If the christian religion is true, there would be many innocent, upstanding and ethical people in hell. Whilst all the vile immoral pigs gloat about how right they are.
I'd rather go to hell and share the pain and suffering with fellow atheists and such than to be with vile pigs while watching good people suffer for a finite victemless crime.
I have yet to witness a religious wacko say something smart and reasonable about the beliefs they hold.
Why can't god allow a third option for those who want nothing to do with him, afterlife...the whole religious thing? We come into existance without asking for it, surely it's not asking to much to go back into non-existance once our time is up? Opt out for any afterlife sort of thing? Why not?
Like voting, you can vote either way or you can choose not to vote at all. I'd like to see a theist here to explain why god doesn't allow a third option?
Obviously there already is a third option - Atheism.
Sorry Ace He gave no third option it's just the two and it's your choice. Being an atheist at judgement is no different than being a unrepentant sinner.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
