And said stop believing in your God and be human or I'll kill you what would you do?
I personally would take the bullet because I can not deny the transformation God made in my life.

I hope and pray that I would be strong enough to accept death.
But I honestly don't know how I would react.
**Edit**
I try to take care not to make boisterous claims. Remember, Jesus once walked the earth and his disciples walked with him. They were very close and loved one another a great deal. Yet every single one of the disciples at the time RAN AWAY after Jesus was arrested. And Peter denied Christ three times.
Am I any better than those great men were?
Peter once told Jesus he would gladly go where Christ went. Jesus told him he didn't know what he was saying, and how true those words were!
Of course, they all gathered courage eventually and I hope I could do that as well.
As Wise Old Man said though- LIVING for our beliefs is MUCH harder than dying for them. I try to focus on the Living part lol, and walk daily with God so that if opposition ever rose I may be able to stand more firmly against it.

Honestly I'm not sure if I believe in God enough to take the bullet, so I don't know what I'd do.
BTW guys, I bet your responses would be a lot different than the BS coming out of your mouths right now if this actually happened.

While it is very easy for someone to die for Christ ,, we can see by the state of the so called Christian world , that most DON'T LIVE FOR CHRIST.
The true God Jehovah requires that REAL Christians live every day of their life in accord to his commands and righteous requirements.
This means not being part of this world of Satan's and its political system of things.
John 17:16 ". . .They are no part of the world, just as I am no part of the world."
This means that we follow what is really taught in the Bible and not pagan teachings such as the trinity , hellfire and the immortal soul concepts.
Our worship must be clean and based on TRUTH.
John 4:24 ". . .God is a Spirit, and those worshiping him must worship with spirit and truth.""
This means that a true Christian will be active in the preaching work that Jesus commanded us to do.
Matthew 28:19-20 ". . .Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit, teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded YOU. And, look! I am with YOU all the days until the conclusion of the system of things.""
This is the way a REAL Christian lives their life.
It is easy to die for something , but living for something shows without any doubt that we are genuine and whole souled.

Me too.. I am glad there are still people not losing faith to God.
It is an honor to die for the glory of my God.
2 Timothy 2:11
It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:
Those people who died for Christ will be risen first to join the Lord in the clouds come that day of ressurection.
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17
16For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

Not sure what you mean by "being human", but I would say, "hey pal agnostic", and then I would kick them in the groin and take the gun and say "Stop throwing up or I will kill you", all sarcastically.

The more important question would be: "how in the world did that someone get a gun pointed at my head in the first place?".
And my answer would be: be very careful about pulling a gun on people who don't walk as sheep.

I'd say, "Hey dude, go chuck your metal cylinder in some other idiot's face, coz I don't believe there's a God, and you're wasting your time."
P.S: I'd ask him, "may I join you?"

uh, yeah, ok...you would just take the bullet.
That's what you say now.
I thought the last person that was requested to "deny god" and didn't was crucified........
just my humble pagan thoughts....

It sure must be frustrating for you, having to be satisfied with imaginary persecution instead of the real thing.
So, eh, you're not human anymore. How's that working?
