I can't help but wonder what many awesome gifts I could've gotten if I wasn't raised a spirit warrior for Jesus. Far too many books about martyrs. Far too little Sci-Fi. Or, depending upon which way you're looking at it--way too much Sci-Fi!
Nah, too much fantasy. Sci-fi tends to have at least some basis in scientific fact.
Though there is some fantasy worth reading.
Ahhhhhh!!! Yes I still need to read the book that they made a feature film, about a Postman! I recall quite a bit of science fiction in that one..
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.
