..park, with refreshing fountains, cool shade from trees and a peace.........that was suddenly shattered by a group of skateboarding, motorbiking, mayhem loving hooligans, who now fly around whooping it up? Spray painted tags cover the concrete and benches, beer cans and bottles are littered around, while the smoke of some pungent herb is permanent.

If you are taking the name God too serious. I'm sorry I should have been more specific. All higher beings will that get you off the christian God? The point was suppose to make you think about how you treat others. The bible state "Judge not least ye be Judged" Hello!! what makes you think my god and yours are not the same just different names and systems do you really believe that any God would not see the need for diversity in all things including religion. All people have the right to worship however they want and "God" gave us that ability and right if you truly believe that God will condem you for not following a specific religious group then you need to have more faith in a true and just God. You spend to much time condeming instead of loving and forgiving. Those who choose not to believe in any god thats ok too I hope you find a path that will suit you and will make you happy
Blessed Be to All no matter what faith you are

Is there any logical argument that suggests that fate exists? LOGICAL arguments should not include any references to God. Do not make quote random phrases from the bible. Passages from the bible are highly debatable at best.

It really doesn't make sense to defend a debatable topic like the existence of fate with an even more debatable topic like the existence of god.

Genisis says the ground is cursed. Lao Tzu argues the earth cannot be improved and I tend to agree.

What, other than humanity, is wrong with the Earth?

A PRAYER
FOR WORLD PEACE
(Prayer for World Peace, 1978)
Lord, we pray for the power to be gentle;
the strength to be forgiving;
the patience to be understanding;
and the endurance to accept the consequences
of holding to what we believe to be right.

May we put our trust in the power of good to overcome evil
and the power of love to overcome hatred.

We pray for the vision to see and the faith to believe
in a world emancipated from violence,
a new world where fear shall no longer lead men to commit injustice,
nor selfishness make them bring suffering to others.

Help us to devote our whole life and thought and energy
to the task of making peace,
praying always for the inspiration and the power
to fulfill the destiny for which we and all men were created.

Do you like this prayer or do you have a favourite prayer?

Tis' the season for retail company's to make money, did you know 70% of all Major retail stores' profits are aquired around the Holidays. Its funny to see people going through stress, spending money they dont even have, putting themselves in finincial debt, neighbors competing to see who can waste the most electricity on Christmas decorations. Its insane, I bet a majority of kids don't even know what the true meaning of x-mas is. I know when i was a kid christmas meant toys toys toys! I even saw people with huge blown up turkeys in their front lawn last month, not knowing the pilgrams back-stabbed the Natives and wiped them out!? It just goes to show you how most Americans just accept what they've been taught society is "supposed" to do with NO QUESTIONS ASKED while the rich get richer and the MIDDLE-CLASS gets poorer. God bless america!

Do you support assisted suicide to those who choose to die a dignified and pain free death? I'm not talking about people who are depressed. I mean for those of us who are basically at the end of meaningful life. I see no nobility in suffering to death when the end can come peacefully and painlessly. What do you think? Please...I'm asking ONLY my fellow agnostic/atheists!

I'm going to become someones Godmother in february, but i don't want to go for the classic silver tooth holders and stuff, because everyone else will be getting them and at the end of the day they just get shoved in a cupboard. So does anyone have any ideas? The little girl in question will be 7 months old in february.

If sexual orientation is really a choice, shouldn't we all have the ability to choose another for one day? or one minute? and then choose to go back.
Could you choose to become attracted to your same sex?

((I apologize if this seems unrelated to religion and spirituality, but I believe it is due to the overwhelming discrimination involved))

I'm familiar with the reasons for male circumcision in the Jewish religion. It was required as a physical sign of the covenant between them and God, and the "operation" did not interfere with regular sexual intercourse. Women, however, were never supposed to be circumcised. Such a procedure would only create misery. If this is done in the Muslim faith, why is it done?

As we all known religion is a very contraversial subject. A lot of people don't want to consider they might be wrong, I know I don't have all the answers (no one does) and as such I'm open to the possibility I could be wrong. (I'm atheist by the way).

Lots of people use religion as a crutch to help them through difficult times or to have something to look forward to after life.

So my question is this: if your beliefs could be proven wrong without a shadow of a doubt, would you want to know?
