Deists, Atheists, Agnostics, Pagans: In a way are we paying for our sins?

Agree, I look up to my parents, my mom is my role model and I just love them :).

Hell no. There is ONE god. My parents are a big influence on me and all this but to say they're a second god is just wrong.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
