You seem to be confused. How am I gonna go to heaven when I adamantly don't believe in the bible? I was under the impression that if you don't buy into that jesus shit, you burn, no matter how perfectly altruistically and morally correct you live your life. Are you saying otherwise? Because that would be pretty blaspehmous. Every "good" Christian knows that the Gandhis of the world are either rotting in hell right or will be as soon as they die.

Suggesting that the 72 virgin thing is an accurate representation of Islam is like somebody saying that the numerous neonazi-type groups who use Christianity to promote their beliefs are accurately representing Christianity. I'm not excusing atrocities caused by Muslims who use their religion to justify their actions, I'm just saying that shouldn't be an excuse to condemn all Muslims any more than atrocities caused by Christians (or Jews, etc.) who use their religion to justify their actions should be an excuse to condemn all Christians. Goodness knows there are other reasons to condemn religion as a whole as idiotic.

Btw,there are plenty of liberal Christians on yer side,as well as liberal Jews,that are in the process of re-writing God's Words to be politically -correct..such as rejecting God's warning about homosexuality and women preachers,some who are gay themselves.
If you don't respond to anything else I write, answer me this: wouldn't common sense say that Christianity is no more credible than Islam, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, etc., and that it's stupid to believe one religion over another? If you can't honestly answer yes to this question than you're obviously too far gone to make any sort of debate worthwhile. What liberals are trying to crack down on is the government using religion as the basis making decisions and policies, something that Republicans and the Iranian government clearly both have no problems with. You conservatives try to impose on the rest of us morals that have no justification other than that they were found in some random book that you claim was written by a higher power, then you're actually surprised when people take issue with them. One other thing, you getting all worked up about liberals rewriting your precious bible is hilarious considering "God's Words" were rewritten PLENTY of times centuries before you were even born (wait, or was it actually God who was rewriting it those times, but not this time?).

Have a good one ...
Two hundred years ago abolitionists weren't a majority in this country, so I guess you would have said to yourself, "gee, I'll just believe what the majority is believing, it must be right." See, this is a perfect illustration of why idiots like yourself continue to believe in Christianity. You think "well, my parent's and their parents and their parents all believed it, so it must be true" which, needless to say, is a stupid reason to believe in something if everything else points to the contrary.
