Calling it into question...

Is that directed at me?

I stand for lots of things. You don't know me nor can you judge me. Don't like the fact that I take issue with the tripe you spew? Get bent. Evidence is key around here. Present some and we'll consider your position. Evidence. Not assertions or personal revelation or logical fallacies. Testable, verifiable evidence.

Evidence or shut the fuck up.

You are full of pride and arrogance. You simply refuse to see it.

I am not proud. Never was not even when I was atheist. It isn't in me.

It's certainly in the bile you've spewed all over this thread. Pride and arrogance both. You claim not to be these things yet they continually show up in your words.

Your self image is remarkably resilient.  Able to cop to personal revelation one moment and shrug off allegations of being proud the next.

If there is one thing I know other than Faith it's myself.

The popular descriptions owe much to Dante, but hell is very much biblical.

We can disagree on that particular takeaway. I'm enjoying reading through your comments, though. Smile

Actually, I should have been more clear - conscious eternal torment version of hell is what I do not believe is biblical.  Creating a hellish reality for ourselves here, I would agree is entirely biblical. We still may disagree, though.  Wink

Then I would argue that you know neither very well.

Sure, sure, over 30 years experience in life, but I don't know myself just because others don't.

Nice

We probably will have to agree to disagree. Everyone interprets their scriptures differently. But, jeebus spoke in the NT of a "lake of fire" into which the big devil daddy, all his angels and all his followers would be cast. Whether it's eternal or not is not referenced here, but it is addressed in other places.
