LOLOL.

There are times I think that Drippy stands by just awaiting the opportunity to say something stupid.

A 1000 mile journey begins with the first step. This is my first adventure with the new guy, I need to know how bendy he is on what he thinks he knows..

So we begin with a very simple observation.

Nothing like starting your journey with an open mind, eh Drich?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Quote:For me it stands to reason if God does not act according to how you think He should act, then perhaps you do not understand the nature of God.
Quote:so you beleive i am misunderstanding this? seeing as you have come to this reason please clarify?

If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!

Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.

Dead wrong.  The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.

Quote:Some people deserve hell.

I say again:  No exceptions.  Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it.  As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.

The conclusion has already been reached about you.

You know, I like learning about continuity errors in movies as much as the next person. And an occasional blooper reel is all to the good. However, there are some people who don't just share such gems in a friendly spirit, but take great pains to point them out to you whenever you express admiration for a particular cinematic work. And then there are those who, if you were unfortunate enough to invite them to accompany you to the latest blockbuster, spend the entire two hours pointing out continuity errors and unbelievable parts while you're watching the movie. Needless to say, any of you who might fall into the latter category are unlikely to be invited to accompany me to the Hindu festival of colors in March. That's all I'm saying.

Question...

Why is there a story and why didn't God make me a fluffy nice reality instead of this one?

Answer...

Then there wouldn't be a story nor a need for a story in the 1st place.

To everyone who doubted my method of providing a simple observation first: I have been doing this long enough to know that not everyone who asks a question wants an answer. some just want a foolish arguement, and as Missy was so good to point out 'we' are "not to answer a fool according to his folly." Which is why i lead with the introspective statement. If Justin was not willing to question what he thought he knew about God, then it becomes easy to determine whether or not he truly wanted an answer to his question. The way he worded his response is just a confirmation.

Oh my goodness drich you're so wise! Wow your understanding is so vast and knowledgeable. your vast knowledge that your impressive experience, that you grace us with oh humble one , has granted you the insight on my true intention to argue not for a better understanding of these holy passages and why these things are what they are claimed to be when they stand on poor stories from the stone age. No i am to cause mischief because i already understand these why people believe in the passages and hope that someone will not blind my insight with their infallible phrases to test one true intentions! How genius!.........or i could really be interested if anyone has any answer to this understanding in hope that people will clarify or give me a deep insight that may give me a understanding beyond the obvious....that people believe a bible based on nonsense and if people disagree they are "fools". right.........there you go again ignoring that ability to reason
