I never let the fact that it's been said already, stop me from saying it though. I'm sure all you guys who were here when I started on this forum had heard it and said it a million times, but for me it was a journey of exploration and a very fun experience! I in kind try to hold up arguments for that reason; because had someone not taken the time to do it for me, I wouldn't' be here. Oh and am I so glad I am..
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.
