sorry r.j. but im afraid if anybody is being 'stupid' its your good self. think of it this way - if you have 1 minute to live, you are going to be a lot less patient than a person who has 80 years to live.

if you exist outside of time, then time becomes irrelevant, 1 second has as much value as 1 hour or 1 year. patience is a measurement related to time and thought. i.e. how much of your valuable time are you willing to give up waiting for something to happen. if you have eternal time, it is impossible to be patient. simples.

We Christians have a hope of the resurrection to an eternal life in paradise, where time is of little importance. Have you made the right choice in this temporary life?

well now, thats a whole different topic. my answer is - no im not sure, i would be a fool to be sure about anything. if it turns out your god is the real god then im pretty confident that im a better person than him and i would enjoy the opportunity to tell him what a f'up he is.

Perhaps one day you shall have that opportunity if you earnestly pray for it.

praying to the dude who i have beef with seems slightly crazy, especially as i would prefer that they didnt exists.

r.j. if you were cryogenically frozen and awoken in 10,000 years time and god had not shown up in that time would you stop being a christian?
