It's not the believing in Christ that saves you. Heck according to the bible the devil believes and trembles.True Latvish said:
rather it's the belief and faith that nothing you can do is good enough for heaven but only Christ can get you there, nothing of your own. Repentance+faith in jesus's saving grace=salvation
So any sin is redeemable though Christ, or without Him any sin is unredeemable.

I don't believe that hell exists, and even if I was Christian I'd feel the same way. Why would something create us with free will, say we can do whatever we want, but than say "not really" and punish us with eternal torture if we do certain things? It's like giving us balls just so he can kick them.
Not that I'm saying things like rape are OK. It's a horrible act of inhumanity. I just feel that it's better to not do something because it's harmful to others than to not do it because you're afraid of the consequences.
*finds sneakypenguin's belief system horrifying*
Lets see, I plan to have pre-marital sex, I'm not going to be open to the possibility of having children, I believe that god is an asshole if he exists, and nuns are assholes (I do however think that jesus was a pretty good man, granted he existed. Ironically I hate nuns for reasons that make them a hell of a lot different than christ. Like, being bigots who beat children. Jesus did not beat children.......as far as I know and he didn't have a problem with non jewish/christian people), I'm pro-choice, I'm against proposition 8, and I find religion to be a massive waste of time.

Well the big ones for me:
Envy
Lust
Sloth
Gluttony (I suppose)
Adultery
and also simply not believing in an afterlife in the first place.
I'll also probably get sent down for lying, cheating, not tithing, not helping those less fortunate than me enough, worshipping false idols (if the context is broadened beyond deities), blasphemy, not honouring the Sabbath, stealing (probably) and sometimes being a bit nasty when I'm hung over.
I'll just go the whole "death bed repentance" route to be on the safe side though. Sinning is too much fun.

Personally I think Jesus made all that crap up so he could convince himself he was going to heaven.sneakypenguin said:
Like, "Hey, if I get everyone to believe I'm god so they'll listen to me, and I tell everyone to be a really good person, and they do, then God will have to let me into heaven, because I've helped all these people!"
Then all his underground connections to the Jewish Resistance were exposed after the captured fighters were tortured by the Romans. He got killed, his wackiness made him the perfect big-name martyr, the surviving rebels stole his body after jumping the tomb guards, and this story about him flying to heaven to return some day to kick ass was spread underground to keep the movement alive. And because history is weird, this turned into a Greek mystery cult, which eventually became the Catholic Church, which leads us to all the bullfun we have today.
I think that explains everything. You're welcome.
