    Faith, Belief, Trust

    Loyalty cannot be forced but it can be trained. In The case of religion I believe it's more like a type of Stockholm syndrome.

    End of the world

    So am I correct in assuming that what your saying is that while humanity right now possesses the ability to destroy all human life on earth, we won't because Jesus will come kill all the "evil doers". After Jesus is done with that, a tree will appear and this tree will control human free will...

    Eternal Punishment

    Why in any discussion about an afterlife is there always more than one place to go? Why is it not possible that if there is a afterlife all life that dies might go there as equals? Why is human "ego" the most important part of the afterlife discussion?

    End of the world

    Considering all the metaphors in the bible and multiple interpretations it seems to me revelations could be referencing the fall of the Roman Empire and the burning down of rome. People have been predicting the end of the world for thousands of years and every time they are proven wrong...

    the golden rule for this life

    So do you believe you only need to apply the golden rule to people you feel deserve it? Maybe this is why people don't like Christians they only apply the golden rule to people like themselves. Very ignorant. Why is the surrender of logic, reason, and certain death a good thing?

    the golden rule for this life

    A person with real character chooses to treat others with respect because it's the right thing to do. If a person is only treating others with respect out of fear of going to hell or because of the benefits of going to heaven then they are just faking it.

    How do you send prayers to someone?

    You're absolutely correct when you say billions of people believe otherwise. But just because billions of people believe something doesn't make it true. Why wouldn't people believe in the power of prayer. It completely frees them of any responsibility to actually help others while still claiming...

    How do you send prayers to someone?

    So what your saying is that if you can't offer realistic help then it's ok to fake it?

    “I just choose to not listen”: why Trump supporters are tuning out the scandals

    The economy and stock market are reflections of the companies that are in business around the world. All corporations operate in the same mindset as a person with a gambling addiction. which is why despite what the gop says businesses always do better when common sense regulations and laws are...

    How do you send prayers to someone?

    Seems to me like it's just another way for people to pretend like they are helping without actually doing anything. If your neighbor is sick you go over and help you don't just sit back and talk to the air and hope for the best. The only way anything gets better is through actual action, not by...

    Why is Hillary Clinton still a target for Trump Supporters.

    The republicans have adopted the same method of argument as the tobacco industry use to try and use. "I don't have to prove I'm right if I can make people think you are wrong, then I am right by default." Donald Trump can't honestly give answers to questions being asked so they try to tell...

    End of the world

    Can humanity survive the apocalypse? If yes then is it possible revelations already happened?

    Americans Don't Like Trump, but Don't Think Democrats Have a Real Agenda, either

    The gop has a lock on 35% of the country because they own 70% of local news, most rural areas who only have antenna only get fox news and Republican talk radio isn't afraid to make up whatever crazy insane lie they want to support the idea that democrats are terrorists and inherently evil and...

    Cause and Effect are not Dead

    In order to accurately address the debate I first require someone to tell me: what is the spirit? What is it made of? How does it affect the material world? Why is the spirit necessary to the creation of material? Can the spirit become material and if so How? Can material become spirit and if so...

    Russiagate really Hillarygate?

    Putin wanted Donald Trump because he wanted a weak u.s. President. Either Putin knew trump would be a weak President or he knew he could make him a weak President with controversy or maybe both. Either way America is unfortunately stuck with a President who can't even get legislation passed with...

    Jesus was NOT a capitalist

    Again you are thinking far too simply these guys have the game so rigged they have you convinced that they play by the same rules as you. The CEO of Goldman Sachs earned over 20 million dollars last year only 7 million of that was paid in cash and was subject to income tax. The rest was equity...

    Jesus was NOT a capitalist

    If all you take into account is the income tax then you are right. 25% for 30k-80k and 35% for 400k and over. But most of the wealth of the 1% is recorded as capital gains and the capital gains tax is 15%. This is why most bonuses are paid in stock options and why they fight so hard to keep this...

    Ask me any question about Religion and i will answer them

    If the afterlife doesn't exist then is there still a reason to believe that the Qur'an is the absolute word of god?

    Jesus was NOT a capitalist

    I think the whole bible echoes the dangers of over consumption or greed and gluttony. We as Americans use to accept this idea not just because Jesus said it but because it was common sense. Which is why there was a 90% tax rate on the wealthiest 1% to keep in check greed and to build the things...

    "44 years a Republican, 1 year an Independent, today I'm joining the Democratic Party"

    There is a strong movement in the far right to acquire public sources of information to downplay corruption, attack enemies and consistently misinform. Fox news is the most famous example but the far right is smart and know that if you want to get your message to sink in make sure it's the only...
