What am I up to? Eating (pineapple, onion, and sausage) pizza while reading that quote.
And listening to jazz.

Making chocolate milk, contemplating the meaning of life while I consider taking the internet technicians.
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.

About 2/3 through my paper. Tomorrow's a really long day as well. At least I have work off this week.

Are you reading Gensler's Introduction to Logic?
I'm signed up for a free online course on logic and reasoning that starts on January 13th. It'll be the first time I'm actually taking a class on it and not just reading books about it.
