Whoa hey. I'm sure he would have to say here that this title you've given him of 'spiritual leader' (considering he don't believe in the spirit, duh), is nonsense. He wrote books refuting the quid pro quo. He didn't go out and take money under the guise that he is superior in any way be sides knowledge, or has a fast track relation with the spiritual stance on heathenism. He made well earned money writing books and speaking out. Big difference from your "spiritual leaders".
Oh and his alcohol intake hardly makes a single word that he says, less true. Way to make your "judge not lest you be judged" argument. Oh and nice Scottsman fallacy there, of course you're going to pull out the old "you weren't really a true Christian anyways" card. I'm finding it very difficult not to call you an idiot right now.
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.
