Your theory about being motivated because there is no life after death seems sound, but that would be so depressing in my mind I would be completely unmotivated.
To use your analogy, why would you want to go to a closing theme park at all? why not just not go (suicide)? wouldn't you wonder why the theme park is closing (questioning=religion)?
Again, you are close. How to express? Ah. Without god we wouldn't exist. We believe in god, as our religion. Therefore without our belief in god as our religion, we wouldn't exist (why create something that don't love you?). Does that make sense? If it doesn't just ignore the comment.
It seems that if you don't have an answer for the "true" answer question, you will just have to accept what people believe. Honestly, no matter what you reason or believe, you are still putting so much faith into your beliefs without a lot of proof.
take the big bang for example. Don't you think you are putting a lot of faith in your beliefs when you believe that we came about because a tiny speck of sand (that no one can explain how it existed) blew up and created everything? That would seem to take a lot of faith to believe. Or scientology. We are all descended from an egg an alien dropped into a volcano. When you consider some theories, christianity doesn't seem so absurd.
Now that thats done, I believe that homosexuals are simply sinning and disobeying gods plan. I don't understand why, but they choose to do it. I don't think they should get into heaven because they are choosing to sin by commiting homo acts. It seems to me that they could become good people if they stopped acting homo.
I gotta go. I'll get on later.
I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.
I gave in, and admitted that God was God.
