I don't know that they're really that "happy." Their lives generally seem to consist of long stretches of self-repression and denial punctuated by the ocassional freak-out in which their biology catches up with them - Ted Haggard! - and then a subsequent period of contrition and guilt, during which they're reconciled with all the other hypocrites in their cult.

No! The only fool is the one who doesn't believe. Even scientist have prov- en there was an ark. You know about the story of Noah and the ark. Lot's of other stories have been prov-en to be correct. The people in the bible have been traced back by scientist. If there is a heaven then there is a hell. Hope you find heaven. Read the King James 1611 bible. The original.

I don't think any kind of hope is false. Hope keeps people going, and keeps them interested in life. Without hope, what would happen to everyone?
I'm not a Christian, but essentially, I think people need something to put their hopes in that motivates them to become better people. If there's no God, no heaven, no hell, no afterlife of any sort, what does it matter in the here and now, when such things are all some people live for?

No. Those who don't believe inhabits a fool's paradise.
When they die, they look forward to nothing which makes the only paradise they live in here on earth. Really...does this seem like a paradise to you?

The fools are those who do not recognize the truth when it's shown to them in many ways. There is no false hope among us. We know the final outcome. And personally, man I can't wait. Woohoo!

Everyone must live there life. Can you blame someone for enjoying thers, even though it is Christian? Is yours so much better? If so then start your own religion and aid others in a better life.

Christianity is so patently and clearly false, that the fact that so many people believe it (due to desire for heaven and fear of hell) basically demonstrate that there is no theistic god. If there were a God, He would tell you that a.) Christianity is a tale and b.) Evolution is true.

Even the Quran says they go heaven.
The Quran says the good Jews that followed Moses go heaven. The good Christains that followed Jesus original teachings go heaven.
But with the arrival of Islam, only this religion will be accepted, from now on.
