That Day will come as a trap on all the world

[Hezekiah]

I in no way was trying to condemn anyone. I simply stated that no one alive today knows exactly what he'll is like. If you did you'd be dead and in hell. And at that point I don't believe your in a position to send someone a postcard describing your experience.
Also, I've been a practicing Christian since I was 8 (granted I fallen in and out of the faith a few times since then) regardless, I feel confident enough to say I'm well versed in Christian Theology.

I was not referring to you specifically. I have found that most Christians are quite certain of their beliefs and of the basis for those beliefs; I certainly was during the 30+ years I was a Christian. They claim to have a very clear idea of what hell is like, and heaven, and pretty much anything else they subscribe to. There is some logic behind this-- if they're really in touch with god on some level, why wouldn't they know for sure? Jesus promised them the truth, after all.

Sure, when asked to explain these terms and concepts in detail, many of them seem incapable of doing so clearly. And I find that people of the same denomination may have very different ideas of how things work when they explain themselves. Their certainty is as much a flimsy belief as many of their doctrinal ones.

Ah! I see what you mean. Honestly, I'm gonna level with you, my Christianity aside, there some major hurdles of Christian thought that have caused me to walk away. I didn't think a lot of it made sense. I read that God uses the things that are foolish to man's reason and logic, to put to shame the pride or arrogance that is cultivated from that. For me that was my personal turning point back to Christianity. All of that to say, it still doesn't make sense at times and I totally understand. Certain descriptions are hard to imagine. But I'm just one of those guys who can feel comfortable with knowing I might not fully understand it all.

Honestly, you lost me halfway through that.

I'll elucidate the second half. It's one Christian calling out another Christian for being a douchebag.

Sorry, I didn't read all the posts in this thread so I wasn't sure if some sort of reference was being made to something earlier.
