Religion has actually convinced people that there's an invisible man -- living in the sky -- who watches....

Question

everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of ten things he does not want you to do..And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever 'til the end of time! ..But He loves you. And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever 'til the end of time! ..But He loves you.

Answer 1

Your way of thinking about God is not good and that is the work of satan or the demon who have entered your mind. Can you not do something good to avoid satanistic thinking?If you don't believe God, you can go on to your way without the necessity of going to curse God.

Answer 2

Have you ever read the bible? It does NOT say that if you break a commandment, you will burn in Hell. It says that if you accept Jesus as your savior, God forgives your sins. Period. The only way to get to hell is to not believe, or to believe and not accept.

AND...in the new testament Jesus states that the ten commandments do not apply anymore... and gives a new commandment to live by... " Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."

AND... God does love us, and because of that, he gives us free will, and lets us choose what we want to do with our lives, how we want to live them, and whether or not we want to believe. He does not send us to "a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish". We send ourselves there. Much like how your parents love you, but can not get you unexpelled from school when you mess up.

Know your stuff before you make comments that alienate and judge an entire religion, based on an uninformed and biased opinion.

Answer 3

C.S. Lewis proposes in his book The Great Divorce (1946) that hell is a place where you get anything you desire simply by thinking about it - poof there it is! The result is that people grow further apart from each other. You have the option to get on a bus and travel to a great plain. The longer you remain on the plain the less you desire "things". Getting to heaven is a choice you can make by following a guide to the mountains. The closer you get to heaven the more you begin to lose you personal identity. You become one not only with those on the journey with you but eventually you become one with God.

So.....it's all about the choices we make. BTW some people choose to get back on the bus!

Another great book by Lewis: The Screwtape Letters (1942). I will make you think twice about what you do & how you treat people.

Answer 4

It's not about religion that counts, but THE WORD OF GOD and your personal relationship with HIM. This invisible man you are talking about is called the HOLY SPIRIT and we have to worship our Heavenly Father in the Spirit. Jesus died for our sins on the cross with His precious blood and if you asked him for forgiveness and repent, he will have mercy with you. If we are not obedient there will be consequences as our Heavenly Father is correcting us, just like our earthly Father. YES, HE LOVED THE WORLD SO MUCH, THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON AND WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHALL HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE. Yep, there is a lake of fire and the "PIT", where the unsaved souls go and are doomed for everlasting torture.

Answer 5

who created you and all things around you? If not for that Invisible man, we cannot evolve from somewhere. Care was taken by that man to form us inside our mother's womb and bore us. Human body is so wonderfully made.


For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse. Romans 1:20

Answer 6

I would say, from your interpretation of religion and your understanding of what "the man" is and does that you have an easy decision to make. Just in case "they" are right. Don't do any of those ten things. Can't really be that hard right? Most of them are illegal by mans laws anyway.

Answer 7

Yes! perfect, this is what is said when you are still a kid.Once you start growing which I guess you have not you can feel the same invisible God in you.Your conscience tells you what is right or wrong........and this needs practice to experience the pleasures.

Answer 8

Answer 9

Yet people bend over backwards to preserve their belief such insanity. And they want YOU to believe it too.

paczjj15: I don't think that a christian creationist site is the proper source for information on evolution. That is like reading Mein Kampf to learn about Jewish culture.

Answer 10

True Christians do not put their faith in a mere imperfect human like you or any other human. They put their faith in Jehovah God. (Psalms 146: 3 -6)

What you've done here today is mere blasphemy and you really on serve your misguided self ego.

Have you turned true Christians away from Jehovah, or just made them stronger in their faith? You know what God and his son, and his word, the Bible says about ridiculers and blasphemers with their blasphemy and ridicule. You would crawl out of even the smallest rock to try and smear Him and those that love him, esp. here in these last days.

You've served nothing here today but to feed your ego.

I am never bullied nor do I ever feel inferior to an atheist. I try to always put Jehovah God first in whatever I do in life and that includes being in the face of those who hate him and his son.

They should not scare you and you do not have to go down to their level. You can smile when they behave this way because you know what God's word, the Bible says about ridiculers:

Ridiculers are, in general, detestable to others. (Proverbs 24:9) If such do not accept reproof, they will experience disaster. (Proverbs 1:22-27) And how despicable are those who deride the poor, or their own parents. (Proverbs 17:5; 30:17) Ridiculers often refuse to listen to rebuke (Proverbs 13:1) and do not love those reproving them. (Proverbs 9:7, 8; 15:12) Nevertheless, they should be disciplined for the benefit of others. (Proverbs 9:12; 19:25, 29; 21:11) Instead of keeping company with such unholy ones, it is better to drive them away; much happier are those who refuse to sit with ungodly ridiculers.—Psalms 1:1; Pr 22:10.

“For you know this first, that in the last days there will come ridiculers with their ridicule, proceeding according to their own desires.” (2 Peter 3:3) Jude says that the desires of these ridiculers are “for ungodly things.” He calls them “animalistic men, not having spirituality.”—Jude 17-19

You can and should rejoice in the face of ridiculers because you know you are doing God's will and it was prophecied that these lowly ones would come out of the smallest of rocks to try to offend Jehovah and you, yet you stand strong. Rejoice in the face of ridiculers, and leave them alone.

Answer 11

This is the typical position taken by people who make no effort to know God properly but constantly moan about Him, reality is what it is and God is the ultimate reality,however if He is an invisible man in the sky then why is He the outlet for so many immature rants, God is love and compassion and when people actually get off their butts to know Him this is the first great revelation they discover,why do you think there are so many believers?
