Yup.
Speaking as a girl who grew up as a devout Catholic, I know how it feels to trust God with your life, to love Him more than anything and choose to give your life to Him and spreading His good news.
But seriously, organized religion was created to dominate the public mentality. Crusades? Come on people. You're smarter than that.
If you strip away the sugar coating and get to the foundation of religion, there's God (or gods). Nobody knows if there is really a God, because the only people (we're taught) who know, are those who die, right? There is the slight possibility there is one... but you don't even have an open mind about the possibility that there isn't. Have you ever seen God? Has he ever come to you in your dreams and held you and told you He loved you? WERE YOU DREAMING? That's faith, though, right? How convenient...
And in all honesty I don't think this question was (though this post kind of was) meant to **** crazy Christians off. I think it was more geared towards talking to people who could relate. You know, "yeah, I hear ya", not, "I'll pray for you, because if I don't, you're going to go to hell!"
Well, for anyone who's not too authoritarian, here's a video that pretty much sums it all up.

This is very stupid to ask i mean God is real! I am a Christan and have a super strong faith I have went through so much as to be a witness of it! everyone has a hole in their hearts which need to be filled and god fills that hole and if you believe in spirits you got to believe in God.
There are angles and demons!
God and Satin
Good versus Evil
I have had a eve stronger faith when I was dealing with demons because i shall stuff must ppl don't I've seen cups move strange ppl in my room heard footstep and someone talking to me.
Of course I commanded that to go and then it did because I have Jesus with me and am a child of god.
If you read Revelations you read of this war that will be taking place in heaven and earth !
Also we become offended cuz We are very religious ppl and that kinda hurts.
You will be believe one day I mean you believe in hell that is a start but, why say that. I don't understand.

Okay, say you are in love with someone.
Other people may not see the relationship you have. Then they go and say that you don't really have a relationship with that person and that you are wrong. You might be a little offended.
No one can tell you you are going to hell, that is for God to decide
Happy Holidays

friend, you are laughing about hell?
A thousand years from now you will think back to this night, the night you laughed about going to hell.
I pray that God will show you the path you are on..... you are right: it is the path that leads to hell, a place of eternal loneliness, a place of utter and complete despair...
I will pray for you just as soon as I finish this...I really will.
god bless

No, it's not hogwash, it's the truth. We only get offended because it is none of your business what some one else believes.Who are you to appoint yourself a critic of other peoples lives?

Do you absolutely want to go to Hell? Then you are retarded!!!! Who wants to burn in a pit of fire FOREVER, with the devil laughing at you, hearing screams of terror, BEGGING for one sip of water. Wow, you need some help. If you think that's cool, it's not. So most likely, everything else you think is cool, REALLY ISN'T.

It was confirmed by the WOrld Health ORganization in 1973. They sent a scientific commission to study the miracle, took 15 months and 500 tests!
Christ gives us Eucharistic Miracles in order to confirm and strengthen our Catholic Faith!

Well, people are often offended by others who spit on their core beliefs.
Anyway, the reason I follow God is because there's no logical reason not to, and I know Him personally, so why not?
