A small thanks to the resident Theists..

Why don't they pray: "Please god, show yourself, so I don't keep making a fool of myself!"
Probably because for some of them, if they suddenly stopped being idiotic, obnoxious and egocentric, they wouldn't have any character traits at all.
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.'

Cuntfish,
I've already given you proof that the bible says eternal when referring to hell. If everyone in your religion but you believes in it, that's not my fault. To quote your own brethren, Christian Apologetics and Research Ministry Wrote:"Thus says the Lord" occurs over 400 times in the Old Testament. Shoo fly, don't bother me
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.

First "aeonian" does NOT mean eternal, "aidios" DOES. But anyways, your statement is incorrect, you should have also mentioned how you were wrong about "aeonian" being used to describe God as your whole premise pivotted on the assumption that aeonian was used to describe both God and Hades, remember? Besides that, only the translations say "eternal" The original Greek has aeonian AND aidios. You just can't get this FACT into your head, huh? You made 2 claims that I challenged. 1. You claimed that the Bible says it is unerring. 2. You also claimed that "it says to follow it or you will go to hell". These two are what you are responsible for, not your "eternal" strawman. I like your attempt to support the unerring claim, but you must present the case unless you can get the guys from CARM to post here. As for your "brethren" remark, I already know you're biggotted, there is no need to keep reminding me. My question for you is: If you're not a Christian (I.E. a believer), why do you still believe the lie? Why support it with the fury and indignation of someone who despises the notion that they may be wrong about what's actually written? I'll give you some counter-eveidence since you at least made a small attempt at supporting your bare assertions. Against unerring scripture: 1.Proverbs 14:15 The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going. (the one above is just to, well, to make you look simple in supporting the whole unerring thingy) Against following the Bible ("it says to follow it or you will go to hell"): First I would need to know if you consider the Bible "Law" or not?
