What is with you wildly religious people? I simply ask a small thought provoking question "What do you think would be the worst way to die is?" and you flock (get it, flock?) to say "unsaved". Oh wow, what an incredibly deep answer. If there were a god he put you here to think for yourselves and not go through life with any true thought of your own. It's just a simple little just for fun what if question. Why must everything be this big religious thing? FYI: I am so holding back and refraining from giving the big "what I think would be the worst way to live' speech with wasting your life chasing false icons as opposed to living a life for yourself and making any kind of real impact on the world. Now you can all pray for me and feel like you did something special for mankind or something, and shake your head or shed a tear for the poor lost lil soul but count all the millions of times you give your opinions without caring if people want to hear. But you KNOW you're right, huh? So do I.

You know what I don't get, and perhaps someone can explain this to me - why the need to follow an organized religion? God gave us intelligence, curiosity, the itch to explore - why not use them? God gave us a lot of gifts, and it seems that religion, the mass organized kind, tries to stifle some of that.
It seems to me that we so misunderstand God, if he exists (agnostic here - remember - I'm not liked by either the atheists or religious types :) that he would disown us if he knew what we were doing in his name.

What is the proper way to utilize the question mark? You look like a total tool when the first part of your question says, "This is not a question" and then the end of your "non-question" has a question mark.
How do you know that person wasn't truly being honest when they answered you with unsaved. To almost every one of a religious (and for that matter nonreligious) nature it is very comforting to know that there is a heaven, and that they might gain attendance in it if they follow the laws set forth by their beliefs. That "sheep" who answered you with unsaved most likely meant it; because to that person death no matter how long or painful is only a temporary action, and eternal life achieved through salvation is forever.

Feel better now? Yes, it's a just- for fun question, but, even if you don't believe it, if you did, the worst way to die would be to be unsaved, wouldn't it? Notice I said if you DID believe.
No, I don't understand the flock thing, and if you didn't want RELIGIOus people to answer, why put it under RELIGIOn and Spirituality?

Yeah I can see your frustration. On behalf of all Christians I are sorry that you are frustrated with wildly religious people. I guess sometimes we have to learn to have a little fun. We ALL give our opinions here without caring if people want to hear. It is called the thumbs up/down. Even answering questions can be seen as this. When people 'diss' other religions, and I am not just talking about Christianity, they are essentially not caring what people of this religion think. Happens everywhere

HI as to your question, I think drowining would be the worst, no you are not unsaved, that is between you and God. I cannot pray for you to become "saved" I can pray that you have the right heart condition to start looking for the true God. That's about it. Have a good evening.

Sorry I missed that question.
You are so right, if a bit rambling.
To answer your original question "What do you think would be the worst way to die?"
My answer to that question would be slowly and painfully, trapped in a car or other situation that I couldn't be rescued from. Either that or in a fire, and most definitely alone (in both situations)

I thought this was a question board... I'm sorry, I must be in the wrong place!
Boy am I embarrassed! This is almost as embarrassing as that time I played Marco Polo with Helen Keller!

what you've done here, is prove to everyone just how "wildly religious" you are yourself. After your opinionated tirade, I'm sure there will be several converts to your way of thinking.
ps, this is the religion and spirituality forum - hence the "wildly religious people"

I missed the earlier question about dying
I'd have to say drowning
I prefer to ask the sheep funny or insulting questions
