Everyone believes different things may have been what I said exactly lol

For future reference "that's a very personal question, and it's impolite to ask it of other people" is a good way to deflect such questions in the future.

Personally, I tell them that if you don't believe in God and refuse to allow Jesus into your heart you wil face eternal damnation and torment in Hell.

I like to think of it as everyone getting what they truly want at death. Those who want to be with God get to be with God. Those who don't want God get to be separated from Him for eternity. It really is that simple when you get down to brass tacks.

So... you worship an alien entity that dictates "Believe in me or I'll make your afterlife a living hell"?

I usually try and be understanding, especially when it comes to religion.. but I just don't get this type of mindset. It goes hand in hand with the mindset of God giving you cancer, then deciding you learned your lesson and heals you.

You die, you snuff out like a candle. No biggy, it's a non existence, just like before you were born. The positive thing about this is you get one chance at life. Once chance to do good, one chance to influence others. There's are no rewards and no punishments other than what you bring upon yourself in this life. Get busy living.

Geez, it is as if there is no shortage of Darwin candidates...

Haha, the bottom one with the guy stuck in the swirly thing reminded me of that Always Sunny in Philadelphia episode.

I didn't laugh until I got to the guy stuck in the twisty stairs. Then I couldn't be stopped. THAT shit is FUNNY.

Took me a second to realize what was going on when I looked at the first pic, I thought it was some sort of porno.
