Alright, stemming from precipitations stupid-ass
Thread, the "Athiests Can go to heaven v 2.0, has been spawned. The original has been ruined by people going off on tangents. Let's keep this thread focused.

To kick things off, I feel that many people misinterpreted my message in the original "Athiests can go to heaven" thread. My beliefs in God closely follow those of Transcendentalism.

In the early 19th century, the Harvard-educated me such as Emerson began to read the scriptures of eastern religions, namely Hinduism and Buddhism. After doing so they examined their own religious assumptions against the scriptures of eastern religions. "In their perspective, a loving God would not have led so much of humanity astray; there must be truth in these scriptures, too." Truth, if it agreed with an individual's intuition of truth, must be indeed truth.

Hence, I took that theory one step further resulting in my belief that Athiests are capable of getting into Heaven. Let me stress this fact: I believe in God. However, it seems completely illogical and counter-religious for God to turn his back on such a large amount of people; athiests included.
