RE: Atheism. The UNscientific belief (part two)

RaphaelDrake, I posted a speedbump aimed at everyone, a page or two before the post you take issue with. That speedbump was directly followed by yours and Homeless Nutters' continued undesirable behaviour. At the time that I posted the second speedbump, it was only you two. Then someone ninja'd a third one in there, and I realize you might not be at fault for having not seen the original (or subsequent second) speedbump, before you posted--but the point remains. You're not in trouble by any means, I just want to nip this uncivility in the butt, and am simply following through with moderation quorum. I apologize if you were offended in any way, I'm just doing my job.
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.

No no, it's:
How much woo could a Hindu do, if a Hindu can do woowoo?
(For those who don't know the term woo, it's defined
here.)
A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.

Little Rik + no one giving attention = no more little Rik.
Yeah, he thrives on that.

Yes there is dumbass. I wouldn't recommend it, but why is it we never decapitate human heads to see if the dead head talks?
A single atom does not constitute an entire in tact live functioning brain. This stupid logic is like treating gas as an in tact car.

The problem with promoting woo on an internet forum is that no one can see the hand-waving.

Or medication. He can use Rik's, seeing as he's not using it.
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.'
