Quote seen somewhere
To believe in God or in a guiding force because someone tells you to is the height of stupidity.

this quote is using the logic that you shouldnt believe things just because people tell you to. I was saying that we belive alot of things that people have told us. How do we know this life isnt a dream? well, weve been told this is reality, but can we prove that?

And for you to know, I have been to many churches, seen many things, in fact I was raised southern baptist. SO to shoot down my ideas saying I have no reason to believe them is jsut wrong. Have you seen a pastor preach about getting sinner's into a church, and then tell a girl she can't come back becuase she's an unwed mother? I have. Have you seen a pastor say women shouldn't be teaching? I have. Have you ever been to bible studies where in the baptist show how all the other religions are wrong? I have.
BTW what do you think is supposed to happen in heaven?
Rev. 5 v. 11-12
Rev 7 v. 9-12
Psalm 100 v. 4
Rev 19 v 1-7

Many churches eh? do you know how many "churches" there are in this country alone? I seriously doubt you have been to such a significant number of churches that you can judge every single church in the world on it.
So you are applying a few peoples, or even religion's difference in belief to every religion and everyone associated with that religion?(BTW, i think you mean "try" to disprove other religions)
The quotes just say that in Heaven, you will be praising god, not that heaven is just praising god. idk about your baptists roots, but as a catholic, it is taught that heaven is perfect happiness. but heaven is first and foremost...beyond our comprehension. We cant describe what heaven will be like because it is a supernatural reality.
