Quote by: christianmathew Well sonart, can you read minds or something? no seriously, flush my opinions, go throw my facts down a hole. I came here to learn what other people think, and then to say what I believe. |
Sorry to disagree with you, mathew, but many of us here have been doing this for years and years, and we didn't fall off the turnip truck yesterday.
When you say things like,
"Any non believer can get this truth, all they have to do is believe in God. I will tell you this truth if you want me to, complete with scripture.", it's pretty clear that's what you were hoping for in the first place. The opportunity to convert someone.
And when you blithely condemn all atheists to the agonies of Hell for all eternity, simply for not believing what you do, it's equally clear that you're not the least bit interested in what other people think. How could you be, if you've already condemned us unconditionally for what we think? After all, there have been many devout Christians on this board who do NOT share your belief in unconditional damnation for folks who otherwise live perfectly decent lives.
Nah, we can smell BS a mile away here, mathew, and you're full of it.

Quote by: christianmathew Now you think you have every scenario wrapped up in this story. But I'll spring an old rule on you. Children do not go to hell, it is deemed that they are not mature enough to make their own decisions. So no, she won't go to hell. |
Except she's not a child, mathew. She's 13. That's the average age at which
girls exit puberty and become what's considered young adults, physiologically capable of bearing children, which they often do in some cultures.
Care to try again? How about if she were 14? That's the
age of consent in many countries.

Quote by: christianmathew He gives us free will, so we can make our own decisions. It is not all his will, but our will. It's your choice not to believe in christianity. |
I see. And now that I've exercised that will -- along with the girl in the story -- God intends to punish us in the most cruel, vicious, brutal way possible for using the very minds and will He gave us, Particularly among those in foreign lands who consciously choose to honor their father and mother by remaining faithful to the non-Christian beliefs of their families and communities.
Your God seems to be quite the nasty trickster.
