How stupid of him for assuming you have read you own holy book. Yea you are totally right, that was a stupid assumption.

The assumption was that he has read the bible MORE than me.

I never said it was a stupid assumption. It is an assumption, but it wasn't stupid.

Max, it would be helpful if you let us know what your views of heaven and hell are, and, more importantly, how you define the god you worship. That will hopefully keep us from lumping you in with other Christians, as it's becoming apparent that you don't follow your holy book in precisely the same way they do.

When you said: 'I've never even said I've read the bible' it appeared as if you were scolding him for assuming that you had.

I like this Max fellow; I don't think we should scare him away just yet. We definitely need more info on where he's coming from though.

Holy shit this thread is like the size of the unity mega thread on the Ubuntu forums.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

did you read alllll of it?
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.

No but I will try if i have time
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
