Why would I live my life wanting to be punished for eternity?

We've had this discussion before. Hell is a punishment from the persepective of those who want Heaven. For those who dont (Lucifer and 1/3 the former population of Heaven) Hell is a viable alternitive.

You may agree. I don't, so who am I to say you are wrong? Why would I lament over your choices? Why would I want to see God drag into Heaven kicking screaming and force you to become His slave?

I was talking about end times and how such a concept isn't in the hands of God. It's perfectly on topic.

Don't confuse it with you not being able to produce the high caliber mental gymnastics required to respond.

Must.... resist...

But yeah, that title was a letdown. Tongue
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

You know, it's actually kind of sad knowing that every single minute I've dedicated to writing responses has been in vain. Go be intellectually dishonest somewhere else...
