It doesn't earn that.

I won't reply to that since I'm a little confused about that issue right now. ;)

Actually, he has.

Well, I guess we disagree there. ;)

Who said you are?

Well, it just makes more sense to me to punish someone who has done something bad, and for the punishment to be eternal it would have to be pretty bad, wouldn't it?

Sounds like a very common issue with understanding the definitions and distinctions between belief, faith, evidence and proof.

Yeah, I've been told that. ;)

I'd suggest that perhaps you just didn't recognise them for what they were.

That certainly is one hypothesis.

That's actually pretty close to orthodox Catholic theology (other than the part in parenthesis).

Ok, thanks for the information.
