Have your children been influenced by other's beliefes.

ebberts @ebberts (784) • United States 15 Mar 08

The other day my son came home and was talking about religion and I ask him where he got his information. He expressed that it came from one of his friends. Some of this was in my opinion really off the wall. Would you worry about...

eridaniblack At least she's having a positive experience...sort of. My parents were Atheists/Agnostic (difficult to tell back then...) and kids at school were very mean when they found out that I didn't really 'get' Christianity, or believe in it. I had to go to therapy...

How did you get your cat?

enchantedleppard @enchantedleppard (1541) • United States 15 Mar 08

We have 4 cats and each of our cats has their own story of how they came to us. Each story is unique and is part of our babies lives. I was sitting here tonight reading through discussions and I would love to know how you came to...

eridaniblack I bought my cat from Petsmart, in one of those 'last chance rescue' things they always have going. He's the first male cat I've ever owned, and I have to say, the best cat I've ever owned as well. He's super friendly, and only bites/claws when you're playing...

How to stop teenagers from smoking...Just a thought...

Feona1962 @Feona1962 (7526) • United States 16 Mar 08

Kids who smoke think that they are cool... Now what if these kids had to wear a pair of lungs that are diseased from smoking around their neck...say, like a vest type thing...and they had to wear it everywhere they went..Now...

eridaniblack LMAO How old are you? I think you're a little out of touch with the modern age. No child is going to change their mind about smoking because of a black lung vest. If they're old enough to smoke, then they're old enough to know the difference between an ugly...

She Thinks I Charged To Much??!!

copperkitten @copperkitten (3473) • United States 17 Nov 07

Ok I babysit for a boy and girl. They are moving. She asked me to watch the kids from 9pm last night till 3 pm today. I said No problem. It would be 30$. 30$ for 2 kids {3 and 5} for 18 hours. Thats 1.60$ an hour!! She had the...

eridaniblack I'd say you didn't ask for enough. When I used to babysit, people would pay me $20 just to watch their kids for an 8 hour workday. I'd watch them five days out of the week. They lived down the street, so I didn't have to drive, but if I did have to drive I...

Chance to work anywhere around the world

posham @posham (1236) • Philippines 16 Mar 08

Given a chance to work anywhere around the world? Where would you like it to be and why. Plus what job would you like to have. Given a chance, I would like to work in Japan because it's a nexus of technological advancements and...

eridaniblack Depends. I'd want a strong grasp on the language if I were to work outside of the states, or else work in an English speaking country. I'd love to work in the UK, Canada, or Australia. Somewhere big, but not overwhelming or 'not all it's cracked up to be'...

/facepalm /temple rub /digust This is incredibly heinous, completely horrible. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/devon/6366255.stm You read it right, four women arrested for goading toddlers to fight each...

eridaniblack That's hilarious. Yes, I realize it's wrong and all that, but c'mon...baby fight club is freaking hilarious. And, hey, it could be worse...At least they aren't beating the children themselves. A smack from an adult is going to hurt a lot less than a smack...

Do not answer.....I was raised United Pentecostal.....If anyone knows about this religion you will understand...My church does not believe in cutting your hair,wearing pants,wearing make up...you would have to be raised this way...

eridaniblack Read the bible, front to back, and discover for yourself if there really are any laws about cutting your hair. If it's in the old testement, many people claim that those laws are null and void because of the new testement, such as the no shellfish or blended...

Do You Love God or Do You Fear God?

Chiang_Mai_boy @Chiang_Mai_boy (3882) • Thailand 16 Mar 08

How do you view God? Is she loving and compassionate or is she vengeful and jealous? Do you come willingly and joyfully before God in a spirit of love or do you stand before her quaking with fear? Is your worship based on the...

eridaniblack I'm an Atheist, so it depends on what God you're talking about. They all sound ok on paper...at least until you get into the dirty details, like slaughtering people, plagues, sending people to Hell, etc. I view God as a crutch for people who cannot accept...

eridaniblack I'd correct them, and reinforce the family beliefs...but I wouldn't turn it into a lecture/issue (that'll just make your kid tune you out). Just let your child know that your church doesn't feel the same way, explain the differences, and then let him make up...

Sergeantrom @sergeantrom (5721) • United States 15 Mar 08

came up to me and said "good morning maam, do you have a church home" and proceeded to give me a flyer. He could see me struggling with a full cart of groceries and since it was windy the bags were flying. I said "sir, I am VERY...

eridaniblack Tch. It all offends me. If I was religious, I wouldn't need anyone's flyers and pamphlets, now would I? And since they don't know my religion, they don't have any reason to assume I'm not religious. I'm actually an Atheist, but not only do they not know...
