Second of all, I would like to apoligize for the rash words we shared in that particular thread. You are a good person. Just blunt and/or ignorant. I really have nothing to add. I just had to ask. |

Credits: 16 Spent time on board: 2:57:16 Hours Rep Power: 11 ![]() | No, I saw Platinum talking about it in the gay marriage thread or something and I thought that it'd be interesting to get everyone's opinion on it. @Metalhead: Logic. If you're basing what happens in life after death on a book full of contradictions in itself you might as well kick yourself in the ass. And I don't need you to tell me that I'm a good person. I try to be the best person I can at all times, although it may not seem that way. And it's not because some stupid book or some ****ing monk or some other religious figure told me to. I do it because it makes me feel like I'm a better person, even if when I do try and help people it wastes my time or something bad ends up happening to me. Something earlier today was the perfect example of it. Last edited by Tool; 04-03-2006 at 02:35 AM. |

Anyway, I believe religion was primarily used as a method of explaining something the earlier civilizations didn't understand. I.E. the various regions believing the sun was pulled across the sky by a god in a chariot or whatever. Then it just became a method of control later on. Going to hell and burning in a lake of lava after you die if you do anything sinful is pretty convincing. | |

Credits: 10 Spent time on board: 21:36:00 Hours Rep Power: 7 ![]() | thats something i dont understand... most ppl in christianity (mostly catholism) say that when you die and if you go to hell you'll burn forever....but let me ask you something...why would a all powerful and all merciful god condemn you forever...he doesnt. if you read the bible it says that you burn for a time then you become nothingness. he only grants immortality to ppl how go to heaven. i cant remember exactly but i want to say you burn for 7 years...(i could be rwrong about it being 7 years but impretty sure) Additional Comment: now that i actually think about it i see that it is said forever because they higher ups try to control you and since forever sounds a lot more frightening then a few years..

Credits: 10 Spent time on board: 21:36:00 Hours Rep Power: 7 ![]() | mathaddsgdfdsf-a: what im saying is when you die u cease to exist till jesus comes for every1. its like your spirit is on pause. skymonster.... i hardly no where to begin insulting you... you seem to insult urself just fine. you go bashing on christians then call yourself one? anyways with an atitude like who made your god..well there hs to be a start because if some1 made god then who made that some1 and who made b4 that etc. well like i said there has to be a start. and as you 'ripping' on some1 dude i dont think u can make fun of any1 because most ppl i have seen hate you and you're a complete moran...but enough of this.. it gets boring flaming a moran. (my origanal thought was to call you an inferior but considering this is a religion thread and im trying to mke a point, it would only hurt me) Additional Comment: Quote:
