A moral and ethical question for theists

RE: A moral and ethical question for theists

Besides, the point of this thread was to discuss a moral question that's barely been discussed. CL doesn't seem to think that the events of Revelation are a useful account of end times, but also doesn't think that Revelation is a load of bullshit (if you're not reading it to find out about the end of the world, I don't know what the fuck you'd hope to extract from it).


Even if you don't believe Revelation is literally true, it's clearly talking about an end scenario full of death and torture, inflicted by god himself. If you don't really think revelation is even allegorically true and that nobody will be tortured and killed over Jesus coming back, then yes, you think Revelation is crap, and you have a completely non-biblical view of the second coming. That's fine if that's the case, but it clouds the discussion at hand and is an obscure enough theological claim that it doesn't really seem useful for the OP question.
