    Creationism Creates Confusion for Christians

    Ditto I think I get what you are implying. That there must be a higher power, a "God" responsible for Life, the Universe and Everything. This is not an incontestable proposition, and even if true it does not follow that the Bible is an "insprired" work any more than any other holy text, even...

    From where you came, and where you will go ?

    As I see it, I am a part of the substance of the universe. I always was and always will be. For a short time a potion of that substance has coalesced into a conscious entity and eventually it return to an undifferentiated state

    Shakespeare too sexual for Florida’s schools?

    God Save The Queen by the Sex Pistols got to no. 1 with zero radio play. Is that what you are thinking of?

    Shakespeare too sexual for Florida’s schools?

    It may be an urban legend but I have heard that some schools have been forced to remove the Bible from library shelves, based on the amount of genocide, incest, slavery and murder that it condones

    Chinese Record the Birth of Jesus and More?

    Sound like an apologist grasping at straws to me. The only people who would be convinced would be those that already believe.

    No escape

    My conception of God, is the blind idiot god. A motivating force with no reason or purpose. We and the universe we inhabit are the byproducts of natural processes. That doesn't mean life has no meaning, but it comes from within it is not imposed from without

    Films from the past that could not be released today.

    Does any one remember "The Dick Emery Show"...................."Hello Honky Tonks how are you?"

    Films from the past that could not be released today.

    Its hardly old. For an example of old shows that may be offensive today, Love thy Neighbour, All in the Family, The Goodies, Get Snart. The "Carry On" series of films. Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie.

    Films from the past that could not be released today.

    How so? It was only made "yesterday". It can't be displaying outdated attitudes surely? I watch it and still find it legitimately funny not ironically so.

    The End Of High School Debate?

    Is this the woke Fascism that I've been hearing about? Has the pendulum swung too far?

    Parents call police on teacher over LGBT book.

    Would you rather they get the schoolyard version. There are age appropriate resources, educators should be aware of them.

    Parents call police on teacher over LGBT book.

    You say that like it's a bad thing. But seriously, I think the situation has already gone too far to be resolved.

    I'm sure no one will hold that against you

    Who is Jesus to you?

    That seems to be one of those phrases that sounds profound but actually means very little. Is it similar to John 10:10 "I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.". I dont dispute there are those that find it so, and good for them. It has not been the case...

    You have two cows....

    There is a more serious, though still humorous, version of this that uses the cows to illustrate various economic systems. The one you use just seems to mostly play up various national/racial stereotypes. https://www.smart-jokes.org/two-cows-economics-explained.html

    Who is Jesus to you?

    You probably think it is obvious, but i have to ask.What is the gift that this Jesus possesses?

    Mystics and the Mystery

    Mysticism is about Darkness and Light. The Darkness holds the Mystery which is revealed by the Light. Lucifer was the Light-Bearer. As Prometheus he gave man fire from Heaven. The Light enables us to explore the Darkness, to challenge it. The refiners fire draws Gold from the dross. There is...

    Sikh Queenslanders allowed to carry ceremonial knives in schools after court ruling

    As I understand it, and I am willing to accept correction, the carrying of the Kirpan is meant to represent a Sikh's willingness to defend their faith. As such a small symbolic blade, such as a badge or pendant, would be sufficient.

    Atheists (humorous) :-)

    You label this as "humorous" but like many jokes it seems a little mean-spirited and, in my experience factually incorrect. I just felt I had to say that.
