I will continue to pay you the courtesy of taking you at your word with regard to your beliefs past and present. You don't have to prove to me that you were a Christian in the past or that you really are a Christian in the present. You describe yourself; I presume you are telling the truth. This is basic common decency, KellyJay.
honesty, I doubt your sincerity, and your authenticity when asking questions. I'm being
honest with you, and I don't think you have been with me, I prefer honesty over your so
called courtesy while you insult me off and on.

Your 3 step logical progression is not missed by Christians. In fact it's almost as much a head-scratcher for us as it is you. I say almost because while you see no logic at all in an atheist blaming God, we see acknowledge the seeming logical contradiction. But we also see it as a natural, subconscious reaction sparked by resentment; resentment becau ...[text shortened]... d[/i] exist--exactly as described in the bible--causing bitterness, resentment, the whole gamut.
Your God is not real for me, in either my conscious thought or in the recesses of my subconscious. In this kind of interaction between theist and atheist the elephant in the room is not 'atheist resentment or blame' but the 'theist requirement' (either conscious or subconsciously) for the atheist to be affected in some deep way by the absence of God in their life.
If this is not the case sir, should I also feel blame and resentment towards the many gods of Hinduism? If not, why your God in particular when I disbelieve in all proposed deities?
(I advise modifying your Opening if you want to make it to the Endgame).
-Removed-"little weasel" I don't know what you believe unless you tell me. Someone kick your dog?
This OP is all about what? The central point of this is, does the Bible teach an eternal Hell
people are going to be in or not. If is just what does KellyJay believe, I'll tell you and you
can compare that to what you believe. It will get you no where since my beliefs and yours
will not change if Hell is there and people are going to be thrown into it or not. So give
the scriptures that support your view, or explain those that do away if possible. Attempting
to make me the bad guy just shows how weak your position really is, and the fact you
keep bringing up over and over through the years shows me anyway you know the truth
and it is eating away at you.
