This morning i was standing in the front of our gate,two middle aged people a man and a woman approached me and greeted me,I replied to their greetings with a smile also,the man first talked:"sister, do you want to go to heaven?" I said"of course".the lady talked secondly and said:"so you need to know Jesus,how do you know about Jesus,She asked me that way,I didn't reply,I only said to them that all of us have different beliefs to only one God,
they insisted that I should belong to a true religion in order to be saved and go to heaven.I answered them;"ok,I will try my best to search the true religion,"they handed me some leflets before they left.
I only have a question not only to a certain religion but to those who are claiming that they are the only children of God who could go to heaven.how many hundreds or maybe a thousand number of religions do we have in the whole world? and of course they are all good and Godly because they are preaching the word of God,but is God's basis on salvation is through religion? only a question please.

thats one of the many reasons that i dont believe in any religions.
they all claim to be the "one true" religion, and of course everyone else is therefore going to hell etc.
and with the number of religions claiming they are the only true one, what are the odds that the one we finally decide on is actually the "one true one"??? not so good. so in the off chance that you happen to choose correctly, you will be very happy im assuming. but the millions and millions that chose wrong are going to be flooding the realm of "hell" and probably cause it to burst at the seams.
lol
thats why i live my life without religion. however, i do believe that whatever the "hereafter" holds for me...if i am a good person, help others when i am able, and treat others how i wish they would treat me...then i will get to the "pearly gates" or wherever the true ending turns out to be.

it is true cinderinmysoul,I am not against in any religions,it is their beliefs,but what's wrong with the others is they are quite so sure of their salvation,I will say my opinion;I think the salvation is not through religion but it is through our hearts.
