the whole thing. I'm supposedly going to burn in hell and am told that regularly as an atheist in good ole bible belt TN. that i find despicable enough to make me feel these people need help.

@terrec Amen, the TV preachers have created such a BAD name for the real Christians. We are about love, and making sure the most people possible get to heaven. Not Money.

@aubhar I'm sorry you feel this way. I will pray for you. God still loves you!

@stuckinouterspace Who ever told you it is our duty to save souls, lied to you. And I'm am sorry that you had this experience. But our duty is to plant as many seeds as we can. We are to bring you to Christ, and let Him save you. Obviously, you have the final say so, but all we can do is show the love of Christ. But sometimes it is good to think of the fiery, scary, miserable pit we were saved from. Though it is not really for frightening, though its true. God bless, and God loves you!

Personally, that comment doesn't keep me afraid. It empowers me. It reminds me that there is nothing this world can throw at me that I cannot get through with God.

Pat Robertson is pretty bad. He uses the money he gets from his television audience to invest in the diamond trade in Africa.

when I was 10 yrs old at a sunday school one time the pastor painted such a firey burning miserable picture about hell saying that if we did not get saved that was where we would spend eternity, needless to say I was freaked and had to be saved, of course it did not really "save" me, but the church got to add another soul at the time to enforce their show on even more vulnerable naive folks. that is the biggest propaganda I have faced. Everyday christians say its their duty to "save" lost souls.

I am arguing from the theistic perspective. If its atheism you fancy, I hcan't prove or talk you out of your intuition on the matter. I am saying that christianity as well as any other faith or philosophy should be challenged but at the same time given weight beyond the communities that surround them.

Its fun and helps others cope in when beleiving that all of christianity is out to scam you. It is immediate release for some to believe. I have delt with so much loss at such a young age its easy to say beleif gives hope. Be it as it may it puts a whole load of obsticles and challenges with the interaction of loss< this is where i learned that christianity is not about christians nor "getting into heaven" but gives weight to what salvation may be.
