As many of you may -- or may not -- know, my life isn't exactly the most wonderful life to have. Recently, one of my friends asked me a series of questions, and I thought I'd like to share them with you, along with my answers.
Q: You say you're Pagan. With such a horrible life, are the Gods keeping you alive?
A: No. The love of life is keeping me alive.
Q: You love to live. You have a lot of diseases, many hereditary, aren't you scared of death?
A: Death is a natural life process. I see myself being in a better place when I die.
Q: What's the last thing you want to see when you die?
A: A smiling face.
Q: What do you think of the fact that Christians say you are going to Hell?
A: The Bible says when you die, if you're good you go to Heaven and worship God for an eternity. Hell sounds far more exciting. Even though I believe in neither.
Q: I just one last question. How do you manage to keep sane with all the deaths you've seen, and all the bad influences around you?

A: I promise myself that I'll never become that way. I tell myself:
• I'm not going to do drugs, because I don't want brain damage.
• I'm not going to cheat on the one I love, because I love them and swore loyalty to them.
• I'm not going to do anything illegal, because I don't like the sound of jail.
• I'm not going to join any gangs, because I don't want to have people out to arrest and kill me.
• I'm not going to commit suicide, because I love living, even if my life is miserable.
• When I have children, I'm not going to hurt them, because they are wonderful gifts of love and life, they are part of me, and I have no right or place to cause them any harm.
• I'm not going to harm any animals, because humans are animals, and because animals have a right to live as much as I do.
So, would you have responded similarly? If you'd like, you may right an answer attempting to figure out what type of person I am. It's always fun to see people guessing at how my life has gone, my

Beautifully said and how wonderful it is to be free. My best friend is Pagan, I am Angel/Light Worker, yes our beliefs cross, but we do not, we do work together but we each have our own part in what we achieve together giving our associates choices, funny thing is we all do share our stuff together.
We love our connection to Gaia, God/Goddess Energy Source and enjoy accompanying eachother to celebrations and symbolic get togethers. It amazes me how similar our views, yes all is healing us and this is what counts the most. My 9 year old son is up with it all. He just accepts. We are thrilled and happy like you and I send you happy thoughts, keeping smiling and isn't it wonderful to just be you? ;)
love, light 'n' laughter

Yeah like Kobe might want to ever attempt this. Jokes or no longer... Kobe might want to by no skill admit some thing like that. look that's no wonder this got here about. that's been construction because the previous 2 established season video games. i imagine that's dumb how each and every man or woman is overreacting to a tussle. The replay exhibits Ron throwing his elbow shoving Kobe lower than the rim... Kobe got here up and popped Ron contained in the chest (no longer the neck like a majority of those biased followers are claiming). yet absolutely everyone... absolutely everyone gazing that recreation had to of had a similar concept even as Ron Artest began operating as a lot as Kobe "OH SH!T!!!!" Ron shouldn't of been thrown out of the game. He did no longer some thing incorrect. He did sufficient to get a technical foul... yet no longer an ejection. yet because of Artest's historic previous, he were given bounced. Fisher is yet another tale. yet because he's not any longer Kobe and is so respected through the form of enormous volume of people each and every of the questions are aimed in the route of Kobe. As i discussed in a previous question: Fisher develop right into a pair of spandex and a yell from the authentic turnbuckle faraway from pulling a WWE wrestling flow on Scola. that's the playoffs each and every man or woman. this isn't new.

The "Christian's" questions were absolutely horrifying! Notice how negative they were! And all trying to get you to focus on yourself, not God, or love. The real difference of Christianity according to their Bible is:
The Creator God gives you power to meet all those wonderful aspirations you described.
The Savior God forgives the times when you fall short.
The Triumphant God rewards you gloriously.
I hope you will experience all of the above. -- Shucks! I guess that was "all about you," too! I'm just wishing you the best! -- The Christian God promises you will never be alone.

What is the better place you will be in when you die?
Jesus Christ died on the Cross and Rose in three days so that you can have eternal life if you accept Him as your Savior. This is A free gift! This is the only way to A better Place!

I think that your answers to those questions display a wisdom that is far beyond what most have achieved at your stage in life.(Not meant to be condescending or anything negative!)

Your answer is "The Bible says when you die, if you're good you go to Heaven..."
That is not so. If you die "in Christ" you will go to heaven.
Would you like to know a little more about being "in Christ?"
