Yes, this would be unfair and immoral. To suggest that you're free to live a horrible life, then say a few words in a certain order, and reeeeeally believe is, well, laughable and a sham.

A few words in a certain order? So if you don't really believe it would be futile and if you did why would it be wrong to give mercy?

He would create a way to forego the eternal pain and suffering by dying on the cross for each and every person who will accept Him. God is not only all loving but HE is also Holy and HE must provide justice and mercy both.

Could you please answer the following:

If I told you I was going to hideously torture my children every second, for the rest of their lives, because they didn't give me enough credit for raising them, what would you think of me? What would you say if I then proclaimed how much I loved my children? (And that torture is only for their life time, not for eternity, so I am still being literally infinitely kinder than your god.)


If He told you that all you had to do was accept Him and if you didn't you would suffer the justice for your sins; then you decide, you then make the ultimate choice to accept the result of not accepting Him. Is that unfair or immoral?

Again, please answer the above question.

This made me laugh out loud. He has revealed Himself to millions and yet you don't believe them. So how would you claim he hasn't revealed Himself to anyone?

Not sure why you would lol. He hasn't revealed himself to me. So I use the brain God gave me, and don't buy tall tales. For example I don't believe in alien abductions either. God must know that, and thus has chosen not to reveal himself to me. Or is gullibility a requirement of Christianity?

Should't "mercy" given be commensurate with compassion, empathy and a life well lived?

What would you think of them if they said you don't exist because of that?

How about just answering the question (I've modified it take the above into account. It makes the behaviour even worse.):

If I had never entered my children's lives once, and then I hideously tortured them for the rest of their lives because they didn't give me enough credit for raising them, what would you think of me?

And as I said, I would still literally be infinitely kinder than your god because I'm not torturing them for eternity.

You are not God and you are not Holy. You are not the judge and jury of mankind. You can not know the heart and mind of your children. You are not the one that must apply justice or mercy. So this is not equatable or similar.

Not sure why you would lol. He hasn't revealed himself to me. So I use the brain God gave me, and don't buy tall tales.

That is your choice. I use my brain and I see the evidence of God not only through His revealing Himself to me but in the universe as well.

For example I don't believe in alien abductions either. God must know that, and thus has chosen not to reveal himself to me. Or is gullibility a requirement of Christianity?

I think if you would allow yourself you could see the reason in it.

Ah, another instance of heart not really meaning heart. Got it.

It's funny how believers always seem to believe the Lord tells them things that they already agree with. Good times.

Are we done with question-and-ridicule now?

Wait a minute here, you claimed your heart told you to do something (a demonstrably falsafiable claim) and then claim I'm ridiculing you now?

Why don't you test your Lord and ask me to leave under threat of being reported?

So both you and AV refuse to answer a ridiculously obvious moral question.

That tells me a lot about Christianity, and those who practice it.


That is your choice. I use my brain and I see the evidence of God not only through His revealing Himself to me but in the universe as well.

I think if you would allow yourself you could see the reason in it.

No. God is all-knowing, so he knows he hasn't revealed himself to me. That would be His choice, not mine.

I answered, you might not like the answer but I gave you an answer.

Why would He reveal Himself to someone who ridicules Him and spends a lot of their time mocking and ridiculing those who do believe in Him?

I can't believe you are still using that term, even after being informed, and obviously understanding, that it is offensive to some people.

Thank you for this insight into Christianity. It tells me far more about your religion than all the words you've posted.
