No, we're sentenced for not being gullible and for not being sycophants to your abusive god.
At the end of the day, that's all that matters. Those who are gullible, who believed what they were told and lucky enough to have been indoctrinated into the correct religion are "saved". Those who are not gullible enough are "damned".
Quote:I, personally, believe a creator has the right to do with his creation as he wishes.
Another great gem.
Parents do not have the right to do with their children as they will. If we ever create AI that thinks and feels, we will not have the right to do with it as we will.
But to you, we're just toys in Yahweh's sandbox. You've already said he decides what is or isn't moral (which, as already discussed, makes your morality neither objective nor absolute) and now you've elaborated as to why.
You're take on Christianity is morally bankrupt, your philosophy is childish (still stuck in the pre-conventional stage of Kohlberg's classification of the development of moral reasoning) and your god has all the moral authority of a spoiled two-year old.
