Evil = sin so to speak, it is those who sin and are not believers in Christ who will spend eternity in hell. Sin = not doing the will of God, I do not know how anyone can possibly be perfect enough to do God's will every day. Forgiveness is the key, forgiveness comes through Christ. Everyone sins, it's those who accept Christ who attain forgiveness, those who do not accept Christ do not receive forgiveness and thus hell is their eternal destination.
Doesn't that seem like a very weird and perverse system? Surely anyone who has an ounce of compassion and empathy would have not created the human race in the first place rather then bringing billions of people into existence in the sure and certain knowledge that after their brief spell on Earth they are destined to an eternity of torment.
I mean, would anyone here start a new family with their partner if they 100% knew that any children would be horribly disabled and spend what lives they did have in crippling pain?
