Lola asked:
…are Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists and all the rest of it that I don’t know the name of, going to Hell?
IN MY OPINION (which I’m entitled to), the bible should be filed under Fantasy in bookshops. It’s completely invented, there’s no proof of any of it, when was the last time god came down and held a meeting? He has the power to come to earth and chat to you all, but unfortunately he’s neglecting his fans. No one likes a Hollywood star who won’t sign autographs so why carry on supporting god if he won’t show his face?
I’m ready for a load of abuse, so bring it!! I’m a nice girl, interested in finding out what others believe in and why they do, so if you could consider that I’m from a non-religious background, just coming here to ask questions and learn why you think what you think, then I’m sure you’ll see there’s no need to tell me I’m nasty and evil and wrong. I’m only interested.
“god bless the pope” (I hope that’s a joke name!) - when did I say I considered myself intelligent? I did I search for the word Intelligent throughout my question just to double check, and nope, it’s not there.

Nouvelle Vague asked:
Fiction or Non-Fiction? If you also don’t mind posting what country you live in that would be interesting.

It’s located in the Fiction section at my local library and at the bookstores, but I also attend a Catholic school and it’s located in the Non-Fiction section there. I live in New Zealand.
I am not being offensive with this question - I am not asking where it should be located, I’m asking where it is located.

christian bookshop?
david d asked:
i went into my local one today and found it absolutely packed to the rafters with books about how to convert mormons/JWs/muslims etc.
i couldn’t see any christian books from where i was standing,nor bibles.
just stuff about healing gays and garbage like that.
what happened to all the christian books ?
yeah,i know,most of ‘em are rubbish anyway but seeings it’s a christian bookshop shouldn’t there be a few books about christianity in it ?
….i struggled to even find a bible.
when i did it was a good news starter version and,next to it,a vast pamphlet about how ghastly the JW version is.
while i was in there the assistant made a phone call
“hello mr X” she said “we have your book ‘the truth abouth roman catholicism’ “.
i don’t think i want to give these people my money
