How Real Is Christianity?

I'd rather wait than believe that. Don't you ever tell me that nothing makes more sense than your religion. That disgusts me.

I've achieved nirvana before, it kind of sucked.

Is this what you know of Bhuddism really? What is nirvana in your own words?

And people on here say I'm arrogant when it comes to religion...

It was a joke, for the love of crap. Nirvana is when you give up all possessions and need of possessions. And that seems pretty stupid to me. if you're happy when you receive something, and sad when you lose something, why would it make you the happiest to give it all up?

I went to heaven and all I got was this lousy T-shirt.

This has to be one of the stupidest posts I've ever read.

So it doesn't seem stupid to you that one being made the entire universe? And that his son was sent to die for sins? He sent his son... his actual child... who he apparently loves uncondiationally... to get tortured. Does that make sense? And does it make sense that people are still killed for their wrong-doings today? Don't call the beliefs of other religions stupid.
