So I decided a while ago that there is no god, and that I would be an athiest. My parents got mad at me, told me I was gonna go to hell, blah blah.Anyway, I'm friends witht his guy who is very into the church and god (he went to catholic school) and he tells me that he claims to see demons and angels and stuff like that. Of course, I'm skeptical. I don't see a point in him lying bc in a way he would be proving to himself that his religion is bs. But anyway, I discussed the rapture with him and the end of time, and he told me that nonbelievers will go to hell, whether or not they were good people because "the road to hell is paved with good."
Anyway, I feel like I'm supposed to be "Scared" into believing in a god. I jsut don't get how a god (which I really just can't believe in, no matter how hard I try) would send someone to hell for freethinking, what all people do. Like, wtf?
So ya, I'm not sure about this type of stuff anymore bc on the one hand, I can go with what I believe and continue to be scared by people that I'm going to suffer for all eternity or I can go against my gut and regret it. Blah
Your friend is either a lying idiot, or he has some sort of mental disorder.
The Rapture is when Jesus comes to Earth and gathers all believers (aka "his church"😉 and takes them to heaven, which by some accounts (don't ask how people know this) looks like a golden Borg Cube, or a block of extra sharp Ca. Cheddar, depending on the angle. Nonbelievers get left behind/go to hell... do not pass go; do not collect $200.00 dollars.
Best part about it, it doesn't matter what kind of person you are, just if you "accept Jesus" or not, i.e. a child raping murderer will get to sip grape juice up in Heaven with Jesus because he said "I believe in Jesus!" while a person (hypothetical) who's never harmed a person in their life, gave 75% of their income to charities, donated their time to help 3rd world orphans learn to read, baked cookies for the elderly without families etc. etc. etc. but simply was an atheist, agnostic, Jew, Muslim, Hindu, i.e. "non believer" gets to rot in hell and have pineapples shoved up their rectum as punishment. Now, doesn't that sound logical and fair? Especially coming from the creator of everything that was, is and will be.
Oh, you better find Jesus soon, I have it on good word that the Rapture will happen sometime before September 22nd 2007... Don't worry about raping, murdering, stealing or urinating on homeless Thai children for sexual gratification, all is forgiven and your seat is secured with four simple words "I believe in Jesus."
