Wouldn't heaven be kind of cold and/or boring?

It's Friday, folks.
So, you all know my angry bias against strongly religious people. This is only when
a) They hate gay people
b) They push Jesus' amazingness on me (no, thank you). 

Other than that, I can understand not really but I probably should people's need to have a positive thing in their lives. As long as they don't take it too seriously.
Unfortunately, a LOT of people do. I was watching some YouTube videos about Westboro Baptist Church (They go to different cities with signs that say "God Hates Fags" etc, etc. They think all soldiers who die serving our countries deserve it. They're clearly psychopaths) and I started getting confused. 
I know the majority of heavily religious people AREN'T as harsh as they are, however, just like the crazies at W.B.C., they are hung up on the idea of heaven vs. hell. 
According to Wikipedia (such a reliable source, I know. Shut up) "Heaven is a transcendental realm wherein human beings who have transcended human living live in an afterlife." It is supposedly "the holiest possible place, accessible by people according to various standards of divinity, goodness, piety, faith or other virtues."
Yeah yeah.  
On the contrary, there's Hell. Oooooh, the ever so daunting Hell. H-e-double hockey sticks, as us young children used to call it. I've been a little bit wary of Hell ever since I saw the original version of "Scrooge". Not enough to start praying to an imaginary god and being a fun killer, though. Hell is APPARENTLY and by apparently I mean the crazy religious people made it up to yell at us about having one too many drinks at the employee Christmas party (once again, according to my best friend Wikipedia) a place of punishment and suffering in the underworld. Yadda Yadda. Want to know more boring fictitious ideas? Head to Wiki, but I'm done spouting information. 


What I'm trying to get at, is that the idea of going to heaven makes people do crazy shit. Like hold up signs that say "God Hates Fags". For some reason, I feel like these people would be rejected at the gates of Heaven. In fact, they'd probably be given a restraining order to go within 1000 feet of it. The bouncers outside Heaven night club (which has ONLY non-alcoholic beverages and doesn't allow grinding) would punch them to Mars. For some reason, I think this is a more likely situation than them enjoying the calm, happiness that is ideally Heaven. 


I literally DON'T comprehend how people can live their lives in FEAR of the afterlife? You have between 80-100 years of life, IF THAT. And you're going to let what happens after you're DEAD control you all of those years? It's insane to me. What a waste. The problem is, people live in fear. Fear controls us and eats us alive. It's sick to see.
It's sickening to see people hate other people SO much that they're protesting at a funeral, because they think the dead person wasn't obeying god. 
Clearly, they haven't heard of a little ditty called RESPECT by Aretha Franklin. I think they need to give that a listen and then feel entitled to go shout discriminatory remarks at funeral goers, who are there to rest their family or friend in peace.
If you're telling me that openly hating people will send you to "Heaven"? Honey you need to be institutionalized. If you're telling me that liking girls will send me to "Hell", then fine. Honestly, Hell sounds a lot cooler than Heaven. Everyone there is totally bad ass and there's lots of fire. Sweeeet. In Heaven, all you'll do is chat with other turtleneck-wearing, Bible reading, crazies like yourself. Oh and possibly hang out with that lady from the Philadelphia cream cheese commercials.
In conclusion;  
When it comes down to it, who gives a flying fuck what happens to you after you die? YOU'RE DEAD. YOU'RE FUCKING DEAD

    Really religious people facinate me. I often wonder how people laugh at Scientology, when any other religion is EQUALLY ridiculous. While serving, the hard-core God lovers are always the rude ones. Always the ones who complain, and not tip. How does that make sense? I think that if there was a God, he would look down on them, thinking they're better than everyone else... and then look at me being polite. Guess who wins, fuckers.

    I personally don't agree with this AT ALL. You're sitting at your computer hell bent and determined that you're part of the lgbtq community whn it's been proven that almsot ALL girl that are hard into to the "gay" sene NEVER end up being a lifer. And secondly I find this very offensive You should not cut up peoples religion, just because you feel the need to dislike God because the bible says it's a sin for a man and a man OR. A woman and a woman to be together. I personally have been offended. I will no longer read your blog.




    And I'm not easily offended.
