If you believe in the God of the Bible, why try to prove it logically?
RE: If you believe in the God of the Bible, why try to prove it logically?
Hey I was beginning to like Missy C, I made it my nickname on a theist forum!Tongue

Im going to stop the analogy right here because at this point I'd have to take on the attributes of god and even I am not that self involved. Lets look at god and his dog. God made the dog with teeth then put it down for biting. Perhaps the dog itself had been tortured by little kids as a puppy or has a mental defect that makes it irrationally lash out or maybe the dog read the gods highly interpretive word and concluded that that little girl needed to die. Maybe the dog is just an asshole and wanted to kill a little girl, I dunno. God let an innocent little girl suffer at the hands of an animal that he knew ahead of time was going to kill, and with his all magnificent power, failed to protect the little girl and failed the dog whom he made and knew what it would do. I would not be angry at anyone but god for the dog being put down, then I'd consider it sadistic to punish the dog in the afterlife.
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.
