Because He is also a perfect Judge.

Hey, if you mis-behave, your parents are going to discipline you. That is, if they are loving parents. If they don't give a rip about you or what you do, then you can run wild.

There is no such thing as Hell.

But just look at how God treated His own children Adam and Eve. He created them, stuck them in a garden, gave them a rule that didn't make much sense to them since they were so naive and ignorant. Then ignored them while a talking snake convinced them to sin, even though they did not know right from wrong or what sin was.

Then for this single act of disobedience God punishes them all the entire human race for eternity. The human equivalent is the first time your child misbehaves you spank them for four hours and them put them into an orphanage!

So if this is how God treats his first created children, it is little wonder he has no problem seeing people tortured for eternity in Hell. But I wouldn't worry too much, God is imaginary.

A couple of random thoughts.

1) Loving parents still ground their kids.

2) God doesn't send people to Hell, people send themselves there by the choices they make.

3) I think we'll all end up where we'll be most comfortable. I expect those who go to Hell will be much more comfortable there than in the presence of God fully aware of everything they've done.

If there is really a God that existed then or now, He is a cruel being he raped a married woman, he drowned those that he didn't like, he murdered innocent first born babies, and he lied, he said eat of this tree and you will surely die they did only because the serpent wanted them to learn from the tree and THEY DIDN'T DIE as God told them they would. But he did kill them all later. The God in the Bible is a heartless God with no comfort for those on Earth.

Hell does not exist, and will not exist. All will be saved.

"For God has bound all men over to disobedience so that he may have mercy on them all." -- Romans 11:32 (The summary of Paul's whole argument in Romans.)

"This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth." 1 Timothy 2:3-4

"Whatever the LORD wishes he does in heaven and on earth" Psalm 135:6 (So is His will for the salvation of all frustrated?)

And contrary to the Calvinists, ALL means ALL!!

Judaism doesn't teach the idea of eternal punishment. Judaism doesn't see "Satan" as Christians do either (Jews accept Satan as an angel of 'God' who does the job assigned to him to do -- challenge humans, make them stronger). Christians on the other hand have had the idea of hell pounded into their heads -- and most of them are reluctant or afraid to even question it, because they've been brainwashed to believe that applying logic or common sense to religion is just the devil whispering in their ear.

Christian belief is that 'God' created a place of eternal fire and endless suffering into which he could toss every soul who displeases 'him'. And instead of just zapping the so-called "Satan" from the get-go, Christianity says that 'God' decided to let him hang around and make humans miserable and maybe even entice them to hell. You know, that would be like a mother knowing that there's a child molester in the neighborhood and turning her back while her children play in his yard.

Christianity insults God.

God does NOT send us to hell, he gave us the freedom to make our own choices. It is ourselves who decide where we will go, according to the decisions we make in life.

Your parents raise you, and teach you what is right and what is wrong.. If you choose to do bad things, and get sent to prison, or are killed, does that mean your parents don't love you!? NO! Your parents still love you, but it was YOUR decisions that have caused you grief.

Same thing with God. He created us with a brain to think and use. He gave us the knowledge of right from wrong. If we choose to do wrong, why should we blame Him for the outcome of our poor choices!?

God our father loves us so very much and does not want to send anyone to hell. But God our father can not behold sin. That's why he gave us His son Jesus as a substitution for our sin. For God so loved the world that He gave His only Begotten son, that whoever(put your name here) believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life.John3:16. Hell is not for the Children of God but only for the devil and all those who rejected the saving grace that is in Christ Jesus. This is the good news! I attest to it.

God does not send us to Hell. We make the choice to follow the rules and receive the reward or disobey and receive the punishment. I loving parent disciplines a child when they disobey.

If everyone loved his neighbor and acted accordingly, we wouild live in a Utopian world. God knows were are human and fail to always act lovingly. So he told us that if we really felt badly about what we had done and made a real effort to do better, we would be forgiven. And we would have the Utopian world we truly wanted.........in Heaven.

Those who don't want that Utopian world do as they please; and never feel badly for what they have done because all that matters to them is themselves. Oddly, they contribute to a non-Utopian world of chaos because that is what they want. And, they too, get what they want...........in Hell.

Everybody wins. And God shows his love by allowing everyone to achieve their goals of Heaven or Hell.

Your parents do the same. If you do drugs, steal, kill, etc.; and they support you through it all, they are also supporting your right to OD, get killed, or go to jail.

There is no such thing as Hell. You said it yourself, if God is so loving, why would he even create Hell?

Religion would have you think that God will judge us and send us to Hell because they want to attract and keep the masses in their religion by playing on their fear. They tell you that you have to believe in their faith or else you will go to Hell..
