Does Everyone Have the Right to Spend Eternity Outside of Hell?
I am told regularly that I have no right to live outside of Hell. As an atheist I have lived my entire life outside of Hell and will remain outside of Hell, FOREVER. I would argue that religious zealots live in a Hell that they create in their imagination that they only escape from after their brains stops functioning. It's just sad that they feel everyone else should live in this same Hell
Sir Winston Churchill said: "If you are going through hell .... keep going.."
Most of those who believe in hell come under the words of Oskar Wilde when he said: "We are each our own devil and make this world our hell." If all you can think about is keeping yourself from going to hell, you are not living a happy life. If you spend your life worrying about where others are going, you are wasting it. This is a beautiful place when we think about "GOOD".
"So potent was religion in persuading to evil dreams." Titus Lucretious Caru, (around Jesus' time) I seem to see those "evil dreams" here, daily. They've taken over the minds of a few that still think the way some did 20 centuries ago. A shame, they are their own devils.
Have you heard that when I get tired of fools, I ban them and pray they will see it illustrates how God will get tired of them and banish them forever in Hell if they won't repent and believe on the Lord Jesus Christ?
Who are you kidding you ban anyone who can show that you are wrong. I am banned in all of your posts only because I offer reason and logic to disprove your deceit.
You get banned because I get tired of your profane manners and closed minded nonsense.......on and on and on you go with it, trying to blame God for your misery of dying. If I could I would ban you here. You are daring God to ban you from life and leave you dying in Hell forever, and if you keep pushing for it you are gong to get it from God and you will remember I tried to talk you out of going against your own life by how you are going against God.
First I have good manners and I am very open minded all I need is evidence stronger than what I have offered and I would change my position. It actually happened with 911, I argued against the conspiracy theories until I couldn't support my arguments then I conceded that I was wrong. I am not too proud to admit when I am wrong.
I have never blamed God for anything as God's are imaginary and therefore can't be blamed for anything.
If there were a God I would not be an atheist, I have challenged your God to cause harm to me I do this with no fear as I know that imaginary things can't harm me. What concerns me are that people with imaginary entities do harm others. They use their imaginary Gods as an excuse to condemn, demean, oppress, and in some places kill innocent people. This is the negative aspect of religious belief.
Notice that I have never banned a person who disagrees with me I just offer better evidence that I am correct or concede that they have better evidence than I do. That is how DEBATE works note the title of the site we are at CreateDebate
Bob, do you expect me to read this when you are dying and trying to justify yourself as if the fact you are not in Hell now proves you have the right to never be in Hell? I think you and Bohemian should get together and talk more.
You didn't cease to exist after I banned you, so what are you crying about? You hate God anyways, you should be happy to be banned from my discussions. I know Dawkins seems to enjoy going into a rabid meltdown throwing a temper tantrum against God.......maybe that's why you come to my debates, you spend so much time pretending to be satisfied in your dying that you just have to vent some of your accumulated animosity against God once in a while....and you sound every bit as angry and animalistic like a rabid devil the same as Dawkins....have you seen the video of him foaming at the mouth looking like a mad devil insulting God and everybody who claims to know Him through Jesus Christ in every mean and nasty way He can get it out of his mouth as he spits the foam which would slow his words if he didn't keep on being angry? You sound just like him, and I'm sure if we could see you on video when you are going off on a rant against God, you would look just like Dawkins........like a mad little devil trying to tell God you are too good to burn in Hell and it's His fault for making you go there.
Keep on smiling, Bob, enjoy while you can.....and don't tell me about having any manners, you're a murderer at heart, trying to murder God and like Dawkins you would murder me with your mouth if possible and your hands if the law allowed it.
You ban people because you like to blasphemously play God and you are afraid of questions. You bought into Satans book and it causes you to verbally assault Gods creation. The devil wants you to believe that Gods children belong in hell with him.
What makes you think God messed up so much that everyone is hell bound?
If you created a painting and I said it sucked, would you feel like I was serving you?
What makes you think you have the right to insult God? How long do you expect to get away with it?
Given me more than I deserve? You haven't answered a single question Lol. God doesn't owe me anything, but I wasn't asking him, I was asking you. If answering means you have to stop pretending you are God, I guess I'll forget about it. It's not gonna happen.
you don't deserve an answer, do you? If you deserve it, why can't you get it? who are you going to sue? Is life unfair, not giving you what you deserve? Do you deserve more time to whine?
I like that you can't answer my questions. It proves my position. I would think it would be incredibly frustrating for you though. Especially since you can't ban me. Like when I proved I deserve to exist outside of hell. Couldn't beat it so you banned me. Again, I enjoyed that since it reinforced my position.
As I have already shown, I am not against God, you are. Now I'm going to answer your question even though you cannot answer mine. My head is harder than my heart as my heart is devoid of bones. It's biology. Now your turn.
Where would "The Devil" have come from in the religious thought process? Would he impregnate a virgin with a demigod like Yahweh/Jesus? Does Yahweh enjoy evil and that is why he gave all of his creation the capacity for evil. If God created everything and evil exists and flourishes wouldn't that mean that God loves evil and helps it flourish. I guess in the religious world if the Devil is Evil and God created evil then God would have created me therefore the devil is my father. You religious people are just so smart I don't know how you come up with this stuff, LOL
Whew, I'm glad that this religious stuff is make believe otherwise it would be scary
