I find people are not generly willing to be introspective and be honest about there own motives.We belive that our lives belong to ourselfs and we can do what we wish with them.Or, if we allow ourselfs to belive in a creator,that will interfear with our sexual morays,or some people are afrade of the judgment of a holy God. And they should.

Try speaking from your own point of veiw.
For somebody religious to fall back on quotes from the bible or words that were supposedly spoken by the apostles..tells me that they cannot speak for themselves or do not know how to.
In pointing out that we came from nothing and that we should be afraid of the creator is once again heading in the direction of how some religions misinterperate the meaning of life and as to how to became about.
From what i hear preached on a daily basis is...god is love...god gave his only
begotten son so that we could all survive..god is for everyone.
And yet...(heres the contridiction)..
religions also preach..if your bad..you will go to hell...if your weak...you will be left behind...if you don't beleive in god..you will again go straight to hell.
If you do not follow the laws of the bible...you will go to hell also.
So em asking you this..
Are these the words of god or are these the words of religion who interpreted what they believe had been written. ?
