Eternal punishment is pointless.

[Chad32]

Like I said you need to study the scriptures and you would find out how far off you are from the truth.
God did create hell, first for Satan and the fallen angels, then when man (Adam) sinned, man with unforgiven sin will join them in the eternal punishment. The way of man seems right unto man, and the way of God seems wrong. There is a flaw in that kind of thinking, man has a fallible mind and God is omniscient.
Have you asked God to forgive you through Jesus Christ, no, then you really do not desire the forgiveness. When one understands the terribleness of sin against God one desires forgiveness of that sin and in honor of God's forgiveness one desires to worship Him, salvation is the beginning of a relationship. A truly loving God doesn't let people off the hook, He helps them to realize the consequences of their wrong actions, if they will listen.

The way of god doesn't SEEM wrong to us. It's empirically proven wrong. Slavery is wrong. Genocide is wrong. Blind, unquestioning obedience to authority is wrong.

The "terrible sin" you're talking about was us using free will. the whole point of freedom is the ability to do things other people don't like. Doing it without consequence, as long as they aren't hurting other people, is the definition of freedom. Freedom of speech is my freedom to say thing you don't like, meaning you don't get to kill me for heresy just because I don't buy into your beliefs.

Obviously your god never wanted us to disobey him. If so, he should have made us robots. Then we wouldn't have "sinned". If he wanted us to have free will, he should allow us to use it. If he thinks socity is going downhill because of it, the right thing to do is work out the problems to make society better. Not start killing people en masse.

Man has a fallible mind. We have no reason to believe that Yahweh's mind is infallible.
