quote: (post ) Originally posted by Shakyamunison You are right, no one is forcing me. The reason for that is because there is no hell or god as described in the bible. However, every day, in the most insidious ways, I am forced by this Christian indoctrinated society I live in.

^no, people can resist being forced, but at a price. tell me that YOU beleive that people who dont love god will get off scott free in the afterlife then. {obviously you dont}. in the end its just fear, only, sum people have realised that the fear is just made up and is based on nuthing real and have gone beyond it. still doesnt excuse the behaviour of the hypothetical being{god} in question, as long as we are talking ethics.
