I do not believe in an afterlife

I do not believe God has direct control over the Universe, or he directly created it.

I believe God is an omnipresence that is the result of sentience.

So basically

God is shorthand for 'the universe'

No

God is above the Universe

So, the cosmos.

Tbh the golden rule is flawed

"Treat others the way you would want to be treated"

cuz if you're a zealous religious person you could rationale it as
"well if i was gay i would want to be killed for my sins, hence i should kill gay people"

In Gnosticism it is called the Aeons

Shut up.

"I CALL IT SOMETHING DIFFERENT"

Salvation is also not granted to you by God, but achieved through internal revelation and self actualization

Good for you.

Salvation is afterlife.

@Dr.Wol that is nothing to do with golden rule, that is projection of a false narrative to justify a personal desire

That is only one view on it

I'm sick of the contradictory views that pretend to be mutual.

Religion is full of that shit.

Buddhism doesn't have an afterlife yet nirvana is salvation

Because the kingdom of heaven is inside of you and all around you. It is a matter of realizing and comprehending God which can only be done through acting in line with God.

@Dr.Wol it's a common flaw in people's 'logic' in which they start at the goal they know is wrong then work backwards to justify it to themselves. No matter how flawed their arguments are it has to be included and lead to the goal they already established, even if said arguments are actually against that goal

*sighs*

why I am a christian'

Because you're a gullible shithead too afraid of there being nothing after death

So you turn to religion to help you sleep at night.

That seems like a lot of self projection.

No, it's not.

that's why a lot of people fear the lack of god.

because the alternative is too bleak for them to consider.

you know what all those people think? are you the god your claiming to know the non existence of?

because if not, that entire argument is BS

They fear the lack of purpose that comes with not having a God or an ultimate principle to justify their life's meaning.

Dude, so many people believe in religion because they're scared of death being a black void

They love to hear the opposite.

Many do, but certainly not all.

Oh, right. #NotAll
