So you worship this god that you believe in even when you disagree with it?

Yes.
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.

Yes.

Well, suit yourself then. I'll just be over here worshiping someone else who thinks you should burn. It's not like I agree with them, so I'm not doing anything wrong.

There is a banned book (I believe it's the Apocalypse of Peter) where it states that the citizens in Heaven would have such a compassion for those dwelling Hell that God would relent and ultimately grant universal salvation. That's what I believe in, I don't view Hell as being eternal, just a step in the path of life.

Oh, I will feel very compassionate for you while you are burning. I'll still worship the person who is burning you, though. Maybe they'll stop if I love enough. They're nice like that.

It would be my own actions that would have caused my suffering. That's the problem with your view is you try to make humanity as like a child when we should be responsible for our own actions.

Yes, it was your own actions that caused the person I worship to burn you. You could have avoided it if you just obeyed them. It's not like I'm the one judging you, so why are you mad at me?

"My view" is a satirical reflection of your views. All I did was replace "God" with another hypothetical individual and parroted your arguments back at you. I never said anything about humanity being "a child". That was your own addition. If you got upset at what I said, then maybe this is a time to reflect. At the very least you could try to understand why this upsets others.

Actually you did not. You are being false. If you were parroting my own views, you would be challenging your deity on having sinners sent to Hell.

Oh, so you challenge your deity's views about that?

I have twice stated on this thread about that...
