Before you go trolling this thread or flaming me, just hear me out. This book, The Purpose Drive "What On Earth Am I Here For?", by Rick Warren is very inspiring... And has over 30 million copies sold... [IMG]http://i35.tinypic.com/amrslu.jpg[/IMG] This book, if you choose to read it, will change your WHOLE perspective on life. It is a beautiful book that tells you the meaning of life and tells you WHY YOU ARE HERE ON THIS PLANET! Rick Warren explains to you, "Your aren't on this planet for your purpose, but for gods!" And believe me... This book helps... I'm only 13 years old and I have depression, this book helped A LOT for my depression and the HELL I went through trying to learn the reason I'm on this world. Flame me or not but I have been to a mental hospital TWICE for trying to kill myself 6 or more times.... But this book has stopped me from going a 3rd... For any of you reading this and have depression yourself... Please.. Take the time to read this... This world is meant to prepare us for our eternal life with God, up in Heaven... Right now, he is building the foundation of our eternal life in heaven, and he will ask you 3 questions when you get there... These questions aren't hard.. You just have to be confident in what you say... And trust me, he wants you to answer these right. So please, my brothers and sisters, read this book, to enjoy your time on this world, and love the time in heaven. Oh and this book has saved a womans life.. One day a woman in Virgina (I think...) was held hostage inside her home from a man who had escaped prison The woman then read this book to him and he gave himself up surrending and serving his sentence... Now tell me thats a powerful book :)
oh god this is another one of those religious icons it's called getting a hold on life. also called puberty, which OP has yet to go through.
In coming flames detected.
[QUOTE=Fudgeman511;17473883]Text[/QUOTE] This is gonna start one hell of a shitstorm.
Waiting for someone to snipe this.
Eww. I'll read a book that has nothing to do with religion..
That book sucks and does NOTHING
Is this a book that advocates religion and that I need to depend on God/Faith?
[QUOTE=Bredirish123;17473946]Is this a book that advocates religion and that I need to depend on God/Faith?[/QUOTE] yes.
read the quran, it's better
I don't like reading books.
Oh great..... WHAT WAS THE FIRST SENTENCE YOU GUYS!?!?!? NO FLAMING!!! God dam... DOesnt anyone read that anymore?
I thought it was Twilight for a minute..
[QUOTE=bobste;17473960]read the quran, it's better[/QUOTE] Better plot too.
Well, good for you, OP and woman from Virginia. Glad it worked out for you. I don't think this will help most of FP since we're all atheist or something [img]http://sa.tweek.us/emots/images/emot-Dawkins102.gif[/img]
Haha, I read it and then realized it has to be a joke. Went RIGHT over my head.
Well hey good to see a 13 year old reading for a change.
Obvious troll is obvious. You guys suck at spotting these, honestly.
Not going to read it because I don't believe in any of that, etc. But if it helped you, then good for you.
[insert sarcastic comment about God here] Really, though, I'm not sure if God exists. I do know that either way I'm going to make fun of hyper-religious freaks like the author of that book.
But, there is no universal meaning to life. I create my own meaning.
[QUOTE=Fudgeman511;17473966]Oh great..... WHAT WAS THE FIRST SENTENCE YOU GUYS!?!?!? NO FLAMING!!! God dam... DOesnt anyone read that anymore?[/QUOTE] dude mixing religion and facepunch is like trying to mix sodium with water.

[QUOTE=Danny Lol;17473992]Obvious troll is obvious. You guys suck at spotting these, honestly.[/QUOTE] But... This isn't even funny. Not even for a troll.
[QUOTE=Fudgeman511;17473966]Oh great..... WHAT WAS THE FIRST SENTENCE YOU GUYS!?!?!? NO FLAMING!!! God dam... DOesnt anyone read that anymore?[/QUOTE] We don't like religion here.
Oh boy. Dude, God isn't real. Jesus was an over-hyped random guy. If you are trying to commit suicide something is terribly fucking wrong with you, it is basic instinct that tells us to stay alive. If you want I could give you hundreds of articles disproving the Bible, proving evolution, disproving intelligent design etc. etc. All I want to say is, you don't need a God to be happy. Live for yourself and others, not some made up figure that lives in the sky. Also nice troll if this is one. Just trying to help.
If a book doesn't have a tentacled Great Old One that lives in Rl'yeh in it, it's not worth reading. Unless it has boobs.
Oh great another 13 year old that think hes been purified by believing some dumbfuck religion.
You have depression. You tried to kill yourself 6 times. You have to resort to a book to cheer you up. But God loves you!
[QUOTE=bobste;17473960]read the quran, it's better[/QUOTE] I second this. Atheist here, who can tell you the Quran is very beautifully written.
