darwinsfriend AM

I have had e-mail contact with some born again christians and they all tell me that accepting Jesus as your saviour is not enough to be a christian and that I never was (I'm an ex-christian but that's not relevent here).

Does this attitude annoy you?

Do you believe you are a christian even if you're not "born again"?

Why do so many people in the US feel that they have to make their religious beliefs public?

In Europe very few people will talk about their beliefs and will keep them to themselves.Nobody really cares if you're religious or not and we are generally happy for people to believe what they want to believe.

Yet whenever I see something on tv from America (talk shows etc) it seems that god has to be mentioned every 5 minutes(ok I know that's an exageration but you get my drift)

Why is it that America seems to be the most fundamentalist christian country in the world?

Or does that privilege only belong to westerners when they go to a foreign country.

My watch has chrome edges and at the top and bottom the chrome is around a half inch thick.

This morning I noticed it was scratched,nothing unusual in that you may say but the scratches quite clearly spell VT.

I'm not joking,this is spooky.

Anybody got any advice?

I see many christians think it is ridiculous that some muslims are upset about the naming of a teddy bear.

However, weren't many christians upset about the chocolate jesus statue and viewed it as an attack on christianity?

For years scientists have searched for the missing link to prove how man evolved from a common ancestor with apes.

It would appear that this link has now been found.

Do you think this will be accepted by the church?

Why do you believe in your god and not any of the thousands of other gods that have been written about throughout history?

Please try not to quote scripture or verse from your holy book as I would like to hear your own personal thoughts.

2 cases in the news regarding women being sentenced or possibly sentenced to receiving lashes for breaking Islamic law.

While I do not agree that the punishment fits the crime and indeed I personally feel corporal punishment of this kind is barbaric,the fact remains that both of those women broke the law of the country in which they were living.

So who is really at fault?

Is it arrogance or naivete that causes some people to say that theirs is the one true god.

Man has invented many gods over the centuries and there has not been one shred of evidence to show that any of them exist.

Why should I believe that your god is the one true god?

But he didn't create hell?

Please make your minds up christians.

Did god create everything or not?

Get this. If you are an atheist how can you say there is no god. you have to believe that there is a God to try and convince People there are no god.

God Did not make atheists to convince people that there is no god. He made them to Prove that there is a god. And for that matter try this.

We are on earth. earth is in a solar system that is but a pin prick in the universe. The solar system is one of Millions in the universe and it is constantly expanding. Think about it. there are billions of planets in our solar system and millions of solar systems. HOW can there NOT be someone to create that?? We are less than a millionth of a pinprick in this universe???

If Moses hadn't dropped and broken the third tablet,what do you think the other 5 commandments would have been?

Man invented the concept of hell to instill fear and therefore exercise control.

If your religion was not based on fear there would be no need for this concept.

I saw this earlier and would like to know what it is that you fear about two people being in a loving relationship and how that relationship can be detrimental to society.

I have been coming here for some time and I have come to like a number of the people who come here but there is one person in particular who has caught my attention.

I seem to be developing a crush on her.

Is that being silly?

And yes it does have a religious theme

Why is that whenever anybody asks a question to do with sex in R&S it gets 50 answers within minutes of being posted?

(ok maybe that's a slight exageration but you know what I mean)

If you were to discover that your child was an atheist,would you think less of them?
