Really, do these people actually have brains to think for themselves or are they like a computer that quotes whatever they are told???

You ask a valid question.
Not all non-believers who post to this Forum are hate-mongers. Likewise, some self-professed Christians seem to have wandered away from the “love thy neighbor” reservation judging by some of their written words. I will confine my remarks below only to those in both camps that act badly.
For both of these types of persons, it is interesting and sad to see how some persons will behave when hiding behind the anonymity of the computer. As an "old guy" I have occasionally acted irresponsibly in my youth, so I can relate, but only up to a point. I suspect that these persons would be truly ashamed if they knew their parents, husband, wife, children, etc., learned of some of the things they write herein. If their loved ones have departed this earth they may even be looking down on these persons from above and weeping at their actions. Clearly they do their loved ones a disservice and dishonor them with such behavior.
In answer to your question, I would argue that Christians and non-believers are just like other folks; some are overly sensitive, insensitive, kind of spirit or not easily ruffled. In short, we are all imperfect people in an imperfect world just trying to get through the day. I believe charity of spirit is the most important quality one should strive to obtain. Such a benevolent goodwill toward or love of humanity will enable a person to peacefully co-exist with everyone and make this imperfect world just a little bit more tolerable. We all have our inherent biases and flaws, but there is no reason we cannot strive to be better, no matter what our personal circumstances may be.

extremely, do i extremely could remind you of the *real* reason R&S exists? Please seem to the factors of the website the place the subsidized hyperlinks are. QED. Yahoo set up Y!A to permit people to interchange questions and solutions to assemble eyeballs and get gross revenues. they do no longer care no remember if something is settled. see you later because it generates site visitors and persons come back and that they might fee in keeping with-view expenses for his or her classified ads, it is the real reason all of it extremely is right here. different than for that it is what we make of it. Yahoo does not close it any further than a casino might close down a craps table with a noisy crowd around it. that they had in basic terms ply each and every person with nutrition and beverages and comps and shop the completed ingredient going. the perfect thank you to get Yahoo to close this area is in basic terms to offer up coming right here. it is undemanding economics.

The answer to your question is "47".

Nope, haven't noticed that...
Coming from the Christian perspective, Christains are commanded to "always be prepared to give an aswer for the hope in your heart, Yet do it with courtesy and respect, keeping a good conscience, so that those who slander your good conduct in Christ may be put to shame when they accuse you."
The only thing missing from most of the Christian camp is:
1. Being Prepared
2. Answering the question
3. Courtesy
4. Respect

Excuse me. that is very rude. however I am sure that it does apply to some people. I do not act like a puppet and regurjitate everything that I am told. I look at the Bible and apply it to my life. In the Bible, it actually says to compare things to scripture to see what is correct, and I am usre that also applies to toher religions. it is good to keep your mind open. I love Christ and the Bible, and I am proud to be a christian. I am not a person who parrots quotes.
GOD BLESS YOU AND ALL AMERICA!!!!
K.K.

If what you have been taught is that you MUST believe a certain way or you are not true to your religion/belief, and yours is a belief in which you put a lot of control into your leaders, is there any wonder why some peoples default position is "I was told that ................".
It is typical of the herd mentality, you follow the one with the bell, just keep your head down and follow the bell.

Oh my God!!! How did you know I was a computer?!?
lol, seriously, I don't know, I've come across a few that didn't seemto give the questions much thought before blabbing, but that's how it is in other sections I guess.

Mostly because we all study the same book, the Bible, and all believe in the same God, and all have salvation through the same Son of God, so we all tend to believe alike. So even though it sounds like we are puppets we just happen to all believe that same thing. They call us Christians.

Not a computer sweetie. A computer is far more advanced. Many have no knowledge, nor do they care to obtain any knowledge, that is outside the scope of their bible. That is sad.

They ARE puppets, meaning they aren't real people. Who knows why they do it....maybe just to annoy the rest of us.
