    @ scamper165

    "Here's some food for thought. If christians are wrong then your right, and there is nothing after death and the jokes on us. However, if we're right then the unbelievers spend the rest of their non-life in the firey depths of hell. Sorry, I'll take that gamble. I'd personally rather be in heaven or nowhere than burning in HELL."

    You'll take the "GAMBLE", huh? LOL! You don't think god knows you're doubting him and just hedging your bets?

    If I were god I'd be much more offended by that than by someone who didn't believe in me.
