We believe that this is not very pleasant if you are created to live with him forever – it’s like a fish somehow surviving out of water. So, once again, it has to do with freedom. If you really don’t want to live with God forever, you can make that choice." - So you are saying Hell is the same as earth but without all the religious people? Sounds great to me! “Hell is living in the absence of God. We believe that this is not very pleasant if you are created to live with him forever – it’s like a fish somehow surviving out of water.

Some say God created a man in his image, others say God created a man and a woman in his image.

When you take your final breath and leave those you love behind in grief, then you will see. But then it'll be too late. When you die and you will die, we will all die.

Atheism is not the same thing as evolution which is again different from the big bang theory. As an atheist, I don't really believe in the big bang, no one knows for sure how life started. Lets pretend there is a god though, who's to say that he did not use the big bang and evolution to create life. God would be powerful enough to do that and you don't know how he created the universe.

In fact the "Bible" as such only came to being quite some time after the New Testament was already written. There was some debate as to which books were to be included (inspired by God) and after a time of discernment, the Church defined the canon (list of books). Once the books had circulated, however, no books have been changed, and once the canon was decided (obviously our Jewish brothers and sisters decided upon a different canon, which only included most of the books in our Old Testament) it has never been changed.

The most obvious change is the NEW TESTAMANT. If people want to believe in God then let them. But don't go trying to convert those of us that choose not to.

Revenge is something to avoid, not pursue. I think it was Gandhi who said, "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind."
