Most christians I know would still call GC a arrogant asshole. I think he is one no matter he buys into.
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.

You're not forgiven and you do not understand God's justice, how much truer could the statement be.
GC
No, I don't understand how anyone could call it justice.
When any rational person can only ever see it as petty and spiteful cruelty against much weaker entities that cannot fight back.

If I stomp on an anthill because the ants refuse to worship me as their god, that's not justice.

A good deal of what people presume to be biblical is actually Americana. I don't remember anything about humans being created equal. Humans are not equal. Never were.

I don't ever remember reading anything in the bible that implied that everyone was equal. Women certainly weren't, and all the OT genocide implied that the Israelites were special. Other than a few vague "we are all brothers in Christ" comments, there's nothing to indicate equality at all. Yet another reason the bible is flawed.

Sounds like a justification for intolerance and discrimination.

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.
