Thank you all for the kind welcome---and the cookies.

Welcome Jenny!

I remember looking up in church and thinking, man we are such a bunch of children! Between feeling that and being embarrassed for all the people dancing around like Midianites-- I stuck myself in the nursery so I could actually learn something.
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.

I have lots of shrubberies, but it's the blackberries I want to get rid of.
