    Threesomes?

    Morally I have no objections to a threesome (and I'm sure it's a damn good time!), but I don't think that in the long term it can ever work out. I think that each person involved will always have a stronger emotional attachement to on of the other people than the third party. Maybe it can work...

    Graduation problems in UK

    Thanks for posting that, it's good to know that some conclusion looks like it's going to be reached. Pretty odd how Natfhe are criticizing the employers:"This is irresponsible and incompetent and most importantly it prolongs the difficulties for students." Pot calling the kettle black perhaps?

    Graduation problems in UK

    This might be effecting me (well actually it already has, some of my coursework has been marked but those marks aren't being released - very annoying), and if I don't graduate this summer because they can't organise a reasonable way to protest I will NOT be happy! :fight: Since us students...

    Heaven Joke

    Just got a pretty funny email, enjoy... One day, this man, Tony, died. When he was sent to be judged, he was told that he had committed a sin, and that he could not go to heaven right away. He asked what he did and God told him that he cheated on his income taxes, and that the only way he...

    How Nerdy are you?

    Overall, you scored as follows: 94% scored higher (more nerdy), and 6% scored lower (less nerdy). What does this mean? Your nerdiness is: Definitely not nerdy, you are probably cool. This test must be flawed! I'm know I'm nerdier than that! See, I even figured out how to use italics on a...

    Official Dogma Vs Individual Interpretation

    An interesting approach, it actually makes a lot of sense.

    Official Dogma Vs Individual Interpretation

    Thanks for the replies guys. Victor, if you agree with their interpretation 100% then how does it leave you free to have your own interpretations? I think I may not be understanding you right, I'm a bit slow (read 'hungover') today!

    Official Dogma Vs Individual Interpretation

    Which side do you tend to end up on? If there is a view that you cannot agree with the Church on will you accept their view as what is right or maintain your own position?

    Official Dogma Vs Individual Interpretation

    To any who would care to satisfy my curiosity... To what extent do you accept the official dogma of your religion and do you find that that conflicts with views you hold yourself? If you don't belong to an official religious organisation is this because of differing interpretations of...

    Does Your God(s) Ever "Get Involved"?

    I think that the old shaoling edict is always a good thing to bear in mind as much as possible in situations like that: run before you fight fight before you injure injure before you maim maim before you kill Of course it is always best to try and avoid any situation where people can get...

    Does Your God(s) Ever "Get Involved"?

    I'm going to play devils advocate here and say that yes, there may well be. If someone is threatening (and appears immediatley able) to kill one or more other innocent people then yes, there is a rational reason to kill that person. A bit off-topic maybe but hey...

    Does organised religion encourage individualism?

    That's interesting...I really don't know anything about Baha'i, it sounds like a very healthy approach to take though and I'm sure that it benefits it's followers.

    Does organised religion encourage individualism?

    I think that by it's very nature organised religion encourages groups to share and follow the same ideas. I'm sure that there are some religious groups that encourage their members to seek out there own answers, but from my experience this is not usually the case. The majority - those that...

    Sunstone's Immortal Words

    Actively trying to exact revenge by proving how much better you are doing than someone who has wronged you totally contradicts the idea of 'living well'. I think the point of the saying is not to dwell on how someone has hurt you and instead try to better yourself, if you can do this by helping...

    Why The Bible God has human qualities?

    Are you referring to Jesus, or suggesting that God himself was human before?

    Lazer Eye Correction

    I know one person who has had it done and they went from being practically blind (we're talking really thick glasses here!) to almost 20/20 vision. This was with one of the less expensive procedures, but if you want to spend a bit more money then you can have a higher expected rate of success...

    Recognising God

    I'm more or less inclined to agree with you. I can see no way that God could resemble a person. I think that God is a source of life and is where we will return when we are ready. We may well have this force inside of us as Tolstoy believed and it seems you do to...good for you! Far to many...

    Compare God And Nirvana!

    Not really, although recently I've been noticing some similarities. It is something I'm interested in though and I've been bearing it in mind more when looking at various religions of late. If you look for them you can probably find similarites such as those that have been touched on here...
