I do not believe you.
I believe that once you die, your atoms will endure but that "you" will be gone forever. I believe that resurrection is a myth and that souls are likewise imaginary. As I see it, there is only the physical brain, and only when that brain is alive do we have minds.
Your destiny is eternal insentience, unless your atoms make it into the bodies of other sentient beings, and it is highly improbable that all of your atoms would make it into the same sentient being at the same time, or that you would remember any details about the person you are now.
That would be reincarnation, don't believe in that. Do and always will believe in the resurrection of the dead that will be reunited with their spirits. I understand where you stand but it doesn't make your stance any more valid because I understand.

Then I pity you, that you have such a negative opinion of your fellow human beings that you deem them deserving of horrific punishment for the most trivial of imaginary reasons. You have spent so much time trying to be a model christian, you have lost what it means to be human. For that, you have my pity and my disgust.
I do not want/need your pity nor disgust. I'm a much better human being because I have a relationship with God, I see more now than I ever did. I do not have a negative opinion as per deserving an eternal punishment, it's what will happen and I do not want to see anyone here finding themselves in hell. I'm sorry if you take my concern for your eternal life in any way other than a desire to help.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
