Swimming in a circular pool looking for the ladder is quite tiresome. I agreed whole heartedly with Deist Paladins referral to his past discussion in hopes of moving forward in the discussion. Whats wrong with actually wanting to make headway on an argument? I too am frustrated with the invisible ceilings that we can't seem to get through. I for one would like very much to move forward but unfortunately that means growth on the part of theists. So, not really expecting much. At least Drich watched a video. At least he tries.
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!
Dead wrong. The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.
I say again: No exceptions. Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it. As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.
Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.
