What are your basic beliefs? How do you differ from witches and pagans? Just curious since I don't personally know any and want to understand.

Why is it that we Christians,Jews, Muslims,Hindu's, Buddahists,Pagans, Wiccans, Agnostics, and Aethists {And anyone else I forgot to mention} can't just learn to play nice and ask honest respectful questions. Surely we are mature enough and secure enough in our beliefs and theories to play nice?

1 Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning.

2 Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.

3 Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.

4 Straight marriage has been around long time and hasn’t changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can’t marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.

5 Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Brittany Spears’ 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.

6 Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn’t be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren’t full yet, and the world needs more children.

Seriously a group of Athiest has a One Million Dollar reward offered if you can raise someone from the dead.I am an Ordained Minister but I think they have a point.Maybe Jesus only raised people from the dead so He could prove to the people of His time that He was who He said He was.-------Rev.Jason Petty greendonkey34@yahoo.com

Just curious how the whole religion is really "good".
Sections advocate slavery, abuse, and other horrible behavior.
When I bring this up, I'm told it refers to another period of time not relevant to today.
If that's true, then was it really ok to have slavery and demonize women in the past?
Were those the golden years?

I was opening the door for some people who had just bought a cedar chest from me at my home. I live off a very busy main street. Then hawk just flew right down on my picnic table within about 4 feet of us and stayed there for about 3 to 4 minutes. I went back in to get my camera by then it flew to the garage roof on the edge and starred at us for another couple of minutes before flying off.
I believe this may have been a sign or message of some sort.
Does anyone have a clue what that may be?
Thanks :)!

Do you believe in aliens? If you believe in aliens and not a deity, explain why you believe there is more evidence for extraterrestrials than a deity. Thanks, and have a nice day!

why is it that we do not except or turn our backs on others because of different religious beliefs?

Honestly how many of us think we should force others to believe as we do? Don't we all believe in freedom to choose who or if we will believe and follow? I am not saying stop reaching out or stop discussing and debating. I am just tired of posts about hate and abolishing ANYONES choice concerning religion or lack of it.

I had an epiphany one day while I was pondering the nature of things. What if there is some weird alien race that exist on some ethereal level like spirits, and they farm planets through out our universe, sentient souls are their source of nutrients. They find planets that have intelligent life then plant the seed of religion in the early stage so as to make a species more docile and likely to come to them when they die. The light at the end of the tunnel is not the door way to heaven, but some strange soul harvesting machine. This alien race would have extensive knowledge of the universe and technology that is beyond us by billions of years, oh and they had strange powers. They would plant spies on Earth to help spread fictitious religious stories in an effort to trap us and blind us to the truth. What if there technology was able to cause great catastrophes on earth so that many people could die at once, it would be like a harvest of the crops, of course leaving people alive so that the crop could replenish it self. Maybe if we knew that this was going on we would be able to get away, and that’s why they plant the seed of religion, to keep us in the dark about their malevolent intensions. I know it sounds crazy, but no crazier than the stories of religion it self.

guy or muslim guy I would have been deeply punished as I was raised Christian. Why does religion have to be such a hateful, out for revenge type of deal. What was ever wrong with just love and peace? I am now a universial unitarian, and whom ever I date in the future I will welcome their differences. Although this country is screwed up right now, I do believe that its one of our greatest assests. To be diverse, to live in a world where all people can coexist, Muslim woman can speak, Jewish men can marry catholic women, and children learn and appreciate the differences of all people from, Hindu to Catholic. Granted not all people are taught that by their parents, we as children who grow up, have the ability to chose one of two things. Love or Hate.

"And Giggles cried out, "You may worship all you wish to all that is not so, but I am your king and you shall have many wars and much bloodshed and shall know no peace for you have turned against my peaceful ways and my love and so all who believe in anything but me shall have nothing but hate in their hearts."- BB 2:3
