    This is kinda hard to explain,but I'll try.I believe every person born is born into this world with desires and beliefs broke down in percentages.
    I also believe our life is planned out for us like Andrew posted earlier.Maybe God created you with only 40% desire to believe in him and you chose the 60% not to believe,I don't know.Also...how do we all know that our choices in life aren't tests that he has laid out for us and He already knows which choice we will make?? In real life...some tests are hard,some are easy right? I think our lives are one big test that we have to live out and do the best we can.

    You explained that perfectly.

    Okay, so let me get this straight. Now there is a Christian God, a Muslim God, a Hindu God, an Atheist Creator and a Devil. All the Gods/creators have a game plan and the Devil runs around screwing with ALL of them. No one on Earth has to be accountable for anything, because no matter what happens it was either a) part of the plan, or b) caused by the Devil.

    Can we just end this thread and start one about who would win in a fight between The Hulk and Superman? I mean really, do you hear yourselves?

    Hasn't there always been a Muslim God, Hindu God, etc? Isn't that who millions of people worship? As for being accountable, your plan has already been written, so you dont have any control over what happens.

    Sure, go ahead. It's what I believe in and am sticking to it. I dont care how crazy it sounds, I know it is crazy, but it is what I believe in. I don't expect anyone else to believe the same thing I believe in, and that is what is great about it.

    I just had so many questions that nobody had answers to. It was just easier for me to 'create my own religion'.

    I was under the impression that all religions worshipped the same God. If there already was one for each religion it is news to me.

    I do not believe that everyone worships the same god as they apparently all 'ordered' different things.

    Okay, well back to the thread topic. So you do not hold yourself accountable for anything you do? Hypothetically, you could kill the next person you see, or rob the corner store, or even strike your own mother and then claim it's not your fault. It was part of God's plan.

    Well, I hope something like that is not coded in my book. I never said it wouldn't be my fault, but god would help me move on and probably have my face the consequences.

    Plus, sometimes like that would be the devil's doing, not gods.

    Not so fast. Maybe God's plan has you serving time so that you can do some good while in the pen. Perhaps His plan has you ministering your beliefs to fellow inmates.

    Maybe so. I guess only the future will tell.
