What do you think?You see, the slimy apologists figured it out. Rather than trying to make excuses for their god, they simply claim that you haven't looked hard enough for him.
Lesson: Sheep should be shorn and eventually eaten. They should not be listened to.
Not just apologists.. You know that when I was on deaths' door with an illness time and time again, I was actually counseled by christian ministers, and my own family, that I should stop taking the doctor's medicine as it could be interfering with god healing me? That if I don't have faith in HIM to heal me and let him heal me, then how will I get healed? So when I did everything they advised (mostly I was just sick of being over-medicated so I told the doctors to shove it for a couple months), I begged for my life and everything to god, I was told to have the faith of a child so I had the faith of a child--Then when it was decidedly confirmed through an ICU visit that I was indeed not healed: they told me that my "Father" knows best and that my illness probably saved me from some worse r fate. My brother said and I quote, "it probably saved you from being a puke slathered corpse on the side of the highway" end quote. I was in school for premed when I got sick, and yeah I drank on the weekends. Whatevs.
Said god is no father of mine, I've concluded--if he even existed.
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!
Dead wrong. The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.
I say again: No exceptions. Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it. As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.
