Do you believe in God?

[Halfhourdays]

What happens to people who commit suicide in the afterlife (if there is one)?

 

[pauly369]

I dont think hell exists.
I think its mostly an invention of man - made religions.
There is no mention whatsoever of a suicide going to hell in the bible, absolutely none.
Also, the catholic church invented the notion of suicides going to hell in the 6th century AD, AFTER the bible was written.

 

[Praestat_Mori]

If an almighty all-merciful god makes people's lives hell so they see no other option but suicide only to punish them afterwards in hell then that's truly a sadistic god.

An almighty god could just make a world that pleases him and solve all people's problems that make them suicidal.

I'm a Christian. I believe, but it's really hard for me sometimes.

 

[EvisceratedJester]

I don't believe in there being a God

 

[FuneralCry]

No, I believe religion to be invented by humans, to me existence is something completely futile with no deeper meaning or purpose behind it, existence to me just feels like the most terrible tragic mistake and I see it as such a terrible tragedy how this existence of cruelty and suffering all for the sake of it was even imposed at all even know it was all completely unnecessary. The way I see it existence doesn't serve any function, it just tortures existing beings all for the sake of it until all is gone and forgotten for them in non-existence anyway, I see no point to any of this, it's all just senseless and all I personally hope for is to never exist ever again, I'd just never wish to be burdened with this existence at all.

"Our Lady reportedly appeared in Zeitoun, Egypt hovering above Saint Mark's Coptic Church for a span of three years. She appeared on many occasions especially at night, and sometimes she was accompanied by white doves. The apparitions attracted large crowds up to 250,000 people including Christians, Jews, and Moslems. The apparitions were photographed, filmed and broadcast on Egyptian TV. An estimated 40 million people witnessed the events."
So many people saw this happened. It wasn't one time event, it was 3 years! So, I do believe in God.

I believe this is all a computer simulation, personally, which has weird implications for the afterlife.

 

[OptingOutSmiling]

I don't think anything different would happen to someone who decides to leave early. IF there is some kind of judgement, we will still be judged based on the kind of person we are, same as anyone else.

 

[LittleNelson]

I do believe in God but not the Christian God who sends everyone to Hell. I think God is an all-loving being and we will feel that love in the afterlife. I also believe in reincarnation and that our souls never really die. Hopefully all the suffering were are feeling now is just a lesson for the next life.

 

[Forever Sleep]

I'm hoping there's no God and no afterlife but, I'm unsure. If there is a God though, judging by how this world was created, they are sadistic. So- any manner of horrible outcome is very possible. Hence why I'm hoping they don't exist! Even if they do exist and by some miracle, I get to heaven, I doubt I'd be happy there either.

 

[HerculePoirot]

He does not believe in me, so no. Sorry.

 

[BeyondOver]

To be honest im not sure myself.

Theres like a battle, the religion i follow ofc doesnt allow gay marrige so i kinda fight the fact. (Not catholic nor mormon)

Again I dunno my sexuality either and if god loves all it should love people that care for eachother regardless of race right?

But I somewhat belive that their is a god on this world even.

Ofc I dont like forcing people what I believe in ive been in studying the bibble since very young and the people in it are every welcoming and nice but im afraid to voice said concern.

Plus I believe that god doesnt even someone like me cuz Ive done so many wrongs.

 

[Pathetic and Sad]

yea I believe in me

 

[TotalEclipse]

I'm polythiestic.
I also do think that "if god real why bad thing" is a very simplistic and juvenile perspective. I would never say people have to become theologians before they can have opinions or anything, but it's really not that difficult that go beneath such a surface contradiction if you put some thought into it and maybe read a few authors, which caould even be just online articles from people who don't seem stupid and insane.
