: Her Position: Rape, murder, genocide, watching threes company reruns, EVERYTHING will be forgiven through the grace of God if you accept him into your heart on your deathbed and ask forgiveness.
What would be the point of having a god if this was the case? I don't think the god of the bible would be this forgiving, after all he was always condoning the slaughter of thousands of people for not following his word correctly (in the old testament).
I don't believe in anything, I don't see a need to. Life is pretty pointless, thats all you'll find out if you go looking for answers - but hey, why let that get you down? If you can live a good life and do your best to ensure those around you do too whats the need of a higher meaning? Why on earth do people want to goto heaven anyway? When I'm dead I hope that I will simply cease to be.
