What stops you from sinning in heaven?

Please explain how we can possibly know that someone is in "heaven". That isn't a decision made by people. Maybe some of these people who are "Saints" were secretly serial killers and child rapists. I would think your deity would bar such a person from eternal paradise. Therefore, isn't it rather presumptuous of people to declare someone to be a "Saint"?

Quote:Non-belief in God does not make you completely evil.

Oh, so it only makes you somewhat evil?

Quote:"Non-belief in God" itself can qualify as a grave matter--but there are many issues which can compromise knowledge+consent which lessen culpability.

I know about your deity. I'm familiar with your Babble. And I reject it completely. Does that mean I'm spending eternity in a firepit next to Stalin and Hitler?

Quote:Also no, its not "all the evil you can eat, as long as you follow up feeling genuine remorse".

I've asked believers "if Hitler genuinely expressed remorse for his actions just before he died, would he be in heaven?" and they almost always respond "yes". Do you disagree?

Quote:Remorse alone doesn't erase sin or the temporal effects of sin--that comes from Purgatory. Remorse for your sins can make the difference between Purgatory or Hell though.

And you know this nonsense is factual.... how?

Quote:Mentions sins being forgiven in the "world to come": blasphemy against the Holy Spirit being the exception to the rule.

The Holy Spirit doesn't exist! It's a fraud! I spit on the Holy Spirit!

Am I now doomed to hell for eternity?
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.

God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
