Wow - this came out of nowhere.
OK - lets think a little:
Christianity tells us God is perfect and we are not. He made us that way (why?). In order to fix the thing that he made (deliberately) imperfect he sends his Son (who is him) to earth to enlist followers and then die as a sacrifice (human sacrifice - peachy!) to himself to pay for the sins of the imperfect creature he deliberately created in the first place.
Now in order to be saved (from being what he made us to be) we have to worship Jesus, or God through Jesus (who is God anyway). We must love Jesus (commanded to love - can you do that?). We must Love God (yeah - the guy that put all the above shit together). We must worship God - not through fear of eternal damnation in Hell, but because we love the old rascal with his peculiar games.
If we do all of this we get to spend eternity with God.
That's a reward? You'd want to spend eternity with this nut?
Consider that fully 1/3rd of all the Angels (who knew God personally) CHOSE to leave him after the fall of Satan.
Ask yourself why a perfect, loving, all knowing, all powerful entity like God needs to wield a big stick (Hell) to get us to follow him. Why would so many angels leave him when they knew him?
Ask yourself if any of this makes any sense.
If you think it doesn't then it might be worth looking at alternative explanations for us, the world and the universe.
Do that enquiry safe in the knowledge that there is no God, and therefore there is no Hell and therefore there is nothing to be scared of.
Or - crawl back into your cocoon of fooling yourself till the day you die safe in the knowledge you won't be going to Hell (or heaven as we both know).
Kuusi palaa, ja on viimeinen kerta kun annan vaimoni laittaa jouluvalot!
