Party Vibe

I was raised Catholic, then declared myself an atheist, got addicted to drugs, hit rock bottom and got saved in a Christian shelter that was Charismatic/Pentecostal, moved out and attended a non-denominational church, met my husband and got married in a Southern Baptist church, and now attend an Evangelical Bible church! :laugh_at: Confused yet? 😉

All I know is that if God had not intervened and answered me when I called for help (story coming later) – I’d either be dead or in jail. I personally don’t call myself ‘religious’ – that denotes following traditions…I am a Christian.

Religion…The start of %99 of wars on this planet!

Of course, it’s called fiction, like how the charateristics of Jesus Christs life has been used before Jesus was even born and the best defense Christians can put up is “the devil made it up”.

And there’s so many different variations, that it’s pointless wasting your time in a church when it stands a good chance of being wrong.

If anything, the bible is a set of moral stories like Aesop’s Fables.

According to the Bible, to doubt (even the slightest) the Holy Spirit’s existence, is to be punishable by being sent to Hell when you die, there’s no forgiveness, game over.

Don’t worry about being hardline, I’m not exactly playing the softly softly to you so I expect the same vigilance from you to defend yourself.

Looks like I’m out of luck of repenting all sins and being very sowwy about all the bad things I’ve done on my death bed then. :hopeless:

Which pretty much means, I don’t have to worry (If I were agnostic/religious) about committing whatever your God would call a sin and being punished for it seeing as I’m screwed already! raaa

Sarcasm on the internet.. I always miss it.

Since I do not believe in religion period, it’s just as good as saying I do not believe in anything that is in religion, thus that includes not believing in the particular section that this “Holy Spirit” has done anything for me, or others.

Since I don’t believe in religion, the logical thought is to believe that everything that has happened is from evolution up to mankinds fumblings.

A magical wisp has had nothing to do with this reality, but only exists in peoples minds who need to find a reason, however fanciful, to grasp onto when there is no answer for their pain, to understand death, famine the general folly of the world around us and everything inbetween.

I believe the universe is a much more wonderful and mystical place then saying some bloke popped out of nowhere and thought it up out of his noggin before going senile.
If there really is a God, he was on this earth tens of thousands of years ago (maybe more) and an author of illegible books.

You wuss.
Stand up and be proud of your blasphemous heathen ways of thinking!
