Awkward Fingers

I mean, don't get me wrong, I still own a colander, but admittedly, I only wear it when I'm drunk...

Should I just come fully out of the atheist closet?

I still respect others that have been touched by His Noodly Appendage, but I just don't feel the sauce in me anymore..

For others that have come out, against cultures peer pressure to worship He that boiled for our sins, have you had difficulties afterwards?

Loss of friends or jobs??

Now that all this is going on with the satanists and their statutes, how many theists have rethought (or always thought) that placing the ten commandments in or at a courthouse is wrong.

Not that the commandments are wrong, but how many theists are against them at a courthouse?

There were more churches in your area that did snake handling, as long as you weren't required to participate?

I know people who watch Nascar for the crashes, hockey for the fights, etc.

Would you take a few hours out of your Sunday to watch religious fanatics prove their god loves them by risking getting bitten by snakes? Venomous or non?

Thoughts on this? Any rational arguments, comments, discussion?

What if god was a better parent, or read some Dr Spock?

Youth pastor Pitt, during an interview minutes before being arrested for a second time for impersonation an officer.

Is this just more persecution of the faithful?

Or is he not a true xtian?

A wonderful watch, regardless of how you see it.

Well, it seems R&S is at least a strong majority trolls, or at least the vocal majority..

..but I'm curious, do people come here with honest questions, and just, turn slowly over time to trollism, like a disease?

Or do trolls specifically come here, and start as trolls to begin with?

It would be a bit silly to say honest answers only, please..

..but at least makeit good, if you don't make it thoughtful.

Happy holidays!

While still in the majority, not by as much anymore..

new Harris poll shows the current state of belief in religion, and the supernatural.

god dropped again, but ghosts went up a little.

and evolution is almost to 50%

(this poll is U.S. only, not state of the world.)

Thoughts on any of the changes?

Really, was a friend in it, and asked you t join?

Did you read about it and think, "That's for me!"

Curious as to how you decided to join, and what info you had prior to joining?

Some Christian feedback please, what rights have you lost to atheists?

Not what rights are equal to every other groups, but what can you specifically not do, because you're Christian, that other religious groups our secular groups are allowed to do?

Also, if it's a state law, please add your state, if you feel comfortable with that.

"......"

And then he'll get trapped in a small, invisible box while you awkwardly watch?

Got into limited beta for just this weekend, and stuck at work...

What would you do? :-( our, bonus question.. Tell me a joke to cheer me up.

Unfortunately, can't call off in thus job without finding coverage for shift.

Just curious, because I hear this moderately often, that prayer is illegal in schools.

I'm curious if someone could cite what state or school it's illegal in?

Where is it ILLEGAL for any student, before, after, our during school to pray (as long as it's in a non disruptive manner or time?)

Can theists please give me examples?

I understand school supported prayer being stopped, but in what areas can a Christian child who wants to pray be stopped by law?

How often does it start as, "maybe I'll find a nice, honest question that I can answer to help communications between atheists and theists"

Then, after a few questions and answers it just becomes "F this.. I'm just here for points at this point... I give up on you ALL!!!."

Question for the R&Sers, as this is a quite polarizing section, what are your opinions on the suggestion to Yahoo to show both the answer chosen as best, AND site the answer with the highest thumbs up?

I'll pick on atheists, since I don't do that enough..

For example, am atheists poses the question

"why aer theeist so bad at speling"

To which multiple theists come on, with proper grammar and show that they can spell quite proficiently, until one person answers..

"lolya u aer totaly rite!!!"

And of course, takes best answer..

Would showing highest thumbs up help to balance this out?

Only looking for people that agree with you? That send to make it look like your faith is a bit weak.

Need more people to block?

How can you possibly say your knowledge or faith is string, if the smallest opposition causes you to react like a child?

Obviously, thus is not for the majority.

..just the blockers and reporters.

Ford in more shows? I really liked her in Murphy Brown, and in Hope and Faith with Kelly Ripa.. I think she's very underutilized as an actress

Who's with me??

Or any other deity that a religion has claimed made dirt and everything.

How do I KNOW who made this dirt???

*if you quote the Bible, that opens the way to quote any other book that has belief that their deity made it, so please..

How can I tell just by looking at the dirt, Who made it?

Would you rather have a tiger chase after you, or a zebra?

Bonus question to anyone who can explain why Yahoo thinks gender studies is the best forum for this question...

At a friends house, lets say. They would go over to play with a friend, and that child's parents would explain how great Allah is, and have them read the Quaran with them, what would you do?

Or, to add to that, after a few weeks of it, they started telling you how they think Allah is great?
