I don't believe in the Big Bang, it is impossible. Nor do I believe in the steady state theory. I belive in God. If you want to you can laugh.
Feel free to argue, I will post my full analysis later.
Just don't reduce yourselves to swearing chimps! :D

Maybe in both ways...

Heh, well, I guess there's different ways of getting in. The main way obviously is believing in God, praying, giving some time to hom etc. But I wouldn't of thought that if you were a good person who believes, but doesn't actually take part in stuff like praying, would go to Hell.
Who knows eh?? I did hear a guy's testimony once on video. He died for a few seconds, and he described this long experience about how first he went to Hell. And judging by his description, Hell is nothing like we've ever imagined.

hmm... was that sarcastic? I didn't think my post was particularly scientific, but if you thought so...
Not at all, you refrained from insulting my beliefs and just put yours forward, I admire that.
and yes, there is the moral side, and I thought your dialogue was very funny :D
But as Any says, We'll just have to wait and see.

Nope, it's not black and white, and that's something even us Christians don't know about. I guess we'll find out when we kick the bucket, or when we pop our cloggs, or any other metaphorical sense of dying.
Maybe it was meant to be insulting, but the Stryke bit made me laugh. :D

Well, I'm afraid neither of you are going to get one. :D
But what Darkness put it about right, yeah. God will effect your life if you let him.
And Sibs, thank you

hmm... was that sarcastic? I didn't think my post was particularly scientific, but if you thought so...
anyway, the thing not really touched upon here is the moral side. We have all been ranting over "you can't prove this or that" stuff, but even IF a God does exist and created us, by what right can he decide if we are evil or good? Ant said because HE CREATED US (or something similar in capitals :p) but that is like saying a father/mother has the right to decide the fate of a child for doing something wrong like lock him/her in a cupboard for however long to 'think about the wrong' etc. A parent should be able to chose a punishment that fits the crime. It's not black and white. Heaven and hell.
So, I die, go up to heavens gates...
God- "Sorry, can't let you in here."
Sibs- "Why the he... I mean why not?"
God- "Because you don't believe in God"
Sibs- "Well I do now... your standing right in front of me"
God- "Well, you didn't beleive in me when you were alive."
Sibs- "So, there was no proof!!!"
*other guy floats up to gate*
God- "Welcome into the realm of heaven"
Sibs- "How come he gets in?!?"
God- "He believed in me."
Sibs- "But I saw him on TV... he was some religious nutter who went around killing all 'sinners' who didn't go to church every Sunday"
God- "I know, but he believed in me."
Sibs- "WHAT?!? Jeez, with that kinda logic I reckon hell could be preferable!"
*Ant floats up towards heaven after being strangled by Stryke in another debate, as Sibs begins his descent to hell*
Ant- "I told you Sibs!"
