    And as far as I’m aware it doesn’t actually exist in Judaism which is the wellspring of Christianity and predates the Grecian mythologies.

    As far as I’m aware, the Jewish tradition believes in Gehennim, which is a spinning cleansing fire that only Burns you until you don’t need to be cleaned anymore.

    To me that is a much more fitting and loving punishment.

    It’s like, you did a lot of bad stuff, but there is still good in you, the good in you would suffer throughout eternity if the bad stuff you did was there along with it so let’s just scrape all the gunk off, wash you clean, and then you can come and enjoy Paradise.

    I believe at this point there’s not much I could do to avoid going through that but at least that is something to look forward to even for a piece of crap like myself.

      Still not very loving when he could just snap his fingers and the gunk is gone. Its not like god isnt guilty of commiting crimes since he goes out of his way to commit mass murder for fun

      Aside from that though, read my posts, lol.

      I know I could work on concision but it’s hard to get a good thought out sometimes.
