[quote:JediMaster 18055808:MV8xOTMyNDY2XzMyMzY3ODEyX0VDQzcwMzIx] This is an example of how twisted and distorted religion has become in misunderstanding spirituality. A.)Everyone makes their own choice of going to "heaven and hell" through committing good or bad actions. B.)"Heaven" is just a term to describe higher planes of existence free of "negativity". However the whole idea can obviously be used as a term of "enslavement" to get people to adhere to their branded religion "believe in our faith and rules, and you will go to heaven". You don't necessarily even need any particular faith, just as long as you're a good, selfless, loving person, you will go to heaven because you have a good spirit, hence a good spiritual nature. C.)You find most arrogance and negativity within Christianity that has lost it's way, especially with fear mongering conservative radio talk shows. I wouldn't necessarily say all of Christianity is like that. Always remember, the spirit of God is within - the true power of the human being is within. Cultivate the energy/qi body for positive purposes, to help others in selflessness and love. [/quote]

On the conservative Christian radio show AFA Today, evangelical spokesperson Jerry Newcombe blamed the tragedy of the Aurora shooting on the nation’s loss of fear of God and hell. Discussing the victims, Newcombe argued that the non-Christians were going to Hell:
If a Christian dies early, if a Christian dies young, it seems tragic, but really it is not tragic because they are going to a wonderful place.. on the other hand, if a person doesn’t know Jesus Christ.. if they knowingly rejected Jesus Christ, then, basically, they are going to a terrible place.
