Welcome

what kind of visual art do u do?Smile
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.

Welcome to the forums.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Just be sure to look well into the religion you may wish to discredit because if you don't, there is a good chance you'll look like the very same fanatic you were trying piss on.

True, but it's up to the person trying to convince others their religion is true to make their case. And 99.99% of the time they fail miserably so it's not hard to discredit them.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

Tacos like this?

Pork tacos with lettuce, cheese, tomatoes, and herbs.

Muahaha. I do believe I've found my first FF. (Forum Friend).

Considered yourself stuck to my friend's list like two halves of an Oreo stuck to the Cream Filling.



@missluckie26 - I'm a Fantasy Realist. Pretty normal as most go actually. No where NEAR (not even close, I'm being serious here) Boris Vejello, but I'd consider my work to be inspired by the likes of his work. AND his apprentice. She's friggin' amazing.
Musically, I'm a progressive/melodic metal type. I draw inspiration from bands like Septic Flesh, Opeth, Dream Theatre and more for my musical pieces.
In terms of writing, I've only written one novel to any sort of completion (which wasn't near completed at all, but I at least had quite a few chapters done). It was a Gothic Fantasy. I'm currently dabbling in writing Sci Fi. I love Sci Fi, though I'm very picky about it.

He's a good person to turn to for inspiration!

As for his apprentice, are you referring to Julie Bell? She's more than just his apprentice. Smile
