I'm always ready to learn.

Yes, that sounds more appealing than the other two options.

Permanent death or permanent torture?

I rest my case.

What is everlasting destruction? Doesn't sound like an abrupt end to me... I've been told that Paul meant eternal punishment by some Christians and meant a second death by others.... Which is it? It's quite hard to make the distinction from Colossians.

Paul didn't know Jesus, correct me if I'm wrong but there's no evidence that their paths crossed in Jesus' lifetime. Paul only saw Jesus after his death in a vision and became a self proclaimed apostle.

Although he didn't use the words Gehenna or Hades, some theologians argue that Paul's descriptions of "wrath", "vengeance," and being shut out from the presence of God effectively describe the same ultimate reality of damnation and conscious punishment, even if he used different vocabulary...

Do you think that I just haven't bothered to try? I used to pray, I've asked for signs, I attended church.... In the end it just felt like talking to myself, I got the feeling that it was me that was the problem, I was doing something wrong... Not getting anywhere because of me not God. You are...

B.) Is incorrect for me. I can't speak for all atheists, but I have never claimed anything about the existence of a God. I have said that I don't believe in any of the God's that I've read or heard about, there is a big difference. As for having the upper hand, I don't really know what you mean...

Please explain, how does a none belief in something require faith?

I was raised as a Christian and attended Church of England schools, I was a regular at Sunday school in my youth and enjoyed being a part of that. My journey into none belief started when I stopped listening to what I was told, and read the Bible from front to back. The old testament is very...

So where would you like to start?

There is some kind of intelligence behind them. The complexity is astonishing.

I'm not dismissing the conclusion, I can see that the laws of mathematics are not man made... I just don't see the connection to the Christian God.

The video wasn't convincing to me. Things in the abstract world of mathematics that look similar to things in the physical universe are in no way evidence of the Christian God. Maybe if the things in the abstract looked like Jesus on the cross, I'd give it more thought. Buddhabrot resembles...

Which God?

I'll watch tomorrow, it's getting late and my wife is giving me the side eye.
