Nice to have this type of discussion without a lot of name calling and other harder to spell things. (most here know that my spelling is atrociouse, atrocious, atrosiso, oh heck really bad.)
I was born and rasied a Cathloic, became and athetis while in Viet Nam, graduated to agnostic and now I am a Baptist. I like to think I combine a lot of view points in my thinking but then I am prejudice towards myself. I am stricly a NEW Testamnet believer. I go to church and Sunday school and work with kids and the aged. I enjoy the peace that church brings to me. It is, admitidly, easier for me to believe in Jesus then in GOD. Sounds wierd I know. I think about all the idiots that are doing things to thier fellow humans, the wrongs done to animals and the planet and I get really discouraged in thinking that somewhere there is a GOD that lets it all go on. I really hate it when people of any following invoke GOD as the driving force behind thier actions, good or bad. I hate the term "Gods will", becasue I don't think there is a "will" behind many of the things that go on. For everyone that claims God interceeded in thier lives there are many more that dont have that intervention, for everyone that claims an ANGEL saved them or touched them I ask where are the angels that are suppose to protect the others that surffer terribly.
So I think there is an after life, weather there is a GOD in control I dont really know. But the Christian life style is good for me and I have rasied my kids to believe that there are good people and that GOD, if he exists, wants us to help ourselves and to help others when we can.
What happens when I die, well I don't think I will, the body will go (and some days the sooner the better) but I am to arrogant to think my spirit will just wither up and blow away. So maybe I will have to look at GOD someday and admit I was wrong, I'll take that chance. In the mean time I help out when I can, feed stray animals, hug every lady that I can, young or old, fat or then, pretty or not....do the little things that make this world a better place.
Talk is easy, doing is hard, tearing down takes almost no effort, building takes all you got.
Have a lovely life and cherish it will you can.
Nuff Said,
Line up to the right for hugs, fanny pats are optional. End of the line Star50....end of the line.:rolling:
