It's very scary...
Until I started here, I did not realize there were people who actually believe this planet is only 6000 years old, that satan planted the dinosaur bones, and I hadn't seen jesus camp.

It is more real than anything that you call real. Why would God say, "I am TRUTH?" If God is not truth and if it's not true this is arrogance beyond all arrogance. He said, "I am LIFE." Man doesn't know where life came from. Man can't create it from nothing. God gave life and we enjoy it. God says, "I am the WAY." If we are going to get any place worth getting, we must get it God's way.
LISTEN TO ISAIAH 30:25
And there shall be upon every high mountain, and upon every high hill, rivers and streams of waters
in the day of the great slaughter,
when the towers fall.
9/11 the Twin Towers fell and 3,000 were killed. Isaiah wrote this around 2747 years ago.

When I read your question I thought you may be serious. I'm a Christian, and what some Christians say to me scares me. So do things that others sometimes say. As for the rest of your question, it's the Bible that says these things. Don't play stupid - I'm sure you knew that. However, if you are truly scared, here are some Noble Prize winners who may scare you.

I was thinking about this recently and I'm very concerned by the thought process some of these people have.
I mean, if you were to take the stories that these people believe, change it around a bit (change the names, locations, etc) and hand it to them and ask if they believe it, I wonder what their thoughts would be.
It concerns me that a large number of Americans actually think the story of Noah is true, that Adam and Eve were the first two humans on this planet, that the theory of Evolution is bunk and that many actually believe this planet is only 10,000 years old.
Come to think of it - yeah, it's scary.

I just got off the phone with my Catholic Mom and heard some pretty scary things. She doesn't approve of my 'new age' practice of Buddhism and wants to me to come 'home' to the Church. For my salvation. It's the perfect time of year. I'm not really married because it wasn't a Catholic wedding.....yeah, these things scare me. It's worse coming from my own mother, though. However, I still love her even if she judges me.

No they don't scare me. Back in mid evil times that was how they got people to come to church is to tell them scary stories. We should just all live our lives to be good people and not judge people as what some of the religions try to do by scare us to come to church and put money in the offering plate.

I hate to tell ya...but it is real. I try not to lay that out there when I'm talking about the Bible to people...some people have different ways of telling the Gospel to others. I can see where that would scare people but the truth is in the Bible. Jesus really did live and he did perform all kind of miraculous acts and he still works in my life today. Wouldn't you rather live the short time you have here on earth worshipping God than an eternity separated from him??

None of the Above,
Reason: Simple
Romans 8:31 What then shall we say to these things ? If God is for us, who is against us?
and no, it isn't scary to us, we have no fear of God in the Context of the fear you talk about.

It did use to scare me, but now I have come to terms with the fact that in the low probability that hell exists and I go to it, that at least it's where I belong. In fact, for some reason I am half-excited about it.

NO more scary than believing in it and seeing that some people don't think it's real.
(But I get your point...nobody likes a bully)
