Do you Believe?

It's their lives, they choose what to do with them.

BAM exactly.. My whole point is, it should be every person deciding for themselves. Yet when i state that view, I am going to hell. The fact is no one here knows what I believe, yet they all seem to think they do.

My biology teacher tells me that the brain is in my head, by your logic, i shouldnt believe that until, oh say, ive cracked my head open and seen it for myself?

Ummm.. nope.. all I need is a cat scan to make sure I have a brain. And it's a proven fact that all humans have brains. It's not a proven fact that there is a "god". I wanna know how do YOU know your religion is the right choice? You can only believe it is. No one truly knows until life is over. And if "god" wants to punish me for thinking for myself, so be it. Eternity in heaven "praising god" doesn't sound very good to me.
