is it worth it?
I'm on the border between athiest and agnostic. The way I've always figured it is like this: If there is a God up there, all he cares about is that you are a good person; you don't steal, you don't hurt others, etc. He really doesn't give a damn if you go to church, are Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, etc. All that matters is that you are a good person.
Think about it, all religions, no matter what they are, are just a set of rules that pretty much any "good person" would follow anyway. Some people just need a little more motivation, like the fear of burning in hell, than others to be "good".
So, ultimately, when I die, if I don't simply become worm food as I suspect I will; if I do end up at the pearly gates facing some entity, I'm going to have preference over someone who's highly religious. Why? Simple, I've been a "good person" without religion. I didn't need anyone preaching about fire and brimstone to put me on the right path. That bible thumper though, it's only out of his/her fear that's made them a good person.
And, if it really does come down to the fact that you must be a good Christian, accept Jesus as your savior, etc etc to get into heaven. If nothing else matters. Well...that's not the place I want to be.Fengzi Reviewed by Fengzi on . is it worth it? god. religion. is it worth it? all of this death, pain, suffering over something as small as why were here? who gives a fuck? we'll find out when we die so why is it such a big deal while were here? the crusades, the spanish inquistion, the current war with iraq? does it REALLY matter? i used to think that i was an athiest. now i realize, wheater or not there is some big man/force in the sky, has no effect on me here and now. good and bad is only in people. i have no proof that god dosent Rating: 5
