Well I had a Catholic History teacher. She filled us all in on how the 'unholy' Saints were removed from the Saintery. Apparently that's how the Catholic church compromised with the newly defeated acquisitions. They just made the local god a saint and indoctrinated the people into their church so they could still pray to their gods. Win win for all involved! (not really)

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.
