Miss Direction's my name, welcoming newbies is a fun game! Tiger

Seriously, though... welcome Smile
Heheh, well, I would never have noticed. XD Thanks for the welcome.

*drool* No, I'm afraid that as a committed neutral I can't accept anything from the dark side, regardless of how...delicious...it happens to appear. The Chedder Monks would kill me... Thanks though! Big Grin

Pizza takes just a millisecond for me to appreciateWink theoretical physics, well, I have yet to come up with my lifelong goal of a working model transporter. Let me know if you do, I have a specific place I need to go.

I agree. when you let your mind be made up rather than basing your beliefs on the evidence: it seems rather pointless to read alternative subject matter. Me? I'm still waiting on any reason whatsoever to believe there is a god.

Welcome, young theist. I'm glad you made it hereSmileStick around
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!

Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.

Dead wrong.  The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.

Quote:Some people deserve hell.

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.

Aye, been one for at least some 16 years, now... how about you?

I'm not really sure whether people start really getting gender until they're something like 4 or if it's innate from infanthood Thinking
