Not sure why you responded like this, makes it very confusing. I smell personal opinion coming later in your post.
Illogical argument. That's like saying you cannot commit murder in the US if you do not recognize the US as a country. Just see how far you get in the courts with that argument. If God does exist, and if the wage for sin really is death, then He is acting completely just, regardless what you think.
Read what I wrote! I said FICTIONAL being. The US is not fictional; therefore I accept their definition of right and wrong and thus their laws. This makes your entire argument from here on out completely FLAWED. My argument was sound and logical, once again it is you who can’t seem to read. Also, it is YOUR opinion not mine that keeps coming into play here.
Again, see how far this gets you in court. "Your honor I was just acting out my natural evolutionary actions when I raped that little girl." It will get you about as far with a judge as it will with God.
We’re not in court and this rebuttal doesn’t hold up for shit. The natural actions that I’m referring to which is the sin that you are referring to is what we are debating god sends us to hell for… the sin of disbelief. The sin of disbelief in an entity that can’t be proven to exist would never be judged in a court of law and THAT is the only sin that god sends us to hell for. I’m not debating you on whether or not rape and murder are wrong because I don’t believe their wrong. That’s just a stupid invalid point. Stop twisting the argument and playing by your own special rules again.
Nope, it's a punishment for sin. Talk about opinion … here you go again.
Again, begging the question. We are trying to discuss whether you and I do deserve hell or not. Merely stating you do not is assuming the proof.
That is NOT what we’re debating. We are debating whether finite sins deserve infinite punishment. There’s a BIG difference.
Since you never bothered to define it with an actual dictionary, we will just go with my definition until you can prove otherwise. Justice is getting what you deserve.
I don’t need to PROVE a definition. Scroll up. Impartial and FAIR are a part of that definition.
Well since this is a discussion about justice, I kind of assumed that getting far better than you deserve would be ok in your book. Grace is not injustice; it's a form of non-justice, which is completely consistent with God's perfection because of Christ's atonement.
FLAWED again … TRUE justice does not have the option to choose when to be just and who to be just to. (However, this is getting way off topic and this is already convoluted as hell, shall we leave this one be for now?)
Where do you get this B.S.? This is all just your personal opinion. Any crime against an infinite perfect being logically deserves an infinite punishment.
“Hey Kettle, you black bastard!” Sincerely, Pot
Where do you get YOUR B.S.? You easily double my ratio of opinions in your arguments. That very last sentence is your own opinion and it is STILL illogical because it has no balance and it is not remotely fair for an infinite being to bring an infinite punishment to a finite human being.
I was actually referring to you whining about God not being fair.
Look, neither of us is going to let the other one win this debate.
Can you give me a rough guess on how much longer you want to keep this back-&-forth going?
It seems rather pointless now. ....
