How about a respectful religious vs non-religious discussion?

For an amazingly accurate visualization of the "bible belt" and the efficacy of religious sexual educational programs, see "STD Cases By County In 2014" on this page:

I would have just posted the image, but I don't think we're allowed to do that. At least you see the full context.

Alaska... Wow. People must be trying to stay warm a whole lot.

The Bible Belt is a real dichotomy. I've lived all over the south and I know that while a great number of 'religious' people live here the opposite is also true. There are people who might give lip service to religion at weddings and funeral but as far as the rest of their lives go...they do what they want. If anything there are many 'different Souths' that exist side by side. Person over here could be in church every time the doors are open while their neighbor is the stereotypical hard drinking violent lawbreaking redneck. While I am sure there are religious people contracting the STDs (the two sides do mix after all) I would say they probably aren't the ones represented in the study.
And no, I'm not saying if you are not religious then you are by default a redneck. There are also varying categories in between the two extremes.

Religious or not, they all suffer from the same (lack of) sex ed.
 
Love is what?
Time or now is when?
God is who?

There,,.. I need two respectful responses for each question from either side of the fence, where the grass is greener on the other side of the fence. If you can? Anybody can answer for both sides of the fence.
 
So there's a guy on second, and he has a name, and his wife has a name, and it's the same name as his and her name is...
 
Ok great everyone was ready for questioning the baseball game,..np

What if nothing ever happened would you be happy or sad? Why?

Remember what you did before they judged it, what was it? Exactly?

What are our dreams if all things already happened?

What makes positive events positive? Why?
