evolved from apes and evolved into human beings. Many other people say that we came to be from the famous story of Adam and Eve. Which is it? Im tired of not knowing.

If we all have ''free will'' why should there be a constant threat of 'punishment' if we choose ''not to believe''? Live our lives by an ethical code of behavior, common sense, and that's good, too.But, don't push it on others. Right?
Or if we 'choose to believe' and live moral lives, well, good for us. But, don't push it on the others. Right?
Free to choose? in god. Yes?
Free to choose? Not to believe in god. No?
If we have a set of rules, decided by logic, and ethics, and the law of the land, do we really need anything else?
If you break the law of the land. Jail
Breaking of moral or ethical law? Punishment by peers?
People should be able to make a 'rational decision' as to what they believe. Free will.?
Who says there is only ''one way to go'', IF we have free will?????
So, I don't understand all the hoopla, about, how we think, either for god, or against god, if you aren't free to choose, where does the free will, come in??????????

Does anyone else know how this works, this ''f

religion and/ spirituality to bring about peace and completeness in your own lives. Why is this such a non-peaceful section?

I feel any spiritual being would be appalled by the amount of hatred when the point of all of this is to bring about peace, love and harmony.

Anyone with/against me?

If so, wouldn't it be better to die while you are still a baby?
