"Free will" = Coercion
To have free will is to be coerced into doing things? What the?

Well you see Pizza, it's COMPLICATED. God is Good so everything that is not God is not good, and therefore, by the Principle of the Middle School Girl, God cannot associate with his less than good creation, which is hell for them. However, if the creation WANTS to be good by being like God---which means doing everything he determines at his leisure, due to his nature of being good and determining good things because anything determined by him is good, then by the Law of the Magical Virgin's Blood he can forget that you're not as good as him.
He who loves God cannot endeavour that God should love him in return - Baruch Spinoza

RE: "Free will" = Coercion
See, I've got a backbone the size of Mount Everest so I'd still tell that idiot God to stuff it, even if I thought he was real and he's gonna punish me. Because I don't trust him for shit, and he'll just do it anyway if he wants. Maybe he'll respect me standing up to him, being the first person ever who believed in him and has done so.

Actually I'm a cowardly little twat, but it's the thought that counts.
