What I mean is, were you so disillusioned or disgusted by your former beliefs that you would have just gone anywhere else?

Or did the new religion or belief simply look more appealing to you? (I say "belief" to include you atheists and agnostics.)

Where did you leave, and where did you go?

I used to be an Evangelical Christian. I spent one year as a church-shopper, then another as an "apatheist" who enjoyed sleeping late and being home in time for the race. I walked to Paganism after picking up a book and meeting a couple of Wiccans. I'm glad I didn't encounter Paganism when I was running away screaming from my Assemblies of God church.

Christians, do you beleive that there are people in heaven now?

If so then when Jesus comes back will he pull them out of heaven to judge them? In the Apostle's Creed it states "He will come again to judge the living and the dead"

This is a serious question, I would really like to know how you feel about this.

I mean really, Dunkin Donuts hates Entenmanns, Krispy Kreme thinks they are better then everyone else and they are the only true donuts. Bakers Dozen only thinks 13 should be entered into Heaven, and Honey Dew doesn't celebrate with coffee. All this hatred and diversity is making the world evil. Can't we all just agree to worship our donut and not force our selection on someone else? Isn't their roof for all donuts?

They're allways saying "I'll pray for you"

They think their god is the only true one and all the others are destined to hell.

Arrogant!!!!!!!!!

If so, would they be dusty? Would they be smelly, and if so, describe the fragrance you think they might be?

It used to be death until 1975.250 million cows wander the streets and villages of India freely.India has old-age homes for cows, where they are housed, fed, and cared for on the government dole. The hindus believe that inside each cow live 330 million Gods
and Goddesses. They say that if you kill a cow, you will be punished after death by falling down 86 transmigrations, and
start at the bottom again as the devil.
Actually, the devil in our mythology has hoofs and horns because
of the ancient hindis(Aryan Nomads). All gods to them were cows,
and the devil was an evil cow. Later, Europeans made the devil more human, but even now we draw him with cloven hoofs and horns. And the good Gods were cows too. Baal, the calf, was what the isrealites were worshiping when Moses got pissed.
Baal's birthday was celebrated on Dec.25, as the Jews thought
the Sun was Baal incarnate, and celebrated the solstice accordingly. The religion was known as Mithraic.

It would seem to me that if those who are non believers were really open-minded, they would inquire and research and draw conclusions hence rather than reject the notion of a Creator, frequently in slanderous terms to the believer and the Creator.

I open doors for people, let older people on buses first, get up on trains/buses if there are no seats left for older people or people with children...
I usually only ever get dirty looks and no thank you...
I'm 19, and a girl...i make an effort be polite to older people,and i seem to get no respect or anything in return! A thank you costs nothing!
Does any one else get this?
