Christians say Heaven is a 'gift' from Jesus that you can either accept or reject, well what kind of 'gift' involves consequences for saying "no thank you" ?

Why does God toture people because they declined a gift?

If your children didn't want to go to church with you
(old enough to be home alone)
would you let them stay home?
Would you be angry?
Would you make them go?
What would you do / how would you feel?

Kids need time sometimes to figure some things out for themselves. Would you give that room or be insistant that they go in fear that the path they chose would not be one you agree with?

Serious answers please.

Sending 2/3 of the entire human population to be tortured for the rest of eternity when they didn't even do anything wrong is something that makes Hitler look like a toddler.

I mean, 2 wrongs don't make a right do they?

God reuses ancient Greek astronomy (which Thales, the "father of science," also believed) in his explanation of universe creation. The theory became very popular throughout Europe and Israel. It says the universe is actually an ocean, the flat earth separated from the ocean by a bubble, and the earth, it's moon and sun floating in the ocean (this was before gravity was known).

In the opening of Genesis he talks of the earth being formless in the "deep," while he moves across the waters (universe). He then says he divided the upper waters from lower waters, gathers the lower waters to one spot and creates dry land.

He also reuses various characters and epics from Babylonian mythos, such as Adapa (Adam & Eve), Ningishzida (serpent), Atra-Hasis (flood, among others), Epic of Gilgamesh, Enûma Eliš, etc...

Why did God feel it necessary to reuse human-made theories and mythos? Why not just tell it like it is? After all, Genesis is divinely inspired and not made by people, right?

...don't you feel that those of us who are skeptical devote more time than we should to the narrow views of an anti-American Christian cult which is, globally, of scant significance? As for me, as an American who came of age in the company of fierce believers, I have questions honest questions which only 'thinking' Christians could answer for me. The fundamentalists are what they are, rather pitiful, brainwashed folks who are, as cultists, fixated on a god of their own making.

Through God's Grace you must become as one who can never be ruled, simply because you don't need law. You must become as one who cannot be seduced to rule. You must become one who can breed this marvelous quality of freedom in your family. For without GRACE, a person is led to the many lawless "freedoms" that eventually demand restraint, and the spirit that leads to all these false freedoms rises from the pit as reformer. Only one who is perfectly free has the authority to set others perfectly free from that prison system of law and lawlessness

You must seek the way that is Truly FREE!
There's only One who have promises that and can set Men truly FREE!
His NAME is JESUS!

What say you all?

I know it is not proven either way whether any particular version of god actually exists. Just imagine that you found out that god did not.
Don't give me a "god DOES exist, I know it" answer. I'm asking you to IMAGINE. Yes, it is a hypothetical question. If you don't want to imagine, just simply don't answer the question. No one's forcing you to do anything. I also would not like to get "why are you singling out Christians" answers or "why don't YOU imagine there IS a god" answers. Please address the question.

What would you think? What would your life be like then? How would you feel? Would you be able to continue with your life without a god?

The writings in the Bible came 40-100 years after his death making it not a likely accurate source. Is Jesus like Hercules just a man that was glorified until he became a god? The writings of Josephus have been proven as false, and faith is not an appropriate answer (my mother told me when I was very young Jesus wrote the Bible and still believes that to this day.) I would like evidence for and against his existence and appreciate everyone that reads over the answers to look at evidence for and against with rational thought and reason. Feel free to IM me to continue any further discussions on the subject.

answer. You just know anyone who reads it will be impressed. But 20 minutes later, not even a thumbs down, much less a thumbs up. Be honest now, has it ever happened to you and like me, does it make you fold your arms, drop your head and look at the monitor in consternation?
