Let's play BIG WHAT IF. What if the END OF TIMES comes JUST as the BIBLE says, with fire and brimstone and 4 horsemen and YOU end up before God and St. Peter and YOUR NAME IS in the book of life, would you go through the door to heaven or would you go back to the Earth with rivers of Fire and lakes of Fire?
How deep does your belief system go!
It happens.
Exactly as the Bible says.
And YOU are told, for some strange reason, you GET IN!
What do you do?
Door number 1 or Door number 2?

Take me literally.
It happens.
You end up in a room.
There is someone at a podium and that person says
You GET IN.
What do you do.
It's your choice, free will.
Those who decide to go back, cool.
I just want to know.
IF, big IF, it happens WHAT would you do!
Do you have no substance?!
DO you have no honesty?
Some already do and their choice is cool with me.

This is a WHAT IF game.
It happens.
It's real.
Now you have a choice.
Heaven or
Back to "reality."
It's that simple.
It might happen, so be ready for it.
Bush or Osama may blow up the world, so get ready for it.
What is your choice.
Saying the Book of Life Don't Exist isn't quite a choice.
I said IT IS REAL
NOW, what do you do?
Have you no balls!
If you want to go back to the Earth with the rivers of fire and lakes of fire, least have the BALLS to say so!
Are you ATHEISTS and AGNOSTICS BALL-LESS!
That is what I want to know.
Do you STAND UP
Or given REALITY do you say
Ok...
It's that simple!

Most of you are ball-less. You stand up for your belief system. You simply RE-WRITE the rules of my QUESTION.
FOLLOW the QUESTION
Don't re-write me!
Don't SEGUE
LEt's go over it again
IT HAPPENS
Exactly as the Bible says
and YOU get in
Maybe over some CHRISTIANS
YOU are GOOD ENOUGH to get in
Live with that
GOD finds YOU acceptable
WHAT do you do!
Is that so hard to answer!
Have you no balls
Have you no substance!
Is Atheism and Agnosticism that vapid!

Gemlli 2 That's not my question.
If the END comes and GOD tells me I'm NOT in the book of life, I will accept that.
Get it right.
YOU, now matter what YOU ARE
Are so execptional GOD welcomes you in.
I and other Christains are NOT so we get sent through DOOR #2
GEt the POINT.
It's like YOU and ME applying for a GRANT to HARVARD or OXFORD and YOU get it and I don't.
Do you take it or do you go to SUNY or Cal State Northridge or LA Valley College!
Or do you decide NOT to go to college at all!~
But the point is
OXFORD, STANFORD, HARVARD, PRINCETION, YALE
says YEAH, come on over!
Somone hands you a lottery ticket, you don't belive in Gambling, and YOU WIN

Who says if your are Agnostic or Atheist your name will NOT be in the book of life. You think God wants Fornicating Christians in heaven!
It's about YOU being a CUT above everyone else.
It's about YOUR life worth saving.
If GOD thinks you are worth saving, then you must be pretty good.
Are you saying ATHEISTS and AGNOSTICS are NOT good people?!
Are you all saying your NASTY, DISPICABLE, LOUSEY humans!
2006-09-10 17:23:12 · update #5
God will save the BEST, the PUREST. God doesn't give a hoot of you believe in GOD or JESUS.
God wants the best.
God Picks YOU.
GET that through your collective heads.
One person has thus far made a very good presentation.
The rest are just being ornary.
WE ALL KNOW when faced with CERTAIN DEATH or the possibility of a better life what MOST PEOPLE would pick, regargless of their BELIEF system!
Everyone is out for themselves.
That's why we do what it takes to get ahead in the world.
To say otherwise is to admit you want to be a LOSER on purpose!
Pick one.
Some have.
They are cool with me.
They pick the lake for fire, cool!
At least they have ETHICS, BALLS, SCRUPLES, they are NOT wishey washy.
I can at least RESPECT them as people!

I agree. We don't know WHAT IF means.
It means we might have to sweep the floors of INFINITY forever.
That is a definate possiblity.
Is it better than the LAKE OF FIRE!
That is the meat of the Question!

Gemilli 2 is starting to think
It don't matter what.
It's about thinking.
It's about choice.
The parched Earth or the Unkown.
The Unknown can be spooky and indeed it could even be what some term "hell!"
I don't know.
I know if God don't give me a good answer as to why Hitler is in Heaven I may ask to go to hell!
I want to be with people who are at least "honest."

No offense!

What do you mean I am not rational.
I am very rational.
Doctors pose this to you all the time.
I can cure you, but it will cost $20 million dollars and your Blue Cross stops at $2 million.
Rationality has nothing to do with this.
Religious and Christians have to face the ultimate fact that maybe, only maybe, Darwin might get PROVEN, of so it will be a blow to Religion and especially Christianity.
IF, BIG IF, DARWIN can be PROVED beyond any doubt, Christians will have to start spinning REAL fairy tales!
IF, big IF, all those MISSING LINKS get found, then CHRISTIANS are up a river with no paddle.
UNDERSTAND THAT
It works BOTH WAYS.
Christians have to face PROOF of ABSOLUTE EVOLUTION
Then, they are on THIN ICE
Atheists and Agnostics also have to face PROOF of ABSOLUTE religion and that there is, indeed, a GOD.
It's equal.
We FACE the SAME consequences.
Ask me the Question before I ask it.
WHAT IF DARWIN IS PROVED RIGHT.

Gemelli 2
Your right and everyone
Every Christians has to face that
HEAVEN may not be what we expect it to be
We have to live with it
For ETERNITY
I accept that reality
It seems like you do too!
Heaven could be as bad as hell
The KKK guy could be roomates with a black man!
If God decides this is how it is, we ALL have to live with it.
The ALTERNATIVE is the LAKE OF FIRE
Given that choice
That's why my question is about
Given THAT choice
I believe in God and Jesus and I'm not even sure I'd LIKE heaven
The Question is, what do YOU chose!
I have to make the same choice
After we get there
Who knows!
According to MY religion, because I beleive in Jesus I can get an Audience with God and ASK God some Heavy questions
Do I question God?
It is everyone's right!
Will I understand the anwers
Who knows
I can be dense at times!

Those Christians who say otherwise, not true.
Otherwise THROW the Revelations of John out of the Bible for it says
There is a BOOK of LIFE
And those who have the MARK of the BEAST are not in that book
That can even apply to Christians!
All being a Christains gives you is the right to talk with God directly, through Jesus.
ONLY through JESUS can you reach the FATHER.
If GOD says you are UNACCEPTABLE, you must live with that.
Even if you are a Christain!
Once you have the MARK of the BEAST for whatever reason, you are tainted
Even as a CHRISTAIN!
BE CAREFUL who you follow!
Be carefull whose words you listen to!
Follow the wrong person and you won't get in the BOOK of LIFE
OR Revelations is a farce!
YOu all decide!
It says QUITE clearly, eveyrone who knows you will be called and your name will be called (or not called).
It is that simple.
It is IN the BIBLE.
Like or don't!
That means YOU Christians!
2006-09-10 17:52:26 · update #12
Revelations MAKES no DISTINCTION other than who has the MARK OF THE BEAST
If a Christians HAS the mark and an ATHEIST does NOT
Then the ATHEIST gets into heaven and the CHRISTIAND does NOT!
OTHERWISE throw REVELATIONS out of the BIBLE.
It is SO or it is not!
Beleive it!
An ATHEIST can QUALIFY, so can a queer guy or girl. So can a Theif or Robber.
It's about the MARK of the BEAST
Dont ANY christian think for ONE moment YOU ARE IMMUNE!
You screw your girl friend outside of marriage and an Atheist Don't, who Do YOU think GOD thinks higher of!
Don't for ONE moment think because "they don't believe" yet they are PURE and CHASTE and YOU are a screw off Christains, that YOU have some GET OUT OF JAIL card!
GOD decides. Not Jesus. Not the Holy Ghost. Not an Atheist or Agnostic. GOD decides who goes and who doesn't and if GOD picks an ATHEIST over a CHRISTIAN so BE IT or DO YOU QUESTION GOD!
2006-09-10 17:58:30 · update #13
This is not about beleiving.
This is about WHO is a BETTER PERSON!
That is what my question is about.
An Atheist or a Queer who IS, without a doubt, a BETTER PERSON than a Christians who screws off.
Who gets into heaven.
My other questions is
Will the Atheist take the position or not.
I am setting the stage the I put for the WHAT IF
What if an ATHEIST IS BETTER than a CHRISTIAN get GETS INTO HEAVEN
Now, do they TAKE THAT
or do they SNUB that
That is my question.
It's not about your thinking you can feel your girlfriends bobbies and screw her before you get married because YOU believe in GOD and JESUS and YOU have some fictional GET OUT OF JAIL CARD
It's
Someone WHO IS GOOD
No matter WHAT they are
GOD says
THEY GET INTO HEAVEN
What do THEY choose to do
And I'm directing this at Atheists and Agnostics.
What is your choice!
Get the point.
It means GOD thinks you did things RIGHT in LIFE and you have the option!

I'm an agnostic and that means that I am suspending judgment on existential matters because I don't see enough proof to validate any theory. If things panned out like in your hypothetical situation, I think that would provide me with sufficient proof to believe in god and all that. In that case, I would definitely go through the door to heaven. I'm not stupid. But after God and St. Peter go through with their doorman duties, I'd like to have a serious discussion with them about why life is designed in the way that it is.

...Alright, COMPLETELY suspending reality and assuming Heaven, Hell, God, the whole shebang, they exist.
I'm offered Heaven or a horrible burning suffering death? Uh dur... I'll walk into heaven.
But that's assuming I've been an atheist ALL THIS TIME and I still get in. Don't think about now lecturing me on how I can REALLY get in. I don't believe. I won't believe. For the sake of this TOTALLY FICTICIOUS SCENARIO, I'm pretending it does, but preaching to me as though it does exist won't work.
I'm just going with the fantasy you presented. No preaching allowed beyond this point.

I would have a reason to believe in God so I wouldn't be an Atheists. I wouldn't ask for forgiveness. I would show myself to the door and go to Hell and spend entirety wonder how come the God hid his existences from me. Do he want me to go to Hell, why didn't he gave me a fair chance and make it easy to believe? But if that what happens I bet you'll be next to me wondering why your God betrayed you. Perhaps you should forget that if God does exists and Armageddon does comes all will be judged.

I guess you could be a slave to a god if you like. You are a slave to the church now so I'm sure you would not mind. Give that money to that man up front he needs a new limo.. What about the supper bowl games? I mean he needs to have a new limo to show up so to show off to the other prechers. They will be in the rich mans booth drinking a high dollar glass of wine that you paid for. You will know them when you see them.
Myself I don't believe in a god and my statement above is to try to make you understand that you are being scammed by religion. Get out of it before you are complety brainwashed.

Meaningless question. Just as one poster said, it has no more meaning thatn "What if you died and discovered there was no heaven, how f-ing pissed would YOU be, hello?"
I'll answer it just the same. If that happened, a rational person would opt for heaven as he would have been presented with direct evidence of its existence. DUH.
By the same token, if a rational person, upon death, were presented with direct evidence of the LACK of a God, that person would act accordingly.
The fact that you chose to ask this question, however, means you are not rational, and are just out to bait people to see how many you can get to answer in such a way that you can try to pounce and yell some form of "Aha, I gotcha."
Thank you for the two points. Please drive through.

The life of all souls is written in the BOOK OF LIFE.as the souls were made from the body of the CREATOR before the creation of the physical universe. ALL things were made by the CREATOR and will be returned to the body of the CREATOR after the day of JUDGEMENT regardless of beliefs.

Absolutely not. Heaven is supposed to blissful. I find no Bliss knowing that billions upon billions of souls of people I walked the planet with are being tortured and burned in hell.
I would go back to Earth. If GOD intended on me going to heaven, why wouldnt he just have sent me there in the first place instead of sticking me here on Earth with all you delusional theists?

The beauty of your question is that when you die-you will not know that your "BIG WHAT IF" had an ironic turn.
You will not know that nothing awaits you
After your death..a "BIG WHAT IF" there is -simply- nothing???
no doors, no St. Pete, no pearly gates, no book, no list
nothingness.....no way of knowing until we get there
