I am eldest, so they expect me to be a good influence, which I am not.

First, I am not atheist, I just don't believe in any religion or any scientific belief on how our world began.

My argument is the same as it was in the last thread we had about religion: Why would God create human beings, like Muslims or followers of other religions,that would reject God's own existenceand therefore, contradict himself. If they choose not to believe in him and they sin, or what Christan's consider sin, they will not be able to repent for their sins, because they do not believe in God,andtherefore, they will all go to Hell.

For example, think of all the women killed in the Middle East over things that their religion commands them to do, like always obeying their husbands and always wearing a veil in public. In God's eyes, he would probably consider it murder for people to kill for those reasons. He allowed the religion, that allowed the murder,to come into existence, if he really is omniscient, and therefore, condemnedthose peopleto Hell.

Only four years, but we've both been througha lot.

Christianity doesn't condemn people to Hell if they are Muslims or other religions. Atheists hate God/Religion, Why would they go to Heaven if they Hate God? Muslims can go to Heaven (Again, IF they don't hate God/Kill Christians etc..). Everyone has a fair chance to get to Heaven. I posted something like this awhile ago. It was a lot more in-depth than this post.

But people of other religions do what Christians call sin, like men having several wives or murder. And they must go to God and repent, but they won't repent to a God they do not believe in, thus they are going to Hell.

Well, Having Several Wives and Murder is wrong, no matter what religion you are. I'm not God so, I'm not positive how they are judged. I think they are judged upon how well they followed their religion and how they lived their life. Obviously Murder, Rape, Polygamy etc.. is wrong.

One last argument, doesn't Christianity have a problem of people praying to "false gods". In a way, in a Christian's eyes, I would think Allah would be a false god, and by definition, all of his believers are going to Hell.

I may be way off here, but I'm going by what I know about the Bible.

I can see now why people wouldn't like them. They are kinda immature and I have that kind of sense of humor. But still, there are some that are really funny.

I am undecided because both sides seems to have problems.

In Christianity, everyone that doesn't believe in God (atheists, Muslims and followers of other religions) is going down, which seems unfair because why would God create something, if only to have it contradict himself.

In atheism and the Big Bang Theory, I have a hard time understanding if we came from a huge explosion, where did the balance of nature come from. The order of the worlddidn't just come into being and science can't seem to explain that.

Neither side seems to be able to completely make sense. So I choose not todecide.

I am always making Chuck Norris jokes and everyone keeps telling me it's dumb. I think they are crazy for hating on the guy that counted to infinity twice. Or am I the crazy one?

I am skeptical...welcome to this abyss called the Forums...you will waste many hours here...and become addicted to our irresistible personalities or you will be annihilated and your ashes will be fed to my gerbil..

That can't possibly be healthy for the gerbil.

I wonder if anybody has ever stayed up for a whole day straight
