Hi everyone,

I thought I'd join up after being referred here by Parkers Tan.
I am a Londoner who crossed over the pond and now residing in Oklahoma, US. Quite a culture shock especially being in the Bible Belt.

I am Agnostic. I look forward to reading and participating in the discussions, see you all around the forum Smile

Welcome
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

Good grief what an awful choice.

Welcome, anyway. This may be your island of sanity.

Welcome aboard Smile I just did a stint in Wichita, KS. Dont be disheartened with America until you've been to DenverWink
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.

What's so bad about Denver? I've never been there, but I've heard good things.
