Jerseygirl its not like that you can't commit gross crimes then say beam me up Jesus and expect to go to heaven. It has to be a sincere request. And only God can tell if thats good enough.

Why do people believe God does punish sinfulness, I do not.

I don't.
I do find it absurd that a god who professes love for his children would even think of sending them to hell.
I think it even more absurd that a person can commit any heinous act here on Earth and at the last minute repent and go to Heaven while someone who has contributed nothing but kindness yet doesn't say the 'magic' words, goes to straight Hell.
If that's the Christian idea of punishing 'sinfulness' then so be it, I just find it wrong.

I am not mad at the xtian god....I simply do not believe in him....that is different from mad. I do get very annoyed at those whom choose to follow xtianity and believe it is their duty to shove, judge and in general disrespect anyone different than them. I get very mad at those who call themselves xtian, but can't walk their own talk.
God and Goddess have nothing to do with it.

You misunderstand. We can't be angry at someone who doesn't exist punishing something that doesn't exist.
We are only upset with those who would try to force others to believe such mythology as if it were true.

Because mere men have more compassion than their perceptions of God. That compassion we feel is the true God.

I believe he punishes sinfulness, because sin is knowing god's rule and then disobeying. People get mad because it proves that the bible is hypocritical.

Because they're sinful and doesn't want to be punished for it. They look for justification to their acts in anger and cheer-leading (agreement) individuals.
Unfortunately for them, truth still stands.

I believe that if there is a god, he truly loves everyone, and unlike the Christian god, he would grant everyone salvation.

Pride and self-will.
How do I know?
That's exactly what I did before I was saved.
Oh, and ignorance.
Hate to sound mean, but sometimes the truth hurts.
The proof is in the four thumbs down.
People don't like it when someone (especially a perfect being) tells them that they need a savior. It's natural human instinct, to rebel against God. That's what sin is.

It doesn't matter if they get mad or not. God is God, right? He can do what he wants, when he wants.
