If I didn't choose to become part of this world, I didn't choose to be born.

He created you, gave you a mind for critical thinking, hid all evidence of himself, then got mad when you doubted he was real? Doesn't add up.

God did give us a choice, but most people choose diaster over the V for victory through Jesus. Now why wouldn't you want v for victory through Jesus I ask? Oh it is very simple. Not hard to anwser. See we humans were made to think. If npot we would not have minds. But we do so we think. That is why we have to know between wrong and right. Chhosing is a problem though in the usa. A guy be think {uh now should I choose rightousness or disaster and 65% he/she choose disaster then ruin themselves. Because they are so ruined. See we people have a choice, we can follow Him, or go the other road. He left us precious things along the way to keep us strong, and He is in are heart everyday and He sends angels to look after us all the time. Now if you don't say that is Awesome, what is your description of Awesome?

The choice to have you in this world was your parents. What you do in this world is your choice. You won't be innocent by saying you do not choose to become part of this world. Guess what you are. Rather you choose to believe it or not you are an important part of society. One way or another you've touched someone elses life. As for God, he's written his laws on our hearts. Your conscience can atest to this, you know right from wrong but you like me don't always do it.

Because you DID choose to sin.
And it is not because you deny God's existance, per se...but because you SIN that you will be JUSTLY punished in hell.
IF God is God...and He is...
And you are His creation...which you are...
Then God can command and demand ANYTHING from you, a mere creature.
He doesn't have to be nice, loving, or anything else.
He is God...you are not.
If you create something...you can do with it as YOU please.
As it is, He created you...and can do whatever the hell (excuse the phrase) He wants to with you.
THANKFULLY, He happens to be a very loving, gracious, and merciful God...and FREELY offers you eternity in paradise through forgiveness of your sins. In fact, HE even came and paid the PENALTY for your sin already...on the cross!!!
It is YOU who remains obstinate...and foolishly rejects so great an offer.
It is because of YOUR sin that punishment MUST be rendered...otherwise God would NOT be JUST. But He is just. And He is merciful.
On the cross, He satisified His JUSTICE (by taking the sin of the world upon Himself and pouring His wrath upon Jesus to death on the cross)...and in the same way He glorifies His own MERCY in freely granting you pardon...
CHOOSING has nothing to do with being a created thing. You are at the mercy and subject of your CREATOR. It is that simple, despite how insignificant it makes you, me, or anybody else in the world.
Give it up...I am not God...you are not God.
But why would you reject His offer...and in so doing, CHOOSE to go to hell...?
So be it.

Some people reject God because they can find no evidence for Him which satisfies both their hearts and minds simultaneously. Then there are others who accept God on the basis of emotional or irrational reasons which satisfy their hearts, but leave their minds unsure. These two groups of people have never found a satisfying answer to the question of their relationship with God. Then there are yet others who have found the correct path which God intended for us: to accept Him and His message to us using our minds first and foremost, and the heart follows easily and naturally as a consequence.
Instead of searching for the answer, there are also some people who chose to simply brush the question aside and ignore it unfortunately. This is the easy way out of what appears to be a very difficult, mysterious question which may seem to have no final solution. Most of these people are unaware of a very powerful message which completely and unequivocally establishes the correct path to God. This message squares with both the mind and the heart, and it has no equal since it comes to us straight from God Himself.
The message comes in the form of a book. In fact, God has given us several Books of guidance through the years, but each one was ultimately corrupted and changed by dishonest people. Each Book essentially contained the same fundamental message as the previous Books. Mankind was expected to guard these Books from harm, but unfortunately failed to live up to this expectation. Slowly but surely, each Book was edited and tampered with, destroying its authenticity. This is partly why God kept sending us more revelations.
However, almost 1400 years ago, God sent us another Book with the same basic message as the earlier ones, but with a small but very important difference. This time, God decreed that this Book would be the last Book sent down to us because God would protect it Himself. Regarding this Final Book, God said,
"Behold, it is We Ourselves who have bestowed from on high this reminder: and behold, it is We who shall truly guard it" [Chapter 15, verse 9]
Today, if we compare the 114 chapters in every copy of this Final Book with each other, we will find they match perfectly word for word - from the oldest copies made 1300-plus years ago to the ones printed just a few hours ago. No human hand has changed it.
The rational person has every right to be doubtful, of course, if he or she has never read this book. For such people, here is a small sample of what the Final Book contains. Suppose we wanted to ask God several questions about Him and about ourselves. Short of Him speaking to us directly (such a privilege has been granted to only one person out of all humanity), the Book has the best answers one can find. It is on the strength of these answers that an honest person may be struck with the conviction that the Final Book is from none other than God Almighty. Again, here is only a small part of the information one might find

God chose YOU to be part of this world
he loved YOU so he gave you a chance to recieve his salvation and glorify him but if u deny him u go to hell but God gives u many chances b4 you die, and these chances are called convictions
he sent his son to die for YOU
he forgave YOU
he wants YOU in heaven and he does not want u in hell
he made YOU in his own image
so YOU are not a worthless being YOU are special YOU are part of Gods wonderful creation ^^

But you are here WD-40, you are.
No one has to go to hell. But since this question has been answered so many times, try looking up hell in the Search for questions section.

god is imaginary
hell is imaginary
everything associated with the god concept is a man-made invention.
Therefore, deny away. Join the team. Feel the freedom.

You chose to be born, you just don't remember. Becoming a part of this world or not takes place after you are born, best to be in the world and not of it. You should not worry about religious doctrine and dogma, you should focus on inner spiritual growth instead. One man's heaven is anther man's hell.
