When I was a child, I was stricken with an illness that almost killed me. I saw science stretch to save me, not God. Because he does not exist.
I was an atheist once I reached middle school.

Welcome Miss Lady Katherine
I was sick all my life--it took 19 yrs for my body to completely fail on me. My dad believed in little to no medical intervention based on religious beliefs so life for me was a little tough growing up. You're right, science saves. It saved me, and I never saw a hint of god.
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.
