I agree with you about this, however God did not create a system and God does not punish people for finite crimes, thought or otherwise. Just exactly what kind of thought crimes are you referring to?
God punishes people for unforgiven sin against Him, He is eternal and thus the sin is eternal unless forgiven.
SM Wrote:Here's a couple of questions for you GC:
1. How could you personally consider it Heaven, knowing that billions of your fellow humans are being tortured for eternity for a finite crime?
First of all as I said above the sin is eternal, second they are not tortured, third it will be each persons choice as where they will spend eternity. I can only choose for me, and with those in hell eternally separated from God then they will be separated from those in heaven, we'll know nothing about them and why should we they made their choice for themselves.
SM Wrote:2. Do YOU think that people deserve eternal punishment for a finite crime?
No I do not, I have already explained that sin is against the eternal God so there is no finite to it, it's eternal.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
