Where's the justice?
#1
Where's the justice?
Two non-Christians are going about their life. They have a dispute that ends in one being killed by the other. The one left alive in his/her later years becomes a Christian.

Now, according to theology, that person is going to heaven. The one who was killed is eternally getting punished. Where's the justice? How does the killer go unpunished like that?

Why should there be justice in the Christian myth?

Because like many other claims, this one gets thrown around alot. So here I am asking for the justification.

Xtian justice is for xtians only. It's tribal bullshit. What's so complicated?

Like every other religion invented by men it only applies to the ones who pay their dues.

You're asking for justification? I was under the impression you asked where is the justice.

Yeah, so in the example I gave, what would be the justification of that situation? Or is there none...

Is Christian theology true. IOW, is there a heaven and hell?

Death/murder is the ultimate/unforgivable sin. Denying the Holy Spirit is. the one who died early committed this sin while the one who killed his brother did not.

Justice is served.

This appears to be complete gobbledygook.

Is murder or refusing god the ultimate sin?

Were you drinking when you posted?

Which one is the ultimate offence to your god sorry? You've listed two there.

You are your religious beliefs are morally bankrupt but at least you're honest about it.

No its not. Tongue

The eternal punishment hasn't run its course because it can't, its a sentence without end. Justice can never be served with your idiotic tribal god because its still being served for all eternity.
