I absolutely love how some people preach religious tolerance, and wont even give it to certain groups of people. (IE Wiccas, Atheists)

Does anyone else love this, too?

Santa returns every year with gifts if you were nice. Never see Jesus around at all.

What are the laws/regulations as to what food Muslims may and may not eat. I heard they're similar to the laws of kashrut observed by Jews.

You see, no matter how you answer the question it means that He is not omnipotent (all-powerful). People are always using logic to attempt to disprove God. Fun. What do you guys think?

Atheist are so quick to tell us that the Founding Fathers of America were not Christians...far from it they tell us. To suggest otherwise will fling them into a level 5 Panty-Wad with Neck Veins POPPING!!!......right?


until we discuss the issue of legal slavery...

Suddenly...they put these makers of laws, these Founding Fathers through an evolution that would make Charlie Darwin wet his pants. SUDDENLY they are NOW Neo-Right-Wing Christians who enslaved the Africans..how very convenient of them. Even the Liberal Hero Thomas Jefferson (owner of over 100 slaves) is abandon and no father of theirs..they say!


Which is it?

Have you ever, or would you ever consider researching theories about human evolution and/or paleoanthropology? By this, I mean high school or college courses as well as outside resources, like books or scholastic journals.
Just a quick survey.

I have found that both religions have certian doctrians that seem rather intreging to me, such as no trinity, no pastors/teachers other then white men, the addition of their transtations/books, and most of all the lack of expertise or schooling! why are these so intreging you ask, because I am tring to keep an open mind and bridge the gap of divitions amongst religions

OK so my Mexican gardener just happens to be named Jesus.

He tells me a lot of zaney shite. I thnik that you crackheads need to realize something.

My friend Jesus is not going to hell solely because his mother decided to name him Jesus, nor am I.

Im not going to hell because my mexican gardener, Jesus, told me that "once you go mexican you never want sex again". Thats in no way blasphemous whatsoever.

Why do you keep confusing my Mexican garderer with your Jesus?

Do you really know him as well as you think if you keep mixing him up with a sweaty, 5 foot tall, grey haired mexican?

glass house? i mean all through history there has been christian terrorism and people tend to ignore that fact!!
i say terrorism is in ALL religions.
pointing fingers isn't gonna get you any where people.
i know that there are many people especially Atheists like myself who dont point fingers at a certain religion. we unlike the majority of religious zealots don't stereotype because we don't care much for religion but you Christians are so full of it. when you neglect these facts and refuse to accept them.
here's a question posted by one of you.

Look at how they try and walk in the footsteps of Christ... examine how they tell someone else to kill themselves. What lovely people these people are. Imagine what the world would be like if it were full of intolerant individuals like this.

Anyone else got a link to other hypocrites?

This is not to offend anyone--but I expect scholarly answers.
Some of you believe that--probably religious figures like Jesus or
Mohammed are historical figures and what they did(being intelligent enough to convince the mass) is to creat some religious dogmas about God, angels etc.--some of which they borrowed from the existing religious traditions and some were unique. Do you really think that they believed in the stories or sleight-of-hand(miracles)
that they used for some selfish purposes(according to non-religious views) or they didn't? Doesn't that mean they were Atheists themselves? So--do you think that it can be another theory that--most
so-called revealed Theistic missionary religions are Atheistic Conspiracy and created by Intelligent Atheists with some concrete agenda? It seems to me that imposters like Benny Hine who use religious feelings to deceive people--really don't believe anything--implying that they are Atheists also.What do you think?

I understand that a medium recieves messages (sees, hears or senses them).. but how does the spirit person actually manage to communicate them? And how come some can and some can't?

It took me six months to read the Bible from cover to cover. I'm afraid I may have missed this nugget of knowledge somewhere along the way. The only mention of angels described them in really eye opening ways, nothing like the angels we have popularized. Did I miss the scripture, or is this a common misconception believed by society at large?

i'm not sure if this is a masonic secret, but if it isn't i'd like to know what the skull, crossbones and coffin stands for in masonic symbology. Here are a few examples: http://chunma.yu.ac.kr/~m0015182/etc/images/freemason_8.jpg

Do you realize us agnostics/atheists/buddhists/pagans/satanists/muslims/ etc don't believe in the same trash you do? Why do you expect us to live by your rules? If you believe in myths, that's fine, but don't try to shape MY life based on that!

This morning I spoke to Jesus and he told me the following:

Once you go Mexican, you never want sex again.

Is that true?


PS: Im sure you all know Jesus is also the name of my Mexican Gardener.
