Who has more influence or is the most outspoken? Is it the religious or the unreligious?

I am in the addiction education field - teaching students who want to be drug and alcohol counselors. Lately I have noticed an increase in students who have strong beliefs that anyone who does not recognize Jesus Christ as their Savior will not be saved, i.e. going to Hell. My dilemma is that when a student refuses to participate in an activity or does not allow themselves to enter into a critical analysis without using their religious beliefs as a "get out of jail free' card. As a professor/therapist I don't know how to navigate my way around this issue...How can these students want to work with addicts/alcoholics who have lifestyles (for the most part) that are diametrically opposed to the Christian tenets? How can a 'counselor' be accepting and open-minded when their client may have other religious/spiritual beliefs? Can they really keep an open mind and open heart and believe the person they are counseling is damned. Faith based institutions are a solution- but not in this case

Just wonder why people choose to kill a child instead of give it life and find a set of parents who cannot conceive & make a happy family?

The only logic and rational thing they ever quote is science that they themselves did not participate in. What about the ideas and dreams that these scientists had to explore these new concepts and real truth about our world.
Here is some logic...Out of the million people that have had out of body explorations and near death experience....how many are crazy?

I mean we women did not trade on set of duties for another, We still care for the children, the home, and now we must work too. I for one would prefer if I could afford to be a stay at home wife and mother. I like doors opened for me, heavy packages carried for me, and all the deference that men in the South still show ladies.

Logic would tell you 1 + 1 = 2 . Right?

Well...It has been proven that 1+1 in some cases can be equivalent to 3.

See: In 1 + 1 you can take away the horizontal line on the plus sign and their is 3 different ones!!!

And everyone knows that 3 of the integer 1 is 3!!! But that's not it! If you don't believe that 1 + 1= 3 then the horizontal line we took away from the plus sign will wack you repeatedly on the head and cause you great pain in the hands of an invisible man..!


This about equivalent to some of the 'provings' of the bible I have heard christians preach to people but it is just dressed up in the costume of something no1 knows the answer to: what happens after death. Sadly, that condition can make some people believe it.... :(. Hopefully some day the earth will heal of this kind of logic but I doubt it is close at hand...When do you think this type of logic will die?

1 Cor 11:6] For if a woman does not have her head veiled, she may as well have her hair cut off. But if it is shameful for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, then she should wear a veil.

Is it possible to prove that there is a God WITHOUT reference to the Bible? What arguments can people think of?
I ask this because everytime I mention the Bible, people seem to switch off, which makes any Christianity defence difficult.

Is it just because it's a rule cause they say so? Is there a reason it's more proper? Just 'cause that's how it's always been? Is it serious just a deep rooted tradition they defend for no reason besides some people a long time ago said that that's how it should be?

If that's what it is then when are the women finally going to try to put a stop to it? I mean, if you like skirts that's cool but isn't it a little condescending to say that you aren't aloud to wear pants? It just seems a little pointless and controlling to me.

So what is the root of this tradition besides that they just think that's how it should be?

Scientists have just found another missing link, a fish with muscular fins, gills AND lungs to breathe oxygen. Dozens of these creatures have been found and carbon dated to exactly the right time when that sort of creature ought to have existed.
There are literally hundreds of thousands of fossil records going back years all carbon-dated in a definite evolutionary timeline.

Are anti-evolutionists just ignoring the evidence or do they just believe it's one gigantic conspiracy?

Would the religious world decorate their churches and their homes and their bodies with gun symbols, if Jesus had been shot instead? Or would there be another symbol entirely for Christianity?

Christianity is one of the main regular religions on Earth, yet Christians are not numerous in this yahoo-section.

Is it because there are much more non-christians? Why?

Is it possible that someone has the same understanding of the human being as Jesus has? I have met many so called "Christians" which are far away from the true love. I think Christianity is the best philoshophy of the human culture but do we really understand it as we should?
