    The Ethics of Proselytizing

    Someone trying to persuade you to follow their religion is like someone raping you? What a lovely analogy you're making.

    What Is The Best Anti-Virus Software?

    I too can testify that when I converted from PC to Mac, my hard drive was cleansed and I was born again!!

    Can a Society Without Universal Healthcare be a Moral Society?

    Being able but unwilling to provide universal healthcare makes a society less moral.

    Why is it Important to Love Who You Sleep With?

    LOL. Well I guess we're on the same page with respect to the "Hierarchy of Sex!"

    The Wackiest Theory About Barack Obama?

    That's he's a Nazi. Which is ridiculous. The Nazis tortured people in concentration camps and let people perish in ghettos. Whereas Obama is closing Guantanamo Bay and fighting for health care for uninsured people in the inner city.

    Should Marijuana Be Legal

    I don't think that people who use marijuana should be thrown in jail. I also don't believe that it should be sold in stores. Where's the contradiction here? You know, there are other types of laws out there besides criminal law. And as for the qualities of marijuana, I SPECIFICALLY ADMITTED...

    Why is it Important to Love Who You Sleep With?

    All that I've stated is that it is better to have sex with someone you love. How is that "religious?" Also, I didn't even mention marriage.

    "Traditional values": what are yours?

    I'm no Ben Franklin when it comes to translating traditional values into pithy quotes, plus I don't believe in holding to traditional values without examining or reforming them, but I would say that I've retained my parents' values with respect to the importance of education and family.

    Should Marijuana Be Legal

    I don't think that marijuana should be criminalized. However, I don't think that it should be legalized. Although not as harmful as nicotine or as addictive as alcohol or as harmful or addictive as cocaine or heroin, it is nevertheless a somewhat harmful and possibly addictive drug used mostly...

    Why is it Important to Love Who You Sleep With?

    I'm not going to spoil the ending for you, because it was a great indie film.

    Why is it Important to Love Who You Sleep With?

    You should see the movie, "Lars and the Real Girl."

    Why is it Important to Love Who You Sleep With?

    What I meant by "casual sex" was with someone you hardly know and/or don't love as opposed to someone you're married to or in a boyfriend/girlfriend relationship with.

    Why is it Important to Love Who You Sleep With?

    There are also anatomically-correct dolls for those who are inclined.

    Why is it Important to Love Who You Sleep With?

    I said "may," and I would furthermore add that it would be the natural tendency or consequence. Now the resiliency of the soul and the grace of God is such that even prostitutes may be able to eventually have a loving relationship (but it's certainly not recommended as beneficial emotionally!)...

    Why is it Important to Love Who You Sleep With?

    It is the very GOAL OF LIFE to become a more loving person, and that means becoming more loving than you are naturally. Now naturally, people tend to love or more easily love someone they have sex with, but when you keep having casual sex and/or viewing women as pieces of meat rather than as...

    The goal of self perfection

    I don't believe that self-perfection is possible for any human being (except for Jesus). And yes, in striving for self-perfection, one may fall prey to delusion or hypocrisy. I would also add bitterness and self-destruction. Combining several New Testament passages, with respect to money for...

    God as the ultimate source of evil

    The original poster wasn't asking for evidence whether God exists or not--he ASSUMED it then asked about something else. As far as destroying the planet, if as I assume you're not a creationist but an evolutionist, then the planet has been in existence for millions of years and it's not dead...

    Mickiel's proof of God.

    I agree. Romance represents the intensity of love. The other two dimensions would be diversity and longevity.

    God as the ultimate source of evil

    First of all, that's a great analogy you set up. But to answer your question, God as the Creator is indeed the spigot. We are the water, lacking moral direction. God is the hose, regulating and directing the water in such a way that it causes the grass and the trees to grow. Yes, God is the...
