I mean, just take a minute and read the way many of us Christians shower them with love and understanding, how we call them to grow by being shining examples of the love and patience of Jesus for all people?

Is it possible to read a few questions or answers from a couple of fundies and see just how insane it is for atheists to feel a little bit ticked off and on the defensive?

And thank God there are absolutely NO Christians who ever get defensive and petty on here, right?

And yes, I'm using IRONY to ask a perfectly valid question, so there is no need to lean on the report button.

God forbid little Christian children see that there are different views out there!

Here's a thought: Take your kids to see the movie. Then talk to them about it. Explain what you believe in, and what you would want your child to believe in, but explain that there are other people out there who believe differently, but that it doesn't make them bad people. Also point out that the movies and books are fantasy, and not real. The "church" in the movies isn't the church in the real world.

Honestly, people. You guys got Narnia. Let non-Christians have our fanciful fantasy epic.

That this would fit ok on a guy who wears size 30 pants? My guy lost a bet to me and now he has to wear a womans thong under his pants for a few hours at home one night this week when I have some of the ladies over for cocktails that he of course will be serving. Nobody but him and I will know (but I know its going to be hard to resist telling my firends!). I picked this one from VS. What do you think ? Any suggestions on the color to go with?

Why do people blamed them for their problems. They're just during their business. Who's fault is that you're fat (no offense), it's yours because you chose to eat their everyday, so people stop blaming Mcdonald's, and take responsibility for your actions.

There can be no doubt from history, Scripture and the writings of the fathers that the belief in the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist was a universal belief from the earliest Church. From the beginning the Eucharist was the focus of all Christian worship where the corporeal Christ is present according to His words, ”this is my body, this is my blood”.

Even though many attribute Luther as the first Reformer, Luther was actually teaching a very similar theology to Jan Huss who preceded Luther by a century although Luther claimed not to know of the teaching of Huss. But even among his contemporaries Ulrich Zwingli was teaching reform in Zurich in 1522. His doctrine was the most radical of any of the Reformers when He forbade the.........

I work in a health care setting. Teamwork is required to accomplish the day's duties. On the out patient care setting in which I work. We are paired to perform treatments. This one co worker has consistently traded his assignment on days we are paired. He has told me the reason why, is because my perfume is too strong. Fine! I purposely did not wear cologne on the days I have to work in that area around him. I've noticed him staring at me from a distance. He stll trades out his assignment to have another person work with me. My immediate supervisor has even asked me to exchange rooms to grant his wishes. Another supervisor asked if I thought this coworker was predjudiced. I really do not know, he doesen't talk to me nor do I ever say anything to him. It has gotten to the point now , that I do not want to even work anywhere near him.
I really do not feel very comfortable around him.
Should I report this to our HR dept. What should I do?

Seems we have a lot of people that don't. And not only don't but blaspheme religion in any form and seem to have disdain for it. Are there any good catholic girl's out there?

The Hebrew Language has two different words for the word ONE. The first is singular and the other is a collective - unit…

The word “one” translated here meant UNIT…do you know the other names of God?

Deuteronomy 6 : 4Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one (UNIT) LORD:

This is one of the names:

From Hebrew:
Theophany –An appearance of a god to a human; a divine manifestation.

When one sneezes, most of the population (I don't) say "bless you". But I was told once that's its something to do with people believing demons were escaping your body when you sneezed and you needed to be blessed or something?!?! But, I thought that christians don't believe in demons. So i'm confused, help please? Also, i'm atheist and I work with christians that are always saying "bless you" when I sneeze. I don't bring up religion in my work because it's not worth the fight, so they don't know i'm atheist. Should I say anything back or just ignore them?
