HELL

That is the best dancing banana I've ever seen.  Oh to be a young banana again.

And we see what happened.

What happened, GC?

He is being snarky funny.  I wonder where a good xtian boy like him ever learned such a nasty habit?

For one thing the low opinion a child had for it's parents.

Jesus fucking Christ.  Tell me this judgemental bullshit is just a typo, a badly worded sentence.

You're actually saying rexbecca has a low opinion of her parents?

How can you even justify making a blanket statement like that about someone you only know from an online community?

It isn't fair but apparently Jesus slips him the answers to stuff.  At least he isn't putting out armageddon updates like some of our other staff theists.

How very.... Christian. Anything the buy-bull says that the church authority doesn't like, well that's just allegorical.

I await the day they decide all of it is allegorical.

Such an easy concession but a bridge too far for many.  If xtians were the least bit humble about what they were sure of they'd do so much better.

My wife has taken to wearing bathing suits that would have been considered modest in the Victorian era. Three kids has ruined her body according to her, (it hasn't).

Make sure you let her know that!  I have twins and triplets, and afterward I lost the weight pretty fast.  A lot of people were like "Oh my god, you are so lucky you can lose the weight so quick!"  But for a long time I still felt like I hadn't lost any weight at all.  It took a lot of reassuring before I felt like myself again.

Back on the subject of Hell, though.  I stopped believing in god when it started interfering with my enjoyment of life. The fear of hell can be so restricting.  You follow the laws of god, and are worried every time you step out of line.  Once i let go of that fear, I was able to enjoy myself much more.

I think I know this one.  Were the triplets' names Mat, Kat and Nat?  I can see how Mat and Kat might make out okay but what do you do with no tit for Tat?

I assume most Christians think all Muslims are going to hell, no matter how strong their faith and devotion to their religion. Considering the strong correlation between the country of birth and religion in most places, you could say the Muslims are born into hell from the start.

God expects those born in Christian countries to just agree with everyone around them. But he expects those burn in Muslim countries to not believe anyone around them, refuse indoctrination that began before the age of reason, defy all their family and somehow instead conclude a religion in a whole other country is the correct one.

And of course, Muslims will say exactly the same thing with the names reversed. Either way, doesn't sound like a fair or even sensible system. Considering neither have any proof they are right, how exactly is anyone meant to know what choice to make?

They can't all be right, but they can all be wrong. (Matt D)

Besides, a state without god sounds more like heaven. No one watching you, spying on your thoughts like an eternal dictator demanding obedience. Imma have lots of gay sex to make sure I get there
