Think about it, if God gave people free will to choice, I should and do fully endorse the exercise thereof. After all, God made the Garden-of-Eden very good, and then He may it even better by introducing ‘free-will’, so far be it from me, to interfere with that. Hell is a Christianity doctrinal subject and should be ripe for discussion without it being construed as being ‘threatening’.
You "You watch out, Superman will beat you up when he get's here".
Been there done that. The threats you make about what will happen to us is no different or hollow a threat than when Muslims do it. You could threaten us with Mickey Mouse and it means the same thing to us.
Why should we feel or be threatened by what amounts to basically you protecting a fantasy with your own ego?
Here’s a suggestion: get on your hands and knees, thrust your legs backward into the plank position, hold for a minute and while doing so, tell yourself you are strong and won’t be fearful of what is message board posted…after that, you should feel empowered.
Bible says the earth was created in 6 days. I don't care if you claim to be a old earth believer. That does not square with what the bible says. You are cherry picking the bible.
And no, I don't feel threatened by fictional beings but that book does contain language in it that condemns people and people do read those words and act on them. No different than if someone read Harry Potter and decided to murder someone over that. Holy books are used as weapons, and the worst part is that humans are willing to murder over these antiquated myths.
