If you don't believe in God, Are you afraid of where you may go?

[bessie1111]

Yes, the thought scares me, but I don't want to believe in something out of fear.  I'm sure God would not want that.

You should believe out of love.  That is what God wants. 

P.S.  I am also Catholic and was taught to believe out of God's immense love for us.

if a person doesn't believe in God and heaven...then they don't believe in the devil or hell either...so no, they probably don't worry about where they are going

That conclusion doesn't logically follow from the premise.  A person can hold no religious beliefs and still be somewhat concerned about going no where or, somewhere entirely different than religious guesses posit.

The reference is obviously to 'The Three Stooges Go To Hel', chap. 1, vs. 1 ... "slowly I turned, step by step, inch by inch and suddenly, was in Hel ..."

falcon9, I've really missed the fun & your sense of humor...I'm really glad I decided to get you off of 'ignore' and I truly am sorry for being such a 'snot' to you.

To those that don't believe or choose to not care, are you in the least afraid of where your soul goes when it leaves the flesh?

i am one that cares and i do belive in godand i try to stay straight so i dont have to worry about where my soul is going when it leave the body.

You can hardly be blamed for this as it is known that I must be an agent of satan, (although my duties are largely ceremonial), according to the other xtians here.  Of course, this is pure speculation on their part - now point me toward the virgins.

So with all that has been said, what do you believe in falcon9?  You have a lot of argument against God, religion and the likes...but you don't say what you believe in.  So I am curious.

And as for the question, I believe in God, I feel the Holy Spirit so I know that I am going to Heaven.  And for those of you that want to argue feeling the Holy Spirit, until you feel it, you can not really argue it.  I also believe that everyone, pretty much no matter what will go to Heaven.  I feel that there are only a few things that God will not forgive; suicide is one, because you are not supposed to take your own life.  And possibly murder, because you have taken someone elses life.

I feel that everyone is entitled to their own beliefs and their reasoning behind them.  And everyone is allowed to speak their own mind as long as they aren't trying to cram their beliefs down others throats.  I go to a very liberal church.....I am even a lesbian and was accepted whole heartedly into my church, I am a member, been baptized and even sing in the choir...I wouldn't give up my church or beliefs for anything...and that is all I have to say about my church.

@falcon9
Unless you've chosen to be an "agent of the devil", you are NOT an "agent of the devil".    (Other christians should remember that except for the grace of God, they could still be "full of the devil" themselves...not everyone finds/accepts God at the same age, time or place in life.  Just because one has received salvation doesn't give them the right to condemn those who haven't.)

What, and remove the sense of mystery by confirming or denying such a rumor?   

[Onlinedou2]

As an atheist, i may not believe if there is a god, but don't disrespect other religious beliefs just like i would want them to for atheists.  

[Skyisbluetoday]

I do believe there's a God! But for the one's that don't believe should read the bible or bible's, hell would be scary for a lot of people, but too many choose to only think of good thought's! Hope you have a blessed day! 

[falcon9]

Why would anyone do that, considering that 'bibles' aren't valid reference sources for those who find no valid evidence of their accuracy and aren't willing to 'take it on faith' alone?
