Every person has a god they serve money,lust,porn,pedophiles,serial killers,war mongers,politicians,satanists, the list goes on for eternity. But where will you spend eternity? It depends on the god you serve. Read the bible and see what God has done for you, Ignore the Word of God and see what God does to you. You can get on your knees and claim Him as your Lord now or you will surely be on your face later and acknowledge Him as Lord,when it is too late. I challange you, if you want peace that passes all understanding accept Christ and follow Him. I have and I wouldn't trade nothing for my journey now. If you are interested start with the book of John in the New Testament. God bless.

Wow! I'm not as endowed as you gentlemen to state that all people either believe in God or sin. I don't believe that's a very Christian attitude.
I believe many people who proclaim to be atheists, are not and some who think they are not are. Like yourselves. Atheism is the absence of belief in the existence of God, Gods or deities.
Hindu Deities are preternatural elements, held in respect and high regard; not as Gods but as the representation of blessed or flawed characteristic of humans. What you may see as worship is only a reminder of either maintaining the blessed or overcoming the flawed. They do not attribute any Divine powers to them.
But if you cannot accept they can find a path of peace and salvation through their methods then you my friend are, by definition, an atheist. This concept was practiced from 3,000 B.C. is that three millennium of lost souls?
The term Atheist, originated from the ancient Greek, which applied to anyone thought to believe in false gods, no gods, or doctrines that stood in conflict with established religions. Do you believe in Judaism? Christ was a Rabbi.
By your words only people who have done as you have will find salvation. That's a great way to say 'look at me! I'm right all who disagree with me are wrong! Christ was not even that sanctimonious.
There are are billions of souls that don't have access to your books even by the air waves. Are they going to perish in hell? What have you done to bring the word to those who have never had the opportunity or exposure to what you say. Or are you quite happy just to let your self be heard? I challenge you! Make your voice heard where people are starving, in poverty and illness. Take your word to them! Are you up to the challenge?
God Bless in the path of understanding and peace. Let arrogance be the playground of the uninitiated.

you're correct, skill and rely, can neither be created or destroyed, purely exchange variety. besides the incontrovertible fact that, like our physique rots away for this reason will become meaningless airborne dirt and dust, the skill of our physique merely disperses. memory and character are merely factors saved in out concepts. All evidence shows that in case you injury an area of concepts, the preparation this is memory or character saved there is destroyed too. The skill of the preparation is merely dispersed.

In that sense, I would have to agree.
Many people have made false gods (whether they realize it or not) and worship them. As you mentioned, it could be money, pornography, politics, etc.
However, people like to downplay their actions, and often gloss over their true devotion to their idols.
