And do you see Nyone following Jesus commands to lose a hand or pluck their eye when they commit such sins?? Oh not at all. Just a nice little begging of forgiveness so the hypocrites can feel better, and go back to their sins.

Stupid is the belief in something you have not one ounce of unequivocal proof to support.
Stupid is a leap of faith.
Says rather a lot in both testaments that quite frankly just contradicts itself.
Eternal Punishment/Eternal Life.
"Matthew 18:6-9
Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me, but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea. Woe to the world for temptations to sin! For it is necessary that temptations come, but woe to the one by whom the temptation comes! And if your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life crippled or lame than with two hands or two feet to be thrown into the eternal fire. And if your eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into the hell of fire."
Eternal Fire/The Fire of Hell.
"Matthew 25:31-46
When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on his glorious throne. Before him will be gathered all the nations, and he will separate people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. And he will place the sheep on his right, but the goats on the left. Then the King will say to those on his right, “Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.” . . . Then he will say to those on his left, “Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. . . . And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”
Cheers.

That’s an opinion based on what you believe, I think you are wrong and pretending to understand Christianity, even preach it, pretty dumb
Talk about a strawman arguement, wow.
Everyones opinion is based on what they beleieve, and taking a position that basically says your beleifes = that of all Christians throughout the world is what's "pretty dumb".

Those two different teachings spring from, for all intent and purpose, the same place though.
I just find that somewhat hypocritical as it's like arguing over who God loves the most really.
