My math:
Buying an iPod saves exactly 0 lives
Purchasing pet insuance, or taking care of your pets shows compassion and thought for a fellow living thing, while not human
How do you justify supporting a team, in your line of 'reasoning' who would spend 12 million dollars on a new scoreboard when they could have sent that money to support starving families in third world countries? Given your outrage to something that costs maybe $20 a month, that must REALLY **** you off.
How on Earth can you justify needing your clothes altered when there are MILLIONS OF STARVING CHILDREN IN THE WORLD1?!?!?!111!?!!?! My God, man, get your moral compass looked at (no offense)! You should be glad you even HAVE clothes!
Oh, right, I understand, this isn't your point, its not about you, you're not a Christian so it doesn't count, you can spend your discretionary income no matter how you see fit. Make sense!

You are right.
I will admit 100% that if there is a Christian God i WILL go to hell.
I have certainly not followed the teaching of christ and/or the bible.
This is the problem though. I live essentially the same life as most first world people, and assuming that the ONLY criteria for getting into heaven is not merely belief that there is a heaven, that would mean that most people are likely going to hell then, no?
And lets be honest, we are on the frikkin internet. I am far more interested in my own argument and the logical journey then impressing you. And likewise for you, i am sure. What is said here is not concrete - it is fleeting and meaningless...
