I hate to break it to you, but there are already a lot of people who are only in church because of fear. That's the whole point of hell! That's why religious people try to convert others when they're on death row, or on their death beds. If he wanted to make sure the only people in heaven were those who loved him, he wouldn't make the only alternative torture or complete destruction.
He doesn't want a personal relationship anyway. If he did, there wouldn't be any question about whether he existed. If he existed, he knows exactly what he needs to do to make people like me believe. I make no secret about it. If he was real, I'd love for him to come down and talk, and boy do we need a talk about all the horrible things they claim he's responsible for in the bible. I know I can be self centered, but I have never killed or tortured anyone for not making their lives revolve around me.
