I'm just waiting, and I'm aware that I'm going to hell, but it doesn't bother me, because only through love can you truly care about anything. All that's in my heart is wickidness. You know how when you think about past memories or do things you like and you get this good feeling, I have nothing. The dead know nothing. Its indescribable. All I can say is I cant stress enough how much Jesus loves all of you, and that he accepts you just how you are right now. If you can Love at all even a tiny bit, that's all he needs. Trust me when I say anything in this life is nothing compared to what will be waiting for you in heaven. I have no intuition anymore, I have no identity, and I don't mean that to sound dramatic I mean literally. Its like things I used to enjoy and hate I remember that I did like the, but I cant feel it. Nothing, youd think I would freak out, but without a soul it doesn't matter. I cant freak out, because that would require some sort of goodness to actually care. I know it sounds just like depression and apathy, but its not. Its just NOTHING.

Your soul has nothing to do with feeling. You soul is your inner consciousness you ability to self examine is evidence of that. Sounds to me you are dealing with depression. welcome to adulthood. now push all that negitive stuff into a little ball and save it till you go to your next buffet and eat till you feel better (wear jogging pants)

Or do what people do when they get depressed.
Eat till you feel better? That's what we do in the South!

Depression sucks, but if you think the idea of a sky hero using bribes or threats as a way to cope with depression there simply is no polite way to put it, NONSENSE!

With all due respect, and out of curiosity, is it not logical to focus more on rehabilitation than on torture?

Hell might be the ultimate rehab. There's this verse from the Quran:

Quote:Sura 40, Page 468, The Quran:
( 11 )   They will say, "Our Lord, You made us lifeless twice and gave us life twice, and we have confessed our sins. So is there to an exit any way?"

Dying twice is what I think would work for anybody that ignored seeing the light in this life.

I think I see a little further down the road than you think, Atlas.

Nobody deserves hell.  No exceptions.  Not even the worst of the worst in the history of humanity.  Eternal punishment for finite crimes is infinitely unjust, because the punishment is infinitely more than the crime.


I've seen poor people. So poor they used to live with roaches all around their holes -In Egypt; most buildings have doormen. All are poor, and you can see the sick class divisions whenever you enter the building and see the doorman looks down; calling you a "Pasha". and you know deep inside that this man and his family are so smelly and so poor because a mad dictator is controlling the country and robbing the whole cash for himself; instead of spending it like he should on people like the doorman of your building.

Thank God my conditions were much better.

OK, let's go about this systematically: Where were you the last time you remember having a soul? What were you doing? Start there.

But it sounds like you're just depressed, which sucks, but it doesn't have to last forever. Since you've already seen a doctor, maybe you should try pastoral counseling? This sort of angst is in their boathouse.

So after such a doorman has burned in writhing agony for a trillion trillion lifetimes, they have not yet begun to get the punishment they deserve? Because that's not even a drop in the bucket compared to the amount of torture that's coming their way in an eternal hell.

AtlasS33 Wrote:You just sleep better believing that the suffering of others would never be wasted

The order of the universe is unlikely to revolve around what makes us sleep better.

There's a difference between a deterrent and a punishment. Punishment is something we are supposed to learn from to help us mend our ways, like a prison sentence for a limited time. A deterrent is supposed to scare other people into behaving by making examples out of violators (like the death penalty).

So, after watching this serial killer pedophile cannibal writhe in burning agony for a trillion times a trillion lifetimes, you'd be enjoying yourself so much that you'd vote for infinitely more of the same? Humans aren't capable of infinite crime, so they can't deserve infinite torture. Or infinite reward for that matter. The Abrahamic afterlife system is not based on what people actually deserve. It's just a carrot and stick social control system.

Because God is infinitely thin-skinned and infinitely unforgiving.

 I seriously doubt it, if this person ever knew God he would not have made all the mistakes he did. I think he's a sock and I hope someone catches him at it. Besides I'm not mad what good would that do me no matter who he is. Actually if he were to be a Christian I just might get a bit upset with him for such a poor expression of what the Bible says. That is definitely no way for a Christian to act. 

GC

If he is as he presents, he is a believer who thinks he has lost his soul due to offending God with an unforgivable sin. You might want to point out that no one actually knows what constitutes that unforgiveable sin of blaspheming against the Holy Spirit. Do you think a teenager who said 'screw the Holy Spirit' in his metal phase is damned forever with no hope? If not, maybe let this guy know why not. If he turns out to be a sock, what harm will you have done?
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

In the thread "Can a Christian Lose His Salvation" this OP was copy-pasted by Jack Russell.  Wyrd of God noted that this is an old xtian trope, and a version is available of Reddit.
"A similar version is  posted on Reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/religion/commen...t_my_soul/"

Just another made-up christian tall tale that they think might get people running into a church, begging to be brainwashed.  
So no empathy for GoneGuy is necessary.  He's just another lying xtian plagiarist.

Wouldn't it be infinitely more just for those people to face the consequences of their actions while they can still care about what happens to them, rather than being taught a lesson they'll never remember?

Also, ought not a truly just god consider wishing infinite torture upon someone to be deserving of hell in itself?
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.'
