Why don't you believe in Hell?

[1inChrist]

1 in C,

This may seem like a strange question, but bear with me.

Are you bitter against the easter Bunny?

Only when you try and compare him with God.

Sheesh, you can miss a lot in a short drive home from a friend's place. TS, you haven't wooed him back away from me, have you?

No. You can have him. He has a stinky trait that makes him unacceptable as the father-of-my-love-child (TM)

They got riled up when I informed them that they need Jesus or they will not go to Heaven with The Father when they die. They then called Jesus names and ridiculed him like you do. I was only sharing the Glorious news of His Sacrifice and they flew off the handle.

I'm sure they flew off the handle because you are as trollish in RL as you are on the 'net. Maybe they are happy being Jewish and don't want your bullsh!t in the workplace.

There's really no comparison. God has a much cuter nose, for one thing.

 

[1inChrist]

I'm sure they flew off the handle because you are as trollish in RL as you are on the 'net. Maybe they are happy being Jewish and don't want your bullsh!t in the workplace.

But they have not accepted Christ. I MUST tell people of the Glorious news.

You mean you are bitter at me when I compare the Easter Bunny to God. But you aren't actually bitter at the Easter Bunny

 

[Marquis de Carabas]

Woot. You can still have him on holidays and alternating weekends if you like.

PS I don't have any stinky traits

Right I do not believe in the easter bunny. How can I be bitter towards him? My parents never fed me that garbage about santa clause and all that other children's fantasy mumbo jumbo.

So... where does Purgatory fit into this picture? Since you are a staunch KJV believer...

BTW FYI - Look at my avatar. Who do you REALLY think I am?

Re: Re: Re: Why don't you believe in Hell?

Why do atheists always repeat this dribble? I do not believe Hell is a myth and either do you. You know Hell is not like Santa Clause or the Tooth Fairy because Santa Clause and the Tooth Fairy were created for children and on purpose. Hell is a spiritual and philosophical idea that many people believe to be real.

Why do xians always repeat this dribble? So what if so many people believe it to be real. That in itself doesn't make it real.

Truth is not determined by how many people believe in it.

You presume, because your Bible tells you so, that everyone "knows" god and by inference also hell, and that atheists reject him/it. I haven't rejected anybody. I concluded, using the logic and reason that you believe to have been given me by god, that gods do not exist, yours or any others. Don't tell me what I know.


Yeah, I know that posting this is futile - in the four hours since the thread was opened, there are over 9 pages of replies. Call me Fish - I jumped on the bait.

...and just how many times did you tell these people the glorious news?

First, I've never ridiculed Jesus.

Second, how would you feel if I tried to convert you to a different religion by telling you i) that your current beliefs were inaccurate propaganda and ii) that not making the switch means you are going to hell?

See, you get upset when people here try to explain why they aren't Christians (And they aren't threatening your eternal soul). Imagine how much more upsetting that would be if they not only pointed out all the problems with Christianity but then said, for instance, "everything in the bible is actually about religion X and if you don't abandon Christ and follow religion X, you will burn forever"

You'd be mighty peeved, I bet. I think this is what happened with your co-workers

I know this is repetitive, but I want you to understand and I'm tired.

Thank you for proving my point.
Jews don't believe in Jesus, hence they can't be bitter about him

Athiest don't believe in Jesus, We can't be bitter at someone that we don't believe exists

It's as rediculous as you being bitter at the Easter Bunny

 

[Cosmo]

But they have not accepted Christ. I MUST tell people of the Glorious news.

And what if they're happy being Jewish, just as we're happy being the way we are? Will you ever leave them be, or must you continue to harry them?

You know, harassment is a legal offense.

...and just how many times did you tell these people the glorious news?

I've brought it up more than a few times. I usually pray at lunch infront of them because I do thank the Lord before I eat, always.

I think you're a man of wealth and taste who's been around for a long, long year...

Right I do not believe in Jesus or God. How can I be bitter towards him?

EDIT: Curses! Beaten!

It's not about accepting Christ. It's about accepting 1inChrist as your Saviour.

would you like to be the father-of-my-love-child (TM)?

They may be happy now but what about when they die without Jesus?
