Re: Sounds strangly familiar
And by definition if God is the source all blessing any place totally free from him where those who want nothing to do with God, must be a hell, I would think.
​
As an atheist I am totally free of God. Why do I not notice this Hell you speak of? I mean, entirely nonchalant: look, a fleck of dust on my lapel. Why don't you notice my not noticing this Hell? What leads you to think it would be?

Re: Sounds strangly familiar
you must be deceiving yourself.
​
As it is such a simple and self consistent deception I shall content myself with it. Though, as I watch the professionally pious twist themselves in knots to explain the mundane instead of just saying "Opps!", I cannot help but think they are the creators of Hell.
