What Heaven is Like

Really? Because I've had many other believers tell me that non-belief is a one way ticket to eternity in a firepit.

You guys can't even be consistent in your bullshit.

Maybe you did and maybe you didn't. I've had atheists tell me a lot of things you might disagree with.

I'm sure you have. But I'll bet none of it has anything to do with whether or not heaven and hell exist and what will send you to either place...

I can only speak for the majority of Christians here in that no, non-belief is not a "one way ticket to eternity in a firepit" or whatever you are on about.

And here is where you are in disagreement with most of the other Christians I've encountered. The vast majority have indicated that non-belief is enough to send you to an eternity in hell. You guys don't even agree with each other! Why should I listen to any of you?

Otherwise, if he simply makes a confession for any other reason, if his contrition is less than perfect, he will probably have to do a lot of time in Purgatory to say the least to remove temporal effects of sin (though you can also remove them via penance and suffering on Earth).

Ah, yes! "Purgatory".... Another imaginary place! Unless, of course, you have any evidence that it really exists....
