my friend was telling me about this story in a news paper about a man put on the sex offenders list for having sex with his bike in the privacy of his own room.
I find this shocking why be so harsh with him?
my friend said that there is this law in scotland that says it is againt the law to have sex with inanimate objects is this true? if it is alot of people are probably breaking this law as we speak.

What kind of disappoints me about most books and websites on both subjects that I have come across is that they entirely support one or the other. Also, when most of them speak about the other lot, they dive head first into a vitriolic eruption of accusation and criticism.

What I would like to see is something that Cites all the evidence ever used to support either claim and simply outline what evolutionists and creationist both say about it. Ideally, there should be no vitriolic accusations flung at the opposite camp, but the conclusion should be open ended to allow the reader/viewer/listener to decide for themselves. Does such a document exist? Is it possible to put one together, since anyone with any view on the matter would naturally lean in their preferred direction, and since two authors (one creationist, one evolutionist) taking the adversarial approach would be likely to argue too much to get any work done?

Modern scholars label old beliefs "mythology", i.e. Greek Mythology, Egyptian Mythology, etc. But existing religions also believe in supernatural things: god(s)/supreme being(s), afterlives, mythical stories, magic/miracles, sacrifices/korbans, rituals/prayings, etc. The elements are all the same. Even the economics of temples/churches/mosques are practically the same.

Of course current 6-billion believers prefer to be perceived as believers of truths instead believers of myths. But that's just for ego and political purpose. Taking these aside, why can't we call current religions "mythology"?

I love intellectual thoughts. So with all due respect, please give me reasoning that makes sense. We have enough of "but god is true", "you are just not enlightened yet", "you atheists go to hell", hard-to-eat biblical quotations, and the likes.

Does it not seem sexist and imply that women are only worth a fraction of men?

In my opinion their is no God and I am waiting for science to provide the answer to how we are all on this planet. Let me put it this way, just as most Christian people say that "God was always there" I say maybe "The earth was always there". This is for a collage thesis so please constructive answers only.

Do antagonists to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints really believe that a 14 year old uneducated farm boy decided to make up a cult, and wrote the Book of Mormon?

I'm doing a project on world hunger, and one of the questions I have to answer is "Why should we care?"
I know it's something with morals.
Can you think of a reason?
and please, I don't want a political answer

The Bible speaks in 1 Timothy 2:5 about man Christ Jesus being a mediator in heaven. Yet, the Watchtower Society has the archangel Michael being this mediator. Do you know why?

My Christmas Wish

Christmas is approaching us
And blinking lights appear
What I wouldn't give right now
To hold my sweetheart near
Not a single candy cane
Could be as sweet as you
Santa Clause can't make me laugh
If your not near me too
Please come home this Christmas Eve
You'd warm me like a glove
Hold me close into the night
This Christmas, be my love.

If a man is caught in the act of raping a young woman who is not engaged, he must pay fifty pieces of silver to her father. Then he must marry the young woman because he violated her, and he will never be allowed to divorce her.

Don't they realize that the King James Version of the Bible was written in English and therefore English is a Christian language?

Shouldn't atheists all speak esperanto or tok pisin?

Imagine jesus spoke personally to you and asked you to do something that would challenge you immensley or even take you away from all that you know and are comfortable with.
Would your faith in his request make you do it or would you say no.This of course is a hypothetical question but be as honest as you feel you can be.
Explain your reasons.Thanks.

My mom love musical theater and reading. She has a funky sense of style. She's in her early 40s. I asked her what she wanted, and she said 'Don't spend your money on me!', but i know that come Christmas time, my mom will be bitter is she doesn;t get any presents. Mind you, I'm a fourteen year old working of a tight babysitting budget. So what should I do?
**ALSO** What should my dad get her... he's stumped too!

I LOVE the Bible! It is nonfiction AND mystery, love, fantasy, adventure, realistic, etc etc!
Why don't people like it? I mean, obviously they have different religions but what's NOT to believe or like about the Bible?

The idea is to have a museum with robotic wax figures in all the ridiculous stages of worshipping different religions and denominations.
