It's really not their place.
From what I've seen, they tend to be extreme hypocrites.

Then again, they have no ideals of sin and/or virtue.

I'd like some elaboration.

I believe Jesus saved all of creation, including everyone that ever existed, and I don't do good works or religious works to please him cause I believe he is already pleased. I don't confess sins cause I don't think its necessary for salvation.
Am I going to hell?
Yes = must have correct theology.
No = Jesus really is might to save.

public schools if it was required that all churchs have to teach Darwins theory of evolution to their congregations?

It seems more then fair to me.

I have to have a paper tomorrow on my patron saint/confirmation name. Does anyone know if there is a patron saint of responsibility, or like good grades or maybe against procrastination. Or maybe like a really pretty french name or something of the sort.

Thanks!!!

My husband & I are having a disagreement. I say things to him & he doesn't answer or respond in anyway. I am uncertain of whether or not he even hears me, because he says nothing & does not acknowledge that I even spoke. It is upsetting to me because I was taught that you respond when you've been spoken to giving some response. He says there is no need to respond to anything that is not a question. I understand that a question requires an answer, but it is proper for someone to not in anyway acknowlege you when you talk to them? I'd think he is probably technically correct, but it is kind or considerate? Thanks for any help.

and did hundreds of hours of Bible study. Although that all helped turn me into an atheist, I do have a pretty good understanding of where the Christian mindset lies.

Now, would you be willing - in the spirit of understanding and learning - to listen to at least a few minutes of four prominent atheists and give your feedback:

if not, I will understand that this exercise could threaten your religious conviction.

Thanks (and yes, that IS in the form of a question, Alex!)

Parents will never tell you, how you hurt them. Instead they forgive you all the time.

You think you are doing great. You think your parents don't knwo your weakpoints. Actually they don't tell, assuming that you will change one day.

Parents would never tell their children openly their faults.

It is their irresponsibility makes others to suffer.

When others try to address this issue, the children treat them like enemies.

really i want to know what it is? How come a baby can born with sin? How come somebody can die for our sin? Where is the logic??!!! Whereas Muslim believes every baby is sinless, every person is sinless until he or she commits a sin. Muslim believes everybody is responsible for their own sin, not others.

Are the Cohanim blessed more by God than the other tribes? Were they ever believed to have special powers? Why do they deserve to eat the sacrifices more than any other people?

I really want to convert my religion and become wiccan. But when I told my dad, he had a problem with it and he said "When you move out on your own, you can be whatever religion you want to be" and my dad told me that he was agnostic, but now I think he's Christian...or is there something about wiccan that may turn people off?

Can anyone help me come up with a convincing argument, that being a wiccan is not bad...even though he clearly thinks it's a horrible religion.

And can anyone direct me to some good wiccan websites?

when it wasn't in fact your birthday? So, why all the clatter from Christians about saying "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas" or "Happy Birthday Jesus". I mean, not even educated Christians disagree that Christmas was not the time of Jesus' birth - not even close.

this powerful season of the year when darkness reigns and we wait for the light to return? This is the Going Within time on the Medicine Wheel, a time of introspection. My gift from the heart to all beings is "awakening from slumber," and I begin with myself as I rouse from the darkness of the Cave of Ego. As I transform, my light ignites other lights. Gifts are "for-giving," including forgiving oneself. What gift would you most like to give to the World? Why is this particular gift important to all beings? How will it benefit this World? Be loving and generous...as though the World were your precious child.

should give tithes and I also understand that we should give offerrings.A tithe is tenth or ten precent of our gross earnings ,my question is where in the WORD does it say how much our offerring should be .Is there a place where it says that it should be more than ten precent or more than our tithe it self.I know it is more of a blessing to give and than it is to recieve and that when we give it shall be given unto us.I also know that if we give sparingly that we will also reap sparingly. But is there a place that says a certain amount should be given as it is said concerning tithe.Please give scripture references ONLY .Thank you for your time .Best Wishes>>
