No I was not speaking in mod capacity, I just wanted to get down to the bottom of all this stuff and bring everyone back onto the same page (hopefully). Accusations have been made, and I just want to go over what's been said, what hasn't, and get to the bottom of why we have unhappy posters! Catholic Lady included. Hanky And Lady Camu I am impressed thusfar with your patience in trying to stay on task and de-escalate the situation while trying to get Catholic Lady to understand why she got the reaction she did; from what I can tell, a new member--someone who probably started their account just to comment in this thread--brought up the rape subject. I'm currently working on a bulk post report for mods and posters. I'm not here for anything besides mediation and reconciliation. Please bear with me and give me through this evening to finish up the dots and i's and Q's and T's. Of course this is not a one mod decision or job--we are all working together in the background as well. Have patience with us, we all have jobs and whatnot (me I'm in the hospital trying to piece together a 70pg thread between physical therapy and IV port placements!).
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!
Dead wrong. The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.
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.
Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.
