Quote:If we were speaking of humans, and talked of a prison instead of hell, you'd be correct, however, this is God that you are up against. You know, you can't really fight back against something like that, unless you have something similar to guard your back.Thing is, the whole god and hell thing is something not to be taken seriously. There are so many fantasies and crazy stories and god is just one more story told but one for uneducated adults to fear. If this god BTW is incapable of reason (the ability to talk things out rationally) then he is a fool and so you must ask yourself, a fool who supposedly poses endless knowledge and power? How does that make even the slightest bit of sense? Also being all knowing, he knew I was due for hell, so why create me in the first place if I was only going to end up in pain? So now we have ourselves a malevolent fool. Only goes downhill from there.
Quote:If you don't it's fine.I'll rule it out like I do with other crazy claims. No special pleading or treatment.
I rather don't eliminate the concept altogether.
No reason to take it seriously.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
