| I'm not Christian, but I have a certain respect for the religion.
1. All beliefs are descended from earlier beliefs combined with new experiences and outside ideas, including yours. Why is this a challenge?
2. The modern concept of "Hell" is completely extrabiblical. There are mentions of "Hellfire" in the Bible but not much of a description of what it is. It is definitely not the focus of "pure" Christianity. The "belief in god" thing is also extrabiblical; nowhere is this commanded.
3. First you ask why finite sins should lead to infinite punishment, then you ask why murder should be forgiven by "trivial" acts? I'm not Christian, but if a person repents, I say forgive them; people are made what they are by their surroundings anyways.
I don't understand your last question. |
