What has a new born baby done to be in a debt of such severity that it hangs in the balance of possible damnation?



What is Jesus forgiving this baby of? What the hell did it do?

How valuable is forgiveness under threat? Under circumstances? Under forced contract?

How evil is it to forgive mankind for something God caused but only if you worship his son?

I don't know about you Christians, but when I see a beautiful healthy new baby.. I don't see a ticking contract.. I see hope. I see purity.
I'm not sure what the answer is? Depending on which faith you ask, a lot of people will try to rationalize it's gods way of punishing them, not the child. I suppose that's why there are so many denominations?


That you may retain your self-respect, it is better to displease the people by doing what you know is right, than to temporarily please them by doing what you know is wrong.
