other people's lunches out of the fridge, and you knew it was because they were struggling financially, what would you do?
I thought about putting a bagged lunch in there with her name on it each day, do you think she would be offended? Most of the lunches she takes, are extra stuff people leave in there, for those just in case days, when we don't get time to order out.

The questions:
1. Why won't God heal amputees?
2. Why are there so many starving people in our world?
3. Why does God demand the death of so many innocent people in the Bible? Eg.: Deuteronomy 21:18-21 –God demands that we kill disobedient teenagers. Deuteronomy 22:13-21 –God demands that we kill girls who are not virgins when they marry.
4. Why does the Bible contain so much anti-scientific nonsense?
5. Why is God such a huge proponent of slavery in the Bible? E.g.: Exodus 21:20-21 – God says that it is OK to own slaves, and it is also OK to beat them.
6. Why do bad things happen to good people?
7. Why didn't any of Jesus' miracles in the Bible leave behind any evidence?
8: How do we explain the fact that Jesus has never appeared to you?
9. Why would Jesus want you to eat his body and drink his blood? It sounds totally grotesque, doesn't it?
10. Why do Christians get divorced at the same rate as non-Christians?

what is the original american language? most people say that it's english but how can it be? english comes from england, isn't english considered a foreign language in america?

what happened to the american aborigines, the native americans like some people call it what language they spoke
why we european took over other people's land and forced other to speak our european language, why should everyone have praise and listen to what pale man says

and what is up with the strict rules that only english should be spoken, english comes from england not america.

I may get slammed for this, but, is there a way to communicate with other gay people in the middle east? All I see is what our media provides. I would be interested to correspond with gay people who live in probably the most volitile area of the world right now. Is it possible?

I'm Pagan, I've had my clothes set on fire, my house egged, people write me nasty letters, people on here call me a hippy weirdo (I don't do any form of drug, I love country music and I'm happily married to one man so the Love Drugs and Rock N' Roll theory doesn't work)

They are fat, they have drawings on their skin, they wear metal in their faces. They dress like men and they are usually drunk. It's terrible. And they argue, argue, argue.

If you religious/faith was to become outlawed to the point that practicing it would call for the death penalty would you die for it? Why?

If the above were to happen would you just give up on it and convert or become an atheist?

I would die for mine. It's to important to me, and has helped me through to much.

And if it were to become outlawed I would not convert.

(If you don't believe that souls can be damned to some sort of hell, you need not answer this question, in fact, you can't.)

I'm asking you to think for a moment or two before you answer this question, really try to get in touch with what you FEEL deep down in your guts. Also, I'm asking you to be honest, and say what you feel instead of saying what you might have been taught you SHOULD say.

What's makes you feel worse:
A. A teenager is shot and killed by a total stranger who went postal.
B. An old man dies of natural causes, never having known The Lord; his soul is damned.

Assume, for the purposes of this question that you have no idea what the fate of the teen's soul will be.

If you could, explain each of the 3 aspects of the trinity individually and then explain how they relate to one another. Being honest---I really don't get the Holy Spirit part.

If attachment is what creates suffering - what would Buddhism advise on how to create a close relationship with someone?

Does the concept of detachment include relationships?
Are relationships *transient*?
Isn't true love non-transient.
