Being nice to others? I ask because when I am pleasant to others, I mostly get negative feedback. Why? Be as honest as you may. I can take it.

(Sorry for the badly-typed title, but it wouldn't let me submit the question any other way)

This question goes out to the Atheists. Do you find it insulting when someone says "You're an Atheist? I'll pray for you," or "I hope you see the light someday?"

Rich church ladies in the rococola part of Atlanta (think Coca-Cola, kids) plucked me out of a cotton-mill village at age 15, in 1951, and sent me to a military school in the Jim Crow wilds of central Georgia. There, five mornings a week, a local member of the clergy would tell us all about god, say a prayer for which we were to stand, and, then, the band played "Dixie," at the end of which the grubby sons of South Georgia white bigots hooted and yelled and stamped their feet. I was an atheist at age 9, back in the mill village, but golly, those morning chapels sure as shoot reaffirmed by unbelief. I should not say it, no I shouldn't, but I will anyway: thank god.

Hadith and islamic books tells us a story. Once a man wanted the proof of Allah and asked prophet Muhammed (pbuh) to split the moon into two parts.Muhammed (pbuh) prayed to Allah and Allah granted his prayer and did so. The man was amazed by seeing that.Two parts joined back but the crack in middle remained.
one more source says that there is always a sound of athan (islamic call for prayer) is heard in the moon.
Then Neill armstrong, the first human being to step on the moon, found in the moon that there is crack in the middle of the moon and heard a kind of sound he couldn't understand. when he came back and he found that it was mentioned by islam before. and when he went to Egypt once, he heard athan and asked his muslim frnd what's that, that's the same sound that he heard in the moon. the frnd said that's athan. then he converted to Muslim. and then western media hid him behind media so that people can not know what islam is.

Now wht hav u got to say?
sensible answers please

Mormons and Jehovah Witnesses, while somehow insisting that they aren't Christian as well?.. It is sickening and disgusting really.

Remember in the story of adam Adam and Eve when God Banished the Serpent to Earth because he corrupted their minds with Higher knowledge and their minds were open to learnig and were curious of the stars and eventualy ( in my opinion) led to people wondering and asking wether there realy even was a god.

I am atheist, we have never been married. Could the father still get my son baptised as a catholic? Dont they need my permission...does the church consider my son born in sin? The father does not go to church.
I am just hoping that the father didnt sneak off and get my son baptised...and if he did try the church said no

I spent a number of years looking for Jesus and the reasons why I should believe in him. Over the few months I increased my intensity and search for him and can only conclude that Christanity isn't for me. The evidence as I have found it points to the fact that Jesus was a man who thought he was dying for everyone's sins and he managed to convince others that he was the chosen one. In closing I will explore a more spiritual based theme for my life as I have found Jesus to be nothing more than a man and the bible to be lacking in the truth department.

I knew a young lady who said she was an athiest and then said she would pray to sirens.
Would this be confusion on her part or is this something athiests do?
Just wanted to know.
She also thinks she is the ruler of the underground.
Is she confused or am I?

Did you know that Mcdonalds will make you fat? Kill you way before your time, and is using cows raised in the rainforest? Cutting down our precious resources so you can clog your arteries.

I'm thinking I'm going to filibuster in Washington to make fast-food illegal. I don't feel that people should have the choice about this because they don't seem to know what's good for them or our environment, so lets just see if we can get a few people to chose for you.

Before you actually answer this with all due seriousness. (an example that I truly don't believe for a minute. But illustates my point).

This corrilates with what it would be like if we truly started to allow for anti choice in many areas of our lives. Not just abortion.

Doesn't the words anti-choice just send chills down your spine?

i personally like catholics, while i am disagree on some minor things (and I am still trying to find out about what mary means to catholics - they insist that they don't pray to her but i am not entirely sure) i believe that they are indeed true believers in christ. I respect them taking the eucharist and their services very serious. i am however dishearted to hear about the corruption in the catholic church and the molestation of young children by catholic priests, but i hope this is in the minority and the pope is taking this very seriously. i know that their are also corruption in the protestant churches as well, and i hope that catholics and protestants address the corruption that is happening in our churches. just to sum it up, i have a very good impression of catholics themselves, although i am a little hesistant to address catholic priests and the church itself.

Peter (whom the Catholic church claims was the 1st Pope) was Jewish, not Catholic. Simon Peter had a wife (the Catholic Popes do not, they profess celibacy), “And when Jesus was come into Peter’s house, he saw his wife’s mother laid, and sick of a fever”. - Matt. 8:14, also read Mark 1:30 and Luke 4:38. The qualifications for a Bishop in the Word (the Bible) is: “A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach.” - 1 Tim. 3:2. Peter's name means “stone”, not “rock”. When Andrew brought Simon Peter to Jesus, Jesus beheld him and said:... “Thou art Simon the son of Jona: thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, A stone.” - John 1:42. Simon Peter was the “stone” and Jesus IS the “Rock”. Peter was never in Rome, he was the Apostle or teacher to the Jews in Jerusalem. Rome is in Italy, not Jerusalem. It was in Jerusalem where Jesus first began the body of Christ (Spiritual body, not a physical one), the Christian church, not a building made with hands, but hearts filled with love, for the church is the people, the believers in Christ.
