If all you know about someone is what you've heard and all you perceive of them is generated between your ears, the only thing you can follow is your idea of the person.

-and? If everyone deserves to be in jail........then everyone should be in jail, don't you think? Is there some crime that, when it;s committed by a bunch of people, we say "Okay, we're only going to prosecute the first 5 people we collar, the rest are clear"?
When we are sins will be justified unless we have excepted God's forgiveness.

That answers which of the questions you quoted?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

If all you know about someone is what you've heard and all you perceive of them is generated between your ears, the only thing you can follow is your idea of the person. The gospels are an eye witness account of Jesus' life, I know who he is from that.
It answers all of them.

What infinite crimes have you committed that deserve infinite punishment. What have you done that, at a trillion trillion trillion years from now, your suffering will have only just begun unless you use your 'get out of hell free card'?
I'm VERY curious. I'd think a trillion trillion trillion years would suffice for Hitler.

Lying, gossiping, and hating MA, those are his crimes. They're not bad enough for him to be in a county jail - and he isn't interested in accepting responsibility for them after his death either.

I think the question should be what haven't I done.
You are also punishiable for not doing things in life, for example denying God.
