Responding to Karla's question

"Is religion a fair pass to an eternal life?"
I was also thinking about this question, especially during today's class discussion.I seems like the possibility of getting into heaven after our time here on earth is one of the only reasons to be happy or go about our lives normally each day. But if that were the case how would non religious people feel about life? That we live the lives we were given, die and that's it? Being a good person and following God's rules from any position of religion could be the way to that ever lasting paradise in the heavens. It all relies on the faith of what each individual believes and that maybe there must be some great reason for why we are living on earth in the first place.

An intriguing question Prof. Johnson brought up today in class was the classic "if you could go back in time and relive a situation, would you?" I love this topic because it would be so interesting to have the knowledge of what we know today and bring it back to a time when perhaps we made a mistake. What would we change? What would we say or do different? Would we even want to change anything at all? Personally I believe everything happens for a reason and that it was supposed to happen at the time it happened for a reason too. So to answer that question for myself, no I would not go back and change anything.

I am curious to others' thoughts on this topic however.
Would there be any situation that you would want to go back and change? and why?
