Ok, so the idea with God is that if you don't believe in him, you go to hell. Who is saying God is the right god. What is supposed to happen to people of different religions when they die? Or is God, Buddha, Allah etc just different interpretations of the same being?

Also, why are we allowed free choice to be atheists, but we supposedly get punished for not believing?

According to most religous people, you go to Hell if you do not believe in their religion.

If one is a Christian, they cannot believe in free will. If someone knows what you are going to do before it's done, free will does not exist.

Even if your God does not change my actions, the mere fact that he knew what I was going to do before I did proves that the Christian God does not believe in free will.

Sorry for not putting it together better, I am late for class.

also (this might be worng, from what i heard, hell is just somoethuing the christians use to scare people into their beliefs. im not sure if that is true. but the jewish people believe in the same god and some same principal that christians do, yet they dont believe in hell.(this could be wrong, buti heard it and i thought it would fit this topic).

also most realigions belioeve in one superbeing contolling everything we do (or somethign like that). budda isnt a god, he is a role model for a good life. the dalai lama is supposed to be a reincarnation of him. but following their religish beliefs follows alot of other religious beliefs. most major religions are lossly linked. to behonest i think that if you follow waht you belive you will be fine.
