How is being called back home to a God that loves you doing nothing?
You're a sick man, Drich. Fucking sick. If that's how Gaud calls people home, then fuck him. I hate to break it to you stinky, but God calls all of us home at some point or another. what does it matter if it happens today verse tomorrow? Or do you feel 'entitled' to a minimum 100 years?
Again this is two dimensional thinking. We are in the larval stages of life. death is our pupa. Are you one to mourn a caterpillar every time you see a butterfly? Do you curse God when you see a cocoon? Or again will you mind not stretch beyond the end you see in death?
Quote:Oh, and the reason "being called back home" is the same as doing nothing is that the result is the same as if nobody had been there to watch over him: he was beaten to death, and nobody saved him.
How do you know he wouldn't have lived if their wasn't anyone there to watch over him?
Quote:I know you're gonna say "God saved him by taking him to heaven," and to that I would say:
Actually I didn't.
I don't believe the boy is in heaven right now.
This life is about choice, whether to be with God or spend eternity away from Him. That boy wasn't old enough to make that decision. So I believe that soul was re-routed to another host.

Bold mine.
What proof do you have of this?

Okay, first of all, according to your god, he has a plan. So, no, there is no choice. Second of all, if your god was so great and awesome, he could have spared the boy's life and sent the boy's father to hell for what he did. Third - how can you say that your god called the boy home and then turn around and claim that his soul was sent to another host?
Either the boy went "home", which is to imply with your god, which is to imply a place called "Heaven" or he didn't. Which is it? Stop moving your goalposts to suit your shitty views.
You're talking crazy and there's medication for that.

If there is anybody who deserves to be that poor boy, dying of cruel beating injuries over and over again, and never even knowing why, then such a person person would be you more so than the father who beat him. That man likely has pervasive mental health problems, and is probably feeling genuine sorrow for his son now. You display only the most reptilian sociopathic patterns, no human empathy at all, and your ideas serve no purpose other than to justify (not explain) evil.
Just keep it up, Dritch - the more you post here, the more you exemplify the problem of evil. Sure as fuck, nothing of intelligence would have made you!
Mr. Hanky loves you!

Everyone dies, sure, but there's zero evidence for your assertion that it's because we're being "called home" by a supernatural being, which is what makes your views on this so fucked up. It's like trying to comfort a child by telling it that the dog that was put down today is now in a magical land of sunshine and ice cream that dogs can eat without getting sick. Sure, it might make the kid feel better, but it's a fucking lie, and if your kid takes that assumption into adulthood then congratulations on creating a fucking moron.

Just when I thought you couldn't get any dumber.
You Christians really love your fallacious analogies, don't you? The difference there is that people actually see butterflies. There is evidence to establish what happens with butterflies. Conversely, there is no evidence that souls exist nor that they rise to heaven. What you're describing is more like seeing a caterpillar get squished under a boot and then saying to yourself "Oh, it's ok, he's a butterfly now...trust me."
Quote:How do you know he wouldn't have lived if their wasn't anyone there to watch over him?
Because there wasn't, and he didn't.

What a coincidence: neither do I.

Nice assertion. Got any evidence?
Quote: That boy wasn't old enough to make that decision.
Based on which Bible verse?
Quote: So I believe that soul was re-routed to another host.
You beli... 
 Wow, Drich. Just wow.
"Rerouted to another host"? Sooo...you believe in reincarnation now? There's heaven and hell, and then there's reincarnation for a few random people? Did you hear or read this somewhere or are you just making it up because it sounds fluffy to you? You know some religions have purgatory, right? You could always jump on one of those bandwagons instead of pulling things out of your ass. At least then you could appeal to popularity to support your nonsense.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)

Insane, dangerous religious thinking on display. It matters quite a lot if you're wrong about your totally unfounded premise.

I don't know. What if we're all just figments of the Dripster's imagination. Sure wouldn't want to spend 'eternity' in his hell.

This isn't the first time Drich has resorted to ad hoc heresy. Just sayin'.

I think he used to be a Buddhist, so he's probably getting confused and mixing mythologies.

It still matters even if he's right. I have responsibilities, it matters. That's always the way with religious nuts though, they get shit wrong regardless.
