Well I don't know why you'd think I see evil in a content 90 yr old lady who has someone there for her in her last days
I'm not sure what you're saying about the elderly woman though. I've spent last days with elderly too and I can honestly say it was horrifying.
As for forgiveness, I knew god forgave me before I was even born! I knew he 'loved' me no matter what, but I'm an above and beyond kinda girl. I expected more of myself that he did, surely. But that's just who I am, and he says come as you are. So..
I also believed that I was inherently evil by nature, but hey. Comes with the territory.

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.
