How do you guys get so much information in one single haiku? Props!
I think I fail miserably at this exercise, I'm pretty sure that's the point of a haiku no? Me: I'm long-winded
Once upon a time
people didn't believe in god
and the world didn't stop
The sun kept shining
People faced life like they should
the earth kept spinning
We did what we could
We did what was right; we fought
for justice on earth
Not in the next life
but in the one of our birth
tomorrow, today
No blind faith needed
to do what was right, in spite
of what a book says
No fairytale dad
Just us, and no illusion
What beauty could be
Such a world, our life
If everyone could just see
Life's just you, and me

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.

Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.
