UC"  I'm glad you're content with your faith.  I have no problem with that.  It's your business.  

"Select your own destiny?"  You are really warning me and every other "non-Christian", "believe as I do or be damned to eternal hell."  i.e....my way or the highway ...with apologies to AC/DC...the highway to hell.  

There are far more non-Christians in this world.  As with Chirstians, some are wonderful people, some are creeps.  Your belief, as presented, is simple. if you're a Christian-creep, you go to heaven; if a good person, even a really good person and have done nothing but good in your life, BUT you're a non-Christian, you will go to hell.  Sorry, I'm not sure there's a god, but, if there is I'd certainly hope he/she/it has a bit more compassion than that.  

Yes, "I'll select my own destiny."  If there's a god and a Judgment Day, I'd rather be in Hell with good non-Christians than in Heaven with Christian-creeps...and, believe me, there are plenty of both.  Gary Crum
