Organized religion just has never worked that well for me. I do believe in God, and that there is "life" after death, I cannot dismiss the existence of the other side, if that makes sense. But I don't believe that being a member of any certain religion is an automatic ticket to heaven, I think being a good person is the most important thing. Those are my beliefs, I'm not speaking for a specific religion, just myself.

I agree with you on the ticket to Heaven thing. A friend of mine is a Baptist and is comvinced that I'm going to hell because I'm Catholic.... I honestly don't find that very reassuring. He also thinks that Mother Theresa went to hell. Anyways, I believe that good people who have good morals and lead just lives will go to heaven, even if they do not believe in God.
