No, just one of Satan's Evil Minions.

Threads where Christians rationalize hell in their own minds as well as try to convince others of the necessity of a place of eternal torture really disgusts me. Christians profess a superior morality, and then try to rationalize a place that causes human beings eternal suffering which comes from that source of superior morality.

The greatest evil masquerading as the greatest good.
Every time I see that quote it simply makes more sense.

Honestly, watching people try to legitamize hell and remove the burden of evil from god's shoulders (even as creator) makes me incredibly angry. So angry, I think I'll stop soon before the remainder of my post is edited.

Taffer: You bring up an excellent point though. It's something I have honestly wondered as well.

So, basically it's a sort of "I'll see you there and won't you be suprised" type of thing?

Seems fair to me.

But, yet, I won't even get a light spanking for being bad?

If that's your idea of heaven, I'm sure it can be arranged.

Question hell not in OT

So, christians, while we're on the subject, what's up with hell or heaven not being taught about in the OT until at least Daniel? If it was THAT BAD AND IMPORTANT, why wait so long to reveal this powerful source of motivation. Oh, I get it!(sarcasm) Gos inspired those other cultures that the later Jews borrowed the concept from. Puhleez.

Everyone who believes in hell claims that they won't go there. Coincidence?
