Yeah nothing happens, no God, no hell.

So I guess that means you'll HAVE TO LIVE YOUR LIFE FOR TODAY.

Now no one can say, "well no one has ever come back to tell me".

Any questions.

If I eventually believe that Jesus was our Savior, and all that fancy stuff...but decide not to read the Bible, do you think God will be pissed? The Bible turns me away from God. When I went through a "I want to be closer to God" phase, I listened to music, went to Church etc. It was...okay. and for a moment, I thought there might be a God (might is a key word). Then I started to read the Bible, and that actually made my atheist feelings stronger! In truth, I want to laugh at most of the text. The more I read, the more I had to criticize.

So the question is, since the Bible was written by MAN, it is bound to have mistakes...can I just not read the Bible. Don't kid yourselves, the Bible contradticts itself. There is no way that a story could be handed down and still be the same from what was known "originally." But Jesus supposedly had 500 witnesses see him arise or something. So that's more credible.
What do you think? Keep in mind, right now, I'm about 99.9% atheist.

Do you love the Lord with your whole heart? Do you seek Him daily? Have you entered into the throne room? Do you bask in His presence? I know you know Him, but does He know you?
Jesus said, "Depart from me for I never knew you." This scripture is for CHRISTIANS!

I would rather stop existing when I die, because an eternity of being aware is just too long. So the question is: What would you prefer the afterlife to be?

I made a mistake in my last question. I was asking because I was a practicing muslim who is no longer doing so and I am looking for a church to attend. I still believe in the prinicipals, but choose not to attend the mosque anymore. So since I do not believe in the trinity or the worshiping of Jesus because he was a prophet, I am looking for a place of worship that kinda has the same priniciples

Can I upload my soul into a database, so that if I die my soul will live on in the computer. Like, could I put it into yahoo answers, that way, my soul can ask and answer questions after I'm gone and can't come back.

How is it that even the pastors don't say to the suggestor that it is not in the Bible to do so?

How is it that the suggestor doesn't know?

Are not the words 'satan' and 'devil' used figuratively to describe the natural sinful tendencies within us? The connection between the devil and our evil desires - sin within us - is made explicit in several passages: "As the children (ourselves) are partakers of flesh and blood, he (Jesus) also himself likewise took part of the same; that through (his) death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil" (Heb.2:14). The devil is here described as being responsible for death. But "the wages of sin is death" (Rom.6:23). Therefore sin and the devil must be parallel.

Should I tell my Mother, or perhaps a loved one? I don't want this to lead to my parents having a devorce!

Thanks,
