We can't police our own thoughts. Whatever brief thought pops into our heads is never under our control. Only acting on that thought is, under normal circumstances. So to think we're going to be judged according to something we have no control over is ridiculous.
Of course punishing people for something their parents or ancestors did falls under the same problem.
There's just no way to justify such things. I'm gonna start thinking bad thoughts at whoever believes this is a good system to have, and we'll see how long it takes for them to start feeling pain.
Thoughts that aren't given life through word or deed die unborn. Oh drat, that's abortion. Can't win for losing.
I just recently saw a few videos about the bible's take on abortion. Apparently it's less pro-life than modern Christians realize.
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?
