There is only one God who can save you, He is the Father of Jesus. I know you're going to get mad and say..you Christians are so angry and exclusionist. Hellooo..if you have the truth..you don't water it down! There is many roads on the mountain, but there is only ONE that leads to the top. If you are going to bet your life on some pagan religion..you better see what Jesus has to say before your life is over. If you die w/o the saving grace he provides..your goose is cooked!!

OK, I think we have had this conversation before, but your need to leave the pagans alone and worry about your own spirituality.
What makes you so sure your truth is the real and only truth? Ever stop to think that maybe the Pagans have it right and that you have it wrong? No, I doubt you have because you are so caught up in hatred for anything that does not agree with exactly what you believe that you have to attack it at any chance you get.
Hell is not even originally part of Judaical beliefs. Sorry to tell you this, but the concept of Hell and Satan did not exist until several hundred years after the death of Jesus. It is originally based on the Greek concept of Tatarus, a place where dark souls are said to go in Geek beliefs. No where in any form of the bible written before at least 1000 BCE does the concept of hell even show up. Everywhere where you see the word was originally the hebrew words sheole and gehenna, and neither of those are hell, sheole is a grave, and gehenna is a physical place in ancient Israel. Lucifer is not even an original part of the bible either, Lucifer was originally a Roman/Etruscan deity added to Christian beliefs in 365BCE. Why would there even be a latin name in a book that was written originally in hebrew and aramaic?
You simply need to leave te nice Pagans alone, and worry about yourself and your own beliefs.
Blessed Be,

Oh...thank you, thank you! I've been doing this pagan worship for a while. You know, I'm a total idiot. I mean, these pagan gods are present in my rituals and enrich my life, but thankfully YOU came along to set me straight! Because regardless of my experiences, clearly your word is more important. Praise the Lord. I'm saved!

The LORD sitteth in the congregation of the mighty. He judgeth among the GODS. (Psalm 82:1)
Then Paul stood in the midst of the Areopagus and said, "Men of Athens, I perceive in all things you are very religious; for as I was passing through and considering the objects of your worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Therefore, the One whom you worship without knowing, Him I proclaim to you."
(Acts 17:22,23)
Many Pagans worship Jesus as ONE God among MANY. We also have traditional writings about our Gods that are in many ways IDENTICAL to those of those of Jesus.
Your view seems horribly narrow-minded to me.......

What can I say but...amen bro. Nice assessment of the situation. I have seen a lot of pagans who jump on Christians for being "angry" but the truth is that we get nothing but their unbridled hatred. They are a bunch of hypocrites who slander Christianity non stop.
@Gypsy: See above. You're doing a good job of sickening me.
@Dawn: If I drop a glass and it breaks, I can disbelieve in gravity all I want but itd still be there.
PS as for the one guy who brought up judging...
God is the one that sends people to Hell. Not man.
It is within God's ability to do so. And not ours.
See the difference? GOD will send pagans to Hell.

And how do you know that it's not the same god as the christian one, just by a different name?
And if I die and find out that I followed the wrong path... oh well. At least I didn't change what I believed because of the fear you are trying to strike into my heart.

Are you christians aware that the truth is like a bullet and mother nature has the gun pointed right at your heads..... you don't like the truth so much that you have a history and a continuing habit of murdering someone for daring to say it

Great, and I get to share a name with this jerk. Maybe I'll just go back to Christopher. God, I hate that name.
Yeah Yogi, there are a lot of Chris' out there. Guess we can't all be winners, but to call this guy a loser might be understating the situation just a tad.

Actually, I have seen mountains with many roads, that all lead to the same top.
Don't limit God to your own understanding. Why do you insist on putting God in a box...a box of your own choosing, based on your narrow opinion of interpretation of scripture...scripture that, while inspired by God, (II Timothy 3:16), was written by human beings, who brought into their writings, their own ideas, knowledge/education, prejudices and customs of the day into their writings...writing stories down that many times were handed down from generation to generation verbally.
I believe there to be one God...but, there may be many roads to him....while we Christians may call him Jesus, have our stories and understanding of him, and have a picture in our mind of what we think he looks like...there may be other stories, ideas and faces of this same God...our paths may be different...but, when we are in heaven, we may just be surprised to see people from all faiths and walks of life...who believed in different stories of their God...only to find that all of the righteous paths led home.
