Whenever I was in the french quarter there were always a bunch of bible thumping bigots running around yelling that everyone was going to hell, I wonder what happened to them. I'm pretty sure god was indiscriminate with the homes that he smashed. I was recently told god takes vengeance on those that mock him or work against him. Why does it seem he also takes vengeance on those that support him? It's almost as if random acts of nature are simply that, random.

When I say bible thumpers, I mean just that. The ones that stand on the street corner (or in the middle of it blocking everyone's way) screaming at you that you're going to hell. If that's not you, you're not a bible thumper.

It was funny, one time some dude was dressed as jesus carrying a cross. My friend and I, were drunk off our @sses and we started talking to jesus asking him how he thought things were going and what he's been up to the past 2000 years. The guy seemed to be kind of cool. Too bad all the people he was with were screaming at us that we were going to rot in hell.

Wow, I thought a ridiculous headline like this would evoke more answers.

The Bible says it rains on the just and the unjust. A lot of Christians died during Katrina, they went straight to Heaven. If you would have died in Katrina where would you be right now. I don't believe Gods work is random, everybody in this country knows that if you live along the beach there is the danger of a bad storm. All the weather forcasts said it was going to be bad, they said to get away from the coast. Some did, some didn't, If you would have died with Katrina where would you be right now. Jesus Christ died on a cross for you. He gave his life so that me and you might go to heaven someday when we die. But you have to be a believer to do that. You have to say a sinners prayer believeing every word of it. I can help you with that right here if you believe, the Prayer is simple, being a Christian is the most important decision you will ever make, Just say this Prayer, Dear Jesus, I believe you are the son of God, I believe you came to earth to die on a cross for me to be a perfect sacrifice for my sins and rose from the grave the third day, I know and confess that I am a sinner in need of your salvation. I ask you to come into my heart now and save me, in Jesus name I Pray, Amen... If you just Prayed that Pray with a sincere heart you are now saved and Jesus lives inside your heart. Find a church, get you a Bible and start reading. Its a wonderfull world being a born again Christian. If you have questions please feel free to send me an email. Good luck to you and God Bless YOU!!

prepared faith has become to materialistic for many folk to work out the religious component. To lots of the clergy have taken the stance of heaven or hell in to simplistic of words. present day prepared faith demands no actual attempt or intensity of although and reasons very few to meditate on the religious meanings. Public college structures are run via liberals, socialists and Dr. Spock varieties backed via the ACLU. they have been very helpful at killing the non secular factors of morals, and the regulation of the land via removing any component of religion or faith from the wide-unfold public area. the main contemporary translation into present day English has rendered the Bible void of elegance and that's mundane in its suggestions-set to the miracle's of the old and new testaments. It does substitute the which ability of a great form of verses interior the bible. The e book of Genesis, and Revelations are the two maximum quoted, one speaks of Devinne creation in 7 days and the different speaks on doom and gloom occurring next week. childrens decide for his or her reward now. no longer some place they're meant to pass to after dying. with none data from people who have long previous earlier as to its life, they experience that's purely a manner of administration via church to get them to settle for much less with the promise of greater at some destiny date. people who have confidence will proceed to accomplish that, people who don't won't, till something very worrying happens to alter their minds. Shalom
