Wow even though this was a reply to another poster i find it funny that
religion plugs its ears, goes lalalala we cant hear you when we offer
to prove to them that their "belief" is not founded on evidence or even
on truth, then they turn around and say we are the ones who refuse to
do it their way, as if their way was proper to begin with lol the funny thing
here is i can admit without fear of hell that we could both be right, im not
saying at the same time im just saying i do not preclude the possibility that
real evidence could be offered, i find it highly unlikely but it is possible.
This thread however was on the so called freedom offered in the bible,
and many of us pointed out if you actually read the bible it does not
in any way shape or form offer freedom, it offers the same "freedom"
islam or many other over zealous religions offer, join us or die and
be punished forever, sure its a choice however it is not freedom.
Freedom is being able to decide for yourself what you want to happen
all around, not being limited to two choices....... that's oppression in the
guise of freedom, if someone puts a gun to your head and says i will
either kill you or your family member next to you, that's not freedom that's
forcing someone to make a choice that's horrid either way you go,
if gods true choice is: choose to follow me and be rewarded by knowing
for eternity that your loved ones who chose the other option are in hell
suffering for all eternity then well he is simply immoral. the punishment of
heaven would be as burdensome in many ways as that of hell. the only
true choice god gives you is either feel pain forever or feel heartache forever.
