Welcome, Dave. Please check out our forum rules before posting anymore posts. We would love to have you in our community long enough to get to know you before you advertise on our forum. Thank you

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.

For those who'd like more information about the book, you can find it at [removed]
Take care, folks
And I suppose this is the last time we'll ever hear from DS, author of a future book, on here?

The Drich is breaking out the droll yiddish english phrases?
I think the universe just went kaput.

Well, unless he's talking about golf or his little two-stroke engine, the word is 'putz'.
Hi to the new guy. Please acquaint yourself with the forum rules and stop spamming your links. I'd hate to see you banned before we get to see what you're made of.
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.'

So what exactly is your guide guiding towards? I take it you're not a secular Jew?
Thanks for asking.
It's a guidebook for teenagers and other young people interested in unbelief. It covers things like what atheism is, how to tell your parents you're an atheist, how to handle challenges and arguments against your unbelief, and so on.

Not a bad idea really.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

Hi, thanks for returning.
Interesting! Is it similar in its scope to Greta Christina's book (do you know that one), or can you highlight what are the differences? Your description maybe sounds as if yours is a bit more for the undecided.
