One random day this week while listening to Flyleaf, Cassie, a question came to my mind.
If someone put a gun to your head and asked you if you believed in god, knowing you were going to die anyways, what would the answer be?
Its kind of taking up 98% of my thought process these days because if I was to say yes and then die, would I get some sort of redemption? would I feel better for that .00000001 of a millisecond after the trigger was pulled?, would I feel relieved?. If I said no, would i worry for that .00000001 of a millisecond that I was going to hell? That if there was a god he wouldn't forgive my sins? Would it make me a worse person? Would I feel relieved?
But then there is the big one, would I know what to say at all? If it really came down to the wire would I believe in god or not? Would I repeat a silent prayer in my head or would my thoughts just consist of strings of cruse words?
Food for thought

I really like that song. In fact I like the whole album. They are considered a christian rock group, though alot of mainstream people really like them. My take on things is I think organized religion in all it's form has lost it's way. I do beleive there is a higher power out there though. If you want, I can give you one good example. According to organized religion though suicide is a sin, since it's murder. You have to ask forgiveness for your sins to be fogiven, but since your dead already you can't ask for forgiveness for that act of murder. So technically it's the one unforgiveable sin. That was the premise behind Constantine. That was a good movie by the way, don't know if you've seen it. Hope your head has fully healed and all this contemplation isn't a symptom of permanent brain damage, lol.
