The Doctrine of Hell (page 14)

I'm really sorry for you though. 2010 and for some its still the Bronze Ages of superstitions and lore. And the videos, oh my gawd the videos. Its worse than seeing David Splane live, and you suck it up, incredible, really, just incredible.

I'm so glad this is being aired for the protection of all of our children and grandchildren.

Not all of us see the videos and think "Praise Jah!".

Some of us base our beliefs and faith on "reason and rational", some read the books of Dawkins and Hitchens and Dennet and Ehrman, but we also read the books of Wright and Metzger and others.

PSac-

And yet you believe in this concept of Hell and a Jesus/God who created it and runs it. Incredible, but that's why it is important to debate this issue.

Not your God buddy-

So I'm right. If my God reaches down to save your grandchild from HELL are you going to disown him and turn your back on him like the JWs did to you?

I thought so.

We should have more threads about Hell.

They reveal loads of information about our humanity.

Is it accurate to say that Hell once scared people into going to church, but that it now turns people away?

LWT-

Incredible isn't it. Oogabooga is alive and well.

That's not the case at my church.

Do I beleive in A concept of "hell", Yes I do.

Do I believe in a literal fiery torment? No.

Do I beleive that some are predestined to be in "hell" ? No, I think that as always, we choose our own path, even if we may not "see" that is what we are doing because you choose not to "see".

I do however, believe that ALL will have a "choice", a choice to be with their Heavenly Father and a choice NOT to be.

I see things like PSac does, no offense to DD.

Everyway you try to soften it it still comes across like the River Styx, and look at the 'Christian' diversity on this. The Eastern Orthodox like to soften it as well into some kind of floating consciousness of alienation from god- the Eternal sorrows kind of thing. All of this from a supossed book God inspired to lead humanity.

Its emotional child abuse, and our children need to be educated about it at an appropriate age.
