TheLonelyWalker,
What do you mean? |

when christianity started apostles and disciples went everywhere
they didn't ask anything as a matter of fact they adapted christianity to the lcoal customs. that means universality. if an atheist person is moral and ethics and even without knowledge follows Jesus teachings, that person is more entitle to heaven tha many christians I've met. |

TheLonelyWalker,
Works will not get one into Heaven. The path to hell is paved with good intentions. Christianity was presented using local beliefs, but the apostles never molded Christianity to fit with non-Christian beliefs. |

based in ur theory over two thousand million of souls are going to hell?
|

TheLonelyWalker,
Based on what the Bible says? Yes. |

Everybody has their own heaven. My heaven is not yours and yours is not mine. Christians, Catholics, Mormons, Muslims, Wickens, homosexuals, bi-sexuals, non-believers and many others all have the same right as you to go to their haven, because they BELIEVE. A belief is a powerful thing. Without having had a belief at all religion would not have been started. Then man would have had to find something else to place the responsibility of creation on. Whether you or I believe things to be wrong doesn't make them wrong in anybodies eyes but our own. I want to beable to practice my beliefs, whatever they may be, reagardless of what those around me believe in. |

i read the same bible u do.
however, my experience with my heavenly Father and my Lord JesusChrist. have taught me otherwise. MY Father who is in heaven Created all of us equally, so the muslim or the african tribal man who does not have access to the word of Jesus it's not at guilt. therefore, he is not going to hell. The same apply to the rest of my brothers and sisters around the wolrd. |

A_Midsummers_Dream,
I'm offering my opinions as a Christian. I don't deny anyone their right to believe the way they do. Thank you for sharing. |

p.s. many christian holidays were formed,by Constantinople, from pagen
rituals such as; the worship of the evergreen, the easter bunny spreading fertility to mother earth, and so on. All because the word of God was spread and causing destruction, because everybody wanted everybody else to make their god the only god. |

TheLonelyWalker,
I seem to remember Jesus teaching that the wide, easy path is the one that leads to hell and that most people would walk that path. We'll just have to agree to disagree. God bless you. |
