    Is church attendance that important?

    I have been struggling lately. I became a Christian again earlier this year and have been looking at churches. It seems when I start getting involved, I lose interest. I believe in God, love Jesus and want to follow his teachings, but I want to take part in helping the poor, sick and...

    Proverbs 22:7

    I am a little confused about something. Proverbs mostly seems like a coherent whole, but verse 7 seems out of whack. "The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is slave to the lender." Most of the book is not very positive in speaking of the rich, so what does the verse mean?

    What's the big deal with Chick-Fil-a?

    I don't understand why there are always so many cars there. I have eaten there; it's not bad, but it doesn't warrant being crowded all the time. What's up with that?

    Apparently there is a White Lives Matter group

    Some guy in the group tried to burn down a church and got arrested. Derp. I had no idea there was a WLM. Herpy derp.

    Theists: What would a goddess universe look like?

    I think goddesses are mostly nicer than gods. Gods can be war-like, angry and punishing. Females, as creators, tend to love their creations and would not destroy them. What do you think?

    What happens after death for an enlightened person?

    I haven't been able to find an answer. If you're not going through rebirth, what happens after you die?

    Uganda's lovely new law

    Uganda has passed a law making it illegal to identify as LGBT. Fundamentalist missionaries are done trying to teach hate in the US, so they are spreading it in Africa and it's working. Is this really what they want? Africa already has enough problems without adding this to the mix. WTH?

    Any manicurists here?

    Ex-Christians: How do current Christians treat you?

    I still have some friends who are Christian, and those that know have treated me in different ways. One, a very dear friend, does not treat me any differently. Another is civil yet very cool, and I don't mean she's hip. Many others don't know, but I don't see them often, so I haven't mentioned...

    Are we ready for the 2024 elections?

    It's gotta be talked about sooner or later. Who are your favorite candidates? I know we don't know exactly who will run, but of those whose names are bandied about, which one is on your short list? I am looking at Chris Sununu. He seems pretty centrist. My husband says that candidates have to...

    What kind of car(s) do you drive and why?

    This might have been asked before but I love cars, so I wanted to ask. Also, do you name your cars? I have a red 2017 Subaru Outback. Hubby has a dark gray 2015 Lexus ES350. They are both reliable, get fairly good gas mileage, are good in crash tests and are comfortable to drive. I chose both...

    The pursuit is over

    My pursuit to find a religion has ended. (I hope anyway.) There is just nothing out there for me. My philosophy is Buddhism, but not as a religion. Help me be happy with my decision to be agnostic

    High LDL

    I had labs done and my LDL is super high, which is unlike me. I wonder if it's because I was on the "coconuts are the best" eating plan. That and having the broken ankle didn't help. I have now sworn off all coconut products and am trying to get back into a fitness regimen. Has anyone any other...

    What is God to you?

    To me, God is what animates us. Love, music, aesthetics, nature, etc, i.e., the things that move us. What do you think?

    Suffering and evil

    How does your religion explain why suffering and evil happen? Things like birth defects, the death of innocent people, starvation and sickness in developing nations, dictators, etc. I can't believe in a god that doesn't keep these things from happening.

    Intentional communities. Your opinion.

    I have been interested in them for years, and have decided to look into living in one if my husband passes before me. I think they are a great alternative to cities. People are invested in each other and often the environment. Do you have any near you? Any experience with them? What is your...
