    Hey. I just wanted to tell you that if you really want to persue this whole atheism thing, you should read the bible to support your facts. Because honestly that cartoon drawing above is weak dude.Lol. Read the bible, trust me you wont want to put it down. If you want any answers about the Good book email me. God bless you man, and may the Lord have mercy on you. He loves you and if you got to know him like I do, trust me you will never doubt his name. God is cool, literally. Take care.

      godSgIft, what makes you think he would even want to pick the book up? So, you expect him to be divinely inspired and suddenly want to repent for going back on the christian path. And that one book is the ultimate authority on you're religion, that's sad. Do you read the bible everyday and follow the lessons (hypocritical or not) of each passage? I doubt that. And stop assuming he's just ONLY talking about Christianity. God is cool? Really? Have you met that guy? Oh wait he's in heaven since you're made this response you're obviously alive and never met the guy. I got a question for you how long you gonna wait for Jesus to come back? Another two thousand years? Heh, good luck with that. And if he loves us why aren't we born in heaven right beside him? And no that's question is not addressed in the bible. Every religious person thinks they own what their holy book means. To atheist they're all the same– fictional work written by people and that includes you're bible. Also, can you tell me Jesus's real birthday? One last question how is Christianity more valid than ALL the other religions. And don't give me that "because it's the bible" crap, it's not the only holy book. Welcome to an atheist blog.

        You asked; If he loves us why are we not born in heaven right beside him? The question is addressed in the Bible or have you not read it. Because man is a sinner he can not be born saved. However, Christ says that there is a way. It is up to you to choose.

        "Truly, truly I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God." (John 3:3)

        Jesus told this to Nicodemus who asked how can a grown man be born again.

        "…unless one is born of water and the Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.That which is born of flesh is flesh, and that which is born of Spirit is spirit." (John 3:6)

        Though you write with a sense of hate, there is something that tells me you yearn to know more please submit your questions I would be happy to answer.

    Atheists and Gnostics are right in most of their thinking

    It has been common among religious believers to look with misgiving to atheists and Gnostics, and to think that they are mistaken; however, in many instances the opposite is the truth; some religious beliefs are not just irrelevant, but baseless. The “God” of main line traditions simply does not exist. I accepted the challenge of finding the One who may be recognized even by Gnostics and atheists: the Existence itself, “All-That-Is.” If something is there, that is God. Look at the book “Christianity Reformed From ist Roots – A life centered in God” (Amazon.com). I am confident that some of your friends will be relieved of the illusion, as I did myself.

    Think about it…..Lets say there was a movie that just came out. You hear that the movie is good from one person and hear that it is bad from the other. The one that says its good saw it himself. The other heard it was bad from someone else. How do you plea. Lets say more come to you and they give their understandings of this movie yet none have seen it. Well….logical person/people… that is where you become blind. You know nothing of the source; anything you get is the distortion of the source. How can you be a critic of what you have not been a part of directly.
    What is given as hate, is the fulfillment of the word of God.
    "…and you will be hated by all nations because of My name." (Matthew 24:9)

    The end is near. Do as you wish but look around you. The bible states the end of days will be as it is now.
    "…For nation will rise against nation…and in various places there will be famines and earthquakes." (Matthew 24: 7)

    If the anti-Christ showed up how would you know the difference between the true Christ and the anti-Christ. You might think that it will be evident because of the mark of the beast. Did you know that in those days the chosen few of the Gods will also be marked by God.
    You know of the of the book and even that is enough.
    "This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations. and then the end will come."

    True, not all who calls themselves Christian are holy; they will pay for their deeds. How will you answer.

    How long has there been War? (Nation rising against nation) Has Everyone in the world ever had enough to eat? (and in various places there will be famines) There have always been earth quakes but not many in Europe (try California’s area and in various places there will be famines and earthquakes.]) All those requirements have been fulfilled at the same time before. The world ain’t ending until the sun goes.
