What do you think about… The discussion thread

[shiner]

If

you found out for certain there is a Heaven and a Hell,
how would you change your life?

Not a single bit. I believe that if heaven and hell are afterwards, you will be judged by the actions that come from your heart, not the one that come from force, fear or desire. I believe that you cannot buy your way into a better afterlife, just because you follow the laws of (insert preferred deity). Rather, I think that those actions you did out of your free will are the only ones that matter.

And, if the only reason that I would be sent to hell is that I do not believe in the deity of power, even though I have lived a life that made far more people happy than sad because I choose it, than I do not care wherever I end up since it is all a sham anyway.

I believe in the good of people hearts and generally return this same kindness. That should be enough.

All that matters is LOVE. Lucifer and his fallen know there is a Heaven and Hell.
They believe in Jesus Christ, but they do not obey him, for they have not love and are filled with rebellion and hate.
We, like them, also rebel, but we have a capacity for love and compassion.
If you do what is right for the sake of reward or where you will spend eternity,
Then you did not do it out of love, but out of selfish reasons and your reward will be of such.

But to be kind, generous, and charitable with no assurance of reward; to do good for goodness sake alone,
this is a matter of love… and of Faith.

So NO, I would not be different because of that knowledge.
At least I hope not, because Integrity is what we do when no one is watching.

I was raised to believe that there is a Heaven and a Hell.  Those values are part of my being, part of my soul as it were.

As a direct answer, I want to say that I would not change my life.  As Lover answered, I've always lived by the Golden Rule.  “Do unto other as you would have done unto you.” 

That and I have a couple of kids to finish raising.  I have always tried to instill into them what was given to me, and that is the sense of right and wrong.  I always know when I'm doing something wrong, because I feel guilt and later remorse.  That is the best I can do for them, because it will be up to them to live their lives.  Sure I can help out with advice and even with finances, but I can not live it for them.

When I'm home in Montana and up on that mountain with the sun setting and all the colors of the rainbow in the sky, and it's peaceful and quiet with only the sounds of nature around me, THAT my friends to me, is Heaven.

If

how would you change your life?

I always thought there was.  So there's nothing I would change, maybe a few wishes that people / pets who touched my life stayed around longer.

I'd like to think that St Peter would let me in the Pearly Gates but I might have to sit in the naughty corner for awhile.  Bet I'd get passed him eventually though, he'd be fed up of me asking him if he had voted yet in the Erotic Story Contest 

In my early 40's i sat and looked back on my life,
yeah i have done things  that were not the smart choices
yeah i have hurt many

it is all a part of growing up

but when it was all said and done
i was happy with the man i had grown up to be
your opinion of me counts for 4/5ths of fuck all
if there is an afterlife i will stand with my head held high
and take whatever is dished out, good or bad

Its been that way all my life
i live by my code
wont  change for anything or anyone

Judge not another lest you be judged
pass not judgement unless you know ALL the facts

Covems suggestion:

If

I was  going to post  before you changed  this

There is a Heaven and  hell and

Heaven and hell will never go side by side…
If you are Lucky to be in Heaven you will feel a  transformation a change , new thought entered your mind
in heaven you are in the presence of GOD  and nothing impure can come near him all gets washed all is perfected
at his side you feel the love the peace the  joy  there is no illnesses pains  hurts that is not of GOD

all the all the sickness illness paints hurts come from hell as he wants to keep you bound and chained so you don't know the truth

there is  change but its   long to explain it
There is Change and you will feel it …

even people that  don't reach heaven,  have change  people always  grow we are always changing always growing

and we all see it in  creation in many ways  can be in other's in nature  in acts words  this is so deep to talk about .

For me I would like you all to feel what heaven  feels like then you will  Understand me  , for know you dont and will not Understand  me

but its  ok with me  I leave you all with  peace and I  hope that some of you will reach  what real heave  feels like you will  never  feel the same when you  reach it there ……..

Hell is real to

If All women are removed from earth tomorrow  How  will they live? What do they have to live for? what will happen?

$15,000 for killing such an elephant as below, less than 3%of that goes back into conservation. 
Tourism to see such elephants will get that money back from a family of 4 in 2 weeks!!

Zimbabwe –  Stop killing your fucking wild life and lining your own pockets.

Look at these fucking idiots…  Guy on the right is the German Hunter who shot that Elephant that was 40 to 60 years old…

Remember this idiot Dentist from Minnesota on the left…

Its wrong. Its not conservation. Its about money.
Sad thing is, these animals can be left alive & you will get so much more money from tourism.
Shoot them with a camera not a gun / rifle.

I'm angry, I'm reacting, I care for what generations could lose in the future … I'm venting.. I have red hair…

Of course, its open to discussion…  Legal Poaching … Ban It I say.
