The bible is ancient past, for me people who live by it live in the past. One can not change the past, one can not even live in the future. It is the here and now that matters. One can however change the future. It is important to realize that your actions have consequences. If you condemn someone to an eternity in hell because their ability to reason tells them christian, judaist and muslim philosophy does not make sense, then you create hostility between you and them. How can you preach about love and forgiveness and tolerance on the one hand and condemn someone to an eternity in hell on the other? Think, religious intolerance is a matter of cause and effect...

All three:
Past never goes
Present is where I am always at
Future is where I am always progressing to

I hope I'm living in the present. The present gives us our state of awareness. It gives us our pleasures and our pains, our achievements and our failures, our purpose in life. Only unfortunate people who have nothing but their memories live in the past, and only unfortunate people who have nothing but their dreams live in the future.
Religious belief has nothing to do with living in the past and religious intolerance is simply bigotry. It's true you can't change the past but that doesn't make it any the less important. We can learn absolutely nothing from the future, because we're not there yet, and anything we learn from the present is already in the past, and what good are we without learning - empty headed morons?
So much for the past and present, what about the future?
The future is "the meaning of life".

your past is your present and your present is moving to your future which has already become past itself before you entered your present. What ever we do has already been. Its like we live in thousand dimension. You choose what you do and you enter that dimension. Every action takes you to a alternative possibility. Which one the other hand is already there waiting for you. There is only one religion that talks about alternative possibilites and how it will affect life after death. Lol idont think you give a dam about what i say. Anywho take care. My suggestion, if someone wants answers he can not find on this earth, wait till they die. All will be answered. Not all the wise asses are fortunate to get get there questions answered in this life time. Cuz they ask too much and believe little. What the hell i am still writing. Bye!!!

Actually, the Bible is Past, Present and Future. You obviously haven't read it very carefully.
And nobody can condemn anybody but themselves to an eternity in Hell.
If a person goes to Hell it is because he/she made a decision not to believe. Nobody else made the decision for him/her, so nobody else had anything to do with it.

It would be a fool who did not learn from the past. And another one who didn't live for the present. And yet another for not looking at the future.
If the information in the Bible is accepted, then that's how you will live, in the now, with lessons from the past, and looking in to live with God in the future.

Its a philosophical question. modern-day is the change between previous and destiny. What we see is the previous. once you spot modern-day this is already previous. subsequently we live in the previous. to describe it with physics: the image you spot has traveled with gentle velocity from this is foundation on your eye. Then this is switched over into electric powered indicators which attain your techniques , the place you understand the image a glimpse after the form.

The past is history, The future a mystery, and today is a gift, that's why its called The Present.

I am living in a dream... ;)
now, seriously, I agree with you but I am Christian and I don't believe in hell nor I condemn anyone... I just live it for myself and I do whatever I think it is right to be done, according to my beliefs.
besos!
