Do you think that love and punishment are mutually exclusive ?
IE. If a person loves then that one cannot punish.
If a person punishes then that one cannot love.
You do whatever you think you need to do.
As for me, one of the things I have done is decided that with God eternal love does not mean eternal punishment cannot exist. And conv ...[text shortened]... ver could possess these two attributes together - an ultimate love and an ultimate chastizement.
And I get that you love poring over the mythology, insisting that it's too amazing to have been written by humans etc. etc. blah blah. And you say it as if you being amazed by it (and sanctified by your own enthusiasm) is somehow "evidence" of something pertaining to the absolutely ghastly, incoherent ideology that you propagate, when it is only "evidence" of what kind of darkness animates you. And your earnestness - for all the buckets full you stack up in your arid self-anointed way - does not lend it any weight, sonship.
Ha ha, here you are referring euphemistically to the most incomprehensibly hideous and utterly pointless violence ever dreamed up by homo sapiens as "chastisement". I've explained to you time and time again, the "chastisement" you like to dub "perfect justice" just comes across as a kind of hyper-Orwellian vision of darkness and dystopia.
I couldn't give two hoots what la di da lovey dovey 'I am immortal', 'get out of gaol', 'I am forgiven' cards you deal yourself and lay on top of the essential stupendous 'coercion' that lies at its very core. The "chastisement" you claim is "perfect justice" simply robs you of a moral compass in my view.
