Are you going to hell?

As someone who thoroughly enjoys existence, I have to say I'd rather exist in a bad place than not exist at all.

Good job being clever about something you didn't even bother spending five minutes trying to understand.

There is no hell. There is no heaven. There is no god.

Period.

Hell?

Yeah... you haven't heard? There's a big invisible man in the sky, and if you're good, you get to come party with him, his son, and their chums forever. If you're bad, you burn for all eternity in a really crowded place with everyone that was either bad, or believed in a different invisible man in the sky.

In other news, people actually believe this.

If there is a hell they should make me the guy that talks smack to teenage girls until they cry and cut themselves.

I'm probably really good at it. Seeing as how they do it whether I say anything or not.

Most Christians don't.

Where did that come from?

By default, people are separated from God because of original sin.

It came from logic and common sense.

It's counter-intuitive that all humans are inherently evil, Page.

By what standard do you define good? There has to be a standard for "good" to be defined.

Let me put it this way: It's bull**** that every child inherits sin from Adam and Eve.

How so? Adam and Eve both sinned, which immediately separated them from God. Since at the time they were effectively the entire human race, the whole future linage of humanity that would come from them would be tainted as a result.

Look at it like this--- people know the difference between good and evil and yet everyone still does evil to some extent anyway. As a species, does that not make us depraved by our very nature? People have to actively strive to achieve whatever morality they can--in contrast no one ever has to learn how to do wrong.

On a tangent, what the hell is the point of heaven?

What do you do in heaven? I mean, hell is bad, horrible, etc, but what does heaven offer exactly?

But Adam and Eve must have not been the "first humans" on the earth, seeing that Cain, son of Adam and Eve, talks about encountering people outside of his family and eventually meeting his wife.

Seems like a major inconsistency if you ask me.

I'd so go back in time and fill Bible with FGR references.

The rest of us came from pure evolution, while the Christians carry the religion-gene that has been passed down from Adam and Eve, who were planted here by the God being.

Adam was about 930 years old when he finally died. Plenty of time to have two sons, have one son kill the other, and then make a bunch of other babies.

Also, human reproduction could have skyrocketted the population very quickly, if couples kept having children and kept making more couples that had more children, etc.
Keep in mind 900 years was not a 'long' time for people to live during the time of Cain and Adam.

Just had to say something.

If it exists, probably not. If it doesn't, it's a moot point.

Well considering we humans all come from the same roots, I'd say we're all inbreeding anyways. Bring on the kissing cousins!

There has to be inbreeding at some point, even evolutionarily. (right?)

Right after the fall, the gene pool was quite a bit better. Now, not so much.
