‘Eternal suffering’ is nonsensical

The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

And you think that quoting Psalms 14:1 somehow substantiates you calling me a "fool" in a discussion about differing beliefs?

point-blank

Edit: To me the Bible is the truth, and the shoe fits you very well.

The show fits well? What "abominable works" are you saying I have done?

It'd be interesting if you can tell me where I have ever once said "There is no God" in any discussion on this forum in the last 10 years.

you know for a fact that God doesn't exist

Which of my posts are you referring to? In which post do you think I said this?

How would I know FMF?

Have you not many times stated you're a non believer?

So on what basis are you saying "the shoe fits"/I "have done abominable works" if you now say, when questioned about it, that you do not know?

It's a reference to Christianity - and other retail religions. I have most certainly never said that I believe there is no god or gods. When it comes to the particular god figures (there seems to be more than one, in terms of their essential nature) that Christians claim have revealed themselves to them, I am a non-believer. I use it interchangeably with non-Christian. It's the specific ideology/theology that you propagate that I lack belief in. I've never said "There is no God".

Right - its clearing up a bit for me now.
Do you believe in the Christian God, Jesus Christ the Son and the Holy Spirit?

I am not a Christian. Did you not glean that from the post you were replying to? You seem to be being disingenuous yet again. You read my post, and you're asking me - nevertheless - if I am a Christian?

Then I rest my case: Psalms 14:1.

Obviously from a Christian point of view.

Here's what Psalms 14:1 actually says: "They [i.e. non-Jews] are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good."

What 'case' is it you think you have made about these things with regard to me?
