....yet it seems like eveything on the internet "published" appears to be a load of ****. I was just interested in the subject because it seemed very abstract and random, and when I started lookign around on the internet it seems that all the information on the internet is written by crazy people who are trying to blame there faults and insecurities on something that isn't real. Yet they embrace the concept so readily, so that they can feel superior to others, and feel as if that is the reason for their non-belonging to society, and loneliness.

Kind of dissapointing, sounded like a cool concept, only to find out its full of wackos like all other religions.

LOL should of known, let play chi ball catch , lol, WTF....

Would it be good for religion or bad? Would the alien's religious beliefs influence our religions? Would the aliens necessarily have a religion? How would your religious beliefs change if you knew that there were extraterrestrials? Would the major religions of the world change their doctrines to include aliens? (for example maybe saying Jesus died for the aliens too) Any thoughts...?

How do you become hot and onfire for God? Any suggestions? How do you develop a passion to expand His Kingdom and develop sensitivity for the lost and poor and such an intense desire to be intimate for God?

Why does he ignore me and let me suffer when I pray daily? Is it because I am not tall, or is it because I have black hair, or is it because I like to watch TV or be on the computer? Plz tell me why so I can fix it or else I will just finish tying this slipknot and ask him myself.

the fact that Jesus will f*ck them up. I mean, come on everyone knows that Jesus is coming back, and when he does, he's going to beat every non-believer with a bike chain. Jesus ain't no joke! He'll kick your teeth down your effing mouth. Jesus ain't scared of the police either. Non-believers better watch yourselves Jesus is coming to whoop some as$. He'll take a busted beer bottle and cut some dumb mo-f*ckers!

I was in my early 30's when I saw the light of atheism. Prior to that I was a lutheran.

As a father, I have taken a "laid-back" attitude toward religion to allow my children to come to their own conclusions. However, my moral base came from my early exposure to christian teachings.

I am curious what "life-long" atheists have used as the basis for their morals

I'm sure that I'll have some christians will also answer this question. I would be curious about your positions as well, just don't be a wise guy and say something pithy like "Atheists have morals??"

Seriously, they don't do that. It's the Jews conspiring with George Bush. It HAS to be, they even said so. There is no such thing as a Musilm suicide bomber, or a Muslim hijacker. Every atrocity commited by a Muslim is really just a vast conspiracy to blame Muslims for everything! RIGHT?

I am a Christian, and have been one for my whole life. My questions is for Muslims. Your faith is based on "peace." I know that almost 99% of Muslims completely do not agree with the acts of terrorism being committed by their people. They claim that most people are not like that and that most Muslims are peaceful people. However, what I don't understand is that these normal, peaceful people are still reading the Quran which states to "kill the infidels," (literally, the Quran in Surah 9:5 states that all Muslims must fight and slay the pagans...in this case, meaning Christians, Jews, what have you.) I don't understand what type of God would condone hate and killing. Please clarify.

All school managers care about is league table and have no interest in actually educating kids for what they are about to embark on............ adult life. Consequently they leave school not knowing what to do and so are easy prey to those already besotted by religious rantings who are on the look out for other people to be brainwashed before they realise the true meaning of life - which doesnt involve following old storybooks as a foundation

I change $120 per hour. How can your pet refute me? Woof, Woof, Meow, or Pretty birdie. Unless you have a plant from The Little Shop of Horrors. I am pretty safe there as well.

“(Muhammad) EVIL omen is ONLY in three: a horse, a WOMAN and a house."” http://www.islamicity.com/mosque/sunnah/bukhari/071.sbt.html#007.071.666

Since Muhammad's mother was also a woman, obviously he believed he own mother was an evil omen.

Notice how this verse lists the three most important properties of a muslim man: the horse, house, and woman. Muhammad must have been a lunatic...imagining evil forces inside his house and horse. Any word that didnt please him, from his islamic property (we call them 'woman'), was an attack from shaytan, and evil spirit.

I cant imagine how truely pathetic and loathesome Muhammad was...people...if these words sound harsh, that only means you havent studied this animal.

When are people going to realize that there is only ONE God, you can call him Allah or God or Supreme allmighy. All his books had the same message..infact they were all sequels to one another..some books have now been changed by man to suit his needs. There are extremists in every religion but generalizing a religion to be better than the other or worse than the other is not what God wants us to do....

I didn't ask for their opinions, I am also respectful to their religious views. But for some reason, sometimes when I tell someone I get the "Well, you're going to Hell." speech. Also, how can I drop the hint to a few friends that I DON'T want to go to church with them when they ask repetedly and they already know my choice of religion?

Psychic Reading. You are not where you want to be financially in your life at this point. You feel pulled in a lot of directions.People don't completely understand you.

Talking to the dead. I am getting a short name 3 or 4 letters starting with a B, a J, or an M. Once you feed me their name and give me some visual cues your loved one will no longer mumble their name and speak in perfect English.I will speak in many Vague references. My misses will be cut to the editing room floor.
