My Five Wills/Code of Ethics
#23
RE: My Five Wills/Code of Ethics
Potential cannot be measured unless you are omniscient. Prior acts mean nothing when future acts can be anything; one person can change the entire world, you mention Abraham Lincoln. If as a young tree chopper you decided not to save him from a threat of death because you measured your worth higher than his: and you do nothing with your life, imagine what the world had just lost. I suggest merely that our default position for the betterment of our species and that of society, should be to give the other the fighting chance because the repurcussions of not doing that are far greater. The moral implications of having a future society that measures peoples worth and engages in self preservation tactics, will lead to a possible end to our entire species. We are all pieces of a whole, and if we don't connect then eventually that whole will crumble.
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.
