    To me I don't see why there even could be a Hell like the one they talk about. What's more if Jesus died on the cross for us, then all our sins are purged. And if that's the case, when we die we're not waiting in a line, we're just going to appear in heaven...

    Also did you know there is a Hell on Earth? It's in Michigan :grin:

    hell is just a construct designed to threaten and coerce.

    I was raised Catholic, I went to 8 years of catechism, and I go to a Catholic high school...so I'm not clueless to the Catholic church and it's teachings, I've just learned them from "a straight point of view", if that makes any sense.

    One thing: Don't judge and you won't be judged. If anyone, including hardcore Christians judge you, they will be judged back, more severely.

    Gay makes no mistakes, we do. As long as you live a good life according to the law and the natural law (No stealing, no killing, no lying), then you're good.

    I am going to a higher extent, because of my love to God, I am remaining Chaste. But that is something I chose for myself and I am not going to impose that to anyone else. This is the best way for me to live my sexuality and my Christianity.

    I don't see the point in spending your life thinking about what is going to happen when you die, as intriguing as it is. As the bible says itself your LIFE is what matters, don't spend the whole race thinking about weather there's cake at the end, you'll just get distracted and lose the race, better not to think about it and get a surprise. If when you die you continue to exist in any manner I would consider that a bonus...
