Maybe there's hope for the world after all! Reason, not myths, is the only thing that will bring peace and understanding.

IF YOU KNOW ANEYTHING ABOUT GENITICS ,

THEN THE BIBLE MUST BE WRONG ,

ALMOST THE FIRST THING IN THE BIBLE IS THE STORY OF ADAM AND EVE

ASUMING ADAM AND EVE HAD KIDS HOW MANY GENERATIONS WOULD IT TAKE BEFORE THE POPULATION WAS NON VIABLE , BECAUSE GENETICS TELLS US THAT IF BROTHER AND SISTER MATE AND HAVE KIDS THEIR CROMOSONES

WILL PREDUCE FLAWS THAN WITH ENOUGH INBREADING WILL CEASE TO BE

ABLE TO REPRODUCE , SO WHERE DID ALL THE PEOPLE COME FROM.

ALTHOUGH THIS SENERIO DOES EXPLAIN THE POPULATION OF REPUBLICANS.

THE BASIS TO ALL OR MOST RELIGIONS IS CONTROL OF OTHERS

AND MORE PEOPLE HAVE DIDE IN THE NAME OF RELIGION THAN ANY OTHER CAUSE , THE BIBEL IS A GOOD REFERENCE BOOK ON THINGS YOU SHOULD AND SHOULDANT DO , BUT THATS ABOUT ALL THATS BELIEVABLE IN THE BIBLE.

Kathleen:

You don't get it do you? When you die, you're worm food. Enjoy life now. Love and be good to all. All there really is in life is your interaction with your surroundings while your here. There is no place to go.

Peace

Shame on congress for adopting 'In God We Trust' as the National Motto. This motto is not all inclusive and does not represent the country as a whole.

So much for loving thy neighbor and doing unto others only what you would have do unto you....

No wonder the best examples of "Christian" values that I've encountered are typically found among those who are non-believers.

We're growing, good. Actually Abu, the greatest concern should be the increase in Muslims. Now THAT'S a scary thought. I fear for this world.

People tend to take things literally. I believe that's the problem because they believe illustrations seen as figures from history and carved in stone and depicted in art work are in truth visions of Divinity. The universe is a living consciousness. We are all a part of this consciousness. Our components are composed of celestial matter and the eternity which dwells inside our conscious minds are all a part of the universe.

Greetings,

I am a Greek Orthodox convert to Islam from California. It seems that the increase in "nones" should be a cause for great concern. I think that Muslims and Christians can both agree that an increase in people having no faith in God at all is a negative development.

Thanks,

Abu Sayf
