How do christens justify child molestation?

[Astreja]

Technically either a threat exists or it does not, no matter how anyone feels about it. Objectively there are only two positions on a proposition p or !p. We should trust the evidence, and in the case of Mercy's claim, we have none.

Even if the threat itself is ludicrous, making such a threat is IMO a form of verbal and psychological abuse. When someone plays the hell card in a religious discussion, it tells me two things about them:

• They willingly worship an evil god that allows people to be tortured for a infinite period of time, in an utter travesty of justice.
  
• They don't understand that Pascal's Wager-style lip-service belief is not religious faith, or they don't actually care - they're more interested in coercing a public show of consensus via argumentum ad baculum.
