Gil, every time I see the gifs in your sig it leads to at least ten minutes of listening to the Attack on Titan theme. Tongue

What if you're hypnotizing me? Wink

When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

I expect more from a religion purportedly inspired by the almighty creator than "what ifs."
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

It is undemocratic, unreasonable and appealing to nothing but emotion.

As such I reject it.

Ps. It is not an interesting thought. It is something I read about countless times and I believe my statement here is almoust the exact copy of what I read in a book by Christopher Hitchen from a part in which he takes on this (very old) protestant notion.

Do you have any links to this "exact copy" that you've seen so many times?

uploading the contents of a book on the internet without the approval of the publisher would be a violation of copyright and a punishable offense.

You will have to buy and read it yourself:

I wont borrow you my copy for lack of motivation to send a package over the Atlantic and for lack of motivation to pay the shipping costs

You'd think that A/S/K would be capable of more...

Every Soul on this planet elected to be here. what if we begged and pleaded to be here for this chance to prove ourselves. or rather to re prove ourselves as loyal to God?

When Lucifer fell from Heaven he did not goto Hell. He fell on Earth, and 1/3 of heaven's population fell with him. Traditional dogma identifies these fallen "angels" as Demons.

My question is what if 'we' are those fallen? In that We have been falling from heaven in every generation since Adam? What if we Begged to have our minds wiped and placed on trial here for a 'life time' to prove that we/our hearts are worthy and will choose God if given the chance?!? That we would turn and rebuke the deceptive teachings of lucifer who tricked us into following him in heaven orginally? Maybe that is why so many bad things happen here, because we live/Are a brood of Demons, who have been given one last chance to seek salvation/forgiveness of our sins... Someone of us really want that forgiveness while others want to create a hell on earth! To live in a world without God.

That is a spooky thought, but I guess it really does not change anything, other than answer the question why or how God can justify an eternity in hell for one life time of sins.. Answer: our sins are not limited to one life time.

Oh, you mean Mormon doctrine?

I don't know about Mormon doctrine; this stuff sounds a lot like Scientology to me.
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.'
