Are you an atheist? Can religion save you from HELL?

If you watch "The Atheist Experience" on youtube, you'll get a clear idea on how hard it is to convince them..

I think this has drifted over into another case of "it's hard to convince them".. it's true that it's hard to un-convince anyone of what they strongly believe and, or have been taught.. and it's all belief/religion.. I first found God through study and meditation.. so full so peaceful, then I learned that was the Father and soon afterward 'met' the Son and started reading and studying the bible.. that was 30+ years ago and my socks are still knocked off! - I later studied the theory of evolution and found all the holes in it (the ones teachers are not allowed to bring up lest they lose their job!) And mostly I found out once someone knows God and, or his Son (the open door, healed breach to the father) it's very hard to convince them that he doesn't exist! Many blessings! :)

I have a clue for you. When God saved Noah, it was thru an Ark. God told Noah to build and so he built it literally. In this time now that God plans to cleanse the world thru Hunger, Disease and War, He will spare his people thru a Holy Place from which God told the people find it based on the bible. There is a place and there is no way you can go there if you are not a follower.

Well, I don't know where you coming from but by reading my initial comment above, I never expressed to be as an unbeliever as you seem putting in your comment. In terms of Holy place, reflects on heaven or kingdom of God but not churches! Churches, even none christians go there but few are getting save!

I think its the latter one...

If you are not careful in today multiple religion world we are living in, instead of getting save from HELL by religion, you stand a better chance of being lead into HELL quicker than being save from it.

Exactly. Rather than justifying themselves they put faith as an explanation. I never knew people could be so ignorant that they promote injustice and immorality in the name of religion.

@ Crossbones - Awesome buddy !! From now on you are my hero dude cause thats a wonderful answer. (I don't know if u r a dude or dive so sorry beforehand.. haha :P) Religion was formed to keep the masses in line. How do you keep such a huge population disciplined and away from cutting each other's throat ? Wait a sec !! I know it.. I'll seed deep down in their hearts the fear of an omnipotent, self-sustaining almighty and righteous being who is watching them each and every second of their life what they are doing or even intend to do, and form an institution thats embraces that fear further, time to time. But wait a sec.. I'll first need to form a story about the whole thing for those bunch of baboons to believe me. Tadaaaa !! Problem solved.

I know, isn't it funny how convenient religion is? You can do as much messed up stuff as you want, then ask for forgiveness, and then you are cleansed of all wrong doing. Then you can go back to doing what you were before, because all you have to do is ask for God's forgiveness, and you will be back in the good graces of the Lord. Then again that is why so many people are religious, because they think if there was no religion that man as a whole would go off the deep end, and the whole world would fall into anarchy. The problem is people are just bad because it is in their DNA and that is what it took for us to survive to get to this this point. For better or worse. The only way to lead a positive life is to keep improving ourselves. If people really want to find God, take a little trip by yourself to some place where there is wilderness with a lot of scenery and wild life. If you are one of those people that can't handle being by yourself take your dog. Plus he can alert you just in case the wild life tries to get to close. The reason you go by yourself is because if you bring some one they will take away from the overall experience. Just sit back be quiet and watch. That is the only God I know of. She is called Mother Nature.

I totally agree. And whats worse nobody is obeying it anyways today. But they somehow keep us from uniting and overthrowing the system anyways. The system is so bad, that it must be dealt with from the bottom up, completely!!! I say start with the banking institutions, cause they are totally corrupt! And then on and on and on! Plus speaking about religion... How about the scandal when Vatican bank was funnelin money for the MAFIA?? Funny aint it?

Thank you brother , God guide us

Very well said, it can't be said in a better way, obedience to God all mighty and following the commands is the key to keep away from hell.

Hmmm so far.. the leading post in the Best Response race !! Nice one.. !!

Each religion teaches differently and so affects our salvation. If your Pastor does not tell, follow this, do not do that, this is the right way. Then you are surely in a different religion. Salvation is a treasure hunt. The trails to it is all found in the Bible. And since each teaching is different from the other religions, be sure to find the right one. Finding it not thru your own judgement but still based on the Bible. There is a hundred of thousands of religions on Earth but there is only one Church that glorifies God since only one Church have followed what was written. Understand the bible in the most basic way. Basic English grammar. Basic prepositions. Everything basic. Do not confuse too much on what they say very complicated verses.
