Looking out for and caring for your fellow man is all that matters in this one-and-only life we'll ever get.

Quote:God isn't looking to bring the hammer down on you. He doesn't want to grind you into dust. He wants reconciliation and relationship.Why the fuck would I EVER want a relationship with a cosmic cunt who can and will send me to an eternal realm of torture? He'll get neither from me the divine tosser as he is so he may as well "bring the hammer" down, prolonging judgement is merely another indication he's an arse who likes to store up wrath against the vessels of his temper.
Quote:No matter how good you think you've been, you can't face God on your own merits, because you cannot earn salvation. The penalty for sin is death and we're all guilty. God is a just judge and won't fail to punish sin.Wow, your god is a dick of a Mafia boss isn't he?
