Christians (atheists welcomed): Did I get this right?!
It’s pretty hard to get my head around this thing.
So God created us, and gave us free will, but tests our faith, and if we fail the test we go to hell, and god shall not be tested, but he loves us, but will send us to hell anyway, but if we love him we’ll go to heaven, which is a place he created, where you’ll meet him and live happily forever, while your atheist neighbours burn in hell, but love your neighbours, anyway…
Fine. But so why did he create us in the first place?
Jonny: It’s hard for anyone to get their head around it. It’s a question of the meaning and the ultimate significance of existence. I could conjecture all I want, but I really couldn’t tell you why God created us in the first place (I’m an atheist, I’m just trying to relate to you a bit better) because he never reveals his purpose in creating us. Christianity really doesn’t make much sense to me anymore as it brings up too many paradoxes and questions like this.
God didn’t really intend this happen, We created this on our self. And we don’t go to hell if we fail the test. Just that our faith doesn’t grow. We must all carry our own cross, Which is obviously symbolism which really means we should worry about our self. Ofcourse we should try to lift up those who are in need , and do not know Jesus, but we shouldn’t worry to much about there problem. After all the bible says ” How can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when you yourself fail to see the plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye ” Also being with God in your life is great. Enjoy and share the love that God has for you, don’t take it for granted.
God bless.

Seriously?
God is not omniscient? God is not the creator of everything? You learn something new every day…
That, is excellent news. Where do the rest of us unbelievers end up for eternity? Goodbye pascal’s wager, hellooooooo atheism!
Being godless is even greater.
Do you say that same line to starving, beaten, orphan children with AIDS?
Seriously.
“being with God in your life is great. ” – therefore God is real.
Some pathetic argument for God’s existence…
“being with Santa in your childhood is great. Therefore Santa has to be real.”
