Why would folks do that, knowing what the consequence will be? Maybe that part is confusing to me. So in a sense, maybe I am confused about that part.
When someone knows the path to Heaven, and still curses HIM. Why don't you try to help me to understand that? | I am trying to help you understand this. Your understanding resides in your answer to yourself about why you reject other holy books (of islam, for example) and their notion of hell. You are surely an infidel damned to hell according to Mohammad.
Yet you feel the strength of will to utterly reject the islamic stance on paths to heaven. You reject the catholic view of the path to heaven (through intermediary saints, etc). According to all of these other people, you are "risking eternal damnation"...
Why do you take this risk? Why have you chosen to follow your specific path to heaven? When you understand why you reject the other notions of damnation, you will understand why I reject yours. |
OH OG... COME ON MAN!!! Is that all you've got? Answering a question with a question? That's some more of that egg-head, brainiac, nonsense. Why can't you just give me a straight answer? I'm really not into the philosophical
mumbo-jumbo. I just don't get it, man. Your gonna have to come down out of your higher learning tower and talk plain English to the common folks like me. I'm not quite up to your speed when it comes to the high-brow stuff.
Just a simple answer will suffice. OK?
