Why Is Being Non Religious Such A Bad Thing.. When Every Day I'm Forced To Be? I think the whole religious crap is really stupid because its against gays. And I don't give a crap who you are that isn't right! they should be able to love just as everyone else can! And That I always get comments and people tell me i'm going to hell.. that isn't right either. Has anyone actually seen "god" I THINK NOT. when no one believes in elves or fairies or whatever just because they're not real.. it's the same thing with god. i'm very skeptical. and if I'm going to be pushed into a religion i'd rather rot in hell... Anyone agree?

Ok, so, first off, not all religions do that. You're only talking about the radical Christians. Still though, you should respect their opinion. Don't hate on them and then expect them to treat you any better. Religion is not something that is bad within itself, what becomes bad is how people use it. Don't dismiss all religion based off a few radicals. I'm not a very religious person either but I respect all opinions. I choose to be a combination of Buddhist and Christian. I think, See More

I found this a little offensive but just because u don't think god is real doesn't mean you are going to hell! that would be cruel don't you think. but i also hate how they are anti LGBT. its always bothered me. but i am not going to force my religion on you. plus if u don't think god is real you still are a good person :D
Veiled
Wrong. All people who don't believe in God WILL go to hell. It might be cruel, but what the bible says, goes. Plus, you commented like ALL Christian people are ALL supposed to be anti LGBT. It bothers you because, obviously, you're ignorant and clearly didn't think to NOT bunch us all up together. You state that you are religious, but I doubt you're Christian... See More

@Marvele I'm evangelic, maybe you're catholic? Though the only difference between the two bibles is that one has the New Testament and the other doesn't. Or maybe your mom just thinks this way: "only good people can go to heaven, as long as that good person has faith." Not much of a difference.

@Marvele Nope, the main key for heaven is faith in God. Everything else is like after-effects. A person who believes in God, also believes in his rules, so he'd (or she'd) want to actually listen to them, I think. There's no reason not to... don't kill people; be nice to others; forgive 'em... it's all the basic stuff.

Sorry, slip up there. But wouldn't that mean anyone who doesn't go to heaven just go to purgatory? Also, the bible contradicts itself there since if a person is utterly benevolent and doesn't believe in God, they would both have to go to heaven but not be allowed to.

Well, I can't agree with you.

Basically, because you are attacking the religious people as they do to you, please, don't be a hypocrite. I think that at least some of us could already have enough head to understand others position and don't mind about it, simply, being a bit more open minded. If in your point of view they go to Hell, let them go. If you think in someone that doesn't exist, good for you then.

I am a Christian (Anglican) and I'm a bit taken back at this. But I believe that being non-religious is fine as long as you don't think being religious is a bad thing. If people start to pick on you because if being non-religious then you can start to tell them your beliefs (about it not being clear and what-not) because you are allowed free thought. All religions were created to explain things and help us connect and just make things more understandable (I have to say that I See More

And I just noticed that you talked about how religions are against gays. Quite frankly, I am not, and there are many Christians who aren't either. If you believe that all of Christians are against gays and hate people who don't agree with them, then I'll just say that all atheists are stupid pessimists.

No one has seen God or heaven or hell or even Lucifer (Satan) but you can hear him and feel his presence at times.

If you're going to shit on my religion, then it's a bad thing. If you're going to hold your non-belief with the same contempt and nicety that religious people do then we have no quarrels. Being non-religious is not bad, neither is being religious. You shouldn't hate someone for being religious or non-religious, it's immoral.

Well I'm a Christian an no one no matter how powerful, including God can force you. One reason I believe in him is because before I was born, the doctor said I was going to die and I wouldn't make it. But when my parents prayed for me, under the their christian God, and I was born. That's why I believe in God, that's why I'm a strong person. And that's why nothing, not even passing away of my friends could deter me or change the way I think about God.
