That right. God loves you but if you don't love him back he'll burn you in hell for eternity. It's your choice.

It's her choice though so if she choses not to love him back it's her fault if she gets her brains blown out.


Perfect analogy except that the boyfriend didn't create the girlfriend. Nor is the boyfriend the objective standard against which all is judged.

But ya know... other than that is a perfect analogy. crazy


A God didn't create the boyfriend nor is a God going to judge anybody. God's and all the fairly tales about them are created in men's minds. Just because some men wrote their delusions down doesn't make those delusions true. When I was working if you had a problem employee that needed to fired you had to carefully document the reasons for firing them. If you didn't carefully document the incidents that led to you firing them the union would be able to overturn the firing. Even the union believed that writing down the infractions made them "the gospel". I remember as a young kid hearing the bible being discussed (and later on reading it myself) and thinking that this was some crazy stuff and how could anybody believe it. I figured that as I got older maybe it would might begin to make some sense but the exact opposite happened. Do you believe your God loves all living things or just humans that believe in him?


Some day we'll see won't we? You will stand before your maker. Not believing it doesn't make it so.

It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.
