You don't believe in Heaven so it doesn't matter. Many good people (deep inner good people that is) are not Christian. Do they live wonderful beautiful lives? Are htey happy? Do they give to the world in so many ways that we are better because they are around? Yes to all of them. BUT they will not spend eternity in Heaven. THey are still wonderful people and deserve respect in every way. First off, please quote me where I said I dont believe in heaven.
Who says they wont go to heaven ? .. You? Whos to say your heaven even exists? is there proof? Who says youre heaven is the only heaven ?
You cant, nor do you have the right to speak for everyone ... only for yourself. If you believe you have tasks in order for you be received , then so be it... maybe god spoke to me and gave me a different task .. maybe Im a Messiah ... do you truly know? Or do you only have the answers for yourself?
In my personal experience the only people who are up in arms about religion being taught in the classroom, about our money having "In God we Trust" and so on are the ones that have no religion. Why do I as a Christian have to remain PC while others are allowed to do what they want? Religion has no place in the classroom, however ... I have no issues with education of religion, Im actually for it as it would teach a lot more religious tolerance.
If I may, no one here can say Im not religious, nor anyone else is or isnt. Religion is based upon individual beliefs... its how YOU interpret your beliefs... and the thousands of translations of one "Holy Book" is proof itself of this.
I feel in MY experience with faith, that the strongest and fastest to condemn another are the ones with the strongest beliefs.
By posts Ive been reading is this thread along, people with the same beliefs cant agree on their interpretations. | To me the bottom line is, out of so many religions in the world .. how can ONE be the right and ONLY one.. I find that mindset to be shallow ... no offense intended to anyone |
