I went through an angry stage. I was pissed to find out the very thing that I thought was saving the world, was ruining the world and not taking responsibility for the aftermath. I think if I had to pinpoint where my anger lie, it was with the irresponsibleness of people. I felt burdened for awhile knowing that ignorance reigns supreme and I'm quite possibly the least effective person on this planet.
Here's the thing though. I decided to accept my world for the way it is and move forward in bettering it. One piece of trash at a time, one load of dishes saved at a time, and I now focus on being the best person I can be--for me.
That, that's priceless.

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.
