No need to avoid sinning, all is forgiven?

What a pantload! Your deity has never communicated with me in any way. And if he thinks he has communicated with me, he is mistaken. But how could that be when your god doesn't make mistakes? Could it be that he just doesn't exist at all?

Quote:Because all of the good things you have done can not take away your sin.

WHAT sin? I just described a person who is selfless and does all he can to help others. He just doesn't believe your deity is real. And that's enough to ship him off to fire camp for eternity?

Quote:Sin is the amomination that will not allow you into heaven. Nothing else matters.

If your "sin" is mass murder I might agree with this statement. The "sin" of simple disbelief? Absolutely ridiculous. But then, the idea of heaven and hell are equally ridiculous.

Quote:If you have not accepted the attonement offered for your sin then all of your best works are like dirty rags to God because of your sin.

And what of people who were born in a geographic region where they weren't exposed to your deity? Are they doomed for not believing in a god they never heard of?
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?
