Hmm good one.
I must say ever since I signed up a couple of hours ago, I have had my mind exercised and filled with interesting ideas. and don't worry, I never said hindus or anyone else is evil
. I just don't like spending time with them (go to surrey, BC Canada, you'll see why)
Just my views as a future RCIA candidate, if you wish to read them:
Christianity doesn't say faith alone will send us to heaven. Our actions play a big part. We are to do our works with- love, joy patience, gentleness, kindness, self control, goodness, peace, faithfulness. With these "fruits" or blessings of the holy Spirit, we are to deal with others. It makes the world a better place.
THIS is why god needs us to trust in the holy Spirit ( so that we may get the blessings.) I'm not saying atheists don't have these traits, but I stand witness to say it is hard without faithfulness (belief that god will guide your heart even when you get discouraged by humanity) and joy ( joy knowing someone up there is smiling when we do good). That is why the saints gave their lives to serving others. They had all nine fruits. Maybe that's why it is called a sin-because it must be thought that without faithfulness and joy how can you have the other fruits of the spirit? If you don't have them how can you make the world a better place? Sadly, such christians are rare to non existent nowadays.
Also I don't believe in hell for non believers. It all boils down to works as I wrote above.
You don't have to believe in the same thing as me or like what I've written. just try to understand what I meant by this.
