Never compromise! / Christian persecution!

[Rampant.A.I.]

Buddy, you worship a being that you think is going to send us to hell for not believing in him. Evidently, you think that this action is fair and just, as I've seen you argue before that god's actions are always just.

You clearly weren't paying attention when you read my post: if you actually think that it's fair for me to be tortured forever for not believing exactly the same thing that you do, then yes, you are being hateful. That is a hateful position to accept. The fact that you seem to not feel that hate to the point that you're confused as to why we'd think that tells me that you are probably just doing what I expect most other sane christians do too: you aren't thinking through the consequences of the beliefs your religion requires you to accept.

Because if you had, you'd understand why, from the outside, those are hateful beliefs.

Firstly, I'm not sure that hell is eternal, but whether it is or isn't, I don't hate people who I think might be going there. You're saying things about people that you don't know are true. I might know more about that than you do. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I probably spend more time with fundamentalist christians than you.

Matthew 25:46
"Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life."

2 Thessalonians 1:9
They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the majesty of his power.

Jude 1:7
In a similar way, Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns gave themselves up to sexual immorality and perversion. They serve as an example of those who suffer the punishment of eternal fire.

Matthew 25:41
"Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.'"

Mark 9:43 - 9:48
43 And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:

44 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

45 And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:

46 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

47 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire:

48 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

Revelation 20:10
And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet [are], and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
