What, you're not ashamed of how you looked like an uneducated, childish fool?
That's what now? Three times you've made an ass of yourself and ran from a direct challenge?
As for your dumbass not remembering disagreeing...

Godschild, your reply is next. This is for Catfish.
I'm aware you don't believe Aeon to be an indefinite amount of time. Frankly, if that's the case then I don't really care. Any amount of time in torment is uncalled for by a benevolent creator--who, by the way, was described by the very same word therefore he's either not eternal or everything else is eternal . It's not my fault your bible was translated into the KJV and all other translations to mean eternal. I say that's your gods fault too for letting it stand as his direct communication to humanity (if he existed that is).

Verses describing Hell as a sulfery fiery torment
Revelations 14 (NEW TESTAMENT)
9 A third angel followed them and said in a loud voice: “If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives its mark on their forehead or on their hand, 10 they, too, will drink the wine of God’s fury, which has been poured full strength into the cup of his wrath. They will be tormented with burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb. 11 And the smoke of their torment will rise for ever and ever. There will be no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and its image, or for anyone who receives the mark of its name.”
Revelations 21
8 But for the cowardly and [d]unbelieving and abominable and murderers and immoral persons and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire and [e]brimstone, which is the second death.”
Revelations 19
“Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God, for true and just are his judgments. He has condemned the great prostitute who corrupted the earth by her adulteries. He has avenged on her the blood of his servants.”
And again they shouted: “Hallelujah! The smoke from her goes up for ever and ever.”
Revelations 20:10
And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beastu and the false prophetv had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
John 3:36
Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God's wrath remains on him.
(Rev. 19:19-21)
But the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who had performed the miraculous signs on his behalf. With these signs he had deluded those who had received the mark of the beast and worshiped his image. The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur.
1 John 5:12
He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.
Acts 4:12
12 "And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved."
1 John 5:10-12
The one who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself; the one who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning His Son. And the testimony is this, that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has the life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have the life.
Matthew 10:33
33 "But whoever denies Me before men, I will also deny him before My Father who is in heaven.
John 3:14-17
17 "For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him.
God can't be a god over non existential beings, dude. It's pretty clear he's describing there to be an afterlife, not that we die and cease to exist, but you believers get eternal life.
Revelations 14 9 For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living.
Jeremiah states,
"`How can you say, "We [the Jews] are wise, for we have the law of the LORD," when actually the lying pen of the scribes has handled it falsely?' (From the NIV Bible, Jeremiah 8:8)
Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.” (Rev 19:5-10)
...and yet when Jesus comes back he does not correct this faux pas?
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.

Feeding the trolls with anything of worth is wasted, but you've done a lovely job with this spread here. Maybe he really did want to see this. Perhaps he'll surprise us this time.
Lol prolly not. He's stuck on the mistranslation of Aeonian to justify his god as not being a megalomaniac asshole. As far as I can ascertain from a good 8mo of observation of his majority of snide remarks, Catfish is a non conformist Christian. (correct me if I'm wrong, Catifsh.

Wow, you really have no clue about anything, huh?
1st, I am the one who pointed out to you that "eonian" means an indeterminate period of time, so I don't know where you came up with that.
2nd, this is about your claim to have read the Bible and that it says it is unerring and that it is a requirement to follow it.
3rd, you keep harping about punishment being unfair? Who are you, dazzn or Koolay or something???
4th, I'm going to laugh because your opening paragraph about God not being eternal was hillarious as Romans 1:20 was the same verse that I had refered to when I told you that there was a Greek word used in the NT which does mean "eternal". Go check if you don't believe me.
September 10, 2013 at 2:21 am (This post was last modified: September 10, 2013 at 2:23 am by Mystical.)
I don't understand any of your qualms, Catfish. I said you think Aeonian means indeterminate not eternal.
I stated in my first paragraph how there was a word referenced in describing god as Aeonian. I then went on to say that if
god was described as such and he's supposedly eternal, then the rest of the translated references would also have to mean eternal.
Since they obviously do not (in describing Jonah's fish experience and such), then either god is not eternal or he is and everything else does
mean eternal (like HELL).
No, sir. Who do you think You are, to assign a judgement upon me (indeterminate or not)when I've done nothing to deserve such treatment? A judgement your own brethren hold to be eternal torment in hell. My life would be a lot better off not even knowing about your silly viewpoint, honestly. Instead, here you are on an atheist forum telling me that oh I'm only going to hell for an indeterminate amount of time. Seriously, go suck a big one catfish.
OH! AND you're a Waste Of Breath. Your two sentence replies to a half hours+ worth of work? FUCK OFF TROLL.

Why, he's an arsonist, lighting fires to watch the flames. Heck, even when he may have a point, he withholds his full thoughts on the subject at hand to allow others to twist in the wind. That way, he can swoop in with triumphant 'nuh-uhs', 'you are wrongs', and ad hominems. In a discussion and/or debate between multiple parties, I find this close to the vest approach to exchanging ideas damnable.
