Does religious indignation manifest more bad than good? Would an ethically educated athiest or agnostic be likely wage war against members of an opposing viewpoint? Has religion become a substitute for ethics? Do people understand the difference between the two?

If God created the universe, then who or what created him? If he created himself, how did he do it?
Furthermore, when he first was created, how did he get all this power so he could create the universe?

There is common doctrine in many religious writings and beliefs that require respect and nuturing of the Earth.

If we believe in the idea that mankind fell from grace, direct communion with God, and also believe the odds favor intelligent life elsewhere in the universe, then would beings from another civilization in the vastness of space also have fallen, or still be in direct communion with God? If so, would we be a contaminating factor?

My cousin's getting married in August I'm not sure exactly how they are doing the ceremony (I've heard there's a difference between a chapel wedding and one in the temple ... though I think they're going for a chapel one for some reason). So as a non-mormon guest with next to no knowledge about what's going to happen, what should I wear?

I asked this question in a different way recently, but wanted to give a more specific example to spark debate. The flu, and viruses in general are a perfect example of evolution in hyperspeed, because they have thousands of generations in the time it takes man to go through one generation. We all know that the flu is constantly "evolving" because there is always a "new strain" that gets people sick, even for those who got shots last year. And sometimes it mutates into a form that is downright deadly. How do Christians take these kinds of drugs, knowing they were created by scientists using their understanding of evolution to fight the disease and reconcile it against their disbelief in evolution.

I cry everynight thinking about war and destruction. Then, a powerful blow struck upon me. A person named bc_munkee repeatedly attacks me and my beliefs. He is the monger and prolonger of wars. He represents every evil in this world. His dark soul captures any amount of good around him and he turned it into hate.
