I have life-long nagging questions about fundamentalist Christianity..why this notion of having to be saved? Is it Sin?..the idea that you're born into this world damned? We are born into this world completley innocent are'nt we? So, if an infant dies moments after it's born-could this mean that baby goes to hell??? No! We would feel uncomfortable with that scenario. We all come into this world with a clean slate, and as we mature into adults we can choose between right and wrong because we have free will. I don't think you need religion 'any religion' to be your moral compass. Whether there is a God or not..This Earth is the only 'Miracle' as far as I can see, and the rest is up to us.
If the earth is the only miracle in your eyes, then who made it? It was GOD who made this earth. What about yoru emotions? Your mind? Your coming about to life from no other human's hands or works to create you?
Some things to think about brother. You need to seek wisdom and knowledge first before speaking of things your not knowledgeable about yet.

Again you are deceived Lennon, your profile says you accepted Christ but your posts reveal something different. Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal Truth to you.
