so, i was writing an e-mail, cause one of my church of christer friends is absolutely convinced that i am going to hell. i wrote her this back, among other things. it isn't great, but it is kinda interesting.
the problem with christians is they forgot how to be nice to people and want to try and control everything. jesus wasn't after abortion, homosexuals, prayer in school, evolution, supreme court reform, etc, he came around to try and get everyone to help each other and get along. until christians stop being judgmental pricks and start being actual christians, then we can talk about hell. but, quite frankly, where everyone else is going after they die is their friggin business; leave it at that and go help some homeless people or something. if the bible is right, (and you seem to think it is, as many contradictions as it has) then god is gonna come around and separate the people that helped people from the people that didn't, and i don't think pat robertson and his fundamentalist cronies are gonna be with the sheep, if you know what i am saying. if you remember, jesus said that it is really hard for rich people to get into heaven, so all those christians should be out trying to give away a crapload of their money to make sure they don't go to the eternal place of pain and suffering, right? instead they by escalades and hummers. (seems to me they don't really believe all that much stuff about it, what about you?) actions speak louder than words, and most of the actions by the higher level of christians don't really seem to be all that christian to me. how can you not support abortion but then support bombing people in iraq? i can understand supporting both, or not supporting both, but picking? come on. love your neighbor as yourself, no? it wasn't just your next door neighbor, it was every single person on this earth.
