My son has told me that he doesn't like me and he doesn't want to play with me. Admittedly, it hurts.
I will die, I regard my offspring from the point of view of wanting an affirmation and continuation for myself because this behavior encourages me to nurture my offsprings. This is why I feel hurt. My genes are less likely to pass on and my line more likely to go extinct if I am not so made. Why was god made this way?
If god plan to die soon and is hoping that I will carry on his memory and is predisposed to conduct himself in a way that would allow his genes to carry on, then I would understand if he feels hurt.
Otherwise his "hurt" would seem to be the ruse of a vain, shallow, manipulative, despotic and not a little emotionally afeminent tyrant.
BTW, if god plans to die, let me know because I want to be there to throw the first fire brand onto the funeral pyre and take my share of the inheritence. That's a prize worth the showing of some love in his remaining days.

Did he banish the concept of eternal torment? No. Therefore did he do everything? No. Why not? Because he is menifestly not all powerful and need to issue threats to effect desired result.

So why torment eternal? If god never turns his back, then anyone could go to hell, weigh the the torment of the singed hair against the burden of loving a god whose back is not turned, and be out of lake of fire and up on a cushion of clouds caressing Jesus in a jiffy.

If he is omniscient and omnipotent, then whose fault is it if he can't even make the children he creates love him? If he deem the loving of himself by his creation to be a good thing desireable in all his creations, then how sadly lacking must be his quality assurance and control if his junk pile is so big that it requires its own manager and an entire lake of fire to accommodate? And how benevolent is a god who would burn your tiny little testicle in a lake of fire forever to relieve his own frustration at his own sad lack of quality assurance and quality control?
It seems like god lack even the good grace to resign to take responsibility for his incompetence.

Should have left CC along, fr0d, it looked a hell of a lot better for your religion than what in your opinion is actually said.
