The problem I've had with both my dad and my brother is that without their consent, nothing happens. ER hold if you're lucky. Most suicides are untreated mental health conditions. When the working class citizen can't take a single day off to get the therapy they need, why would they be expected to get better at all? That's why we all self medicate in one form or another; and that's never going to help. Mental healthcare and healthcare in general is fully needed and totally unaccessable here in the US.
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.
