I was wondering about religion in America
#11
RE: I was wondering about religion in America
Nahhh he's right. If I wanted to have a better time with life I would wear a cross. You're automatically trusted, and accepted. No matter where you are. Some peoples conversations in the workplace (certain professions like in hospitals especially) are constantly talking about their faith and whatnot (essspecially catholics). Any dogmatic christian looks at life through a god looking glass, it's just natural for them to talk about their lives from the perspective that they see. The difference between themselves and myself, is that I don't feel the necessity to push my worldview on them, whereas they make comments attributing power to god and then give me a look to see if I'll agree.
Everyone knows that not everyone here is a Christian, so when I'm forced into a conversation referring to god's great plan! or whatever.. I just try to talk about reality with them--things about what they said that we can both agree on existing. I won't hide if confronted and I wont lie about what I think, and if someone's factually incorrect then I will tell them so. I don't just tell them god is great but I also don't go telling them god doesn't exist.
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.
