An unthinkable amount of people have died over religious issues. How is a suicide bomber terrorist any worse than a Christian bombing an abortion clinic? Both were driven from their religious views. What's to say a Christian is better than a Muslim. Or should I say who's to say Christians are better than Muslims, not what’s to say.
I'm a Christian and I hate it when someone bombs an abortion clinic, I see them the same as terrorists. In that situation there is no "who's better than who", they're equal, they're both terrorists. I also can't stand that precher down south that thinks these terrible things (i.e. Katrina) happen to heathens.

No human is perfect so we're going to make mistakes. If my mistake is not having Christ in my life, why should I have to pay with eternal damnation? Why won't he forgive me? The best person in the world could go to ****, but yet the worst person in the world could go to heaven, just for asking a few words?
I'm a born-again christian and I believe you need Christ in your life because he's the only way into heaven since he died for our sins, this is God forgiving us, he has the capability to forgive everyone, you just have to make the first step. His death is essentially the ultimate sacrifice (this replaces the burnt offerings they did in the OT). You go to hell when you die because you have sin. God is perfect and without sin (so is heaven) and since you have sin you can't enter into heaven (I personally believe in the doctrine that ALL sin is equal). It isn't fair when someone thats "good" dies and goes to hell and some horrible person that "just asks a few words" goes to heaven. Most people I think go to heaven really meant it when then "pray the prayer", I don't think a serial killer is gonna do that on death row 'cause I don't think he/she is thinking about/like that.

I believe what I do because it give me comfort knowing where I'll go when I die. If I'm wrong? I don't think there's anything wrong with living a decent life
