I'm wondering too. Appeal to sympathy doesn't work, like, ever.
I love my dog. Because I love her I don't give her the freedom to choose to cross the road, because I know what will happen. Even if I teach her the road is bad, and I see she decides to go anyways: I stop her. When she's sick I'm there for her and do everything in my power to make her well, even if her great great great great grandma ate a fucking apple. When she does something bad I don't lock her in the closet for an (according to you two geniuses) indefinite amount of time, either. Because I love her.
What part of hell for any amount of time is unjust don't you get? Or are you the 'hell ain't bad' sort? Forgive me if we've had this conversation on your hell stance before; i dont memorize you guys particular flavor of Christian adherence and interpretations regarding hell.
Also if I sound grouchy, I'm just tired.

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.
