Z, am I reading this right? Folks who don't believe in God SHOULDN'T want to help others? FWIW, I went to a catholic high school in the 80's. I'd wager 25%, and that's probably conservative, of the kids there were total crap humans, guys who lied and cheated their way through life, drank, drugs, smoked, took advantage, abused, but still had the nerve to judge me cause I didn't go to Sunday service or believe in God. I see this everyday in my adult life too. Are these folks better off than I because they repeat the words, go to service, and tithe, yet... I live my life closer to the healthy teachings of the bible yet have zero ties to a religion and do no believe in a God? Tell me how this plays out at the pearly gates...if they exist?
