If God is just and could create a world where punishment is only a result of us choosing to do an immoral action including previous lives then he would. So is it possible to create a world where the only evil a soul recieves is a result of its misdeeds?
Some problems I have are: We have the pain of hunger and thirst, that is how we were created. Going way back to first soul that was created he couldn't have had any previous sins where he would deserve the evil of hunger and thirst.
What about others free will are we subject to it? (I don't think so, because We are not physically able to do things even if we wanted to. For example I want to run faster a car. It is not possible. So if I want to hurt someone who is undeserving I may not be able to. Also some actions that are illogical are not within our free will. No one would eat their own feces with out a reason.
But couldn't someone being hurt as a result of their misdeeds hurt someone who is rightious. If my mom dided I'd be sad.

Religious people are just groups of people who are trying to do what they believe is right. They will not always get it right because they are imperfect and will make mistakes/sin. Why is it that when a religious person ie Mel Gibson gets into trouble just like any other person everybody says that all religious people are hypocrites? Why do peopl automatically say that all religious are hypocrites because we say that people ought to do what is right and because we try to do what is right? Sure we mess up. Doesn't everybody?

Christians say it is OK for a scape goat to pay for your sins. My point is this. If I break a plate and you pay for it, I am positive I shall break another plate next time. What's the point in punishing somebody else for what you do wrong? This is the reason why I am more for the Heleusinian Mysteries or Greek religion. Here, it is God instead who punishes you for what you do wrong.
