Quote:Not choosing is still a choice and the onus is on individuals with volition for their choices or lack therofIf you say so...but I didn't have anything to do with the creation of the lava cesspit..so it hardly matters.
Quote:I really am open. I first have a commitment to myself and flush out any irrational, bigoted or non-congruent thoughts. My faith has to do with evidence and experience. It doesn't excuse anything and I may not understand everything, or subjectively morally agree with everything, it's perfectly fine to question God. The Bible has many examples about it, and I try and do it when necessary, if not often. If you believe Creating Hell is immoral, please cite some reasons that have not been rebutted or answer some rebuttals. I'm still having trouble seeing your side of it and would like some assistance.I believe that you sincerely believe that. I've already cited reasons that creating a lava cesspit is immoral. You've only contended that it's not immoral, in gods case at least, because I make choices..and there just had to be some non-a place...or something.
Honestly, what else is there to say? I hold imaginary gods to the same moral standards that I hold men, in these discussions. The exercise is clearly academic, there is no god, and no lava cesspit. If I'd throw a guy in the clink for criminal negligence (and that's the generous assessment of what was done)...then it's a matter of simple consistency in the case of the divine.
