LFC. I do not believe a forgiving God could condemn anyone to hell. If we are talking about the OT 'wrath' of God, every primitive culture that had a form of religion blamed someone or something for poor harvest or livestock deaths.

Your questions are all perfect in exposing the faulty mindset of most Christians today. The biblical Jesus reveals God to be the personification of love.

Our representation of our Christian beliefs has been nothing short of anti-christ behavior spewing hatred at everyone who does not blindly follow.
