Why?Maybe there's something closer to the switch. Maybe there's an official switchtender.
Maybe there's a huge number of people hinging their entire lives on nothing but maybes and ifs.

Catholic Church's characterization is religious, not secular or legal. It is accurate only to the other Catholics, not to anybody else. Evil is a religious concept, not secular concept.
The reason homosexuality is proscribed is prejudice against gays, hatred of homosexuals. it has nothing to do with sex abuse scandal. As studies reveal, most pedophiles are heterosexual, not homosexual.
The studies I refer to are scientific studies.
Oh, plenty of evils exist in the eyes of the Church. Besides homosexuality, there is abortion, pornography, contraception, these are all evils in the eyes of the Church. The greatest evil of course (perhaps even bigger than homosexuality) is women trying to fight for equal rights with men.
There is the legend of Lilith, the predecessor of Eve. Lilith considered herself to be equal of Adam. For such audacity, God killed her and created Eve. That is the starting point of Catholicism. Committing suicide of course is the ultimate evil, it guarantees one a place in Hell.
So yes, Catholicism is full of evils of all kinds.
Sez you. Almost every Cardinal dreams of becoming a Pope some day, same as almost any Vice Presidnet hopes to become a CEO some day.
Again, sez you.
Life is a journey not a destination. When you live in the moment, the end doesn't matter. I've done my research, I have even asked for guidance. If what I have come to know as true is indeed wrong, then I blame the source. If it has mislead me, I do not give it permission to judge me. In fact, I do not give it permission even if I'm right. If it tries, there will be hell to pay, and I assure you it will not be me that burns.
Has it ever accured to anyone that there still are people living in remote places in the world that have no knowledge of Religion or the Bible. What happens to them after they perish, do you think they are doomed? Of course not!
There are just too many politics in religion these days to see the joy's of the benefits in what it has to offer.

That's why the lights went out and it's permanappie time.
How would I know if I was disappointed because there were no gates or angels or rivers of honey or even freaking virgins?
Best to live it now 'cuz this one, you know you have....
I just wonder....If we knew how many non believers at the last moment of their lives.... say a little prayer like the guy on the other cross....Just in case.....to hedge their bet......
And those who say they would never do it???.......nuff said:lol:
That might affect some of those who say they have no beliefs. Most believe something else. Jsu because a persone does not subscribe to the christian version, does not make them atheist.
It's my destination. I am here and loving it. If there's something after it, I'll cross the bridge after this, or not. If there is nothing after this, then I won't have wasted a lot of my destination dwelling on what's after.
..... and the same could be said for religion in relation to life in general.
People should be happy about whatever they have and seek only to improve that happiness. Faith in a bunch of ifs is sometimes a retardant to that objective..
Really? What did he look like?
The last pic I saw that someone claimed to be a Jesus was this one:
C'mon I live right next to the mexican border, there are tons of Jesus "chewy" and Moses, and Angels, and I've even seen a Jehova out here. What are you trying to pull?
I'm not the one trying to pull anything. I just asked what Jesus looked like.
