That's kind of like saying to a married person what "decisions of yours aren't tainted by threat of divorce"? You serve God out of love not fear.
Many of you here have stated that if heaven exists, you wouldn't want to go there, so if all good things come from God, things like joy, peace, love, kindness, and so on... then hell is simply a place where none of those things exist.
Let's use the sun as an example for God, I think we can all agree that the sun is a good thing, yet imaging you have a group of people calling the sun evil because millions of people are dying of melanoma (even thought they have been provided with a lifetime supply of free sunscreen), and these folks announce that they would rather live on a planet where there's no sun.
Wouldn't that be a horrible existence?
You're as dumb as a bag of hammers.

The idiocy just keeps on coming. Nonsense is the ignorant person's best friend.

Really? What part isn't real?
The god part, dumb-ass.

The point is you claimed that timelessness cannot exist in reality, and this supposed "mythology" has declared that light is timeless 2000 years ago which is also vindicated scientifically.
No, he didn't, and no, it hasn't.

Doesn't punishing people with hell if they don't believe put the onus on god to provide proof?
At least if he is a moral being? To say nothing of being the most moral being.
Evolutionist believe it's criminal to reject evolutionary science, believe me I've heard it many times on this site.
You just a lying dick. No one has ever said that, let alone you, unless they were lying, like you are now.
Your god must be proud of you.
