(April 2, 2012 at 9:21 am)NoMoreFaith Wrote: How does that make sense in terms of phrases like "gates of hell", "hell fire" quoted in the bible.

It is metaphorical description.

Quote:Secondly, is this concept consistent with the idea that Jesus can be rejected entirely and yet you can love

If you love, you accept Jesus, even if you are not aware of that. So, I believe that atheist won't go to hell... some of them will(as some of declared believers).

Quote:So if we are not slaves, we are free to choose not to believe in something that offers no credible evidence for existence. Yes?
We are free to practice our sexuality as comes naturally. Yes?

Or is "Free Will" about to get tricky on us?

You are free to do everything what you think that is good, but you will take responsibility for that.
