Bill, you're just one out of billions of people that don't accept
Jesus. Slaying people isn't what the New Testament is about. There are
many, many unbelievers and many, many believers that think they're
going to Heaven even if they commit sin. Anyway, evolution doesn't
give any meaning and purpose to life. To just be born, live and die is
meaningless without a chance for eternal life. If physical matter
started with a big bang out of nowhere if nothing existed, that would
seem to be as unbelievable as believing in God from your point of
view.
