This is a great read and thank you Unfundamentalist Christians for sharing. It is enlightening and funny at the same time. Here is a highlight: God gave us free will so we would love Him by choice and not out of fear. He hates the sin but loves the sinner. However, sin cannot live in Heaven. A person who loves to sin would not be happy there and there would be no harmony. So God will have to destroy those who have not chosen to love and follow Jesus. So the reasoning there is this: We are free to choose not to love God, but if that’s the choice we make God will destroy us. That’s like a waiter saying, “For lunch today you have a choice: a grilled cheese sandwich with a bowl of tomato soup, or a bucket of acid poured on your face. Shall I give you a moment?” The “choice” offered by the reader’s version of the Christian God is no choice at all. “Love me or I’ll light you on fire forever” is … the world’s worst Hallmark card. Any God who would say that—let alone do that—can be nothing but a sadistic, megalomania sociopath. At the very least it’s safe to say that such a God is immoral.
