How would you react if you saw a person yelling at the top of his lungs that Gods do not exist? I constantly see Christian preachers in the streets of Big cities yelling out bible verses. What kind of reaction do you think an Atheist would get if they did the same thing but with a reverse message?

We go on and on, being religious....
but we forget we have been quite intolerent of other religions than our own? why is that? arent we supposed to treat everyone equally? because i was tought that everyone is equal in the eyes of the lord and savior...was i tought wrong?

i want to know why a group of people who dont worship what we worship, suddenly become "non-belivers"....true they dont believe in our god...but they believe in their god (i see a thing here.....the romans might have pondered the same thing when christianity was emerging)

AND why is everyone elses religion automatically wrong, and ours is right?

hinduisim is considered the oldest still practiced religion to this day...older that christianity....could it no t be the true religion.....
or greek religion
or roman?

i believe in our god the lord and savior maker of the heaven and earth and the father almighty....
but i just want to hear some opnions...

what are your views on abortion?

mine: once it's got a brain, it's a living being. up until that point though, it's just a bundle of cells and therefore, it's not possible to "harm" it. oh, and abortion as birth control (as in, if you're too stupid to use a condom) is never ok, imo.

A Theist is defind as being theism in the Yahoo on line dictionary. and theism is defined as : Belief in the existence of a god or gods, especially belief in a personal God as creator and ruler of the world.

An atheist as a noun or name is defined as One who disbelieves or denies the existence of God or gods.

In this section these are many who say they are Atheists who take the position that there is no god. Same spelling and same letters for A theist and an Atheist. The only difference is the blank space.

I just wonder why anyone would put so much importance on the blank space. So much in fact that it is in the opposite position. Is if a fact that blank spaces do say a lot more than words themselves in the English language? Maybe that blank space represents great wisdom in ones view. Now how can one prove that fact?

If this be true, should not the balnk spaces be studied more? Maybe more should just say blank spaces in their words and spend more time in thought?

Why do people worship a God who would kill millions who do not follow him, with floods or fire rained down from above, but those same people will cry ‘Madman’ when a country's leader eliminates millions when it's apart of their plan?

Is it possible that you are encouraged to bear your testimony so that you can convince yourself of the truths you claim? Is there really a purpose or benefit for other people to hear it (Other than to feel inadequate because obviously theirs is not as strong as yours)?

if u cant give answer you have no right to say that there is no life beyond death because you are neither follower of science nor god.

Remember Hitler? the last time I checked that he was raised a Catholic, then he became an Atheist, this goes for the Nazis too, they all became Atheists. Atheism is way bloodier than the history of Islam and Christianity.

You guys (Atheists) killed millions of millions pf people, but you claim to peaceful and loving, yeah right. Who's going to be your new killer leader today? don't blame Christians for the deaths of the innocent Jews, you know who to blame really, which is YOU!

So I was thinking, is all Christian music really Christian? Can we associate musical genres such as rock, punk, ska, metal, r&b, and even pop with Christianity?
What do u guys think?

I recently asked a question in the marriage section of Yahoo Answers about husbands cheating on their wives (mine in particular). I received an e-mail from a guy stating that men "are driven to impregnate as many women as possible in their lifetime". He also stated that men are "just that way" and I should just "get over it". This guy that e-mailed me also says that the urge to sleep with lots of women is ingrained into the male DNA and that God created men that way to preserve the species (mankind). I just wanted to put this question to the R&S folks and the men in particular. Do you agree with this? What are your thoughts on this? Everyone is welcome to answer.

Then was Hitler wrong in killing the Jews when he thought it was the right thing to do?

Please explain.

I don't believe the Bible answers this question. I would like for you to give me your opinion, and why you believe or don't believe your concept. Please no anti-religious intolerance here or snide comments.

I'm sure it's done with the best of intentions which is what the roadway to Hell is paved with.

But to sacrifice ones own soul to possibly save another is the way around all sins isn't it?

This seems to be a pandora's box.

i love God. i love to study the bible, and read all kinds of commentary and the like, but usually, i don't like going to church. i do it anyway, but i just don't get much out of it. it's not a matter of finding a new church either. been there, done that, got the t-shirt. i think it has something to do with the fact that i wasn't always the nicest or most moral guy in the world, and i feel a bit hypocritical when i go. i always think most church-folk were raised in the church, and have been ''good'' all their lives. that's just not the way life has been for me, so i somehow feel like i will be judged by the members if they ever found out who i used to be. i feel like there are a lot of people who go to church to be seen by others, so they can say ''look how good i am.'' does anyone else feel this way? what can you do about it?

Fundamentalism -noun: strict adherence to any set of basic ideas or principles.

Fundamentalist -noun: a supporter of fundamentalism.

And if such a person were to identify themselves as that, would that invite them to be labeled as "militant", as the fundalmentalist Christian sometimes is?

And if such a strict adherence existed, would that not implicate a closed mind, and an inability to adequately survey the progression of science if it should present evidence, data, and testable models, that are contrary to their basic ideas or principles?
