What if God exists and could care less if people acknowledge him according to one dogma or the other or if they even believe in him at all?
What if you live an honest life and contribute to your family and community and that's really all it takes to be in God's good graces?
Exactly how I feel.
Somehow I doubt God, if he exists, is so preoccupied with whether or not we believe in his existence. Shouldn't a God be above such pettiness?

Under any of these scenarios at the end of the day or in this case, end of the lifetime, your choices may be yours to reap. You may or may not be judged and rewarded or punished depending on the existence of the Judeo-Christian prototypical Creator. Good luck.........

So glad we hit on unicorns, Beck would be proud.
But is this really a case of left vs. right? Left doesn't = non-believer anymore than right = believer.

That sounds like how my dad thinks. He has stated that he goes to church for “insurance” purposes. I dont know if i think thats a healthy way to be religious.LOL at your Dad. I agree with you about the "insurance" or fear not being the optimal way to find God.
I watch South Park every now and then, and I remember watching a episode about Mormons. It basically poked fun at a lot of the ridiculous beliefs that Mormons have, but it also showed how happy the Mormon family was and how they were great people and had great values. So that’s the way I look at it. Sure belive what you want, but at the end of the day does it make you a better person. If you’re a “non-believer” that cant help yourself when it come it comes to attacking other people’s beliefs – does that make you a better person. If you’re run by divine providence and think your job is to save other people to the point that you offend them – does that make you a better person. As much as I hate it (because the type of people I see in the cars) I really like the idea behind the coexist bumper sticker (http://www.northernsun.com/images/imagelarge/Coexist-Bumper-Sticker-(7167).jpg). That was a funny episode. And well stated about folks respecting one another.

the left vs right was so page 4 of this thread
Dam the left likes to call people names that don't agree with them. Just go through this entire thread and see the name calling. I thought the left was the party of inclusion, yea my ass. Thats all right november is just a month away.
