Who says this life is unimportant? In what book chapter or verse does it say that life is unimportant? that anything we are given is unimportant??? Who's is saying that we can fuck up anything once we have the atonement Christ offers?Hit a nerve did I? Christianity is, at its core, a method of getting into Heaven. That is the ultimate goal of being a Christian, THE single, most important thing one can hope for.
Seems to me you assume too much. Maybe you should ask some more basic questions.
I suppose those like me who remain after you're gone will spend a week or so just basking in the glory of ignorance taken, and then get to work fixing all the shit "good Christians" have fucked up over the years. I'm pretty sure there will be boobies out at the party and I can't wait!
As for where it says anything we are given is unimportant, I made no claim of the Bible saying shit. But when you consider the temporary vs the eternal, one seems irrelevant compared to the other. If my teenage daughter comes home with a "temporary tattoo", that is unimportant. If she comes home with a "tattoo", I have to kill someone. Use some common sense. I'm an atheist. I probably don't get my beliefs from an ancient book written by goat herders who wiped their asses with their bare hands and then thought rinsing them in a mud puddle was good enough.
As for who says we can fuck up anything once we have atonement, maybe you're in one of those "once saved, always saved" bullshit religions. I don't know. But I'm pretty sure that if, after you're saved, you start raping dogs and killing babies you and Hitler aren't going to carpool to Heaven at the end of days. And if you are in one of those once saved, always saved religions, relax, dude! You got this! Go out and get yourself a raging case of the herpes. Hitler's warming up the car for you right now, I'm sure. You're covered, so stop sweating the little shit like obeying God's will and whatnot.
Have you ever noticed all the drug commercials on TV lately? Why is it the side effects never include penile enlargement or super powers?
Side effects may include super powers or enlarged penis which may become permanent with continued use. Stop taking Killatol immediately and consult your doctor if you experience penis enlargement of more than 3 inches, laser vision, superhuman strength, invulnerability, the ability to explode heads with your mind or time travel. Killatoll is not for everyone, especially those who already have convertibles or vehicles of ridiculous size to supplement penis size.
