Why does God hate babies who have not sinned?

RE: Why does God hate babies who have not sinned?
Darkstar Wrote:Typical conversion story: I did drugs, was a drunk, and was addicted to video games; therefore all material things are evil because in my personal experience I let them take precedence over family. (Not that family matters; one of them will make a mistake someday! Just you wait, they'll let you down and make you regret ever loving them!)

The truth of scripture has never been disproved, all you want to do is focus on the history of scripture and they were never written for a historical account, they are a spiritual guide to a life that is better than anything you can imagine.

Okay, I admit I can be a little overly sarcastic at times (no one is perfect), but I only did it because I was irked over the fact that Reasonable_Jeff classified people the same as using drugs and alcohol to find fulfillment. Conversion stories from atheism to theism are pretty predictable. They will go something like this:

1. They were never anything close to atheist and are just saying so to add weight to their argument.
2. They were never really atheist, they only thought they were.
3. They focused only on materialistic things, but weren't satisfied. (Reasonable_Jeff seems to fall into this category, but he dismisses actual people as well, so...)
4. They were hopelessly immoral without fear of hell.
5. They had a warm, fuzzy feeling/witnessed an unlikely event in their favor.
6. They are convinced of god via a logical fallacy that they never relaize is a fallacy, and are willing to defend to the death because they want to believe.

If I offended you Jeff, I apologize, especially considering that you are usually one of the more reasonable (no pun intended) theists areound here. However, I still think that it is sad (read: sad emotion, not as in pathetic) that you think of your friends and family as just more unfulfilling things in your life. I suppose that regardless of apparent reasonableness non-casual believers still hold some of the fanatical beliefs of fundamentalists. (Keep in mind you said you would gladly die for god, and that is what the terrorists who caused 9/11 thought they were doing).

As for Godschild, even though my comment wasn't formal, my reasoning still stands. Yours, however, does not. If the bible were nothing more than a spiritual guide, it would not have been written as a historical account; it would have been solid psalms and parables.
