Why is it that the mind of wonder and question discouraged, when it should be embraced and free?

  • What to do at Six Flags Over Georgia?

    Well, I might be going to Six Flags (GA) and I was wondering, what rides should I ride? I'm not a total beginner; I've ridden Logapalooza, Wiley Coyote, and the Dahlonaga Mine Train, but what ride (for a beginning big roller coaster rider) should I ride first?

    P.S. Is there a beginner one that isn't TOO bad on my stomach?

  • Why is abortion wrong?

    The argument of pro-life people against abortion is, for the most part, religious, but what they forget is A) America's constitution WAS NOT BASED ON RELIGIOUS PRINCIPLES! And B) That they can't bring religious views into the matter because religion is not allowed to have any influence on the state! It's in the Constitution!

    Its actually better to allow abortion to be practiced officially by medically trained doctors than in an alleyway illegally by strangers whereas death can occur from a botched job, so its actually unbenifical to women's health to ban it.

    And speaking strictly scientific, 2/3 embryos are NATURALLY rejected by the uterus, and if those had souls, it seems a moral tragedy. There's your intelligent design!

    And this whole "right to life argument" is all about how the unborn have the "potential" to become humans. I have the "potential" to become a millionaire, but can I spend the money yet? So tell me, why is abortion wrong?

  • Could "ineffability" just be an excuse?

    They say that you can't put god to the test and that you shouldn't have to have proof of god to know he's real, could this just be an excuse to keep up their blind faith?

  • Are they really political issues?

    Are they really political issues?

    Homosexuality and abortion seem to be tied into political issues, yet it seems that is directed at the christian audience. Since homosexuals and abortion do not pose a true threat to America, since they aren't terrorizing innocents and not posing a threat to our economy, what reason is there for it to be politically debated? Since the whole mandate of separation of chuch & state, in a strech, ties into it, I just ask this: why is it a political issue?

  • My honest apology.?

    For all the people that I have offended, in the range of the questions I have answered in religion & spirituality, I apologize. though I will state my case. I am only a boy, not even 15, but over 10, and my veiws are, granted, something that needs to be molded a bit better. I think though, that I have accomplished quite a bit. Reading books on religions and philosophy, something most of my classmates cannot yet comprehend, I have a sense of self acheivement, so, this will be a goodbye to those who at least saw me interesting enough to thumbs up my answers, and those who didn't. I will be posting no more answers, for I don't think I have ones that appeal to anyone. Only questions from me lie ahead. Goodbye, to those who like my answers. Good....bye.

  • A non-offensive question for atheists.?

    Why do you try to convince people to believe in god, not to? I'm not saying it in a bad way, but you know that most of them are just stubborn and wrapped up in, basically, blind faith. To me, atheism makes the most sense, it's basically just logic, and I like that, but c'mon, let them have dissapointment if it comes! It's not your fault!

  • Abortion Veiw (and question)?

    Many find abortion wrong and unetical, yet I ask if its any better to use the miracle of birth as punishment and forever let that child belive himself to only be a burden and mistake. Speking on the pro side of abortion, 2 out of 3 embryos are naturally rejected by the uterus, and if they all had souls, well that seems a moral tragedy, on another note, about 9 out of 10 sperm cells (and sometimes even more) are rejected by the egg, which turns it into much worse than a moral tragedy. Plus, with stem cells, many terminally ill people could have a longer life. Though I will probably will just hear the broken record of "it's murdur", so I leave with this, "if someone has the potential to be a millionare, they cannot yet spend the money, just as if something has the potential to live, it cannot yet be amungst the living", Philosophy, by Stephen Law.
