I'm not here to belittle anyone's religious beliefs. I'm just curious if there are any atheist families that celebrate Christmas for other reasons such as habit (maybe they grew up Christian but changed), secular appreciation for the spirit of giving, or not wanting their kids to feel left out.

My home is built upon Jesus, the Rock and Foundation of my life. He never changes; He is solid.

Now atheists build their homes on the shifting sand... as science and humanism ebbs and flows, what will keep their home from becoming anything more than debris on the dunes?

I have had violation for not being an "answer or question" when I was trying to encourage spiritually a question-maker. I will no longer be bothered with this site since I have seen obsene pictures, purposely misspelled swear words as answers and downright offensive content on religion/spirituality. I will let you know if I find a truly spiritual site. God bless you!

I went to a party and got invited to a new year's party. When the husband saw the wife was inviting me, he eye-brows got frown and he immediately kept on walking from the place. I am not at all close to the wife. I got a very cold reception from the last new year's party at his place. That one was a pot-luck [and the organizer invited us]. Normally he himself talks with me if he sees me elsewhere. But he ignored me last couple of times when I went to his house. I missed one of his parties and I did not let him know. He was not happy. What should I do this time? I know I will see some of my other friends there. But it is just insulting to go to someone's place and get a cold reception.

Atheists tend to look at reality an accept it as it is. They believe what can be verified to be truth in the only existence that anyone that has ever lived on earth has ever seen and been able to prove consistently. Christians, on the other hand, refuse to believe things that the rest of the world takes for granted, like evolution and gods originating as ideas in the cultures that worshipped them. Christians believe that their god is the only God. They don't believe that their version god was not around until about 325 CE, when a council voted to make Jesus part of their godhead. They don't believe that Noah's flood never happened. They don't believe that we did not all descend from Adam and Eve, but the rest of us do.

There are many other examples, but the bottom line is that Christians are the ones that really choose not to believe things tha can be verified to be true, so shouldn't they be the ones that are considered "Non-believers"?

i go to a predominantly white school and i am black and i am sick of the stereotypes presented by the two different cultures that i am active in. when i hang out with my [black] family they call me white girl n say im sort of stuck up but when i am with friends at school they think i am ghetto and ask me questions about the black culture. this never bothered me before but now it is really getting old. i wish people didnt think that if you are white and you like "black" music you are trying to be white or vice versa. if you have any answers or opinions on this please respond. thanks.

During a grab bag with friends, I had to open up a gift in front of them, which embarrassed me a little. Ended up getting the one I brought. Once the group realized, they all felt bad and simultaneously went "Awww". Since the attention was all on me, I tried to back away from the group (and attention), and slightly lifted my shoulders and lowered my head. I quietly said it was ok that I got my own gift. Felt embarrassed from the attention and was blushing. Someone in the group stepped forward and traded gifts with me. The next day, he was talking to me (about something unrelated) and I was very soft-spoken while answering. He started smiling a lot when asking me to repeat myself.

Why did he start grinning? Do you think he was making fun of me?

GEN 7:2 Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female.

GEN 7:8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth, GEN 7:9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.

Is this a contradiction or it means that animals weant in by pairs.

I am not a religious person by any means. I do not believe in God or Jesus (or the Devil for that matter)... but I do still celebrate Christmas with my family every year. I do it because I enjoy being with my big family and I love seeing everyone and buying them gifts and spending many days together... Obviously I don't celebrate the holiday for what it supposedly means, but I'm curious as to how others who do not believe in God handle this?

A lot of people have said that they would not have sex with me, but they would how ever make love to me. Is this a compliment, a insult or a mixture of both.

Do you go around trying to tidy up your house/appartment if you know that someone is coming to visit you? Or if you see someone pull into your driveway or coming up the walk, do you tidy up really fast? Or do you just leave it alone?

I was just wondering this because I know on the Golden Girls, they are always trying to tidy up the place before someone gets there and their house always looks good anyway. They go around fluffing up the pillows and so on and so forth.
