it just boggles my mind that christians feel that people who aren't christians will go to hell when christianity is basically one of the newest "created" religions. there were SO many religions present BEFORE christianity was created so where did all these people go? come on people...let's think logically here...there were a whole slew of people living on Earth BEFORE god even supposedly created it in 7 days so explain that to begin with. so was heaven only created when jesus died? if you serioulsy think outside the box and away from the way and what you were taught to believe your whole life, does the whole christianity concept really make any sense? NO OF COURSE NOT
Knowing everything that you know about science and how people procreate, is an immaculate conception biologially, physically, anatomically possible? OF COURSE NOT
Of course Christianity is unfair..it is discriminitory and ignorant and ...how people can not see through this is beyond my comprehension...

Initially, I wasn't going to respond to the original question, but after reading this far, I just have to ask....
What about those Buddhist monks who live in utter isolation, (similiar to Christian monastic monks) who have absolutely no contact with the outside world, who spend much of their lives in utter silence and devotion to their god, and who rise at 3:00 A.M every single morning, in the cold, while it is still dark, for no other reason than to pray for the souls of this world?
Every single morning as we are all still asleep, these individuals wake up, gather, and pray for all mankind...I really don't have a "point" in writing this, except to ask:

What about them????
I think many of them are old and "retired". It is a Hindu tradition for some of the old Hindus to wall themselves up so they can meditate. Its not always permanent either. I think that Buddhists do it up in Bhutan, and Tibet.

I'm not going to address the other issues here. You are certainly entitled to your opinions, tooshort. But let me just ask this about the above statement,
If God exists, (and you may say He doesn't) is it too much to think that miracles also exist? Of course, an immaculate conception is not physically possible, but as Jesus stated, with God all things are possible!

If God exists then anything IS possible. BUT, the miracles in the bible are not only improbable, but they are a hideous waste of power when you consider where those powers could have been spent.
I think many Christians are fair in thier belief systems. Jeff and Blue come to mind as Christians who seem to have captured the true meaning of Christianity.
I'm sure there are many more on this forum who are fair as well.
We'll overlook comment since God made you so cute! LOL!

Thank you!
Honestly, the more of this I read, the happier I am to be an atheist.
