Thou shalt not take a slave since isn't that the whole reason that Moses went to the mountain in the first place. Don't you think it was a good time to add that to the list? If it wasn't why not? My thoughts is because if it were written there would be no more Kings and Queens and well the world would be all different now wouldn't it?

Is it because they have learned the dangers of religion? Am I being ignorant or disrespectful in asking this question?

Do you think intelligent design should be taught alongside evolution is schools? Should it be taught in science classes, strictly in humanities/religious classes, or not at all? Or do you think teachers should simply suggest that a creator could have POSSIBLY started the process of evolution, and leave ID out of it? I am talking about elementary/high schools, not universities.

In Proverbs 6:16 – 19, it is stated that "There are seven things that the Lord hates and cannot tolerate" (quotes from 'Today's English Version' translation of the Bible). These are:

A proud look
a lying tongue
hands that kill innocent people
a mind that thinks up wicked plans
feet that hurry off to do evil
a witness who tells one lie after another
and someone who stirs up trouble among friends.
While there are seven of them, these sins are significantly different in outward appearence from "The Seven Deadly Sins" list that arose later. The only sin among these which is clearly on both lists is Pride. "Hands that kill innocent people" may be taken to refer to Wrath.

In America most people are Christian yet every single one of them is a sinner. Preachers disagree with parts of the bible so they all choose to ignore them, so by ignoring the writings of god you are commiting a sin. Like for instance if you shave your head or trim your side burns you are denying god. If a child curses his parents he or she must be put to death. All Christains are sinners and God doesn't even exist anyway. If I could type for a few days straight to explain my proof of science and anti-creationism I would. But I'm not a very good typer. But why do people call themselves Christains when all they do is sentence themselves to hell?

The historical proof of humanity was very different than today, 2007, and yet no one can get behind this fact. There was only one source of power, muscle of human or animal. No one got paid to sit and think for 8 hours, there was to much to DO. There was no food preservation as there is today, no freezers or vacuum sealing devices. Medical care was beyond basic.
Yet everyone thinks that Moses used GPS to find the promised land. Marriage was rarely for love, but for truces and dealings for land.
Details of who married Cain will really help in todays world?
Refocus your concern on todays humanity, and how we do not get along as we should. None of the religions teach violence, yet we still enjoy killing, and hurting others.
All of todays teachers/leaders of all the faiths mainstream or fringe want less gossip and ankle nipping (well back stabbing to be honest) - and more ground work in the trenches type gatherings/events, that help people.
HA, I held this rant too long! LOL
Peace

With advances in technology and especially artificial intelligence how much longer can religion as we know it now survive?
It seems the big topics at hand now, at least in American Christian society, are stem cell research, cloning, abortion, death penalty, gay marriage, and of course a few other things.
How long can Christianity hold high public opinion with these concerns to the religion growing away from their favor?

Next what happens about the debate of whether or not AI has a soul? Where does the soul live? If you replace a living, naturally born human piece by piece with microchips and metal parts until 100% conversion where is the soul?

This is just an example I am trying to use to portray my belief that as civilization advances religion will be left behind due to being unable to answer such question or have a reasonable explanation.
What are your opinions?

I think Self-Worth is one of mankind's deepest needs and for many, (or perhaps all) is a lifelong journey. As life moves on we begin to realize more and more exactly what our Self-Worth is.

Now, I am not a psychology expert, but could Self-Worth be equated with Self-Actualization as Abraham Maslow's Heiarchy of Needs?

If god wants everyone to believe in him then how come there are people who have never heard of christianity? Does god not want them? I mean really, there are places in this world where nobody has heard of christianity. So.. if god gives everyone a "choice" as to believe in him or not, why has he forgotten these people? Christians say that anyone who does not accpet Christ goes to hell. Do people deserve to go to hell even though they have never had a CHANCE to believe in christianity? And since christians think god created the human race, why would he even bother creating people destined for hell?
