No, and I think Christianity is a cult!! Oh no! Did I just really say that??? Yes I did. I believe in God. And I believe Jesus died on the cross to save me from my sins. But let me tell you, I haven't seen anywhere in the bible that says you're going to hell just cause you don't go to church. Also, may I add. In the original version of the bible, look it up, the word "Hell" does not exist!!! It says you will go through a cleansing of fire and brimstone. A CLEANSING! It doesn't say you will spend eternity there! Why would God create all of these people in this world, just to kill off half of them because they have sinned? And another thing! Jesus died to save us from ALL OF OUR SINS. He died to forgive us. We've been forgiven. Doesn't mean we need to live life in sin all the time. Just know that you will be going to Heaven one way or another. I don't know how it all works, but I do know that I'm not worried about getting into Heaven. I'll get there when the time comes. As for being Athiest, I dunno hon, but I'm positive you'll make it there too one day. Don't worry about what people say about Athiests. People are too closed-minded these days to even CONSIDER what you to believe to be any kind of possibilty. Do what you gotta do. I'm open-minded. I believe that if there is a possiblity of our Christian God existing, why is it not possible for other god-types to exist?

It's interesting that most of your questions generalize the whole christian population into one voice. I prefer not to be coupled with people that call themselves christian but, in reality are not. Not all Christians interpret the bible the same, I'm sure you know that by now. Therefore, my suggestion is to be more specific when you refer to a christian group as there are many. In addition, I'll exhaust this again and say that radical/tyrannical islamists also don't like Christians, but as a whole. Now that is one group I can honestly say bag/hate all Christians regardless of the denomination. Secondly, if the commandments are broken it does not mean you are necessarily atheist, it means you have sinned. And if you recognize that the commandments as law then you are not an atheist. If you don't care about the commandments and find them invalid, as well as the source from which they came then you are an atheist. So from what I can tell so far that would be my assumption about you. To accept one commandment as a non-atheist, you would need to accept all commandments, as well as it's source and history.

Probably because they are "stoned" (Religion is the Opiate of the Masses) and drug crazed people cannot think/act in a responsible/rationale manner. Look at all the religion based laws in this country: no alcoholic beverages in some areas, no alcoholic beverages sold on Sunday, no nudity in private clubs, can't say the name of their Deity in public when used as a expletive, Can't teach children a religion, unless it is THEIR religion, in public schools (anyone remember the big fervor the Christians had about "Humanism" about 20 yrs ago? Now when it is their religion that is the subject of the debate they have made an "about face" on the subject). Blessed Be! Nye

Finally! I was about to mention that myself. I'm also Pagan and though I try to be open-minded and respect all religions, I do "bag" on Christians too. Atheists and Christians aren't the only people in this world as some people seem to think.

That doesn't make you atheists no, but I just hope you would give Christianity a look and not just put it down.
I believe the reason you rarely see other religions bash any other religions other than Christianity is because Christianity is the truth. And its easier to accept a lie than truth.
You can say I am imposing my beliefs on you, it doesn't matter to me, but I have no benefit from you becoming Christian and going to Heaven than becoming anything else or staying the way you are.

We expect you to bag on use. God has told us that people who don't understand the truth that all human beings are Gods children will ridicule and judge us.
God created you to have a relationship. You have stepped away from that relationship by praying to other gods which are really just false gods that Satan has put in front of you to distract you.

So, are you trying to get Christians to bash on you so you can justify whatever you'd like about them? It is obvious that not only athiests hate Christians; the Bible tells us to expect it from everybody, as the world is against the Truth.
