Eternal punishment is pointless.

Just because you fail to reach Him doesn't mean He's absent. Study scripture and you just might find out why you are having trouble getting an answer.

. If you understand your beliefs. you should be able to answer some of these questions. Besides, many of us have already read the bible all the way through and that is why we aren't Christians.

Ironically, I have had an online discussion with a couple of Muslims who told me the same thing about their god. I just had to read their holy scripture and believe.



Actually, Christian are supposed to always give a polite answer to questions. 1 Peter 3:15

"But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect,"

I am not certain that dodging the question by telling people to read scripture is what Peter meant. There is nothing wrong with saying, "I just don't know."

Do you actually know what Peter was saying, if so please explain.
I've given my reasons for my belief on this forum many times, answering questions that are a challenge to my beliefs doesn't always require me to state the same thing over and over.

A man without words you are.

What do you mean? Going all Yoda on me now?

Seriously, though, if us being in eternal jeopardy is "no skin off your butt", then what is your motive in continuing to point out how we're all condemned to hell? The message has been received, so there is no need to keep going on about it.

It means that your position doesn't change my eternal destination. As for going to hell, I state what scripture says, if that bothers you you might want to find out why it bothers you.
