Why I'm Anti-Theistic

[Davian]

God consigns the unbelieving wicked to hell.

What about those that are simply unconvinced? Are they okay, or is it off to Hell with them as well?

And all the rapists, and serial killers, mass murderers? They'll be fine, as long as they believe in some manner?

The attitude you have is seen in a lot of people in prison. They blame the judge for their being there. They are loathe to take responsibility for their deeds and would rather blame anyone but themselves.

In another thread, you said "God is responsible for sending people to hell the same way a judge is responsible for sending a criminal to jail."

It is my understanding that the criminal justice system does try to establish that the accused can be held responsible for the crime for which they are charged. Would you agree?

OK, if you are not that into philosophy, you might not like the book I recommended. You might try a shorter book from him called God's Revelation to the Human Heart. Despite the hideous cover design, it is a good short book of his.

Thanks for the recommendation.

Because an inexperienced eleven year old is capable of determining such things that many adults struggle with.

Someone so young basing a solidified worldview is on no other basis than arbitrary sustenance.

Well I thought really hard about it. I also spent the next 15 years or so questioning and examining my beliefs and the beliefs of others.

One of great things about truth is that it doesn't matter if it's discovered by an 11 year old with a lot of time on his hands or a 55 year old after a lifetime of reflection...it remains the truth regardless.

Being convinced of the central tenets of the Christian faith is not what gets someone into heaven. In other words, it is not a matter of being convinced or unconvinced.

And all the rapists, and serial killers, mass murderers? They'll be fine, as long as they believe in some manner?

No.

Yes sir.
