Well, maybe someday I will. It really is a shame that there are so many people who don't have faith in anything anymore.
But if I die and have to stand before god, I guess I can only hope that he will forgive me and judge me on how I lived my life. I think thats how all people should be judged really, both in a divine and earthly sense.
But thanks for understanding rocklord ^^ (I think).

Aw...thankyou for thinking that i'm nice. I think you're nice too. ^^ Yeah, I don't want to go to hell either, but what else can I do? I don't really believe in god, and given my current beliefs, I don't know if I ever will (or can). -_- Maybe I should become I buddist? I like their religion. No gods, just kindness and understanding. But to be honest, I don't really know anything about buddism .

Hey Excel, you and Tigerclaw share something in common and that is the fact that you do not believe in God. Like Rocklord and the others I think that this is a tragedy, but you must have your reasons. If so, I would like to hear them, for my own personal insight. TIgerclaw and I have spoke about this subject several times and he has told me his beliefs and ideas. I would like to here your ideas on the creation/evolution argument. What do you think about them and why do you believe this way? I will not insult you or condemn you in any way, I would just like to hear your ideas.

trust me he wont judge you. i dont think he has ever judged me. i do know he tried to catagorize me but failed.(in his defence its just human nature to try to catagorize people).

Hey Excel, you and Tigerclaw share something in common and that is the fact that you do not believe in God. Like Rocklord and the others I think that this is a tragedy, but you must have your reasons. As I said, I wanted to avoid any kind of argument. But i'm not even sure of the reasons myself. Well...i've had a simerlar upbringing to ZeldAClown in that we have always beeen to the same schools (even though he's two years ahead of me). I don't know why, but this isn't a very religious area. In fact, I don't know too many people that believe in god around here. I guess I just followed the trend...but it never really occured to me to think of god as being real before. Don't get me wrong, people here are very nice and understanding to each other, and if somebody wanted to believe in god, then nobody would put them down. I've just never had a reason...and I've learned alot in school about how things work in the world. Sorry, but I really don't know. I suppose I might have just follwed ZeldAClown in his beliefs...I look up to him alot. ^^

well i think you should at least give christianity a chance. if you have questions ill be glad to help. also christianity is also about kindness and understanding. the bible tells us not to judge because thats gods job( hes god so i think he would be right)

It's tempting, but I really wouldn't know where to start rocklord. I'm sorry, but I just don't see myself becomming religious in a serious way. Sure, I could call myself a Christian, but deep down, it would just be a false title.
I don't know what to do. I was baptised and everything, but I drifted away from everything so long ago.

well you could always start at the beginning. just pick up a bible and turn it to genesis chapter 1 verse 1. also you werent truly baptised unless you believed. there is always time to change so long as your alive. but remember. tomorrow may never come.

Oh, geez, that's good to know -_-
Well, I was baptised when I was really young, so I don't know what I believed at the time. I was probably thinking, "i'm hungry," or something lol. I think i'll talk to my grandparents the next time I see them, they are Buddists, and shouldn't really care what I believe in (they are great that way). I go to them with lot's of my problems.

Home made pizzas are never as good as the ones from pizza hut though. I love going there...if only they weren't so expencive >.< But me and my friends make a point of it to go there on the first saturday of every month, which means that I only really go there 12 times a year lol.
