Are faith, God and love without deeds, dead?

Just as ants cannot please or offend humans,we cannot please or offend an infinite being. The love and forgiveness of such a being must be unconditional. (another reason for no hell)

I am offended by ants in my house all the time. Smile

How about we discount infinity a little and say some people masochistically enjoy the angst that comes from paranoia about offending a notional being that looked very large to Hebrews who had trouble counting much beyond the number of goats they fucked?
