From the thread
The Space Alien Thing
This paragraph I wrote a long time ago. It gave Divegeester the boldness to portray repeatedly that I push the Star Trek- nization of the Bible because I wrote "other worlds" here.
The saved will glorify God with their endless happiness. But the lost will glorify Him with their endless woe. They will be hung out in chains of punishment as an example to deter other worlds. That punishment is designed to deter others from like guilt is evidenced so often in the Bible.
Anyone reading through that thread please tell me where Divegeeter answered these questions about my "strange" beliefs ?
Which is strange?
1.) The possibility that "other worlds" might exist when God creates a new heaven and a new earth ?
Is that a strange belief, that possibly such might occur in eternity future ?
2.) That the punished would be confined in some way, which confinement might be discribed in terms of "chains of punishment" ?
Is that idea strange ?
3.) The at that time ancient past failed revolt against God may serve as a testimony to the folly of rebellion against God.
is THAT idea strange ?
Reply with a number ... 1 or 2 or 3 or all, or some combination.
And this time a second question to you.
Even if one or more concepts seem "strange" to you, does "strangeness" have to mean invalidity ? [quote]
Below this Divegeester protests.
[quote] No one has ever, not once mentioned Science fiction, it is you trying bring the counter argument against you into mockery. The argument against you is I believe quite serious. It's about error, gross error, it's about plagiarism and it's about your vainity in not being able to apologise for calling me a liar for initially claiming you came out with all this nonsense.
So, what kind of beings are "those on other worlds" who are witnessing the eternal torture of billions as a warning to them?
Of course I had given him an opportunity to show what was strange.

Given the opportunity I don't see where he ever showed that something I didn't insist on was all that strange even if the possibility was implied.
It was business as usual ... "sonship's strange beliefs".
But he couldn't pinpoint exactly where the "strangeness" was when biblical support is certainly there.
But you see, the accusation is just too good - sonship's really strange, bizarre, wacko beliefs.
But how come he couldn't prove - no biblical support existed for such beliefs ? It boils down to Divegeester finding what repulses him as "strange".

Your 5th paragraph, 22nd Oct 2014
Verbatim quote of sonship:
"But the lost will glorify Him with their endless woe. They will be hung out in chains of punishment as an example to deter other worlds."
The issue to me is not whether he verbatim ever used the same words. Rather it is after 10/22/2014 how many times did Dive fail to identify "strangeness" as related to the words of the Bible and yet desire to assert again and again, brute force style, that I taught something "strange".
After my post Dive wrote this:
"The saved will glorify God with their endless happiness. But the lost will glorify Him with their endless woe. They will be hung out in chains of punishment as an example to deter other worlds."
I take back what I said earlier; you are a total of the rails fruitcake.
How come then he couldn't demonstrate what was totally off the rails about my three questions put to him latter?
Dive writes to Grumpy Bobby:
I think sonship's recent personal insights are a revelation into the reality of his bizarre perspective of personal forgiveness and the purpose of eternal suffering.
Clearly he believes that there are observers on "other worlds" who will also be witnessing this eternal burning of billions of people. Who these being are, where they are and how they will observe this holocaust level warning will no doubt be revealed by him at some point.
Did he ever prove that the thought of "other worlds" when God creates a new heaven and a new earth is completely out of the question totally "strange" ? Not that I know of.
I am pretty sure that after 10/22/2014 I explained to him that I was not insisting that I knew there were beings on other planets now or in the future.
Regardless, the three questions were his opportunity to show some outlandish unbiblical concept I was teaching. Looks to me like he ignored the invitation.
Did he continue after 10/22/2014 to push a reminder to everyone of sonship's "strange" teachings? Yes.
