What?? I think Anubis is just a statue god in the Egypt(no offense in that :) ). Our GOD is one of the forgiving ones I think even the most forgiving.


FUCK YOU!

Also, The christian god is so contradictory that it is quite difficult to say one way or another. Combine that with the fact the bible was written a long time ago. So the things god "said" to people back then may have been revolutionary and enlightening to the people of the time, but it's quite archaic and barbaric now.

I fail to see why people still rely on the bible in general when there is so much more relevant spiritual and philosophical material out there these days.

You just disproved the bible.


Meh, the bible does seems fake to me. What kind of god brings someone to a place were they must be tortured for eternity. Seems weird right?

oh yeah he force us to love him, "you love me or you gone to hell"

No he does not force you ,it doesn't matter,as long as you are a good or a loving person.For example, the story of the Good Samaritan,the people who were supposed to be the good people ignoredthe half dead man who got beaten by robbers,but people expect a Samaritan to be a bad person,but The Samaritan helped the injured man.

take it this way :
you use flash to create a ragdoll...you created it...its yours...you can do what ever you want to it,throw it,smash it,shrink it...no one can blame you

we are gods ragdolls , except that we feel and think...you should be thankful that he didnt put us all in hell...although no one should blame him if he did !

Your analogy falls flat on its face, because humans are not inanimate objects like rag dolls are.
If I would create something that can feel, and then I would punish it for the faults that I gave it, that would make me morally reprehensible. Why does this not apply to a god?

With power, comes responsibility.

A god has no right to be cruel to his subjects. The heaven/hell system reminds me of the system that mafia has for controlling their areas.
The mafia boss offers "protection" to a shop owner for a weekly fee. If he doesn't accept the offer, he knows he's fucked. Should the shop owner be thankful for not getting his legs broken by the mafia boss right away? No. I don't think so.

Lol that quote is way older than the spider-man franchise. Spider-man has nothing to do with this debate. Going by your moral standards, if I get power out of nowhere, that makes me morally justified to torture people with it? To cause harm? That's absurd.

God is responsible for his subjects just as much as a parent is responsible of their children.
