A little question to christians: [Spirituality & Religion]If god was the evil one and the devil was the good one, how would you know?
Aren't babies born atheist? [Spirituality & Religion]They don't have an understanding of god, therefore they can't believe in god. If they lack a belief in a god then they are by definition atheist.
Why did god punish adam and eve for disobeying him and eating the fruit? [Spirituality & Religion]Before they ate of the tree of knowledge, they had no understanding of good and evil. So how would they know it was bad to eat the fruit?
Does anyone know why parrots like music?Like not your personal speculations on why, but has anyone studied that?
"It's illogical to think that life and the universe could arise without a designer!" [Spirituality & Religion]Therefore the logical alternative is an all-powerful, infinitely complex being capable of creating everything but without origin himself. Can one of you please do me the courtesy of explaining how that is the logical assumption?
Is cannibalism morally wrong?Not talking about murdering someone and eating them necessarily. There are for instance examples of two consenting adults who agree to eat and be eaten respectively. So is cannibalism itself morally wrong?
Omar khadr has recently won 10 million dollars from the canadian government. [Spirituality & Religion]The wife of the soldier he is accused of killing wants all that money and more and an american court has ruled in her favour.

Omar Khadr has just recieved his 10 million dollars that he won in the suit against the canadian government. How do you feel about that?I don't think they were wrong to give it to him.

How do you rationalize cherry picking the parts of the old testament you like and ignoring the rest? [Spirituality & Religion]Many hard line christians are very sure that being gay is wrong as described in leviticus, but they continue to wear clothes of mixed fabric. How do you figure?
What do we think of the canadian government paying Omar Khadr 10 million dollars for human rights volations?Omar Khadr is a canadian and was a child soldier who killed an american soldier with a grenade during a firefight in Afghanistan.

In the debate about whether or no god exists, is the burden of proof on the theist to prove he does or the atheist to prove he doesn't? [Spirituality & Religion]And please, none of this hippy, huggy feel-good bullshit about "neither side has to prove it! just let people believe what they want!" It's a debate. We're not handing out participation ribbons.
Hi christians! On whom does the burden of proof lay: christian or atheist? [Spirituality & Religion]Is it on christians to prove that god exists or is it on atheists to prove that god doesn't exist? Explain your reasoning.
Hey christians! Let's get this straight: [Spirituality & Religion]When debating whether or not god exists, the burden of proof is on you to show that god exists. It is not up to atheists to prove that god DOESN'T exist any more than it is on you to prove that leprechauns don't exist.
