Wow, I totally joined this forum today and did not expect to see a thread like this going, XD

I would like to thank you for make the point that you are not generalizing all christians, personally I am a christian myself,

There are some aspects to certain christians that drive me insane, like the ones that try to shove our beliefs down other peoples throats, this isn't fair. And I was once one the people gagging on it, funny how I'm here now.

Anyways, I would just like to reply as a christian who feels spiritually compelled to do so. I have not read much of the bible yet, but I am strong in my convictions about God.

If anything I say offends you I apologize

It is very difficult for someone who has not 'experienced God's presence' as I'll put it to understand why Heaven seems like such a great place, I will try to explain it through a more general life situation:

You meet someone, and they care for you unconditionally. They love you and accept you for who you are like no one else you have ever met. You fall deeply in love with them in return. Such strong feeling gives you uncontrollable compulsions to make them happy by living or acting a certain way. You want to spend the rest of your life with them, making them happy.

However life is like in heaven all I know is that I love God (Yes I know its smothered in that cheesey goodness when I say that XD) And I want to be with him,

And that was my first post
Go me XD - Hope everyone can take something from that

(Btw I can spell Violence - Its suppose to be Violence and Violin together)
