[Serious] What God's justification for eternal torment?
RE: What God's justification for eternal torment?
Quote:Look up the definition - it's no good making up your own. 
The definition i have used is logical and consistent 



Quote: Murder is specifically unlawful killing of another human. 
Murder is the unreasonable and malicious killing of sentient beings 


Quote: God isn't even human (well, apart from Jesus who didn't kill anyone as a human) so it wouldn't apply to him anyway. 
Human or not it's still murder god doesn't get exemptions


Quote: If a policeman kills someone then he is either not guilty and it was lawful or convicted and it was murder.
If a police kills someone without justification and with malicious intent he has committed murder whether he is found guilty or not 


Quote:As for the non-sequitur, It does follow that if God gives life, then God can take it away; that's the privilege of being God.  I would agree in wouldn't necessarily follow for humans. 
No it doesn't simply asserting he can because he's god does not make it not a non sequitur ,And it doesn't matter if it's human or not the same rules apply despite your assertions .



Quote:I won't even speak to the third part - I didn't even express a viewpoint and you're already pre-judging me.
You didn't express an opinion your response alone gave a distinct impression of disapproval . If that bothers you i'm sorry .

Quote:Man had no knowledge of good or evil, So its God's fault for not informing them why they shouldn't eat from the tree.
Actually it is in fact it's fault for making the tree in the first place 

Quote: Oh and by the way God is supposedly the planner of EVERYTHING,

So he planned to have humans fall . Which even more makes it his fault 


Quote: which basically also includes choices and where you will end up, theres even bible quotes to support it. Free will is an illusion.
Which makes it even more his fault 


Quote:God had no requirement to give them any explanation,

And nothing stopped him from doing so and avoiding doing so makes him responsible 


Quote: he can reveal whatever he wishes and keep hidden what he wishes.
Yup and bares all the blame for doing so 


Quote:  They went ahead and disobeyed anyway - not God's fault. 

Yes it is . 


Quote: Sure God knew what would happen, and knew who he was creating, but that doesn't in any way negate our free will.

Yes it does and even if it didn't he still bares all the blame 


Quote:  Are you telling me that God is making you post on this forum?  Or are you choosing to do it yourself?
Irrelevant
