Poor Fundies.....Hell is A Literary Construct, Too!

RE: Poor Fundies.....Hell is A Literary Construct, Too!
Aw that's quite a shame, on their part Raven. You seem like a good person, I'd be distraught if I disowned my own family for their beliefs/nonbeliefs.
And no, I know quite well what you were sayingWink

As for saving us all.. imagine that he's a dude in a boat, and we're all out in open ocean swimming for our lives. Then he's like, "Believe the boat can save you or you'll die!"

Not. Helpful.
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!

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

Dead wrong.  The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.

Quote:Some people deserve hell.

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.
