I agree with Violet, there's no way around talking about the same things with different people. At the same time though its not unreasonable for a seasoned debator to want to actually get somewhere new with their thoughts. Perhaps there could be an advanced debate forum section? Where both sides review already debated information and move on from there? I know I was certainly very happy and lucky that this forum received my baby atheist ass without being told to do my research--theists and atheists alike.
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.
