And what is eternal life and who is god?

I'm a literalist. No twisting involved Smile

Eternal doesn't quite match the original word. It's just a long time. Eternal life is spiritual life that supposedly doesn't end at physical death.

God is a concept, by which we measure our pain. Oh sorry... Who. God is love.

I never understood Christian theology. This concept of linguistic devices somehow being creating meaning makes no sense. Being "born again and "spiritual death" all make no sense to me. If lying and semantics are the primary tools for Christian theology then no wonder it is going belly up int his day and age.

So what did you mean when you said that spiritual life doesn't end when you die? Start making sense.

Your soul is timeless, you said. I agree.

What in your mind contradicts that?

No no no. I did not say anything about a soul. I don't even think it exists.

In what way is it just that non believers go to hell?

Jesus is the savior of everybody. He wanted to save us from sin so he made hell eternal to ensure we are thankful for him Wink

That's a loving freak of a sky daddy
