1.Is Earth not man's prison.
2. Is man's mind not his logical confinement.
3. Is man's heart not his emotional incarceration?
4. Is it possible to be alive and not be exploited?
5.Are we nothing more than ants living in a world of sand?
6. When we worship God are we not really worshiping our own existence?
7. If people realized there is no one on Earth that can dictate their lives, what authority would man have left?
8. Does the Bible not go in circles, contradicting itself in many ways, until it appears to be blank?
9. When authority fails to exist, what logic will sustain our survival?
10. When all is said and done, will we have ended a good thing or a bad thing, both or neither?

So ehhh... thinking it over and all. If the god of the bible were real then the gist is,"If you believe in me and serve me on earth, I will spare you my wrath and your own destruction and allow you to serve me in heaven."
Enslavement or destruction... *blinks confusedly*
Perhaps I watch to much SciFi channel but... this really sounds to me like it could be the next big SciFi movie. Putting it in that perspective though, wouldnt that mean the Satanists are the good guys?

It's this weird cemetary located somewhere in Washington state. Me and my girlfriend wanted to go see this for ourselves. You have to, appartently, go down these thirteen steps and you see a little chair. If you sit in the chair it automatically means you have sold your soul to the devil. I think it sounds really creepy. I was at church with my friend, I'm an christian, and his pastor said that he went there when he was about 16. He said it was the worst experience of his entire LIFE! So this sounds pertty interesting. Please do NOT say anything negative because I will report you.

Why is it that when the same amount of people who die in other parts of the world it is hardly mentioned? There are websites, recovery groups, buildings, monuments, books, magazines, and other stuff made in remembrance of 9/11.

But when a cyclone kills 3,000 people in Bangladesh, when an earthquake kills 2,500 people in Indonesia, or when a terrorist group kills hundreds of people in the Phillippines, it is barely mentioned and it almost never makes the front pages. Most people will never hear these stores. Why?

Are American lives worth more than other lives? To me, I think a human in Sri Lanka is the same as a human in New York City. To me, a street beggar in Calcutta is just as worthy of life as a millionaire in Beverly Hills. It just doesn't make any sense to me.

By the way, not only am I an American but I am also an Airman in the Air Force. I feel sad every time I think about 9/11 and I wish it never happened. But worse things happen almost every day around the world.

I have only known 3 Mormons in my life. Two of them are on here! Drizzt and Catti-Brie. They are both really excellent people. The one other Mormon I know is a very good friend of mine, as well. So, why all the hating on Mormons? What's so bad about a Mormon?

I hear christians say if you don't obey gods word you will go to hell and burn for eternity,but that doesn't make sense why would the devil do gods work for him. If someone denounces god and was sent to hell wouldn't the devil welcome them with open arms and not want to torture them being that he is gods enemy. I think hell is a condition not a place, christians make it seem like a place so they can scare people into believing, plus god is supposed to be a forgiving god it doesn't seem fare to send someone to hell for eternity for something that lasted for say 30 40 50 or 60 years, god doesn't seem fear and just or forgiving.

Briefly, tell us how your path has been founded, developed and evolved since it's beginnings in modern times. And, if possible, give a brief overview of HOW and WHO you worship. No need for enormous detail, just enough to generally inform those who would be interested in learning about us.

In your own words, explain to me the biological or logical barriers that prevent the latter from taking place.

After all, if you assert that microevolution is possible, but macroevolution isn't, then it becomes necessary to specify where the boundary is which supposedly cannot be crossed.

I'm about to become an atheist. How do people gain faith? To me faith seems to be based on nothing! You just accept something based on nothing... how does that work? How can you base your whole life on a hypothetical thing? If you do indeed experience God, how are you sure it's not suggestion, or psychology, or a delirium? How can you ever trust something blindly? How?! It doesn't make sense at all! How do you know there's a God and how do you know YOUR God is the right one? If your God is so powerful why are there so many religions in such great amounts? If your God is so kind why would the world basically work cruelly and randomly? If your God is so true why can I not see him? Why does blind faith work as your excuse for everything if it doesn't make sense? Can someone explain religion with logic? Is the forbidden fruit such a bad thing? Do logic and religion go together? Why does religion promote intolerance and ignorance? Why does it promote happiness?

Why is the number 7 so significant in the bible? it appears everywhere from the 7 days of creation to the 777 years the lamech lived untill he died. ive heard an interesting theory explaining how many religions, even catholisism, are based on astrology, and this clearly is a valid explanation. would astrology have any impact on the significance of this number?

Before I begin, I would like to note that I am a Christian, but there is something I would like to get off my chest. Why is it when somebody says that they are a Christian, it is seen as a "good" thing to society? Why is the term "Christian values" used so often? I mean, values that we all agree on...such as doing good for others, being kind and respectful, etc...aren't those values that EVERYONE can have, no matter what their beliefs?

This notion of Christians being "better" people is somewhat arrogant and condescending to those who aren't Christians. It makes it sound like Christians are supposed to live by higher standards than everyone else, which isn't true. I know many self-proclaimed Christians who treat people like crap, and I know many people who aren't Christians who are warm and friendly. You hear all the time about people who convert to Christianity..how they are "getting their life turned around"...who's to say that being a Christian automatically makes people "better"?

I'm a teenage guy in highschool and there's a 13 year old boy I know who's been acting unusual around me. For a while, he's been coming up to me, poking me, tripping me, pulling pranks on me, bumping into me and telling me random, stupid jokes about movies, tv shows, sex and other random things. He would act like just a normal immature kid his age most of the time, until once he came up to me and asked me if I masturbated, then if I've ever orgasmed before. At first, I laughed it off and figured it was a joke. I thought this at first, but then he asked me two more times later. Afterwards, he's tried taking subtle gropes at my back, pelvis and chest, and I can't tell if he's 'feeling' me or if they're just accidents that I'm being too concious about. Is this kid gay? Is it just a phase? Is he just curious? Does he have some kind of crush on me? How can I tell? What should I do about it? Am I just freaking out about nothing? What should I do?

In the Bible it says that there will be streets and houses of gold. But what if you're more of the silver type? Many, including me, picture it to be beautiful and sunny with rainbows and flowers. But what if you're more the overcast type? Also, do you think we will hold sexual relationships in Heaven?

Sure, it doesn't answer specific questions of whether or not it is right or wrong to go 3 MPH over the speed limit, but does it provide enough baseline to be considered an absolute?
