When you are cremated your body will decompose into atoms too...
So actually you are your atoms and your atoms will lay down on our planet..

He will forgive all your sins if you will ask the Creator of the universe- the SON of God- about that.

Guys, have you heard that ONLY a limited number of people will be saved. All other people will perish after the coming Judgement Day because "punishment for sin is DEATH". This is the Holy Law of God.

Now ponder:

(1) Why did God choose some people to be saved?
(2) Why you did NOT choose God to be saved?
(3) Is it fair to save only a limited number of people?

Any ideas?


No "god" did...this is a contrivance of man to make you afraid so you can be controlled and fleeced.

Don't know why I didn't think of this when I originally posted in this thread lol. But this one verse negates any thought that only a "chosen" group will make it to Heaven.

John 3:16

16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.


God loved the WORLD that WHOSOEVER believeth in him...

Sin entered world long time ago
most people do not like being told what they can and cannot do
most making.choices that bible.would label.as sinful resent anyone pointing it out to them
"I a poor miserable sinner"
not something you are likely to hear coming out of a non-believers mouth

For in order to say.words and mean it you must first accept that there is such.a.thing as right and wrong and that as human you are not perfect so you come in with bowed head and humbled heart asking forgiveness and hope of doing better tomorrow

I fully accept there is right and wrong and moral and amoral...however, these things differ among individuals.

My unwillingness to accept ORGANIZED systems of "religion" doesn't make me a satanist, a poor excuse for a human being, or necessarily a "nonbeliever".

Doesn't mean that I am a porn addict, drug user, alcoholic, fornicator, or partake of any other depravity (as many believers do).

Doesn't mean I'm going to be ravaged by psychological or physical illness (as many believers are).

Why demonize a person for exercising their "god given" free will?

If it is accepted by a large group then it must be right? Didn't realize creator gods operated under a democratic republic system of government.

My own conscience governs my actions and thoughts.

My point to all this though, if the creator made the original man and woman and they are the progenitors of ALL mankind, then:

*Why would the creator of all declare a portion of the humans made in the likeness and image of the creator "the chosen people"?

*Why create substandard individuals?

*Where would belief in any other creator come from?

*Why would the creator of all need to "inspire" men to write "the word" instead of just creating the tome (even though people could not read and write - except for the one's that manufactured the scrolls), or the first man and woman give their offspring the instructions straight from the creator's mouth, or simply implant the "word" into our brains?


Don't get side tracked - these questions do not require PROOF or EVIDENCE of the existence of a creator god. They are posed based on the assertion that one creator made all there is in the universe.

No matter how we got here, no matter where we're going, organized religion is man made. Any natural fiber has been deemed impurity and replaced with a synthetic.

All for the sake of subjugating and fleecing the masses.

Organized religion is made up of imperfect men (and women) faced.with same temptations as anyone else and therefore it is an imperfect creation
