...between deciding it's unacceptable for you (and your children) and deciding that it's unacceptable for others (and their children)?

So many social issues--same-sex marriage, abortion, the books and classes allowed in school--come down to whether other people are okay with it. And they are so controversial because people have different standards. So I wonder, where are yours? Where can you just decide it's not for you, and where do you have to step in and do something about the thing you disapprove of?

This is for everybody, of all and no religions.

why is it that when you tell someone there are 400million stars in the sky, they believe you, but when you tell them a bench is wet, they have to touch it and make sure?

Faith is often defined as trust, and can be characterized by joy in response to God's gifts. Yet a person with clinical depression or anxiety may have problems experiencing such joy or letting go and trusting God. How might Christians minister to those with mental illness?

I'm not sure about the whole big bang theory, but I would like to know one thing....if your 'god' created this earth and all that exists, where the he!! did he/she come from? And did your 'god' create all the other planets too? I'm pretty well read on the bible as it was shoved down my throat the majority of my life and I do not recall anything on that...

Should I go over to the "History" Q. and A. and write really bad questions in which I claim to know more about mathematics than the entire community of working mathematicians? How would that be different from what this guy did when he asked this ridiculous question about evolution here in R. and S.?

appologies for my previous rant about fundamental Christians
I know not all are like the ones I was going on about

it just hurt a little to be called Satans helper
which is odd considering I don't believe in Satan
but it was the thought of people thinking these things about me

but I wont give in , they wont make me give in
I had my little cry and some coffee

how do you all stay strong when things are said about you ?
what gets you by ?

I have an uncle that is gay, and I was wondering, is he really is going to go to hell for that? Does it say that in the bible? Also, he says that he can't help it because God made him that way but I don't think that could be true because God wouldn't make someone gay and then send them to hell for it, would he? I'm just a little confused...

I once met an orthodox Rabbi (curly locks, black outfit, and hat torah in pocket) from New York. He clarified to me that according to Talmudic law and the teachings of the holy torah the state of Isreal is an illegal and unlawful becuase the state of Israel should only be built by the instruction of the awaited messiah. He said that Israel is definitely not built on religion but a secular one and those who run it are masonic mafia types and definitely not practicing Jews. He ended by blowing me away saying that that land should only be recognized as Palestine and that the oppression must stop and the Jews must leave remaining in exile until the coming of the messiah.

I'm interested in your take on this O sons of Jacob???

I am 18 and I have never had a boyfriend, not even a first kiss and I'm OK with that because I could wait a thousand years fot "Mr. Right" I wouldn't date just because of a handsome face and a nice body with a 6 pack.
I hate going to the club and going outside, I'd rather stay at home with my family and if I go out I only enjoy it if it is with my younger brother or my mother; probably in a few ocations with cousins... rarely. I don't have friends in college, I'm always by myself because I try to focus as much as I can. All my friends (I'm talking about like 10 people) are in my country, 1 in NY and 2 in MA (I live in MD). I don't like reggaeton music (I'm dominican.. kind of a music stereotype of dominican girls) and I hate it! I preffer to listen romantic ballads and some pop and rock in english or spanish. I don't like to dance, be in places with lots of people and I am not a big fan of speaking english with other hispanics that knows 100% spanish but for some reason keeps....

What is your theory as to why there are none of these? I often hear people saying that suicide bombers are not a symptom of religion, but of politics, etc...

Why do you think politics haven't coerced any atheists into becoming suicide bombers?

"This past Memorial Day, the religious right’s $27 million “Creation Museum” – an institution dedicated to promoting the lie that science supports the notion of a 6,000-year-old Earth – finally opened its doors.

Over the last few weeks nearly 25,000 concerned Americans have joined our effort and signed our petitions condemning the museum’s blatant attempt to push bad science and deceive children, including 5,000 educators from all 50 states.

Last Monday, DefCon took our message directly to the “Museum” and the organization behind the anti-science campaign, Answers in Genesis. As the first public visitors walked through the doors, a plane flew over head carrying a banner that read, “DEFCON SAYS THOU SHALT NOT LIE.”

Over the last few weeks DefCon’s effort has garnered national media attention, shining a light on the bunk science that AiG had hoped to disguise with their $27 million “Museum.”
