^^^^^ This, Shooby. You are not in charge of dictating whether what others believe is right or wrong. That is between them and their God as they understand Him/Her/It, just like it is for you. Well, that is hilarious because there is no where i said i was "in charge" of anything. No, you did not say that, but you're sure acting like it

You can say that but the Bible does NOT say that. That is my yardstick for truth. I can and do say that. Just my opinion. I base that off nothing but my extremely good looks and surprisingly sharp intellect. I kneel before you Oh Great One!

Clearly I failed. Namaste to you as you continue on your earthly travels. [and watch out for the speedbumps of rigid opinion; they can be nasty].

It's a great pity the right of free speech isn't based on the obligation to say something sensible.

It isn't an insult, it is a joke. If you wish to delete my posts feel free as there is nothing rude or offensive in them.

Thanks, shoobs, for the apology. The remark was sarcastic, and sarcasm is often misunderstood. When it is, we do need to apologize as you've had the good grace to do.
Now, folks, there's a lesson in all this. I think it might be a lesson of which even Jesus would approve. Nobody knows the One Right Way. We can think we know, but we really don't know. We each do the best we can. That's good enough, and it's okay to see things differently than someone else. We can learn from our differences only if we can share them without rancor.

And for those who follow a different religion? They might find that statement insulting to them and their beliefs.
[/quote] ----------------------------------------------------------------------
It's my time to confuse people. Have you ever heard of The Holy Trinity? God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit . . . it is all ONE person. Thus another thing that cannot be defined. So if you are speaking of Jesus (which we are told is His son) than you are speaking of God.
I don't know how to explain this, and neither do any of the religions who believe in it. It's one of what the church calls the great mystery.
So I'm not here to get you to understand it . . because not even I do.
I just pointed it out to say that if the holy trinity is truly one person, when you talk of any of them, you are talking about God.
Now I'm wondering . . do you think this great mystery was written about to INCLUDE all religions?
Now lets delve into something else .. the holy spirit. How many people don't pray to god but they turn to some other healing source? Like perhaps you do Yoga or the like and there's this calming effect from the music or whatever, or like meditation. I am told by some it brings them to a different area where they feel calm . . . I can't explain it. Do you think this state is the holy spirit?
It's just a thought . . I was trying to include EVERYONE. I don't believe that if you live life the way the bible says (and many athiests do, they just don't believe), I can't see where this fire and brimstone will rain down upon them. (in other words they go to hell)
I stated before that there are christians that don't deserve to go to heaven as they have done some pretty nasty stuff. The bible says if they ask God for forgiveness they will enter heaven.
The part I truly don't believe is that if our God is truly forgiving, why would He condemn one person who committed the same crime and forgive the other simply because one believes and one does not?
Sorry but if he is ALL FORGIVING I believe that includes everyone, whether they believe or not. There are many athiests who are good people and live the same way as christians do, even though they don't believe.
So what makes one deserving and another not deserving? the fact that they believe? Sorry, I can't buy into that.

O.k., let's get some opinions on hell. A lot of people think hell would be hot. I'm a midwesterner, & frankly, having experienced temperatures all the way from 110 degrees to -100 windchill, I was more miserable in the cold. So, I can relate to the quote, "cold as hell". Any other opinions out there?

I think the ultimate hell would be spending an eternity with whatever brought you the most misery in life.
