Feedback's always appreciated, of course.
Errr.... who were you talking to in that last sentence?
Why do you guys refer to each other as "my opponent"?
How else are you supposed to speak to or about a person who PMs you to tell you you're a "dead man walking"?
I agree though, taking up his majesty's challenge was more kindness on Esquilaxs part than a debate.
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.
