That little concession right there provides a clear and demonstrable need for the creation of Jesus in the first place. Re-branding. People didn't like the douchegod, so they made him an everyman. 
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

So God doesn't care about my free will then. He's not such a "loving merciful God" after all (Schocking).

So your saying if am I wrong (I'm not, and I know it) I can actually enjoy the place which teh Religions scare children into believing, so they aren't pocked by little red men with horns and spears or a nasty Goat man?
TIME TO SIN!
No Gods, no Kings, only man.

Not if you are in hell.

Wrong, try again.
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.

Love the certainty of the religiously rabid. You have no more notion of what heaven is like than any other zealot from any other cult.

Because everyone has their own idea of Heaven, obviously. Just like every theist has their own unique concept or mental construct of a deity.
My 'heaven', is the inevitability of this chaotic nightmare of existence ending, and re-embracing the peaceful bliss of eternal oblivion.

Logically, if the omni-benevolent omnipresent god is real, hell cannot exist in any shape, state or form.
You'll have to quit this platonic love nonsense and finally accept you're part of an evil cult that believes in an evil tyrannical deity portrayed in the immoral Bible I'm afraid. Not that you ever will of course. Without the fear of sin or the threat of hell, you have nothing.
(June 7, 2012 at 6:50 pm)Aiza Wrote: Annihilationism? I think the idea there is that "do what I want or I will kill you" is sort of a conflict with the idea of free will, making it so that the choices you have are to be holy or...nothing at all! The annihilatists would disagree with you. You do not speak for them. They assert god is too merciful to allow the godless to exist in perpetual suffering and sin for eternity, so effectively, puts them out of their misery.

That's not an option.
