WOTM: An All-Loving God Who Sends People To Hell, Part II
Okay, I have a confession. I went on a bit of a rant in this one. I absolutely hate the idea of holiness — for reasons you'll hear in this video. And something Mike said set me off — basically, about not paying attention to our own moral intuitions, instead preferring God's commands which must be followed regardless, and never questioned. I really do think it's one of the worst ideas in human history... holiness. Give the vid a look and let me know if you agree.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you! Enjoy! B

Does Christianity represent the ultimate in selfishness? Who really cares for the lost… the billions born into the wrong time or geographical culture who would never hear the gospel? Thems the breaks! Aren’t THEY sinners who are getting God’s justice anyway?… the punishment THEY deserve for rejecting “general revelation”. You know, THEY didn’t recognize Yahweh when looking at trees. So obvious. THEY are getting the justice THEY deserve. How easily does this roll off the tongues of theists? THEY deserved to be * Drowned in a flood * Killed by fire and brimstone * Killed because they were someone’s firstborn * Punished for being the great-grandchildren of someone * Killed for mocking a prophet * Killed for being the babies of Canaan THEM, but not us. Could it be that this is nothing more than tribalism? God decided in an eternity past to put us in heaven, and our family in heaven too. Our good luck. Them? Well, thems the breaks! Winger blathers on about God’s righteous judgment of THOSE OTHER PEOPLE, but not Mike himself. How convenient! WE are in. THEY are out. Does anything else matter?
We are in. They are out... is about as tribal as it gets!
Mike always looks like he's about to cry.... and not for joy 😒
A Mason can explain why things are the way they are with the wall. God does not seem to do so. Just *assuming* that the mason is right is exceedingly dangerous, just as assuming that god exists and is right. Intelligent thought demands some level of doubt and a need for some level of explanation.
Yeah, there’s so much wrong with that analogy that I cut for time. I was just thinking I need to make a whole ‘nother video just on that stupid wall analogy. Stay tuned and tubed!
When people say that god, their god, is beyond our understanding, I have to ask "How do you know that?"
That’s my question for anyone who says anything about God. God is a zero information proposition.
Yeah, sorry Mikey, but we're judging YOU, not some invisible sky-daddy to whom you're passing the buck. What a dodge! Absolutely… moral cowardice.
Wow these saints sound eerily similar to Trump supporters.
