No man can come to the Father, except through Me". He is mankind's only hope of redemption from sin.
    That's nice. I refused to teach my children that hateful concept that they were born bad and could only be "saved" by a belief in one small religious sect -- and that billions of other souls were condemned to hell. Enjoy your beliefs; we are fine with ours.

    I pray the Lord my soul to take.

    WTF? I remember worrying a lot when I was little that I would die in my sleep because of that thing.

    So you, as a New Age Cultist, would reject the Absolute and immutable Truth of God's Holy and Infallible Word? Then you further condemn your progeny to eternal torment. that's not me, but Scripture. Your argument is with God Almighty Himself. Mankind IS a fallen race. the ONLY cure is the Cross.

    You must have some amazing powers there, to discern some anonymous forum person's religious path (or lack of one) through your screen. Sorry, buddy. There's no Hell. There's no Xtian God ready and willing to toss most of his creations into a fictional place of eternal torment. I'm not even sure whether we have souls that continue after our meatspace body decays. I just know we have this life for sure. BTW my kids are adults so they are in charge of their own eternal destiny, if there is something like that. They're loving, wonderful parents and none of them have taught their children that they were born "fallen". Either were you.

    My wish for you: Enjoy this wonderful existence we all have, be grateful for this beautiful planet we share, be kind to others including our fellow passengers. Miigwech.

    Accept your mortality and live out your life like a sane person.
    We have the intellect to imagine the finality of our own demise but do not have the sophistication to overcome our survival instinct and accept it.
    Solution? Magical thinking and childish promises of everlasting life.
    Ergo, religion.

    Ask yourself honestly if this describes what you believe to be true.
    If the answer is yes, you are a racist.

    My hope is in the new Earth that God will bring forth when sin, and the curse thereof, are eradicated and thrown into the Lake of fire along with Satan and all of his followers of which you belong. Sorry, but there IS one absolute Truth. All else is a lie.

    You mean a whacked out Communist like yourself? Pass. My hope rests in the Lamb and His shed blood for the forgiveness of my sin and my secure eternal destiny.

    I see now why you bathe Trump's feet with your tears and dry them with your hair. Have a nice evening.

    Children might buy that nonsense.
    Your hope demonstrates willful insanity.
