Love the Lord your God with all your heart ?

[Rhondazvous]

How true. An abusive god created by a society that thought parents and husbands owned their children and wives and were justified in whatever they wanted to do. Such a religion has no place in the 21st century.

The whole thing about worthlessness is the same tactic used in commercial advertising. "You're inadequate. You don't have what it takes and you never will unless you buy what we're selling."

and if you and your meme are wrong?

What if it has nothing to do with worth, what's being sold or abuse? Again what is it is a simple matter of infected/sick verse vaccinated/cured?

Just suspend the egyptian idea of after life being warranted on works or deeds, and just assume for a moment that eternal life is based on something different. Let's say it is based on being inoculated for a sickness or disease. If one does not get his medicine the will be segregated from the well population and die.

That is what atonement is. It is a protection for the disease of sin.

I'm using the example of the zombie virus in another thread.. Let's say sin is like the Zombie virus. Does it matter if your a good person or not. If you have the zombie virus even if you have not fully turned yet you can still infect others. So then should your 'morality or character' matter when quarantining those who are infect from those who have been inoculated?

What shouldn't be allowed in the 21 century is the atheistic straw man that puts Christianity on the same basis of all other works based religions.

Yeah everybody, just throw the bible and all its problematic concepts away. We'll now follow the Gospel According to Drippy. We're not sinners in the hands of an angry god. We're patients with a gentle god waiting to give us the cure.
