You intended this as a purely rhetorical question, but I'll take the liberty of treating it as a real one.
No, I do not think any entity, perfect or otherwise, has the right to punish any sentient being forever. In fact, I object to this concept on so many levels that I hardly know where to start in explaining my intellectual rejection and emotional revulsion at the idea.
First of all, while repeat offenses are certainly treated more severely than isolated incidents, even a trillion speeding tickets would never add up to the same gravity as a single premeditated murder, and neither of those offenses would justify torture, let alone an ETERNAL state of torment.
Justice has got a social function, first and foremost: encourage cooperation, penalize anti-social behaviour, protect the herd from harm, and yes: also a certain degree of basic reciprocity ("you hurt me, so now I want to (see you) hurt you in turn").
Only that last point touches upon your concept of eternal damnation as justice, and even in that case, it is not a sustainable argument. To suggest that an eternal deity is so mortally offended and hurt by Suzy's theft of grandma's cookies as to be compelled to torment the girl throughout infinity is beyond spurious. It would even be spurious if Suzy turned out to be a serial killer at some point and proceeded to butcher thousands of people in her lifetime.
Her torture would be literally pointless: it didn't prevent the murders, it won't discourage similar deeds in the future, it doesn't recompensate the victims, it does not redeem or enlighten Suzy to the error of her ways. It just inflicts an infinite amount of agony for finite crimes.
Neither a deity's supposed "perfection" (which is seriously jeopardised by the notion that it is offended by the naughty thoughts of some sapient apes on a speck of dust in the infinite sea of space-time) nor their status as "creator" gives it the right to inflict torment (eternal or otherwise) upon sentient, self-aware beings.
Such behaviour is such a huge disqualifier that it precludes any worship.
IF there was a deity, and IF it placed even one being in eternal torment, I'd consider it my moral duty to oppose it - even if my efforts were rendered futile by my comparative powerlessness. No promise of bliss, exaltation, or other rewards could entice me to ignore the sheer injustice of that one being suffering senselessly.
No.
There is a reason why no legal system outside of a dystopian dictatorship will ever penalize "thoughtcrime".
There is an important and fundamental difference between thinking about doing something, or even being tempted to do it, and actually turning that impulse into action.
There is a moral dimension to trying to avoid such impulses, but it's NOT what you seem to suggest here. Social behaviour based on fear of external authorities/punishment is a very fragile construct: remove the authority figure, and people will turn into monsters, since their good conduct was conditional on the application of external force. It's far more sustainable to have people realize *why* a certain course of action is wrong.
For example, even if you removed every means of penalising me, I'd still not be tempted to harm the people around me (or even random strangers). The prospect of their hurt causes me considerable discomfort, and I also understand that I'd be in dire straits if everybody else dismissed social behaviour.
You are moving the goalposts. Between "disqualifying for a perfect place" and "deserving eternal torment" lies an infinite amount of other options.
The Bible says for one sin we die, but for illustration purposes lets forget that part, because you are not ready for that concept yet. Lets multiply all our sins together and see if rationally speaking it is possible for God to be just in eternal damnation.
so how many life sentences should a person have if anger is considered murder?
lets start there, how many years would a NON christian be in prison if every time they were angry they got a life sentence in Hell?
say when someone cuts in front of you, thats a hundred years.
say your stuck in traffic, a hundred
say you are in a fight with your boyfriend and you say " you idiot!"
thats a hundred years (matthew 5:22)
every time you have called someone a moron or idiot, 100 years
the line at the bank is too long, and your late for your dentist appointment and you lose your cool - 100 years.
someone at taco bell puts ketsup on your taco, when you wanted hotsause, 100 years
at school the teacher gives you a bad grade unjustly, and you throw your books- 100 years.
note being frustrated is not the same as being angry. Anger has a way of manifesting itself physically. So I tried to isolate frustration from anger.
it's okay to be frustrated, just not to manifest it in an angery way at other people and act rudely because of it.
See there just is a few paragraphs that is 800 years, and all this can happen in one day, if it's a bad day. And usually when we have a bad day, it does multiply itself like the above.
so simply for losing your cool, to God, that is 800 years.
you have murdered someone in your heart, and hated that person.
that is murder to God, because God cares less about the physical killing of someone, thats just a symptom. The root cause is bitterness in the soul. Once we deal with the root bitterness we have in our life, we are able to forgive and forget.
The Bible says if we can't forgive our brother, that God will neither forgive us.
Love is the first fruit of the spirit, when you are forgiven of all your wrongs, by love and Grace, you are free to love other people.
So I have dealt with only one sin above, that was anger.
in the old testament adultery was judged by death as well, if you stole something your hand was cut off.
These were laws God made.
a homosexual was killed.
so if we see that these laws are for sins like the above, it is not to far stretched to believe hypothetically that a life in prison is equivalent to the death penalty,
so for every time you looked at someone in lust, 100 years.
for guys that is probably a harder one.
But I see God's mindset, logically.
Something dies in us when we sin.
the other week I was just driving a loving God, and I committed this sin (one that I had been struggling with that week), and all of a sudden I was mad and angry at God, because he made that sin illegal. I really was angry. I even agreed it was wrong, but I was angry at the lawmaker for that short while, just over one sin.
if you multiply say 30,000 sins over a typical (moral) lifestyle.
thats a lot of anger.
It is my hypothesis, that the people who go to hell, are perfectly fine going to any place where God is not. Even though technically He is everywhere, and you can't get away from that. They are perfectly happy to go to hell, at least initially.
then after the first few moments, all their sensors are overloaded with pain, all 5 senses burning. Ears filled with screeming of other people, skin cells burning yet not being consumed. See what people don't realize is right before people go to hell, they are resurrected and are in their glorified resurrected bodies. So they have a glorified flesh. So fire won't consume and angel, at least not normal fire. It is my thesis that both the fire and the flesh in there, and the angels are all glorified beings, and this is a supernatural and physical (both) type of torture instrument.
If I was able to hear everythought of every individual, every sin. Especially when I asked them not to, lying to my face, disrespecting my words, every day all day, 30,000 times. And being able to pull anyone of the 30,000 sins in my memory, as if it was just now.
I would justify eternal hell too, wouldn't you?
