Don't hangovers count as torture?

You are avoiding the point on this one. You specifically said that Christianity only comprised a fraction of a percent of people. I merely refuted that with documentation.

Further, your statement of the fate of those who lived before Christ shows a lack of understanding of the Christian faith, which is based upon Judaism. Traditional Christian belief is that prior to the coming of Christ, people were responsible to meet the requirements of that religion.

Additionally, I have made no statements as to what I believe to be the fate of anyone. I do not claim to be God, nor do I pretend to have any control over the eternal fate of anyone.

I said a fraction of a percent of the people that have ever lived, not that are currently living. I am inlcuding all of our line, not just the people that have been living in the Last few 1000 years.

Very few people were followers of Judaism, so that doesn't really change a whole lot.

I never said you made statements as to people's fate. But Hell is the fate for non-Christians according to Christianity (after the alleged coming of Christ).

Wardad I agree....

Things are not heavy in here, so lightening them would not have that great of an effect.

It's the concept.

2 sides to a coin.

Your on one I am on the other.

There is no inbetween.

I see it all the time everywhere else. I do not want that to take over here.

This is my fav. part of the internet. Where I can chat with people about games, books, movies and sweet tea. Dicussions always involved learning new ideas.

I do believe that the Politiks , etc... should be in another forum if their just back and forth arguements. I am not learning anything except that I do not want to get involved. Both sides are entrenched. So they become like a stagnic pond. There is no flow.

Look at the recent threads.... There all the same.

They start off as an open ended converstation and then divide into two sides with no movement. It's like a broken record.

Sorry it's how I feel.

And the great thing about here is that I can post it.
