I see a lot of people answering questions directed to Jehovah's Witnesses.....Obviously indoctrenated..Then they make the claim.."I am not a Witness"

Do you have to be baptized to call yourself a Witness?


This is a change, because when I was young I called myself a Witness even before I was baptized...

If you claim that you are not a witness, then why answer Witness questions?

I was going through one of my old trunks and found a set of prayer beads. Hadn't seen then in years. They were given to me by a nice lady in Nicaragua around 20 years ago. She said that her prayers would be with me in the jungle. Well, I'm still here so it definately didn't hurt any. Back to the point; I'd thought about sending the beads back to her (provided I can find the address and she's still alive) along with a spirit drum, and a picture of myself with my baby. I'm not sure if I should actually send the beads, or have a picture taken wearing the beads, maybe with the baby holding the drum. What do you think?

So my bf and I "parted" ways (3 weeks ago). It was done without any malice; however, he started talking to me again. I know that we probably wont get back but how do I get rid of my feelings for him? I still stare at pics of him (sad I know), but how do I get over him? Thanks in advance.

Do you think the fundies are going to boycott The Golden Compass when it comes out in theaters? Kind of like they did with The Da Vinci Code?

I seem to recall that America was founded on the principle as stated, Freedom OF religion, entailing that we have the right to worship as we see fit. Why do atheists and non-religious types plague this forum which is designated FOR the Religious & Spiritual? Shouldn't they have their own forum, perhaps something like "Society & Culture > I Have Nothing Better to Do with my Meaningless Life than Annoy People Who Have Happy Ones"? I find it funny how atheists complain that they get bombarded with Christian prosyletizing and attempts to convert them, but it seems to me they're the ones constantly bombarding religious advocates quite unwelcome.

...on the R&S forum, or in fact any of the other sections listed on Yahoo Q&A? Do you think this forum has helped you be more or less tolerant of other's belief system, nationality or race? I do apologize if this question has been asked too many times, but I am interested to know what you have to say because people come and go around here! Thanks in advance for your answer, and please, no thumbs down. It has been my observation that the "Thumbs" are many times more of a popularity poll than anything else.
I will say that I have learned from many others here that do not hold the same beliefs that I do, and I feel I have much diversity in my friends.

I'm a single guy and I love ramen. I usually prepare a seafood flavored ramen with a can of either tuna or salmon, or with a small package of shrimp.
I usually have chopped tomato and onion , and diced cilantro on the fridge to add to my ramen.
I always keep soy sauce and pepprer handy to make my ramen yummier.

No one seems to have a problem with my ramen, but everyone tells me it's ridiculous that I always eat ramen with chop-sticks, and I always keep chop-sticks at home.

Is it so wrong that a non-Asian likes to eat with chop-sticks?

Adam and Eve had children until they were 800 years old. After that, was Eve past the child-bearing years or did Adam have trouble getting it up?

Organized religion presents man as overflowing with sin and unworthy of God's grace. Humans are portrayed as worse than animals since we have a choice to not sin and yet we do so anyway. We must get on our knees and ask for forgivenss for our souls being put into these human bodies.

I am in no way a hedonist, but it appears organized religion has usurped the concept of God, i.e., if you don't believe in X, you will go to hell. Does anyone else feel this way?

If all other variables are the same.

Who do you think will be happier and more successful in life, Atheists (Agnostics could be included) or religious people?

I can see why they would dislike the ones that preach to them all of the time. But some Pagans started yelling at me because they saw that I was wearing a cross necklace, why do they have so much hate towards Christians who did absolutely nothing to them?

As a black person, I think Al Sharpton is the biggest two faced racist Ive ever seen. He wants to monitor Don Imus, but the loser cant even single out some of the gansta rappers like 50 cent who are worse. He doesnt speak for the majority of the Black race. And that goes for those so called wanna be New Black Panthers.
