just about everything you said i can counter, but it looks like temps took care of that pretty well.

I don't mind. It's your soul.

so you have to beleive in god and accept that jesus died for your sins in order for you to go to heaven? there is an alarm in my head going off saying "SCARE TACTIC!! SCARE TACTIC!!"... anyone else hear the same thing? . If god does exist, which he most likely doesnt, people would get into heaven based on how they lived their lives, not based upon their accepting god. there is a great quote i remember that is something like this: "are the Confuciuses and socrates of the world doomed to hell, while any villain that accepts god is rewarded with salvation?"

[Echo419]

Slade, please get the idea of Christianity right first. According to this religion, we remain on this earth, b/c as sin infested the human race, people started loosing the real reason they were here. Were supposeduly here to accept god, and give him the rspect him and Jesus deserve. Living life "good" while denying the excistance of god, or recognition isnt showing him respect, and thanking him. This is also a test to see who goes to heaven or hell. Thats why once Judgement Day comes, theres 7 (or 10 is it)? Years well all the Anti-Christ's and Athiast will live Hell on earth, and have a second chance to accept.

AO i could be completly wrong, i have lost most my knowledge on my religion, but i still stand for it

i bet this thread doesnt last too much longer

Agreed, mods i really think you should A) Lock and Delete, or take control... Cuz this is about to turn into a larger scale Religious vs Athiast battle

the backlash from this might hurt but i can't resist...

So, based on what Echo419 has said, the whole point to existance is to boost the ego of an all-powerful consciousness?

Woah, let me get this straight.

You're discrediting the theory of evolution because you think dinosaurs still exist? Awfully big fan of Jurrasic park huh? As convincing as pterodactyl sitings in Africa are, I have even better evidence to destroy the theory of evolution once and for all!

Well guess what! Not a single shred of evidence more reliable than loch ness sitings Dinosaurs don't exactly exist per-say, but other prehistoric forms of life do. Some forms of life have managed to survive hundreds of millions of years, even outliving the dinosaurs to the present day without having to have to undergo any sort of evolution. What are these lifeforms you say?

There are virtually thousands of very premitive lifeforms living at the bottom bottom of the ocean that have managed to stay exactly the same for hundreds of millions of years. Take Stromatolites for example. These critters are the first (that we know of from fossil records) forms of life on earth, they are so primitive that don't even have a cellular nucleus. Woah! Other than that, we haven't found a single organism more complex than an amoeba that has stayed exactly the same for millions of years and has survived without undergoing any sort of change at the genetic level. While more advanced life forms like sharks and turtles predate dinosaurs and continue to survive in todays day and age the have undergone subtle genetic changes since prehistory to adjust to climate change, changes in habitat, new predators/prey etc...

Ah Ha! TaKe that anthropology!

Oh, and just in case you were wondering God doesn't exist, and life after death is the meager belief of lesser minds who refuse to face reality - at least, that's what I heard from someone in Africa.
