The truth is that it is that man, and others, including yourself, who finally convinced me that there is something seriously wrong with Christianity if its believers idiotically claim that all one has to do is to believe in Jesus (whatever that means) and heaven is assured. What childish crap that is!! It is based on an opinion from some words in a book that is presumed to be error-free and written by God himself, who proceeds to tell us that all he created was good while he himself commits genocide with impunity, allows that only a very miniscule part of what he created will get into heaven (whatever that is), and that miniscule part holds to the same ideas for 40 or 50 years, never changes, never grows into a more full understanding of who the God is, never admits it is wrong, thinks God wants our worship (God seems to be very egotistical, too), and everyone else be damned. I have–had–a friend like that. We’ve known each other for more than fifty years. He chose the bible over our friendship. He is the only person in my whole life I wished I had never known. And heaven is to be filled only with people like him? God needs to get a grip on who his real friends are.
