What has changed in the interim? I mean what’s the point to either cult other than the fact that both are clearly derived from the same root (the book).

Different people. Different demographics.

Choose what religon from what you believe, choose that. Don’t over think it.Edit: or you can try each out and pick the religion that makes you the most happy.

@LadyMarissa I didn’t ask the question. A member from 2011 did. I came across it and wondered how our current crop of Jellies would react.

That quiz is trying to get my email address @RedDeerGuy1.

@Dutchess_lll You can make a temporary email account and give it that then delete it.

I know. I have 60,000 temporary email accounts, including the one I threw together in 09 to join Fluther.

Are you that scared of one or the other, of being in the wrong one when judgment day comes, that you might get left behind by The Almighty? Does it scare you to be of no religion at all? Do you think The Almighty really cares what religion you ended up in so long as you lived your life as He would have wanted you to?

60,000 Email accounts and He hasn’t contacted you on ANY of them? Yet? Much less left notice of said contact here for our benefit?

Who is “He,” @kritiper?

Dutchess_III's avatar

I agree with your assessment though. As long as you lead a good and kind life, who cares which God you believe in?
However, the churches (that were, until recently, the long arm of the law) said you had go believe in the one god they told you to believe it. And you had to give that God money. The long arm of the law would see that the money got to that One, True God, and not find it’s way to the multitude of fake, non-existent Gods.

@Dutchess_III “Him.” “The Big Guy.” “The He who is Who.” Him. If you believe in “Him.” Or “She.” Her Him. Or “Him Her.” You know??

Dutchess_III's avatar

You mean God? No. He hasn’t sent me a single email or text. I’ve been praying for him to.

kritiper's avatar

Yeah. Him. The Big Cheese. Best to pray harder or give it up.

Neither Micheal Jackson nor Donny Osmond sent me a letter either, although I begged them to. Donny is STILL ignoring me on Facebook!
