Why do the "holier than thous" insist that their God and their way is the only way. I have been told that I'm going to hell and quite honestly I'm fine with it, because if the God these people speak about is so nitpicky; my quirky, rebellious self doesn't belong behind the pearly gates.
For example, in conversation at a sporting event I was told I'm going to hell because I don't go to church every week. Now, I know the intended message behind this "threat" is to make me go to church every week. But if I truly believe that God is sitting up there with a scorecard and anyone that doesn't attend church regularly is going to hell, I don't want to go to heaven . . . . there won't be ANYONE I want to spend eternity with there.
My God doesn't care if I talk to him in a specific building at a specific time on a specific day. He's just as happy to listen to me while I lie in bed at night. There are lots of people who find something inside the walls of a church, I'm not one of them.
So as the saying goes, It's not God I have a problem with, it's his FAN CLUB!
