If I don't believe in the Christian God, and go about my life and enjoy it to the fullest (which involves morality of course), I will die and end up with my husband and best friends whether this God is real or not since they aren't Christian's either.

If I do believe in the Christian God and it is false, I have wasted my life feeling guilty for "sinning" and worrying about my best friends and husband going to Hell. If I was a Christian and that God was real, I will go to a place in the clouds where I will forget these wonderful people ever existed (which leaves my soul blank and not me anymore really since my experiences with them make me ME) and I will be seperated from them for eternity.

What have I got to lose?

I doesn't seem like most fruits. It's not juicy or anything. I dont think i can think of any other fruits which are mushy but not juicy like the BANANA.
The BANANA, it's an enigma to me.

Why did God put BANANA under the fruits category. I doesn't seem like one.


(see how i subtly put in the word God in the question. Now you uptight religious folks cant complain that this question is in the wrong category)

It's a sin to kill youself right? But is that fair for people with depression. Depression is not fun, I know from experience, I just felt like crying all the time and like I had nothing to live for and I thought about killing myself a lot. Luckily I'm better now. But yeah anyway, I mean with depressed people should they be blamed for killing themselves when its not really their fault. Would God not forgive them?

My friend who is an extremely devoted Christian is worried about me. She keeps bringing up in nearly every conversation that she's sad for me because I'm her friend and she doesn't want me to suffer eternity in Hell. I know that she only cares for my well-being, but no matter what I say, she's only sad that when I finally found religion it was Wicca, a pagan religion and "It's hard to get that stuff out of people once they start it" (quote by her). I keep telling her that I'm going exactly where I want to go, and that if the Christian God DOES exist and I DO go to Hell, I would rather suffer an eternity for my own beliefs than follow something I can't believe in. Any advice on how I should handle this? It's bothering me that its bothering her so much, and its getting annoying. I'm happy now; why can't she be?

or that I'm stuck.

How do you interpret this?

Why do people want to believe they are sinning by doing things that don't hurt others, like masturbating, or smoking pot, or having protected pre-marital sex? If it isn't hurting anyone, and only provides pleasure, why would anyone feel guilty about these things?

But many do!

Ok, heres the deal. Say your a bad person... bad enough to go to hell. Obviously hell is gonna suck. But... if you're a loyal satanist to the devil, would hell be almost enjoyable?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resurrection_Mary

Resurrection Mary" is the best-known ghost story in the Chicago area.

According to the legend, a young Polish girl (between 17 and 22) was killed in a car crash in the early 1930s and buried in Resurrection Cemetery. Her death occurred on the way back from a dance at the nearby O'Henry Ballroom (now called the Willowbrook Ballroom).

She is now encountered as a "Vanishing Hitchhiker". Several people have reported picking her up as a hitchhiker, taking her to or from the ballroom. As the car passes Resurrection, she usually vanishes. She is described as looking like a living person, speaking very little, wearing a 1930's ball gown. Sometimes her flesh is cool to the touch.
***
Once on Halloween they had a talk show on the radio and the subject was ghosts in Chicago. As I was listening this Chicago cabby called up and he told a story where he picked her( Ressurection Mary) up. When he looked in his mirror,she was gone.

Read the question, don't say **** like "That's not possible", and "I know He is real because I can feel his love." And PLEASE for the love of God don't put any of those stupid bible quotes in or I swear in the name of Jesus Christ I will ***** slap you. God, I wish that when I die I'd be able to find out if he wasn't real. If he wasn't I'd be laughing so hard for the longest time. I'll probably be going straight to hell if he is though, I know, i don't need every single person telling me I'm possessed by the devil and what not. :)

Or maybe it's in an old book, is that it?
Or maybe your truth is in the future?
If you can not know the truth right where you are, what good is it? ~ : )

If God made me an Atheist who would I be!
I could not believe can't you see!
How can I go to hell it was God's call!
Is it my fault that people think I will fall!
Listen Christians It was Jesus who chose you!
If you think it wasn't than you are a fool!
I am making a point can't you see!
To be who God created you to be!
There is a reason why people who they are!
Have you learned that or haven't you got that far!
I am trying to say it's not our choice!
Read Romans chapter 9 it will voice!
How can you tell the potter what pot to make!
We have to live our life and not be fake!
That's not to say witnessing is bad!
But without compassion it is sad!
God could make anyone who He wants them to be!
Because it is His choice now can you see!
The End!

A close friend to my husband and I commited suicide 2 yrs ago. He and his family were Catholic. I often worry about his soul and where it may be. And I worry about his mother....and what must she must be thinking (will I ever see him again? etc)

I don't know much at all about the Catholic religion. Is it believed that your soul will go to hell if you terminate your own life? Or is there a chance of forgiveness?

Doesn't this slightly weaken the moral relativistic viewpoint?

New Earth creationists claim that the Universe is about 6000 years old. Ok, if the Universe is 6000 years old, answer this. We know the speed of light is about 3.0x10^8 meters per second. A light year is the distance light travels in one year. Some of the galaxies astronomers can see with telescopes are millions of light years away from us. That means that the light from these galaxies would take millions of years to reach us. If it takes millions of years for the light to reach us, then obviously 6000 years is not enough time for the light from these galaxies to have reached us. If the Universe is only 6000 years old, then why can we already see the light from these galaxies?

Whether you're agnostic or just a wayward something else. Do you ever pray to have some sort of religious experience?
