  • owning pets / animals isn't slavery?

    Cats- they leave if they want to. I've took in a stray who left and chose to be my pet. My cats have a cat flap and can leave if they please but don't.

    Animals show love if they are given love. I understand if you have a dog and lock it in a room or a cage but it's not the case with people who love animals.

    Animals have been domesticated to the point some wouldn't survive on their own.

    So my question finally.. How is owning a pet slavery? (I understand some circumstances and I really want to know)

  • Are there any Christians that have studied religious education?

    I just wondered because in my years of doing R.E I've never met one hardcore Christian. I've met one Christian but even they questioned God's existence.

    He wasn't those stupid ones either he believed in many scientific theories but also believed in God.

  • Vegan/vegetarian's view on dissection?

    This past few weeks in my sciences we could look at an eye dissection and dissect heart and lungs of a lamb.

    (Btw I am all for these lifestyles I'm not trying to bash any, it's just an innocent question)

    So I wondered if being a vegan or vegetarian would you be against doing this?

    I would say that doing this gives you knowledge of the bodies/body parts of animals for the future of helping animals? One simple example, a vet.

  • Reasons hunters hunt ANIMALS?!?

    Wild animals have no guilty conscience? They survive and kill/attack when they have to not for fun.

    So why do hunters do it for fun to an animal that has done nothing wrong, innocent trying to survive in THEIR home?

    There are no valid reasons I've yet come across.

  • Released mouse? Will it survive? find its family?

    Will it find its nest and family? Will it survive the cold and fear?

    Woke up at 2 am to squeaking and a found a poor mouse cornered by my 2 cats. It was frozen in fear so I caught it gave it a raisin which is was too frightened to eat and released it. I released it near some grass/a gap from a garage and wall with wood in the gap and trees near the other side of the gap. (I don't know if it went that way it was dark)

    Will it find its nest and family? Will it survive the cold and fear?

  • God is made up for unexplained things?

    The belief in God started when?

    It's a different answer depending on what you believe but people started praying to the God's when they had no explanation.

    When the sun came up and went down millions of years ago people would pray to gods so it would come back up again and it did, we figured out later it would've come back up anyway. So science proved that without praying to God the sun would've still rose and now we science has improved we know that praying to God or the supernatural won't cure illness like people used to think and hope?

    The things that have no explanation is filled in with God but like before when they eventually were figured out by science this is likely to happen so why do people still fill in gaps with God like they're not educated in the history of religion and how people used religion, God was used when there was no other explanation, there is now.

    This is just one belief I respect everyone's belief and everyone's entitled to believe in whatever they want as long as it's peaceful and doesn't harm anyone else :)

  • Mormon caffeine ban false? BS?

    I know some Mormons who don't drink coffee and tea because of the caffeine which I respect but I recently read that Mormons can drink coke and all that..

    Anyway they're not aloud hot drinks I read which I think they mean coffee and tea because I know they drink hot milk or fruit tea?

    But the man who came up with this Joseph Smith didn't ban hot chocolate which he had shares in so made money off? Can someone explain as hot cocoa has caffeine in so does coke and ice tea and so on?

  • God accepts animal cruelty?

    No where in the bible does it directly address cruelty on animals? Although you could interpret caring and looking after Gods world and creation, many people may overlook it does that mean because it's not specifically been said animal abusers get into heaven? They're not committing a sin?

    I had this discussion with my religions teacher and didn't get a clear answer if there is one.

  • How to write/visit someone in prison?

    I want to communicate with someone in prison, not some 'chav' that's been locked up for stealing crisps for his friends or a football fan who got in a fight but a serious criminal. Is there any way I could do so like write to them? Or visit them? Or write to them to ask if I can visit them? I'm under 18 which may impact my ability to do so.

    I don't know anyone in prison but I want to understand and get to know people and how they think and other lifestyles.
