bloody brilliant.
i've always thought that if satan/lucifer/the devil etc, was really the enemy of god, then he wouldnt be doing gods dirty work by punishing people. he would be letting people sin and do what ever they want.

so where would you rather do, make a few mistakes and sin on earth and go to a place where you will most likely be able to do what you want. or live a boring life on earth where you can't wipe your arse without asking for forgiveness, only to have an eternity in heaven where most likely, the rules will be a little stricter than down here.

i deny the existance of the holy spirit...and the holocaust.

Mine will be on Mon if I am up to it... "I deny the existence of the Easter Bunny, conservatives in the Republican Party, Santa, Zeus, Allah, Brahman, Kali, Amun-Re, Tiamat, Amateras, Medb, Quetzalcoatl, many more… and, of course, the holy spirit".
It will be my first, in person, YouTube.

I deny the existence of Australia. I believe people claiming to be Australians are just people who picked up a cool accent and decided to be anywhere but this mythical land called Australia.

This entire theory is based on the fact that I've never been to Australia but have met too many Australians for there to be anybody left on that continent.

Q.E.D.

(I met more Australians in the CR than I met Czechs.)

What can be GAINED from the denouncement?

To whom will it prove a point?

We aren't 100% sure one way or another, so why take the risk in the event it is true?

Corps...God... and Country.

You gain a free DVD.

Update for Mon... I think:

"I deny the existence of the Easter Bunny, Conservatives in the Republican Party,
Santa,
Zeus,
Allah,
Brahman,
Kali,
Amun-Re,
Liberals in the Democratic Party,
Tiamat,
Amateras,
Medb,
Kachinas,
Baal,
Wotan,
Ahura Mazdā,
Gaia,
Quetzalcoatl, many more…
&, of course, the father, son & the holy spirit".

I doubt "just in case" belief counts as actual faith.

Wasn't the idea of hell stolen by the Catholics from a play?

The orginal Jews didn't believe in hell (I don't know if they do now).

Exactly, they had a "place of darkness", sheoa(sp?) that was just to be removed from the sight of God... it was not permanent.

Well I like the budhist notion that we're already in hell and it can only get better from here. Of course, I deny the existance of budhists.
