So, uh, yeah, the title pretty much says it. Lots of topics turn into religion debates, so this is meant for that. Mine is Atheist. Feel free to oppose, but I'll oppose your post, too.
arent you christian? from what ive learned here non-christians/homosexuals are doomed to go to hell
Yes. You have learned the christian sterotype. There are thousands of christian denominations. Not all think non-christians and homosexuals go to hell.
idk if thats a stereotype. i do know that many christian believe in that and the reason for that. if jesus died for our sins you have to believe in him to get to heaven. and if you believe in him your techinacally christian. am i wrong?

Hm, it is an idea spread through many christians, so sterotype is probably wrong. But its still not what all christians believe. Many do, but it does not define all.
More specificly,
jesus died for our sins you have to believe in him to get to heaven.
The way I was taught, no.
and if you believe in him your techinacally christian.
Nothing, the mob turned his offer down, broke into Lot's place tried to grab the angels and the angels being sent from the all merciful loving God went "your all going to die".
Remember if you take in a couple of strangers and an mob comes to your door looking for them, do the God approved moral thing and offer up your virgin daughters to be ***** by the mob instead.
And daughters if you've just escaped your all loving God's mass genocide, that God won't look twice as you **** your father, just don't look back or your screwed.
Lot wasn't a godly man... I don't see what your problem is... He desperately wanted his sin-infested home to be spared and it wasn't. The people there were extremely wicked and perverted. The deal lot made with God was if a certain number of people were pure in heart the city would be spared. God followed through with his agreement and since there weren't more than 10 the city was destroyed. It's repeated over and over in the Old Testament how the Israelites fell prey to enemy nations gods and were no longer able to be a God-lead nation. The peoples of these cities either opposed God or were willing to be dissolved into the nation of the Israelites to be spared. Sodom and Gomorrah was opposed to the God of Israel and was destroyed. As simple as that.
if there is a god how should i know how he/she/it looks? god could be a stone or a rat. how can i know that god is a human?
You should do the right thing because that is the right thing to do. It's as simple as that.
tell this to jehovah's witnesses. everything they do is because they get rewarded with going to heaven.
i would like to get judged after my death for what i have done and not for what i believed. i mean, if i would be a pastor and do something bad because i believe god told me to do it and then i die, to which place would i go, to hell or to heaven (even if i think they are on earth)?

I find it interesting there was no mention of trying to find any kids in that story. You would have to think the city had 0 birth rate for this or even infants were wicked, which is ridiculous. At any rate since the free will argument has been mentioned yet again this story does go against this concept of God not messing with free will by directly acting to stop entire groups of people. I also find the argument that an all loving God would use genocide to be ludicrous, even if it was against a group who were evil.
if the bible is true then god is stil p*ssed of that adam and eva ate the apples. it is a sin but i cant remember the name...anyway, god let us pay for it...if the bible is right...

Yes he was. Not by my standards, but the Bible literally just says it:
Peter 2:7 And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked: 2:8 (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds
He desperately wanted his sin-infested home to be spared and it wasn't
Of course he did! Who would want their town blown up? You seem to forget that there was a reason he survived, because Yawheh liked him.
The deal lot made with God was if a certain number of people were pure in heart the city would be spared. God followed through with his agreement and since there weren't more than 10 the city was destroyed.
Not even the kids? The babies? And even if they where evil babies, then why did Yawheh make this bet in the first place? According to the bible, he is all knowing, so he knew that the city would get destroyed. It seems kind of cruel to play with Lot like that.

I think there was an old poem like that, something like if horses could talk and wright and have gods, their gods would be horses.

I don't remember eating a sin fig. Do you? I doubt so. Then why would we be punished?

Its called original sin and apparently we're all guilty of that sin by merely being human, unless your Mary who was born free from original sin and subsequently Jesus for some reason according to the Catholic Church. It's also one of the reasons for baptizing infants. It's really weird and confusing.
adam and eva should not eat from the tree of gnosis. if i remember right god wanted them to wait till they are ready to eat apples from this tree. but the snake convinced them to eat these apples. as soon as god found out they ate the apples from this tree he kicked them out of the garden eden. and thats why we are guilty and must pay for the original sin.
