of some of the most evil, terrible people on the planet, but believe in and worship a god that allows people to be tortured for eternity just for not believing in him.
Seems kind of hypocritical to me. Your comments?

Seems pretty dark and oppresive to me. Is that really what you think your god is?

Welcome to the world of religions. I found that every religion is hypocritical in some way or another, but in the Christian religion, it seems to be the worst. They say G-d is a gentle, and kind being. Yet, he is willing to sacrifice his creation. Kind? Gentle? But then again what can you expect from a religion in which their main item of worship is a torture device(the cross)?

Because it serves their purpose... The threat of torture for eternity is used to convert and control non-believers.

We are not the Creator. We are told that if we hate our Brother/sister, then we can go to hell.
That is a scary thought! If we dont love our brother/sister then we cant love JESUS...
Our GOD created us. HE alone is the judge and jury. HE even said that there would be those who will be tossed away, because they dont believe in HIS SON.
Each of us has a choice... to embrace JESUS, or to deny HIM...Those who deny HIM, are in Sin. Those who Repented, and are baptised, are with Salvation from HIM, whom we call the CHRIST.
Its YOUR CHOICE..I pray that you will make the "right choice"...
I wish you well..

Well, in the first place, I hope you guess who I am. You post some cool q&a's, and I salute you.
As it has been posted, we atheists talk among ourselves, and lame blind followers, nothingness-embracers wont take heed of our claims.
BTW, how come that girl is the Top Answerer, when I haven't seen any of her answers here? MMMMHHH!!

Your opinion does not cont--nor does mine.
Our bodies are Temples of The God. We should take care of them.
The potter has every right to destroy any pots he wishes....so with THE GOD!

Because it is not our place to torture anyone. God will punish. AND we are to love our enemies and pray for those who dispitefully use us.
