Going green and frugal at same time

We have been replacing all the bulbs in our house with the CFLs (compact florescent lightbulbs) the ones that are the curly ones) as well as LED lamps (the tiny LED lights). The initial investment is a bit higher that the old...

unusualsuspect I started using CFLs years ago, when they were still very expensive, so it's nice that they've come down so much in price. It's been kind a chicken/egg thing. People were reluctant to buy them because they were so expensive, and they stayed expensive because...

I Don't Believe in God.

Chiang_Mai_boy @Chiang_Mai_boy (3882) • Thailand 13 Nov 08

Please don't get me wrong. This is not the strident statement of an atheist claiming that God does not exist. It is the regretful statement of a person who has spent his life trying to find God and has failed. I started out...

Does Simply going to Service on Sunday Make you a good Christian?

Marie5656 @Marie5656 (336) • United States 12 Nov 08

So often there are people who consider themselves good Christians because they attend Sunday Service every week, or tithe X amount of dollars. But then the rest of the week they do not "walk the walk" as it were. They do not...

What is next? Transgender toilets at the White House?

Yestheypayme2dothis @Yestheypayme2dothis (7874) • United States 11 Nov 08

Obama will now welcome transgendered individuals to work at the White House. Does this mean men in dresses will now share bathrooms with women or will they have their own potties? Why does sexuality have to be so public? Why do...

BellasmamaTiff Simply attending service does not make you a Christion. But, loving, and accepting gay people, and those not otherwise considered to be "good christians" does not make you a bad person either. In all actuality, that makes you an even better person. An even...
