Um, cause its not a morals thing....
Really, there are guidelines for living and sins and all that. But behavior is not the thing sending someone to hell, if looking at this from a purely Bible based Christianity. It is a belief of Christ as a savior that gets you to heaven so that when your morals do go to crap and you commit a sin, it alright.
I believe that if you think Christianity is a set of rules not to break and morals to uphold, then you got it wrong, imho.
Not that it really should matter to one not following the Bible, but I will quote a well known Bible verse to make my point of what a Christian that believes the Bible should believe :
John 14:6 “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
it doesn't say through me and doing activities A, B, C and adhering to this high moral standard.
But enough sidetracking, people can continue to discuss the main point of the thread
