"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke

Aractus why exactly don't you believe the Bible is the unerring word of god? It says it is, after all. And it says to follow it or you will go to hell. From what I have ascertained, these three specific theists I've identified are perfectly justified in their beliefs based on their infallible direct communications with the creator of all the universe *and beyond.
My qualm isn't specifically the things written in the Bible because they sound a lot like they were written by man and as we both know, it was written by men. My own mother believes so, and follows the god of love she believes exists and I certainly don't accuse her of anything. You know why?
Because she doesn't A. Tell me I'm going to Hell, or B. Defend such quackery as being the unerring word of GOD. I'm talking about people who defend moral murder in the name of God and are willing to submit to such a creature their morality and loyalty down to their core beliefs which influence their actions.
Did I specifically name you or something in my post? If not, then don't tell me that I'm telling you what you believe.
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.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

Why do you need proof for this? If you don't read the Bible anyway, then why the fuck do you care, troll fish?

Why do you constantly respond to posts not addressed to you?
Do you have proof of her claim? If not, then you can fuck off because you're full of fluff and zero substance.

Right.....
I see you didn't offer any proof of her claim.
Predictable crybabies, you know what you can do...
