Christians: We Arent Trying To Condemn Anyone

I find not divulging into nachos and cheese more of a sin, they're *** amazing.

I have no logical reason to believe that life started for no good reason.

you also have no logical reason to believe that life started for a reason.

or a bad reason.

I'm currently filling my temple with alcohol trying to drown out how *** daft you are. Requesting lifeboat.

Which is why I don't give atheists hard times for not believing.

which is why I give people who follow illogical nonsense a hard time, because they are following illogical nonsense.

If you reject God/Jesus you're off to hell for eternity with no recourse to get out and that's all you needed to know for my response to Flavin.

Human parents wouldn't even be so cruel to do such a thing even if their offspring was a vile despicable murderer. Even the few that happened to do it would be forever disturbed at their choice and likely lose hours of sleep and thought on the decision.

That's just human love at work. Scaled up to God's cosmic love, it makes no sense for him to do condemn his creations to eternal isolation. A true good deity would simply have individuals repeat the process through something like reincarnation until they got it right and entered heaven. A true 'good' deity wouldn't quit till every single creation was back in heaven. A true 'good' deity wouldn't have a place like hell exist to begin with.

But it can't be like this because religion seeks control. It doesn't care about the eternal reward because it needs the eternal torment to keep people in line so it scales things up to cosmic black and whites (heaven and hell) yet fails to fill in the blanks hoping you dont question the details.

Tell me, what would people in heaven do for eternity? You're bathing in the light of God, everything is 'good' and then what? Odds are people wouldn't get along in heaven if we're to be humans. My grandfather was the chatty type and he didn't take well to *** so im sure if he's in heaven he'd be censored for sure. If you say sin would be removed from us then you'd cease to be you, grandpa would cease to be grandpa and I'd cease to be me. We'd be someone else but it certainly wouldn't be our earthly selves. Automata perhaps?

Then what? An eternity of eating the finest food with not a care in the world? Watch the sinners squirm in hell? Eternity is a LONG time to be enjoying yourself.

Feel free to press the giant X in the upper right corner of this window.

Lifeboat provided.

You know what I find daft? The person who complains about what they read in a thread, but continues to read the thread and then admits to drowing themselves in alcohol as if that was some sort of solution.

All things decay over time.

I'm not sure about temples with grease and cheese though, lol.

I prefer alcoholics to christians, at least they usually admit they have a problem.

lmao [+]

Is this one of the requirements for gluttony?

Sin is removed from you when you die. Imperfection would be removed upon entering Heaven. That means your grandfather would still be chatty, and he wouldn't have intolerence for BS, and it wouldn't really matter if he did still have that intolerence, because people wouldn't BS.

Not every Christian believes that there is a hell. There are very little references to such a place in the Bible, FYI.

It is pretty hard to resist grease and cheese.

I believe gluttony is more about over indulgence. Taking more than what you need and leaving little for anyone else. Damaging not only yourself but others as well.

Gluttony is the guy who weighs 450 lbs., sweating and breathing heavily, in front of you int he line at McDonalds, while ordering 3 #1's large size and a 20 piece nugget, and then he goes on to order the main course.

well my mac and cheese covered in pepper will send me to this "hell", I welcome it!

Fully agreed.

I was going by this stuff St. Gregory the Great said.

sounds like some personal experience

Ok so we all finally found something to agree on!

You're too funny Jet lol... Insult someone then tell everyone a smart **** response would not be good?

How does one believe in a Heaven and not a Hell at the same time? From a Christianity standpoint, I can't see that possible. Where is the punishment for the sins?

It was actually at a Wendy's and it was an entire family of gluttons in front of me.

you misunderstood again, mr. likes to avoid when he's lost.

If my body is a temple and a gift from god, why are all the enjoyable experiences deemed a sin? Why would 'God' give us these bodies programmed to enjoy such indulgences if they are sinful?

Also, don't even bother telling me it's a 'test of faith' or some other such bs.

Oh, calm down, I'm just drinking Jesus.

There really isn't much of a mention of hell. The closest thing to an overt mentioning is the lake of sulfur and fire, which is where God will cast the devil and his minions during the 1,000 year reign of Christ, it does not say that people will sent there.

Some sects of the religion believe that those unfit to inherit God's Kingdom will simply die and fade from memory. No suffering, just non-existence.

So if we can get all the religious and non religious people to agree on this whole gluttony thing, we might have something to work with.

On another note has anyone tried those new popcorn chicken things at McDonald's? I'm thinking about trying them in a few hours when the store opens.

Eh it's late and this thread is just degenerating into insults now. Thanks for the entertainment tonight. Night.
