It feels we are rather pretty much equal. It doesn't seem one religious group has more goodness than another.
Furthermore, we ought to wish well for one another. Furthermore it seems we ought to respect one another.
Yet people of some faiths believe, that, no one but their group will enter paradise.
I don't know how one can believe they ought to respect one another or wish well for one another, when God is going to disregard those people.
Why do they believe God loves them but doesn't love people of other faiths?
Why do they believe God respects them but not people of other faiths?
Why are their sins forgiven, but others' sins punishable?
Welcome to atheism Mystic.
Peace to you too.
