    Ganges-visiting... The name Ganges sounded familiar but had to look it up what is was again... It's a river... Well I do love rivers... Prefer them over seas and oceans. Second: Henotheistic! What a coincidence! I've always been kind of indifferent of what other people call gods but not...

    What do you think about this?

    The irony and hypocrisy you mean? I can see what's ironic about it. But this has more to do with Westerners having virtually everything while the kids in the picture below have nothing. No need to single out Christians.

    What do you think about this?

    I don't see how this has to be a "have your cake and eat it too" dilemma.

    Yes, apathy can be a bad thing. The same could be said about ambition, though. Tell me about it.. :( I doubt such a ritual magically heals them of all their vices, but I believe it can be helpful. Take the argument in mind of what I said before about the difference between individual opinions...

    What do you think about this?

    I tend to compare it more as to why people often say that forgiving someone can be for the benefit of the one you forgive, but is mostly for the benefit of yourself. It makes it easier to find peace in yourself and to better deal with the things you can't control. Saying grace can have a similar...

    What do you think about this?

    The "inequity" that produced the outcome is based a personal judgment call, which is a projection that reduces the concept of divinity to something creature-like so that it can be assessed, understood, and judged by humans. This defies the definition of what "God" represents for a believer (In...

    What's wrong with being grateful for a warm, sunny spring day, while knowing that at the same time there are places on earth where it's dark and cold?

    Why do you like answering loaded questions?

    ...Because the burden of proof lies on God...?

    The Trinity - What on Earth is it?

    Always thought the Trinity made things unnecessarily complicated. It doesn't seem to have anything to do with what "The Son of God" himself taught and yet is often considered to be of central importance for many Christians.

    Infantilizing our Furbabies

    Mikey I often call "Bollie" (Meaning something like "Fatty" in an affectionate manner because he's a big boy) I also call him "my lovely leopard/lion/lynx/jaguar/ocelot/any big or medium sized cat name" "Mike The Brave" (Because he can be very skittish) "Scaredy Cat" "Mike The Abundant" (Again...

    God Says ..., Science Says ...

    I think one reason may be a longing to be on the "winning team", a longing to be part of a group that works efficiently on a solution to any perceived problem that makes them feel sane and righteous. And it sucks to face it when it turns out all that hard work was for naught. The potential...

    God Says ..., Science Says ...

    These kinds of debates remind me of what it's like to argue or reason with a pathological narcissist... :(

    What is your short story or one sentence, Why Do You love God?

    Alright, I've collected some quotes from the sources I mentioned before. Bible - Psalm 146 3 Do not put your trust in princes, in human beings, who cannot save. 4 When their spirit departs, they return to the ground; on that very day their plans come to nothing. 5 Blessed are those...

    What is your short story or one sentence, Why Do You love God?

    It's difficult for me to come with something so concrete and specific. It's not like I read a particular passage from the scriptures, and suddenly everything made sense, or that it gets stuck in my head like a mantra. I tend to be more of an abstract thinker. I guess part of the coping process...

    I am Thankful to God, for helping me cope with my depressive tendencies.
