I do feel sorry for the Iraqi who have to believe in Hallah and the people in isolated jungles in Africa and the Amazon who haven't heard of Jesus love. Sucks they have to go to hell for eternity. Oh well. There's a big chance that I would be born into a place that didn't worship the right god and I would have to go to hell, I'm lucky Jesus made me Americain.

Hell wouldn't be half bad if Black Sabbath and Metallica were there.

Theres no such as thing as a "right" religion.
Why? Well...because. You can't expect everyone to conform to your beliefs. Individuals will be just that....individuals. One truth may not be truth for someone else...
I was a Christian...then I realized I was believing for the wrong reason. And that reason was that I was afraid of hell...then my aunt introduced me into Paganism and my life has never been better.
Hell is a scare tactic. There is no proof of it. It was and still is used to keep people "in check" if you will. I believe its a possibility...but I do not fret because I am a good person regardless of what religion I do or don't practice.
Do you REALLY think the divine will judge you on how you worship?
Wouldn't it make more sense for the divine to judge on your good deeds and what you did in your life?
There are 11,000 religions on this planet...and to say one is the only truth is well, dumb.
Blessed Be and have a WONDERFUL Samhain.

Does that mean that the Almighty discriminated among the human races? Did he have preferences? Why didn't the all-knowing, all-powerful god of Moses and Abraham ever mention the existence of other continents such as the Americas and Australia? Why did humans have to wait for the sixteenth century European explorers to discover the existence of these continents and the people who lived there?
Do these contradictions bother the neatly arranged religious bubble of fantasies? Should we look the other way when we encounter contradictions?

When you say "we" who are you speak of. Are you speaking of yourself. I can only speak for myself when I say that I am thankful and praise Jesus for being born not in the right religion, but for being born in a country that I can worship and praise Him freely. I am so thankful that I don't live in a country where that is prohibated. That's why the USA is the greatest country in the world (even with all of our faults).
As for those who live in isolated places; they will be given a choice just like everyone else. The bible say's that everyone on this earth at some point and time in their life will be given the opportunity to accept or reject Christ. God created us with free will. The freedom to accept or reject Him (Jesus). It doesn't matter what country you live in you still have that choice. You may die for making that choice, but the Bible say's " Blessed are those who die for My (Jesus) names sake".
By the way, Blasphemy is denying the power of the Holy Spirit. That is the only unforgivable sin.
God Bless America

Do as you like. This is the silliest, most supercilious question and opinions I've ever seen on this site. Every point you make is repulsive. That very attitude of superiority on a matter that is just a matter of faith, insults every other person and religion whose tenets may vary from yours, but whose goodness and tolerance on this planet is for the identical final goal - to reflect His image. Ignorance isn't a sin, but it sure is annoying. Strive for adulthood - look it up. Heck, I'll give it to you: maturity of intellect. And don't forget: Hitler was a Christian and your observations parallel his. Therefore, I'll just hope you are trying to focus attention on youself.

I am thankful to be an American...but
I'm more thankful that Jesus is my savior and has forgiven my sins.
Yes, I was born into a Christian nation and yes, I was born into a Christian family but what makes me a Christian is that I'm a follower of Jesus Christ.
Anyone can go to church but that does not make them a Christian, anymore then me standing in the garage makes me a car / truck or SUV.
Hope that helps.

I'm calling Poe's Law on you.
Form the Urban Dictionary:
Similar to Murphy's Law, Poe's Law concerns internet debates, particularly regarding religion or politics.
"Without a winking smiley or other blatant display of humor, it is impossible to create a parody of Fundamentalism that SOMEONE won't mistake for the real thing."
In other words, No matter how bizzare, outrageous, or just plain idiotic a parody of a Fundamentalist may seem, there will always be someone who cannot tell that it is a parody, having seen similar REAL ideas from real religious/political Fundamentalists.

Promise from God: John 4:23-24..But the time is coming and is already here when true worshipers will worship the father in spirit and in truth.The Father is looking for anyone who will worship him that way. For God is Spirit, so those who worship him must worship in spirit and in truth.

Born into the right religion? You may praise Jesus all you want, but remember my friend that pride goeth before the fall, and that is scripture.

I do. I don't know whether we should or not, but I want to praise Him to thank Him.
I am really sorry to many of my friends in Indonesia who don't believe in Jesus. They reject Jesus before they even read a single thing about Jesus.
