anyone else here not pro life for the sake of being pro life?

RE: anyone else here not pro life for the sake of being pro life?
I'm pro life with regards to myself. And I'll always fight for life when it comes to others. That said I will admit that euthanasia should be an option for the terminally ill and suffering. I know what its like to suffer in more pain than narcotics can treat without shutting down your lungs. I know what its like not having reprieve from minute to minute suffering and physical agony for years on end. I understand that sometimes life isn't worth living in those cases. That said I lost my grandparents to a double suicide. Well, homicide/suicide but they both wanted it. That decision of theirs tore their family into pieces. Pieces that have never quite healed. I blame part of the worst days if my childhood on their decision and yes I believe they were being selfish as fuck. If you don't want to live because of physical agony I get it. Otherwise you merely rob the world around you of you, and you rob yourself of so many things, it can only be described (poorly) as a tragedy.
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.
