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. I'm a former Floridian and Zonie. Went to boarding school in Paradise Valley. In my experience, which isn't everybody's AZ was more tolerable. I ran into lots of crazies in FL (TB area). AZ, not so much. Just materialists (PV is "Scottsdale's Scottsdale").

Nowadays, I am too heat sensitive for either. San Diego suits me somewhat better.

I'm a 55 year-old atheist living in Phoenix, Az, USA. I was formerly active on the old Internet Infidels board until the Great Meltdown in late 2007. I miss chatting with fellow heathens so here I am!

I never minded crazies, as long as they aren't violent. Normal is boring. Part of my time in Florida was in Key West. Not too many normals there.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

You never gave me your muffins when I joined, ms Losty.

Mind you, I was already here long before you - but that's not the point! Muff me, dammit! Or must I put you across my knee again? Or as well?

Oh, hi to the new guy too. Big Grin I think you and Min are going to have lots to talk about, being fellow... Phoenixes? Phoenices? Phoenicians?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Welcome AFTT47. I was in the AF 79-82. The dark years. I joined after the got rid of the GI Bill and before it came back. I was stuck with the VEAP program, put the maximum $2700 into it and got the maximum $8100 out. It didn't go very far, but my timing in civilian life has not been so terrible.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
