I'm aware of your disgusting beliefs GC. Thing is, I don't care how super duper powerful you think your god is, and what rights you think that entails. I don't need to leave the earth to see powerful rulers abusing their subjects - and I already think it's deplorable. An even more powerful ruler abusing it's subjects from "on high" via magic doesn't impress me in the least, and I'm not interested in stringing up "the better man" for my own failures - or because some despot doesn't like something I've done.
Christianity has nothing to offer me, or any other decent human being.
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!

Faith. I see you tolerate your own actions.
Rhythm. You count yourself as a decent human being now?
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.

-as I count you a decent human being Polaris - as I count the vast majority of human beings alive as decent people.
I can see people that way because I'm not a moral and ethical cripple, hobbled by a long list of things god finds icky which I must endorse if I want desert after dinner.
Would either of you like to endorse punishments that severe, do either of you feel that our courts should be handing them out? Because that's all that matters, once we're done flogging our religious peens, ala GC..or shooting the messenger, ala yourself. I think..that you both know that it's wrong.

If I acted exactly like most descriptions of god, I would be in prison. IE: Not a decent person.
I imagine most religious short busers would say their child deserved it.
God does not exist. Thankfully this is nothing more than conjecture. And I haven't any children for god to torture.
I reject your reality and substitute my own!

God is meant to be the standard of good, yet does the most evil thing anyone could ever do:
Eternal torture for finite perceived crimes which can include just thinking about something that Jesus doesn't want you to.
I'd love to hear anyone come up with something more evil than that. Seriously, have at it Christians. Yes, I know some of you don't believe in this, but whether or not you believe in it doesn't change whether it's true. A lot of Christians think this way, so you'd be defending them if you can come up with something more evil for me.

Yeah, and he knows which ones it will be as soon as they are born. We're stitched right up.
I can think of only one thing more evil than what God does. One single thing. That's not good, right? Come on Christians, defend your God! He's quite clearly not interested in defending himself from weak-ass atheist slander.

"God smashed in the child's head with a breeze block, and he saw that is was good. Everyone agreed it was good. Because God is good."

Tertullian laid it out:
Quote:At that greatest of all spectacles, that last and eternal judgment how shall I admire, how laugh, how rejoice, how exult, when I behold so many proud monarchs groaning in the lowest abyss of darkness; so many magistrates liquefying in fiercer flames than they ever kindled against the Christians; so many sages philosophers blushing in red-hot fires with their deluded pupils; so many tragedians more tuneful in the expression of their own sufferings; so many dancers tripping more nimbly from anguish then ever before from applause."
“What a spectacle. . .when the world. . .and its many products, shall be consumed in one great flame! How vast a spectacle then bursts upon the eye! What there excites my admiration? What my derision? Which sight gives me joy? As I see. . .illustrious monarchs. . . groaning in the lowest darkness, Philosophers. . .as fire consumes them! Poets trembling before the judgment-seat of. . .Christ! I shall hear the tragedians, louder-voiced in their own calamity; view play-actors. . .in the dissolving flame; behold wrestlers, not in their gymnasia, but tossing in the fiery billows. . .What inquisitor or priest in his munificence will bestow on you the favor of seeing and exulting in such things as these? Yet even now we in a measure have them by faith in the picturings of imagination.
A nice little bit of psychopathy with which one might leaven one's faith ... or lose it.
