Shout out some examples. One that I recently stumbled upon is the myth of milk being good for you. Let's hear some more widely accepted ideas propogated by people out to make a buck. I know there are hundreds, thousands out there.
In Response to above:
So, after reading these two posts from another site, what do you think is the ultimate cause of all the calamities occuring on earth? I am sure you probably know what my beliefs are on the subject but I am always interested in hearing differing opinions.
And in case you...
I'm still alive, don't worry.:sheep: : hamster : SWEET...NEW SMILEYS!!!
Ok, Just wanted to let some people here know that I am going to attend a UU church for the first time this Sunday. I just got done chatting it up with the minister and she seemed pretty cool. Does anyone have any comments...

So, has anyone happened to develop a technique of absorbing information from a book without going through the tedious task of reading it line by line by frickin line?
I am reading one of the densest books I have ever read right now. I've been at it for the past 4 or 5 hours and have only gotten...
Anyone hear about it? I got an email recently from PFAW about it:
If what they are saying is true, then it is terribly upsetting. I honestly wouldn't put it past some of the people in office and in corporations to pull such a slimy trick.
What do you think of this?
Feel free to probe my mind. I'm weak...I had to give in to the "everybody else is doing it" line of thought.
If you have any questions about who I am, what I do, how I do it, and Bob, just ask and I'll try to tell.
Hey guys! I haven't had much time to stop in and chat too much lately but I'm still here. I know you were all worried :p
How about a quick recap of the most important things that have happened in the last two weeks? I know everyone can come up with some interesting things :D
I am so pumped! I am actually pretty excited about at least half of my classes for this semester too. It is my first semester taking classes for my new major, Environmental Studies and Applications. Although I have to say, I am not so pumped for my general management classes, accounting just...
I am in a bit of a crisis here. Not really a crisis, but I am just not sure how the best way to handle it is.
My girlfriend, as some of you may already know, is a Christian. She goes to church every Sunday with her family, she reads the Bible; She is really quite devoted to her faith. Her...
Grr. To think that a new life, something that is supposed to be pure, is being polluted and filled with all of these imnpurities is quite amazing. It is no wonder the cancer rate in the US has been on the rise since we started producing petrochemicals on a large scale.
I found this a little bit ago online, really very frightening to think that such blatant abuse of power is occuring within our borders. I wish I had a clue as to how to bring down such a tyrannical grip on some of these families lives...
In this article the writer talks about the Aymara people in the Andes mountains and their perception of time.
While that in itself is extremely interesting and I am curious as to what might have brought it to happen, I also found this interesting:
So, what kind of thinker are you? Do you...
While reading through the Humanure Handbook, I came to a page where the author addresses religious history and our relationship to the environment.
He brings up the issue of man as the central focus of creation (Judeo-Christian) or an integral part of nature (most Eastern religions like...
So, what brought you to Religious Forums?
What has kept you here?
What is your favorite thing about it?
For me, the thing that brought me here was my search for religious understanding. I was going through a rough time with my girlfriend, a christian, while I was leaving that faith. Really, I...
Has anyone ever heard of it or considered it? If not, please read this link and tell us what you think. Humanure is a fascinating idea and a great way to solve at least a few of our major societal problems.
