• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Alright. This keeps going in a circle. You still seem to think I can force myself to believe something, no one can reread my post. How is some one a immoral or unethical person just because they dont believe that theirs a magic man in the sky, a god?
Answer: They are not immoral. God is not concerned with belief. God is concerned about compassion toward your fellow man. The way you treat yourself and others is what matters to God.
What you ignored was the fact that the teacher had full control over what the students would do, but she chose not too or intentionaly made them that way, and still punishes them when its her fault. If she wanted her students to be perfect robot slaves she could have made them that way. Instead she made them animals.
God does not predetermine anything. He does not know or decide your actions in advance.
I have done nothing to deserve infinite punishment and neither has any one else. Only an infinite sin could be punished infinitely.
Precisely. No finite crime deserves unending punishement. Infinite torture is pointless and evil. God is neither of those things.
You say it yourself that its unfair , but the bible says god is perfectly fair , so what your saying contradicts the bible.
Yup.

Jesus loves me yes I know for the bible tells me so? Lol Okay but how do I know the bible is true what evidence is their to back it up?He is showing you grace and mercy giving you the chance to accept him,dieing on the cross for you,rising on the thrid day for you

Why should I believe in jesus over any other deity? Ive read the whole bible several times. I still cant find it more convincing than the story of any other deities. To get a full understand of the bible it helps to be a christian, you get more insight to what is going on in the bible and he will teach you and help you understand things

History books dont tell me how to spend my life or that im going to hell for not believing in them so history books and the bible cant be compared.

Other than that you still dont seem to get that god had complete control over wether he wanted evil to exist or not. It is within his power to stop it. How can he be all loving when he has the power to save people from his own wrath but choses not too? B/c some people choose not to believe and some choose the hard way,God doesn't send people to Hell, people kinda send theirselves thereThat would make him malevolent.

My reponse is in bold
