Would you blindly accept your church's teaching about anything?

sharra1 @sharra1 (6340) • Australia 9 Oct 08

Do you just accept and believe anything your church tells you or do you let your mind think about it and question it? I raised this question because a young catholic mathematician I know said that if the Pope told her that 2+2 = 6...

locke49 Absolutely not. Although that it is said that the Church is God, it is the people of the Church that really make it what it is. I have heard some priests say some ridiculous things, and ordained or not, I never blindly accept information.

locke49 I feel guilty for thinking this (let alone posting it). Seeing obese people eat fast food disgusts me. I know everybody gets hungry and it may not be the case that they're eating like that all the time (but you can see where I'm coming from right?).

The question was raised to me: Do you trust people who do not like animals?

Amber @AmbiePam (92865) • United States 8 Oct 08

Now this wasn't something I just thought of. People who don't like animals don't have to be bad people. Pet owners can be bad people as well. But I'm talking about people who can't stand dogs, cats, horses, goldfish...they balk...

locke49 I probably would not trust a person who doesn't like animals to look after my cat for instance. I wouldn't judge somebody solely because they don't like animals - as long as they're not violent - then I would have a problem with them.

Pizza Delivery

patgalca @patgalca (18370) • Orangeville, Ontario 8 Oct 08

If It Became Legal For Women To Go Topless,Will You?

miraclefreebies @miraclefreebies (3043) • United States 1 Oct 08

Why can men go topless? Is it because men don't have boobs to show off? No I'm not jealous of men because I go topless anytime I choose to, and that's only behind close doors. So if the system decide to drive everybody topless,...

Do you still read and respond to a post with very long written content?

AltheGreat2430 @AltheGreat2430 (2716) • Philippines 8 Oct 08

Hi Mylotters! Do still read and post response to a very long discussion? Me, I don't I find boring and I loss interest on it. But, if that discussion really has a catchy content like every sentence is substantial and very...

12 responses

locke49 I can usually tell if a long discussion is worth it or not after the first couple of sentences. If the author is engaging and the length of the discussion is essential to make a point, then I actually prefer the discussion to some of the "shallower" ones.

Which website do you like most for news??

abdulhaseeb86 @abdulhaseeb86 (145) • Pakistan 8 Oct 08

Which websites are you using for news??

7 responses

locke49 I like the New York Times. I don't live in New York, in fact, I live on the west coast! But I have been counting on NYT for years and they always seem to deliver accurate, unbiased information. I also like their website setup - very appealing and easy to use.

Do yo use google map?

Vivian_Studio @Vivian_Studio (275) • United States 7 Oct 08

Do you use Google map or the MSN map? I use google map more often, though I have a GPS, I still check the google map before I start~

3 responses

locke49 I actually use MapQuest most often. Don't really know why, it was the first direction-giving type website I used so I guess I just stuck with it. Sometimes I also use Google Maps in addition to MapQuest just in case one of the directions is wrong.

locke49 I usually go to sleep at around 11:00pm and get up at 6:30am, so that's about 7 and a half hours. I always shoot to go to bed before 11:00pm though. And to answer your question, I don't know what's wrong with you. Do you wake up during the middle of the night...

Computers help a lot?

firegod9888 @firegod9888 (15) • United States 6 Oct 08

Do you think computers help a lot? Despite the fact that in today's schools we need to use the computers a lot, do you think that computer have brought goodness to our lives? Do you think they have brought laziness?

locke49 3 to 5 nonstop hours in front of the computer is a long time. You should be stretching and standing up at least every half hour or so. Usually it takes me about an hour and a half before my back starts to hurt, but I try not to spend so much time at the...
