    worship me or burn

    just to say, I was close with a person who happened to be an antioch orthodox bishop who explained that their faith goes only on what jesus said before people took over and made a bunch of stuff up.

    he explained I didnt have to believe, there is no hell, jesus loves me and when I die ill know jesus and be with my deceased loved ones in heaven no matter what I do.

    so I was like: cool

      This is what I can get behind. Why would a God being care if we worshipped him or not? If anything, as long as you’re a good person and try to do good, I believe they’d be like, “Cool, come on in.” I’d like to believe thar folks who are just evil and hurt others would just die. There’d be nothing after for them except emptiness and lack of all feelings.

      I’m an Atheist, but feel I have a better chance to sit and talk with “God” and get into the kingdom than someone who is a Christian and spews hate.
