No, I don't. I feel really uncomfortable believing in things that cannot be proven.
I feel that the ideals and morals put forth by Christianity/Judaism were decided upon very logically, and I follow them rather closely. The only difference is that I treat others kindly not out of fear of Hell or longing for Heaven, but because I don't want to hurt anyone or see them suffering when I could help.

lemme ask you a hypothetical qustion (u dun have to answer if u dun wanna, but w\e) if you had some kind of vision of jesus christ, moses, god, etc., would you change your views of religion?
Well, I wouldn't, but it's really likely that I wouldn't. If they spoke Aramaic to me I'd likely revise my views, but I'd otherwise probably think of the "vision" as some sort of halucination or a type of schizophrenia - either being far more probable.

comp- you have really expanded my religious horizon beyond christianty
demon- i hope ur theory is wrong cus it wuld get really boring being a soul without a body on earth
I am not religios or anything. Though many people I know are. And I was discussing it with my parents one time and my dad said that it may be true and it may be false, but if it is true do you want to spend an eterety in hell or heven. What is it gonna hurt for you to beleive. Know my dad is kinda religious but not like hard core or nothing. Though he does make a point. Even in all my scepticizm it is true, what does it hurt if you beleive or not. I mean I would rather take my chances and go to heven, if there is one, than to hell. Hell, it might even give someone meaning in their life. It is nothing more than playing the odds. If it is real then your good to go and if its not what have you lost.

And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
i personally dont believe anything, i think that after you die your soul continues to go on, as in ghost's but not all scary like. for example my grandparents are always around, i haven't seen them but i know that they are there

You must present your amex or visa to St-Peter. Depending on your card limit you will have the cloud that you can buy. For every slice of a thousand dollars, you'll will have air-travel points. With these points you can also buy a "I don't have to go to boring mass this Sunday" cards.
More?

If you believe in Heaven, then it would never get boring- else it would not by Heaven.
The process, as described, is not one Man can understand, but you would not get bored, that is a negative thing and that would not happen.
The whole point is that it is beyond understanding- hence the need for Faith. No point trying to logically dismiss the concept of Heaven- it was never a logically formed concept.

I truly believe there is a God and it is He who brings us to Heaven and decides who goes to hell. It is too sad to think of nothingness forever. I could never believe that.
