You can rationalize your threats anyway you wish. You are not the first theist to point out the suffering of others as evidence for your irrational world view.
What threats, I've threatened no one, how you got that is beyond me.

People like me, are you inferring I would torture someone, if so you're way off base.

Nonsense, you need to bring proof of such wild accusations.
chimp Wrote:At least now all you have is the random events of aging and sickness from which to draw your scary visions from. I know I will sicken and die. Perhaps as an old man , perhaps as we speak. I am free from the troubling thoughts which would add suffering on top of suffering. Your church sounds like it might be like visiting a Halloween Haunted House. Full of haunted people and imaginary ghosts. Tremble away , man!
It's apparent, you've payed little attention to what I posted. You read a post then you make of it what you want it to say, that is deception with a dishonest attitude.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
