Why, I am just trying to help you out by pointing the way.



[quote:aeff7]I never understood how supposedly intelligent people could believe in such
an obvious lie as "Heaven and Hell": I find it unfathomable that a supreme
being capable of creating and encompassing physical reality would "reward"
some of his creatures for "good behavior" (what is that?) and banish others
to an eternity of suffering based on actions commited on Earth; keep in mind
that for a big period of your life, you are "taught" how to act, react, et cetera...

The only act that determines where you go is whether or not you accpet Jesus, if you accept Him, your actions will be good.

[quote:aeff7]That's exactly why I don't believe in religion, I don't want my beliefs dictated to me and if i don't believe the same I don't want to be told that I am a pagean and am going to hell. The Roman catholic church has proved to be liars in the past and thats just something I don't want to be a part of. And I don't want bible thumpers coming to my house to "save me" from eternal damnation. When god talks to me I'll believe in religion until then its just eternal nothingness with the ocasional pnaenomina that scares the crap out of me*

Well, as long as you believe in Jesus, and accept Him you will be fine. You might say, your shoving your belief down my throat, but I am not, I am trying to hel you out. You may not believe exactly how the Chrucrh you go to does, thats no big deal, the main thing is to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. Yes the ROman Catholic Chruch has done many bad things, but if you really want to see the true face of God, read the Bible and go to a good Christian chruch, not saying catholics are not Christians, but I would say its best to go to a Chruch that is not as big on traditons and works, but one that teaches the Bible and does work out of the good of their heart, not so they will get you to heaven. Works will not get you to heaven, only accepting Jesus. It does not matter whether or not you get baptized, although its good to, and as for the people of the other religions, well if they have rejected Jesus, then the will be going to hell, but for those who have never heard, then I believe God judges them justly.If you ever have any questions just PM me, and Ill do my best to awnser.
