[QUOTE=That Penguin;19170031]Sometimes Christianity isn't really a religion to some, but a guideline of morals and whatnot. You don't necessarily have to believe in God, odd as it may sound, but use it as a figure of how you should live your life. And I don't really know what I am saying.
EDIT: Oh darn, top of page, and everyone will read this.[/QUOTE]
Well it shouldn't be. Most of the stuff in the Bible is stuff that most people would see as immoral.
"Oh but we don't follow those parts of the Bible." Why not? You don't follow them because you think that they are immoral? How do you know they are immoral if you get your morals from the Bible?
You don't need religion to be moral.

...That quote is dumb. Of course there would be atheists.
What did they exactly say to convert you?

Wondering if anyone will notice...
Look, OP, if you have to ask a forum full of retards such as ourselves to form an opinion for you, frankly you probably belong to Christianity already.

What would be the difference between someone with a soul and someone without a soul?

[QUOTE=Mr.2007;19166366]Hello facepunch, so far I have observed you and the internet on your opinion of Christianity. The majority of you decline it within 2 post of it being mentioned.
Also just to say I have been attending bible class for the past year on how to be saved and become a christian. The evidence of god is quite compelling and soon I am thinking about being baptized. Also when you think about it what is there to lose when you become a christian.
So far I am agnostic you could say, but I stay on the side of Christianity. Although I have been thinking should I actually get baptized and join God or become atheist. I don't hate atheist, although some of them show ignorance when it comes to religion.
Most of you atheist give yourselves an evil image of hating all religious beings. On the other hand some Christians go crazy and say you will obey God or burn in hell. I would like you Facepunch to help me decide on whether to become atheist or join the religious sect of the world.[/QUOTE]
Atheist, definitely.

No. Just perfect timing.
I'd say its good to have a belief in youre life, it makes you think that something will happen after death. Would it be heaven, eternal sleep, reincarnation ect. as long as it's something that wont make you fear death.
If youre going to choose Christianity then I recommend that you dont take the Bible literally, look at it as a symbol in what you believe in not as a rule book that you have to follow in every detail, like hating homosexuals and hate nonbelievers.
People say religion is bad but thats bullshit, Buddhism and Taoism are great religions with great morals that you can follow.

Maybe God will just put you in Hell for a month or two while demons sexually harass you in an uncomfortably warm stove.
there is no evidence for any sort of god :raise:

how does the demons look like?
demonatte-esque, or horrendous minotaurs?
Become an occultist :smug:
its' your own opinion, you really shouldn't ask the internet for something like this. If you feel it's right, do it. If you don't, then don't.
Eh, what evidence for god. Give me some, I'd love to be converted.
And don't give me that "Luk around u dud, teh trees, teh skai, there hasssz 2 be god!" bullshit.
Become a Christian, together we'll search for the truth that will destroy the infidels!
Don't ask us, we are weird, this is an important decision you should make yourself.
It's your choice, I'm a christian but I'm no Evangelical or Catholic. I don't go to church regularily but I help people out and am a good person.
You don't have to be an Extremist "do this or burn in hell!" Christian, be a casual christian if you want.
If you believe in Christianity, you already have your answer.
Personally, I'm a Jewish atheist, I like being jewish, lots of culture, great traditions.
If you think prayers will get you anything besides self calming and hope then I can tell you from experience you are horribly mistaken. Your not really going to get anything out of this besides a group of people who think simmilar thoughts some may tell you that you will get what you want in prayer and even the Bible clams it so but you will not I promise. I can give you the exact verse if you want.
You can have faith in God, but don't go to churches and all that shit for catholocism or something; those denominations are run by greedy old wankers
