is it possible for EVERYONE to be happy at the same time?
i mean the christians want to pagans to convert.
and the pagans want the christians to leave them alone.
and the atheists want the theists to open their eye's and see the truth (which i totally get ^_^)
and allot of people dont want the atheists to even be in the R&S section (and that is just wrong)
so is it possible for everyone to be happy at the same time???

No, but a happy medium that everyone can live with is well worth striving for.

No it isn't possible to please everybody all of the time. No matter what you do not everybody is gonna be happy. Because even if you do make one group happy you end up being miserable simply because you aren't truly happy. I feel that people should do what makes thme happy. I also feel that people should follow their hearts and their minds and only do something when their heart and minbd are truly into it otherwise what they are doing is useless and a complete and utter waste of time and energy.

Um, honestly? No. Certainly not on the basis of what you listed in your question!
At least not all at the same time!
But then, isn't that just life? Whatever your choices, lifestyle or beliefs there's going to be someone that disagrees. And that is likely to make either you or them unhappy I'm afraid.
Which doesn't stop each of us being happy individually thank goodness!

I am not sure what you mean to ask, but I don't think it is possible, or necessary, for everyone to be happy. The struggle to bring balance to this life is part of the fascination of religion in the first place. That being said, I do believe that religious tolerance is in order. I do not believe in forcing my beliefs on other people to satisfy my religious calling. I see this as selfish and unrealistic. In the end, pushing someone to convert has the opposite effect-- it repels them even more.
You can't please everyone, but you can please yourself, without being selfish about it.

It is a mistake to believe that we cannot be happy if Pagans do not convert etc. I have many friends from different faiths. But if someone asks me a question about my faith, I will not risk my eternal destiny for a common peace and deny what Jesus is about...just to please a friend.
If I respect their free will, I think I can ask the same favor in return...even if it includes that I believe hell and heaven and they do not. Remember, I believe that we have the choice. So I am not condemning anyone to hell. : )

Don't know.
Is EveryBody HappY!
Happyness depends on the comfort of the five physical senses!
It isn't really a spiritual thing.
Joy, comes from the spiritman and is spiritual.

It's impossible I am afraid. If everyone just respected each others beliefs than maybe. But as long as you have people out their who insist that others believe as they do and set out to try and change people...you will have conflict.

Yes but, what makes them all happy at the same time is unknown to some. They would not know they were happy untill they were.

I'm happy. I know I can't convert anyone and I know that everyone is entitled to their own opinions. It's no big deal.
May God Bless you.
