In many classrooms things such as Valentine's day are often celebrated. How can teachers help those students who do not celebrate such things? What are some of the other things that you have problems with if you are the parent of a student with such beliefs? Are there any other religions that have beliefs that may conflict with regular school practices. I don't want to offend anyone I just want to know.

Some fundie told me about this MIRACLE guy who died in a car wreck, was dead 20 minutes and spent time in Heaven with Jesus, who sent him back to earth to spread the Gospel. He claims that his lower face was "completely destroyed", resulting in his jaw and vocal cords being removed - yet he talks and sings to this day!!!

Amazingly, in his photographs, he still has a complete face with NO evidence of a catastrophic vehicle accident, and only a few slight scars... See his Website here: http://www.garywoodministries.com/

Do people actually believe this stuff? Ok, thats rhetorical, because obviously they do... BUT WHY ON EARTH WOULD YOU BELEIVE THIS????
I cant even find this guy listed on the Vaticans list of documented miracles - so the CHURCH doesnt even believe his claims.... But he is doing a great job parting beleivers with their hard earned money.... Im compoletely dumbfounded that people can actually beleive this without even questioning him....

Has anyone considered why the Bible is so one sided?
Was anything recorded from Lucifer's point of view?
Am I the only person who thinks that maybe God is insane and Lucifer was/is only trying to help us; God created everything - good and evil - so why has Lucifer become God's scapegoat?

This is open for all religions and belief systems - whether this is going to church, temple, praying, reading sacred text, meditating...whatever.

Do you find that minor emergencies often come up? Any guesses why? What do you do to overcome them and worship anyway?

Thanks

OK well this is mainly in refference to all of the statements and comments that i see about Halloween. Are people really incapabble of doing any actual research on the origins of a holiday before they make uninformed and therefore false statements?

or can people only copy what they are told by other people that have also not done any real research?

have humans become such sheep that they are incapable of individual thought, and personell growth and learning?

how many of the people on this board that are not Pagan, Wiccan,
or Athiest/Agnostic actually know the origins of the holiday Halloween and why Halloween is a CHRISTIAN Holiday?

i am not trying to leave my Pagan brothers and sisters out i am just wondering if anyone else is capcble of individual thought. and if anyone has the ability or desire to learn anything other than what they are simply told by religious figures and the shows and movies that popular media puts out.

OK, I know it doesnt actually exist, but where would it have been located if it had ?. Obviously if it was in telescop-ic range then we could have noticed it by now.... so it would therefore be in a galaxy far far away. In which case how many millions of light years would it take for a soul to reach it from this planet?. Or do souls travel faster than the speed of light ?.
And if its milions of light years away from here then the odds are it could be just a few miles from another planet having animals so they would arrive earlier?.

Every time there is some statistic about how Christians have the highest teenage pregnancies, divorce rates, jail terms, abortions, std's, shorter life expectancy, unhealthier countries, etc. this turns into "well, they are not real Christians." Or is it that once you made a mistake you automatically stop being a Christian? I don't get it. Do Christians ever make mistakes at all? Look honestly into your family or church people, is there not one --true-- Christian that maybe had a teenage pregnancy, was in jail, or maybe even had a divorce? This doesn't make sense. I have an Aunt who is Christian that has had a divorce. I have an Uncle that's a catholic who had a DUI. And if you met them, there is no way you could even begin to try to justify saying they are "not real Christian;" they make mistakes like you and me. You're supposed to be "sinners," so why are you in such hypocritical denial?

Not attacking. Really want to know from atheists. Do atheists consider that their lack of belief in God is a religion? If you do not believe in God then can you believe that man has a spirit? So what about atheism leads to "spirituality"? I am not saying that atheists can't think on a deeper intimate level but is it "religion and spirituality"? What's spirituality to you?

That is what really surprised me with this forum. I expected to see postings from people with varying beliefs on who God is and how we relate to Him. I was either naive or did not understand that atheism is actually a religion and a confirmation of a spirit of some kind. Or do you just monitor this forum because you deny religion and spirituality.

Don't get upset. I'm not saying you shouldn't post hear. Just saying I was surprised and would like a serious atheist (not angry) to help me understand your views on whether or not you view atheism as a religion and spiritual journey.

Galileo was under house arrest during the last years of his life for his theories about the planets and our place in the cosmos. He was eventually proven correct.
Many religious groups because of his theories and views on religion censored Einstein.
The point is that throughout history scientist and their theories have been censored by religious groups, and time and again science have prevailed. How is the current debate about evolution any different?
