The bible is full of stories that are ...I feel you. The bible is full of stories that are supposed to teach you something just like Aesop's fables do. *shrugs*<br />I entertained one of the ladies passing out pamphlets when I was in college. We talked about heaven and she made it out to be this perfect place and I told her I didn't want everything to be perfect cuz that would be boring. She told me heaven was whatever I wanted it to be. But if that's the case, then everybody would go to a different heaven. And what if my heaven includes you, but you end up going to hell? How does that work?Sunshynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06455919793487339872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8429808662071171821.post-10450908224586050292010-04-05T17:31:32.973-04:002010-04-05T17:31:32.973-04:00now dirty red I agree with that. I believe in my G...now dirty red I agree with that. I believe in my God but I don't practice the bible because it was written by man. I don't believe in organized religion. I don't believe you have to sit in a church house to believe in what you believe in. I don't think believing in a higher power is "magic" I do believe that my God looks over me and never gives me more than I can bare. <br /><br />For example: Last week my account was short. I needed to pay my rent but I was short almost $200 bucks. I was gonna have to do an advance of the funds which I REALLY didn't wanna do. I prayed about it and then I let it go. ( I don't sweat shit I have no real control over) The next day I check my account balance and I have more than enough money in there. I look at the transactions and a deposit for my State taxes hit my account more than a week early. That was awesome and I thanked My God for that. <br /><br />* I keep saying my God because I have my own personal relationship with My God that no one can alter or take away from me. I believe in what I believe it and I don't second guess myself. I was raised in the church but I don't follow anything written to the letter period.*Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8429808662071171821.post-75945304538042204512010-04-05T16:05:33.224-04:002010-04-05T16:05:33.224-04:00Hey Boo,
I agree with everything you said. Matter ...Hey Boo,<br />I agree with everything you said. Matter of fact I have wrote about the same shit. I don't understand religion at all. I think that it is all bullshit. I believe in God and Jesus, I just don't believe in Man. Man lies and man wrote the bible. Is the Bible the word of God? I believe that it started out that way, but I believe that there are things that Man left out of the bible to suit him. And besides the bible is thousands of years old. You mean to tell me that after all the translations to every language known to man that some shit was not added or taken out? I agree with you, live your life the way that makes you happy. If you fuck someone over, then expect to get fucked back. I believe good deeds come back to you as do evil deeds. And besides, I don't like living here on Earth surrounded by a bunch of "goodie goodies." So why would I want to spend an eternity with them?Dirty Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01508696230100618659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8429808662071171821.post-51706611297102665382010-04-05T14:28:56.949-04:002010-04-05T14:28:56.949-04:00Wow!!

I ask these SAME questions and I get the same just because and magical answers you talked about. Yesterday was a regular day for me. I get told I'm going to hell by friends because I say Jesus and the Bible is magic but I dont fret because I see religion like a cult and I know how hard it was for me to break out that mentality so I just laugh it off. Its funny though how these same people can look at Scientology and call bullshit when there are so many parallels with it and Christianity.Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07531115851792218787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8429808662071171821.post-46278383901475812132010-04-04T22:32:09.766-04:002010-04-04T22:32:09.766-04:00I'm glad I could help.I'm glad I could help.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14876923346022259288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8429808662071171821.post-61298641834850318252010-04-04T17:21:00.869-04:002010-04-04T17:21:00.869-04:00*hypocritical

It's as simple as that. What I can't understand why folks are so intolerant of my beliefs as try to proselytize me. <br /><br />Bella, here's something for you from a great modern thinker.
