Has anyone ever dated someone completely opposite to them (I'm thinking more in terms of personality as opposed to hobbies or interests)? How well did it go? I'm curious; most of my friends hook up with people very much like themselves, so no help there.

During the cold war, a prestigious communist university made the discovery that any virus could be neutralized by the introduction of a stronger virus. They'd just cancel each other out. The Tsar was worried that their rivals would introduce a viral plague on them. So he ordered two scientists...

So, most university and college students are gearing up for another fun year right? Let's post what courses we have, just to see what other disciplines get to take. I'll go first: First Term -Physical Chemistry -Astronomy: Stars and Planets -Calculus -Core Physics -Biophysics -Marine Mammal...

What are people's opinions on Moar? Is it possible to keep getting Moar out of life? I mean, if you had over nine thousand of something, should that be enough? Like over nine thousand pictures of cats in funny positions; is there need for Moar? What if a young child came up to you and said they...

I'm aware of the scientific perspective of this, but from a Biblical perspective, does anything in the Bible suggest against life existing on other worlds?

So, I know bestiality is wrong according to the Bible (and rightfully so), but I'm curious about marriage between humans and half-humans... specifically centaurs, although mermaids and harpys would also qualify (although I've never met any of those). So because a centaur is half human and...

Moderators, please don't delete or ban me until you read the whole post. It's not as overly dramatic as the title might suggest, actually. I just wonder if Believers understand the effect that extra-Biblical judgements and attitudes can have on non-Believers who might be interested in hearing...

So I can tell there's some individuals who are itching to tackle this topic; to the point that "feminism" comments are crawling into things that have only tangential connections to them. So, I'm down for just having it out here. I don't think feminism is in any way the threat that some people...

So, I noticed a bunch of places where people have suggested or promoted polygamy as a viable option. I know a good scriptural argument could be made for why it's wrong and against God's will, but I also know that there's people who can argue scripture in circles all day long. So, I just want to...

So I have a huge crush on a graven image, specifically a character from an anime series. Is this a sin? God tells us: You shall not make for yourself a graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the...

Has anyone else been following this? I'm quite impressed with the work that CERN has done, and it turns out it's yet more evidence for a Creator. Yet another fundamental particle that only works within an extraordinarily small range of values. The more we understand, the more evidence we get...

Okay, so I know thermodynamics is usually used to show a scientific rationale for God, but lately I've been wondering if quantum mechanics would be a better model (or at least a different one). I'm not necessarily speaking of the Copenhagen interpretation, although the observer requirement...

One (or two, depending on who you ask) of the ten commandments is that you shall not covet things that belong to your neighbor. What are we as a Christian community doing to prevent and denounce people from coveting things? In a world where even our politicians covet things, it's clear that...

I'm curious as to why we aren't doing more in Christianity to stop this. It's far, far more prevalent than homosexual sex, and yet we turn a blind eye to it. I think we need to get serious about it and enact the following changes in our churches: 1. Nobody who has engaged in extramarital sex is...

I'm just curious what other people's opinions are on this? Do liars have some deviant genetic sequence that causes them to be at ease while lying? Or is it because they've chosen the world's values and turned against God? What do you think of someone who claims to be Christian but has told a...

I'm so sick of people saying that Frodo is the hero of LOTR... he's totally not; Sam is the real hero. Sam is the ONLY ringbearer who never gets corrupted by the ring, and he's the one that actually does most of the things necessary for the journey to Ordruin; everything from cooking all the...

This girl rocks, hands down. I feel bad for all the mud people sling at her. http://protectourgirls.com/ I wish I could do things like this to help others and work towards justice in this world.

The title's actually not as melodramatic as people might initially assume. So, I'm reconciling myself with the fact that not all Christians are icky and have cooties, and I might have to attend a church with them semi-regularly. So I perform some due diligence on finding a home church here in...

I feel like there were a lot more threads and topics posted last night... now they're all gone... was I dreaming? (I'm actually not sure; I tend to blur the awake/asleep line)
