How do you figure that? That it doesn't conform to the image of God any longer doesn't mean it ceases to exist.
It doesn't mean that it has to continue existing either.
We're good (in so far as the image of God in which we are made, influences our actions). We're also evil (in so far as the image of God in which we are made, doesn't influence our actions). Remove the image of God bit and you're left with...?
So any 'good' atheists are only doing so by will of God?
So any 'bad' Christians actually aren't such?
Why can't God just allow us to cease existing? You have not answered this iano. Only a sadistic and cruel god would allow people to suffer when it is not necessary. The only way I can see out of this conclusion would be if God allowed those in your 'hell' to repent. (In that case, what would the point of being a Christian be, though? :confused
