Human Mess

RE: Human Mess
America the Brave still fears what we don't know.
Christian, Stimbo asked you to be more specific. So be more specific or I and others will have to guess and refer to the most recent 'loss' in Christian agenda with regards to morality and that would be with regards to equal rights. Which is ridiculous.
Are you aware that I as an atheist am concerned about people like the 'kill the gays bill' guy getting into office? Or a moralist with no morals like Drich who can honestly say he'd kill based on whether its moral (morality being dictated by a book and by god in that very Very flawed book)? I'm not afraid for the world when people gain rights, I'm afraid when they lose them.
I used to be like you. I used to fear that one day the time for retribution will come! and all the nonbelievers would be screwed. I appreciate your concern, I really do. But its like if I were concerned about the safety of your car based on my understanding that brakes can break and you smile because you know its not going to happen.
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.
