Opinion of Worship or Belief
I'm not going to name names, but i've recently received some very disturbing messages from one or two people i have never spoken to before. I've ignored them as to me they're just trying to start a fight but what they said got me thinking and i just want to know your opinions about it. I'm a Pagan, meaning i worship Nature, the Earth itself and the power it gives us from the Moon, the Sun and the Universe. These messages were saying i was going to hell for not believing in God.
Before i ask i have to put some rules here 1. no fighting with each other. Opinions vary, so no name calling or saying people are stupid for believing in something you don't. 2. quotes are all fine and good as long as you can explain in your own words what they mean.
So here's my question - what is the true worth of worship or belief and what is the difference?
I'll explain why i have to ask. Though i am Pagan and do not worship the Christian God or Islamic Allah or Buddha, i BELIEVE they exist in a way, as so many people do. I'm not saying these religions are wrong. They are right for their own people and i support them and love to understand and gain knowledge about their religion and ceremonies etc, but though i believe they are true in a way, does that still mean i shall go to hell because i do not worship them?
Is there a true difference between Belief and Worship like i think there is or are they the same thing?
I would like to know what so many people think about this, whatever religion they worship or even if they don't believe in anything.
