Why don't you believe in Hell?

[Z]

Because you just made that up in your mind and it has no bases in reality.

ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US!

Sorry, I could not resist...

Ahem, what I was going to post was... BINGO! Hell has no basis in reality - and the Bible, which is the only place whence we find references to Hell, is made up in the minds of the old, dead dudes who wrote them.

TA-DA!!!!!!!!!

 

[Lord Emsworth]

God is not cruel. You just base this off a materialistic worldview and you do not understand the universe in which God exists.

In which?

Can you prove your assumptions? No? Didn't think so.

Your signature is very offensive to me.

Waaah. Grow up. Get a real life.

I was talking about the George Carlin quote in Operaider's signature.

Damn. Well, I'll try to come up with something more offensive just for you, ok?

Because you just created it to argue with me, that's why I do not believe it.

You don't really know that, though, do you? I assert that this is a belief that grew out of a conversation I had with a friend of mine at UT some few summers back, and I have held steadfastly to that belief ever since. Also, a few guys I know once got in a really bad car wreck, and they swear they heard "When the Tigers Broke Free" right before they were brought back from the brink of death.

Huh?

God is not cruel. You just base this off a materialistic worldview and you do not understand the universe in which God exists.

The universe in which gods exist is not the one I know, so in a sense, you are correct. This in no way confirms your hypothesis that hell exists.

And if you don't consider infinite punishment for finite offenses to be cruel, then you do not understand cruel.

YOU JUST MADE THIS UP TO ARGUE WITH ME AND I DON'T BELIEVE IT.

 

[Lord Emsworth]

Huh?

The universe IN which God (the creator of the universe) exists. But then again we have rejected logic anyway no?

You don't believe me because it's all pretend. Good show. And that's why I don't believe in Hell. It's all pretend. Sure, someone else came up with it for you, because you're an unoriginal kook, but it's still grade A bullsh.

You should see the quotes I decided not to use. This was picked because I consider it tame yet effective, and the truth

Did he give up medicine too? 'Cuz I don't want to go anywhere near his practice - his record seems to be a little, what's the word, bad.

It's not pretend and you will be screaming for God when you are trusted through the Gates of Hell and start to boil in the Lake of Fire. The Lake of Fire is full of pain and horror.

Actually he was highly respected in the atheism community because he was a medical scientist and rational atheist.

All those unsaved people that have NDEs that are not about hell.

Next.

Is that all there is to Hell? Just the lake of fire? I think when I get to hell the boredom will overcome me before the fire does.

You'll pardon me for not taking your word for it. Do you have references?
