Say a Christian tells a Buddhist that he/she is going to hell because they do not believe in Jesus Christ or God etc. Wait a minute so what happened to all those people before the time of Christ etc. Or the people before Moses, or during the Ice Age. And the same question vice versa. Such as Islam, and more importantly Judaism. Where was the Christian heaven which ultimately derived itself from Judaic teachings...? Because I'm sure the two religions have differing views of Heaven etc.  | ||

Yup, Also Islam states that they are a gazillion of prophets before Mohammed and if you follow any of those (including Jesus and Ebraham) its A-OK as long as you keep up to date. Lots of religions have a vision of the afterlife but not all have a vision of hell, Hindus dont believe in hell, but believe in some sort of heaven. Eastern religions are not concerned with Heaven and hell but most of the time a cycle of suffering and you try to break out of the cycle, they are a lot more philosophical, Buddhism and Hinduism the biggest two fall into these categories. | ||

Get your shit straight man, Judiasm doesnt exist, its just a conspiracy no? I mean the world is only 3k years old, then how is Judiasm 4k years old? | ||

All the rules and sins and heaven and hell stuff is complete bs in my opinion. Whats good about christianity is what Jesus taught like help and love each other, don't hurt others, you dont need earthly possessions to be happy etc. In my opinion, if believing in a religion makes you feel good and helps you become a better person then go for it (NOT because you parents taught you that way or sth) But dont take all that stuff literally! | ||

that's a kiddie question. if you look at religion like this you're not going to get anything out of it. if you take such a sophisticated text as the bible at face value it has to sound stupid. it's like dismissing a novel as rubbish by saying "it's not realistic" or a scientific text by saying "it's boring". as long as you look at religion like this just don't bother with it/talking about it. nobody forces you to believe, and if you run into people that tell you that you won't go to heaven if you don't believe in god just don't take them seriously. it's stupid and you can't argue with them anyway. just remember that judging something you don't understand is stupid too. | ||

So don't question religion. And don't interpret the holy book based on what is written in it. You stoopid for doing so.

Don't share your analysis and questions, theists don't want to hear it. You stoopiiid for doing so. Wow fabulous water tight arguments. I wish i could end all debates with "you stooopiiid" | ||

I wish i could end all debates with "you stooopiiid" do question religion and do share your analysis and questions, but put more effort into it and study harder before you criticise. I'm not a theist. I'm not even what people call religious myself. | ||

One of interesting quotes from Tibetan Book of the Dead suggests that when you die entities come whose job it is to dismantle your ego -- what makes you the person who you are. If you are ready for them, they appear as angels but if you struggle they seem to be demons. | ||

Here is the opening paragraph of the first article: "Christian theologians have long wrestled with the question, What is the destiny of the countless billions who have lived and died with no knowledge of Jesus? With the Restoration of the gospel of Jesus Christ has come the understanding of how the unbaptized dead are redeemed and how God can be “a perfect, just God, and a merciful God also." | ||
