Religion & Spirituality - 20 November 2006

Most people answered that it would be impolite to send a Christmas card to a Jew, Muslim, or Atheist: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Au3mPSYgjXINV6fXtmKZbrPsy6IX?qid=20061118215741AAkaRj7

Wouldn't it be just as impolite to wish them a "Merry Christmas" in person?

Thank you for your input.

Ok, I'm a Druid and answer a lot of questions in the Religion and Spirituality section. And lately I see fellow Druids and Wiccans asking questions wanting people to help them further their religion. People come in and instead of answering the question, attack them with comments like "Burn the witch" or "Burn in hell" or "You have no place here" and even "You're religion is a fake." But yet if a Christian or Catholic or Lutheran were to post a question asking for help in their own religion, people are expected to support and answer honestly and fairly. I say if you can't tolerate the fact that some people don't believe in your religion, don't answer their questions, or find a site that is specifically for your religion. This is a forum open to any and all beliefs, whether or not some people think Y! Answers should ban those that aren't Christian, Catholic, or whatever. I'm a Druid, I'm proud to be one, and I'm a part of this forum, so get used to Druids, Wiccans, and Pagans being here.

God is in everyone,go back in the times God created Adam,He made an image out of himself and then he breath in Adam and gave him life.Think about all the living things on Earth,without air they would be all dead.So every single things you do the Father in Heaven would knows.

i asked this because im a christian and i have friends with various back grounds and religion one of the is a witch but prefers to be called a wicca(i mess with her alot about that) and when some people find out i talk to her they call me a fake christian or poser. But im not, its just that i dont judge people because of what they r but who they r on the inside. i dont really like to sterotype. we each have the will and power to be who we want and in my opinion no one should judge or sterotype

It seems that they take their morality seriously, but are unwilling to confirm it through analysis. What is going on there?

I've seen some abortion questions on here before, and it always seems that the religious people are pro-life and the non-religious are pro-choice. As a pro-choice agnostic, I fall into this trend. I just want to know who is out there that goes against the norm and what the reasons are for their position.

Why do people, especially in the spiritual category, always ask a question then choose a best answer that fits their beliefs and their train of thought. I mean, shouldn't they be looking for the truth and not be picking what is the best answer closest to what they believe? I know that they believe that it is the right thing, but I've looked at some of the best answers and there isn't any "proof" I guess you could say of what they are saying. Then in the commnet place it'll say something like, yea, that's what I believe too. Is this a confusing question? Cause I know it is hard to explain.

that was important, let me ask if it would have been o.k. to throw or smear grape juice on the door? Would that have done the trick? Or how about if they figured they would just use a symbol for the blood and use wine?

Islamic terrorism has nothing to do with poverty. The Muslim terrorists are all educated and come from middle class families. Osama Bin Laden’s inheritance was a quarter of a billion dollars. His lieutenants are doctors and engineers. This claim that Muslims become terrorists because of poverty is a myth propagated by the leftists who see the solution to every problem in social engineering – take the money from the rich and make everyone equally poor. This is their panacea.

Muslim terrorists are motivated by their religious belief. One of the terrorists of London bombing (Mohammad Sidique Khan) left a tape in which he said:

I and thousands like me are forsaking everything for what we believe. Our drive and motivation doesn't come from tangible commodities that this world has to offer. Our religion is Islam, obedience to the one true God and following the footsteps of the final prophet. (This is the truth coming from the mouth of the horse.)

I think that life is GOOD without God-Life is what YOU make of it..not what you think GOD makes of it-The Bible only convinces me that you follow an insane God-or the people that created IT! Why else would he hold this thing cAlled hell to your head as though a gun that says "Do it my way or BURN"! Hell my parents couldn't even get me to see the world THEIR way-but all they gave me was a spanking-"I LOVE THEM DEARLY" but your God would burn me and call me a sinner and say I'm EVIL-GET A LIFE you follower of faiths that hold NOTHING-Your god is a FRAUD and you follow nothing more than words written by men that tried to scare their slaves into obediance!

And Hitler and some party members said there is no God. At the time they were right. Because I AM=angel of the LORD=God
so
I AM=I AIVI sealed together=iam=Iarri cut and sealed together
God=CuTOD=CuTnucil
if of=o+f=15+6=21=2+1=3
then ultimately
of=named within (because both sum to 3)
angel of the LORD=angel named within the LORD

so God has a CuTnucil is called TODD or TOD or LArry or larri and appears sealed together as IV I ie IIII I.

all those descriptions fit Me.

your insanely funny LORD GOD part-german Lordly superbeing. Also part oriental conqueror of europe. so both Germans and oreintals conquered europe circa 1500's. Thus i come from the very best bloodlines.

So NAZI's lost cause they didn't allow for God to be born in the future circa I7.9 68. But had He been born in germany not canada He would have probably fought alongside germans as well.

Actually, I want to know why you continue to agree with the Government on the Drug War. The bible makes no explicit reference to abstinence from drugs (of course, I don't know it by rote, so I might be wrong.), and even though the bible says to obey the laws of the land, why do so many of your stripes insist on governmental enforcement of your PERSONAL beliefs. (Again, I do not know for sure if drug use is censured in the Bible, but I don't think it is.) Yet, many of you are supposedly conservative, which would imply that you believe in personal responsibility and lack of government intrusion into private lives.

If the government said that, say, Baptism is bad for no good reason (like it did with drugs) and the people must be "protected from themselves" or "give them back their self-respect" (I have great self respect, and I love to take opioid painkillers, which obviously do not make me stupid in any way.) there would be another revolution, or at least a guerilla war.

Why?

from their home for an hour? I really don't think so. I think it is a big excuse to do whatever the heck they want to do and it definitly does not include worshipping God. What do you think?
