*Fashion*
A reason to dislike fashion is that it's considered normal to have an interest in fashion. If you have clothes that are totally out of fashion, there is a big chance a lot of people will think less of you and they might make fun of you. I don't see why an interest in fashion should be considered greater than an interest in anything else. Because it's a cold fact of life that when people look at you they make an opinion about you. Thats why people turn up to board rooms with suits on and not jeans and a t-shirt. I agree that it shouldn't be more of an interest than anything else, but it is. I don't care what you wear, but i find it interesting a reason to dislike what others wear is because a minority of people may possibly look down on you. Seems quite a stereotypical view for someone who thinks they are a victim of stereotyping.

Why do people hate people who follow fashion, live and let live... Maybe they like to follow fashion, just as you like to choose not to and be "rebel".

MY questions to extremest in fundamentalism...
Those may not be the cities of Sodom and Gamorrah, some beleive them to be underwater. Those places also lie on tectonic plates, with oil and natural gases underneath them. Where have they represented the word era? A day means a day and it meant the same as it does now back then. When God says day to Moses he is saying day not "era" or "vast period of time".

MY questions to extremest in fundamentalism...
Dinosaurs would be among the beasts of the fields mentioned in Genesis. For all we know, God began his shift towards preparing Earth for Man millions of years ago, clearing out predators that would present a drastic challenge for Man to survive amongst. He would have known that Man would eat the fruit, and therefore be expelled from Eden and have to face predators. Oh please. Excellent argument. And I'd thought this topic was going to diminish into some anti-Fundamentalist topic. And I am serious on both counts. His questions are addressed to me, not you. Why wouldn't he smash them with rocks? He took down Sodom and Gamorrah with burning sulphur from the sky, didn't he? Which by the way has archeological evidence to support it. That's right, buy a plane ticket and go to the Middle East right now. Unfortunately the ruins of Sodom and Gamorrah are in a war zone right now, but you will plainly be able to see yellow dirt within the walls of the city. The sulphuric content of these cities is among the highest on Earth. And it stops at the walls. Here an article from the BBC which puts it down to nature. So if his days didn't exist why would he ever say to Moses that it took him a time period of days when it's clear Moses would understand that day meant 24 hours? Theres no rational explanation as to why God would say "day" rather than "a long time" or "Next I created...". Day is there and it specifically means day.

Would this be weird?
This is a bit different though... Oh and this is a stupid question, but the highlights will make all of my hair brighter or just put streaks into it? I'm 15 and I'm not sure if that kind of thing isn't "cool" anymore. I know some 8th graders that do it but I don't notice any freshmen. Just streaks into it, bleached hair on guys looks stupid. I don't see why you want to make it more blonde, if you do the only way to make it look nice and blonder is streaks. Depends what style your going for though i guess. If your having short hair, highlights.

Dont bleach it, just add highlights in a blonder color to it.

MY questions to extremest in fundamentalism...
I think your grasping at straws when you say God meant days in his time. If he is not bound by time, he isn't bound by days. If he is not bound by days he wouldn't have put a specific time on it. If he wanted to give Moses something he was able to understand he would have just said over a long period of time. The Bible specifically says days, no one would say days and mean millions of billions of years when their talking to a human who takes days as 24 hours. If Moses couldn't understand a time period longer than a day then i hardley think he is an intelligent reliable source to note all of what God says while stuck in a dessert in those conditions. If God began clearing out the predetors then why is there giant creators in the earth showing a metiorite colliding with us? Did God take a break that day or did he smash a rock into the earth himself to get rid of them?

*Fashion*
Fred Perry? Lacoste? Berghaus? People happily pay for a Fred Perry shirt or Beghaus coat, just because they are 'fashionable'. I regularly have fun poked at me for my Krakatakazatizani (no idea how you really spell it) coat, when everyone else is wearing addidas tracksuit tops and fred perry jumpers. Depends how old you and your friends are, and where you live. For me, no one gives a damn what you wear and you'd probably be made fun of more than anything if you wore those things. It doesn't matter who makes what at all. It's the person's attractiveness!

Not caring?
If you have a problem fix it, start eating right and being active and you will feel better about yourself. Or confront the people who are being jerks.

Same, it's fun! Yes, here in England most young people don't care what any particular clothing is made by, it's the person who carries it off.

MY questions to extremest in fundamentalism...
i realize that...but to me evidence points towards a God, and things in the Bible just shout out to me (if you'd like i guess i'll go over those things) Darwin once said "If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed, which could not possibly have been formed by numerous, successive, slight modifications, my theory would absolutely break down. But I can find no such case." and just look at the cell: http://youtube.com/watch?v=jjexZ88wIno "a God" however doesn't mean your God. I'm agnostic, i think being atheist is the same as being religious so i don't know whether a God does or does not exist. It would be crazy to say either way. However things like the video to me shout out that we are only the made up of particles and nothing more. I can see and agree why people could think a God does exist, but nothing at all points to a specific God.

Are you going to Heaven or Hell?
I agree it's not clearly shown on earth. Then how could you say that an infinitley compassionate God would allow anyone to go to hell when he himself has made his existance so questionable in the first place? If this was the case, it does not point to a specific God. However the christian God, to avoid hell requires you to put all your faith into him alone. Coupled with the above point, not compassionate. Up-bringing, culture, denying our contingency, enforcing our skewed opinions onto others by calling them divine, controlling societys, hope, wishful thinking, assurance ect.
