[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems pretty obvious, if you accept the Christian God, that he created us in part to see some of us go to hell, thanks to his gift of free will.

I mean, why create hell if no one would be there?  And why make it so hard for a lot of the people he created to even know about him.

Many people, over 1000's of years, have lived in countries that have had no or limited access to information about how his son died for our sins.  In other countries like the US, even dedicated proselytizers can't convince all the people about the need to believe.

And here we are in the 21st century when more and more people are literate and have incredible access to information and instead of more people believing in Him, more people are dropping their beliefs to become "spiritual but not religious" or not religious, period.

It sure sounds like he's lost interest in us.[/quote]

Plenty of atheists swear they will not, cannot, be swayed to accept God. They have come to their own conclusions. So what if hell is more of a nonexistence after this lifetime. What would be so bad about that for them? I don't think hell is fire for eternity. I think few people here do.[/quote]

Atheists expect non-existence after death -- just as we - all of us-- had non-existence before life.  Do you think christian believers have eternal life and atheists just fade away?

if so, how do you know that?[/quote]

Personally I think atheists get the afterlife they expect - a version of nothingness. [/quote]
