Really pretty fucking ridiculous when you think about it.
Indeed it is.. However others think our condemnation resides in our own ablity to not sin, that we somehow are condemned by, and held accountable to our own actions.

Honestly i don't think they care.
Sometimes 'we' are asked questions just to see if we can answer them.

It seems very contradictory to then say, but we still can feel good enough about ourselves and not exaggerate beyond that.
Our eternal seperation has absolutly nothing to do with how one views himself.
We have an impossiable standard to meet. If the standard was designed to be unattainable then only a fool measures his self worth by it. It is unattainable for a reason. The reason is so that all are forced to decide whether or not he wants to spend an eternity with God.
Whether you pick yes or no, has nothing to do with self worth. It is a desision we all must make. No need to cry over it, just choose.
