My mum told my friend (we were four at the time) not to touch the curling iron or she would be burnt. She stared at my mom while her hand dashed for the iron and fist held that sucker till her hand was W.o.W burned. Everyone was shocked.
When I see a baby on the bed crawling around and I say don't go too far -- I always have my hand around their ankles just in case because they don't know that they could go headfirst over the edge and break their neck.
Where in the Genesis does it show you that Adam and Eve knew consequence of action/disobeying authority?
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.
