from my perspective, it just appears that unsaved sinners cease to exists once they die.

so why did the christians need to invent a scare tactic that says "no, God makes you continue living so he can send you to eternal punishment''..?

i asked that why don't people say that for BUSH and BLAIR all christans n jewish are terrorists. Cause they CANT. a person can't measure the weight of a religion.
If a christian man is a robber, doesn't mean that all christians are robbers.
Similiarly, if a muslim man is a terrorist, doesn;t mean all muslims are terrorist.
For some people's information (who blamed quran as root of terrorism), u open ur eyes and go read the quran. if you dont want to, then shut ur stupid mouth. dont have comments on things u dont know! u cant find even a single word in quran saying to kill people to establish islam. It teaches us not to even hit a person before he does something to me.
Islam never teaches you to kill innocent people in the name of religion, NEVER!!
If anyone has proof that quran said to kill people, PLEASE contact me.
It's some people who r muslims by name only but got the religion all wrong.
and for those again,before having bad comments open ur bloody EYES

For those of you who don't know. The Westboro Baptist Church is a church ran by Fred Phelps. Their reason for having this church is to protest at funerals of fallen soldiers, memorial services of bad events (such as 911 and the Va. Tech shooting), as well as funerals for gays and lesbians. They think that God is blaming homosexuals for all the bad things that happen to the world and he's punishing everyone for their "sinning." Do you agree that this is logical or not?

has the "other team" gotten you to at least once question your beliefs?

has either side presented an arguement so compelling that you have had to ponder it's actuality, even if you came back to your original conclusion about your own beliefs?

if not, could it be that you are too closed minded, especially since nobody will truly know the truth until they die? (no matter what evidence or lack thereof you currently have)

please explain your answer, thanks

...after so many people responded to my last question asking, "If god doesn't exist, how could he send you an e-mail TELLING you he doesn't exist?"

Well, God wrote me back again, explaining that, since Christians insist that God exists outside of time and space (therefor not being bound to the standard "rules" of the universe, like requiring a cause or a creator himself), he also is capable of existing outside of existence itself! After all -- he IS God, isn't he?

So I wrote back, "Wait a minute -- that makes NO sense! That's just gibberish, a string of words that mean things individually but are complete nonsense when put together as a group. Existing with being required to exist? That's as bad as the Trinity -- three beings who are also one, and one being the father of the other while simultaneously never having been without the other two?"

God wrote back, "What are you, some kind of smart-@ss?"

Then he proceeded to e-smite me.

Does God's argument sound reasonable?

do you think religion is still relevant in todays world...when we have good scientific explanation for almost everything...i have always believed that religion is only the need of man to explain something "right now" beyond his understanding...just for time being until science finds an answer...u will have to agree that technology has saved more lives than prayers...as for the downside of technology...isnt the same seen in religion also...these multiple religion of world have divided more than they have unified...much of the terrorism has underlying :"religious" twisted thoughts...what say?

The biggest question that atheists and agnostics seem to have is that God is supposed a God of love and mercy, yet He sent plagues and judgements, and still sends people to hell. I have an answer. Imagine that you have a statue garden, full of statues. Imagine, then, that you have bought beautiful statue. It is utterly clean and perfect. You then look at the statues around it, and see that they are dirty. Do you leave them as they are, knowing that they will take away from the perfect statue? No! You clean them up. Those that won't be cleaned must be taken away. That way you have a totally clean, perfect garden. God must remove anything that is imperfect from His presence. Since all humans are imperfect, we all deserve to die and go to Hell. But God gives a chance to be cleaned. Jesus is like a rag that took all our filth onto Himself, and took our punishment. Then God resurrected Him made him clean, and stopped sin forever, for all who would be cleaned. What do you think?

If being saved is the only way to get to heaven, then most of the people on this earth won't make it. If you are a really good person and haven't been saved will you go to hell. On the other hand what if a murderer was saved right before he died; would he go to heaven? And what about the people who never heard of Christianity will God send them to Hell because they happened to be born is some developing country and didn't have the option of being saved?

Wasn't George Washington a Freemason? Darwin hadn't even been born yet. Hitler MISQUOTED Darwin to serve his own evil purposes. It looks like ignorance about evolution is not exclusive to Christian fundamentalists after all. I think this author's conclusions are absurd, primarily because they ARE absurd. How about you?

2 Corinthians 6


Do Not Be Yoked With Unbelievers

14Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness? 15What harmony is there between Christ and Belial[1] ? What does a believer have in common with an unbeliever? 16What agreement is there between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will live with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be my people."[2]
17"Therefore come out from them
and be separate, says the Lord.
Touch no unclean thing,
and I will receive you."[3]

If you EVER make any friendly contact with an atheist, you will go STRAIGHT to Hell. GOD of the bible HATES ATHEISTS WITH ALL HIS LOVE!

Isn't the Bible just lovely?

I'm taking a universalist approach to the metaphysical principal (sometimes called God). The monotheist take God to be The One, but Hindus see that God can be broken down into literaly billions of lower Gods. So taking away the window dressing of churches or temples, what is the metaphysic principal?

Can they? Here are my thoughts:

They cannot go. I'm sorry, but if you are a Hindu, a Muslim, or a member of any other religion, it doesn't matter how good of a person you are. You will burn in Hell forever when you die along with murderers.

God loves you and cares for you, but if you choose to believe in the wrong version of God, He is FORCED to send you to Hell. No unclean thing can enter into heaven. Muslims, Hindus, and all other religions besides Christians are unclean.

You may say, "If God knows the future, then why would he create someone just so they can burn in Hell forever when they die even though he knows they will be a good and loving person?"

My answer to this is simple. First off, don't ever question what the Bible says. Secondly, you believing in the wrong version of God is just silly. Christianity has been scientifically proven to be the one true religion by the Creationist Museum. Agree?
