Here's a question and the subject may have been broached before.
Why do we hear about more than a few people who claimed that they are athiest all their lives, on their deathbeds or when they are near death, beg God for mercy and forgiveness?
Case in point, Madeline Murray O'Hare. Were they frauds all their life, claiming to not believe in God? Or did they have a epiphany?
One wonders.....
Here are some free bonus answers as well.
- Her name is spelled "O'Hair" not "O'Hare."
- She did not have a "deathbed." She was kidnapped and murdered.
- Not everything your pastor tells you is true. He's almost certainly not deliberately lying, but rather he, like you, is just passing on stories that he heard and that happen to help his argument.
- I've seen your posts on economic issues in the "Debates" forum; I advise you to stop being a religious nut and actually study a topic properly.
