I believe in the coming of that day, and fear it, I know that I'll be judged for every action I did; every word I said and every act I commit. For every heart I broke, for every poor person I saw and didn't aid, for every murder I saw and never condemned.
My God says in the Quran:
Quote:Sura 11, The Quran:
https://quran.ksu.edu.sa/index.php?l=en#...rans=en_sh
( 98 ) He will precede his people on the Day of Resurrection and lead them into the Fire; and wretched is the place to which they are led.
( 99 ) And they were followed in this [world] with a curse and on the Day of Resurrection. And wretched is the gift which is given.
( 100 ) That is from the news of the cities, which We relate to you; of them, some are [still] standing and some are [as] a harvest [mowed down].
( 101 ) And We did not wrong them, but they wronged themselves. And they were not availed at all by their gods which they invoked other than Allah when there came the command of your Lord. And they did not increase them in other than ruin.
( 102 ) And thus is the seizure of your Lord when He seizes the cities while they are committing wrong. Indeed, His seizure is painful and severe.
( 103 ) Indeed in that is a sign for those who fear the punishment of the Hereafter. That is a Day for which the people will be collected, and that is a Day [which will be] witnessed.
( 104 ) And We do not delay it except for a limited term.
( 105 ) The Day it comes no soul will speak except by His permission. And among them will be the wretched and the prosperous.
( 106 ) As for those who were [destined to be] wretched, they will be in the Fire. For them therein is [violent] exhaling and inhaling.
( 107 ) [They will be] abiding therein as long as the heavens and the earth endure, except what your Lord should will. Indeed, your Lord is an effecter of what He intends.
( 108 ) And as for those who were [destined to be] prosperous, they will be in Paradise, abiding therein as long as the heavens and the earth endure, except what your Lord should will - a bestowal uninterrupted.
I don't know my final destination on that day; I fear being thrown in hell for the deeds I did, but I also wish to get to paradise and be with the prosperous.
Life is full of criminals and crime, there are crimes that we -Muslims- are told to ignore:
Quote:Sura 7, The Quran:
https://quran.ksu.edu.sa/index.php?l=en#...rans=en_sh
( 86 ) And do not sit on every path, threatening and averting from the way of Allah those who believe in Him, seeking to make it [seem] deviant. And remember when you were few and He increased you. And see how was the end of the corrupters.
( 87 ) And if there should be a group among you who has believed in that with which I have been sent and a group that has not believed, then be patient until Allah judges between us. And He is the best of judges."
Ignoring such negative acts and waiting God to judge them.
That.
My God; aid me in judgement day and make me with the prosperous.
This Orwellian view of the world is vile, and it is no different than the Christian view.
The idea that a factory boss makes something it doesn't have to make, then blames the product for what it made, is disgusting.
Will this alleged god also "judge" cockroaches, rattlesnakes, crocodiles, black widows, scorpions?
Or is this just your selfish justification of your own tribalism?
There is a line from an old horror movie based on the BS Catholic superstition of exorcism called "The Exorcist". And in the movie the Catholic Priest sprinkles "holy water" on a girl "possessed" by a"demon", the priest shouts, "THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU!" (Meaning Jesus demands the demon leave the girl).
I actually still love the movie, although it is fantasy. But being older and wiser I always respond thinking of that line, "THE POWER OF CRAP COMPELS YOU!."

This is how I feel about all religions. I am not talking about human rights, just bad logic. This is a parody of a real movie and the Catholic superstition of "exorcism". It is a comedy movie that spoofs lots of other things too. This is just a clip of one part of the movie that makes fun of the original movie "The Exorcist".
