What is up with this?

If God is almighty and so wise then why would he supposedly burn all the people in hell that are gay or have a different belief? It is basically sayng that God enternaly punishes anyone that does not live life in exact rules and in an exact way. Basically God would enternally punish any person who is different.

  • I am not saying this to pick on any religious beliefs
  • I Do not want to start fights
  • I just want oppinions on this issue
Answer #1

It is difficult to understand the reasons God does things because we normally view him as one of us and not as a different being all to himself. Do you expect people in Peru to pay into the USA social security? Do you expect OPEC to pay our fuel tax? Then why does God have to live and think the way we do? If the probe on Mars found life would we say to bring it here to earth and but it in a fish bowl, no. Then why do we wish to do it to God? You can’t view God in human terms. God is God. He told us what was right and what was wrong. “WE” decide in what direction we will go and then complain about the outcome, why? Think of it a little bit like a job. The Boss said do a good job and you get paid, do a bad job and you are out in the street. How is the Boss wrong for firing me when I do a bad job? By doing a bad job we are asking to be fired. The standard is set the choice is yours, but don’t be surprised by the outcome of your actions.

Sorry if I stepped on some toes.

Answer #2

GOD LOVES US ALL AND HE WANTS ALL OF US TO MAKE IT TO HEAVEN THE REASON THE GAYS AND NONBELEIVERS GO TO HELL IS BECAUSE THEY KNOW BETTER AND IF GOD HAS GIVEN ANYBODY THE CHANCE TO HEAR ABOUT JESUS CHRIST THAN THEY HAVE NO EXCUSE!!!

Answer #3

There’s a world of difference between what an actual god would do, and what people claim a god will do.

Old books written in an age where there was no distinction between reality and fantasy are best ignored as the ramblings of madmen.

Answer #4

Nothing to do with ‘how you live your life’ - it’s whether or not you choose to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior - He is ‘THE WAY’ to Heaven…Take care !!

Answer #5

Yes, most religions believe that their god will doom unbelievers - or those that don’t adhere to their strict moral code - to eternal torment. The reason why is simple: Religions that don’t invoke the fear of punishment for nonbelievers don’t get adherents, and so don’t stick around.

Ironically, this is more or less an evolutionary view of religion.

Answer #6

according to the bible, almost everything is a sin and according to “god” if your not one of them (beleivers) theyll either try to change you, or say your just going to go to hell …very rare is it that a person who beleives in god will also respect other peoples beleifs… without shoving there religion down there throat

Answer #7

because people were taught that god is this real selfish guy that gave you all the rules to life and if you don’t do them you will burn in hell…but my truth is…God is love, so he wouldn’t do that to us…with the decitions we make everyday we create our own hell…and our life in earth and the things we do will make our spirituality grow…or viseversa. If you are one sucky mean person this life..then when yu die you will create your own hell…and you won’t b able to join god and the other postive vibes…: )…that’s in what I believe…even though it sounds crazy..I believe its true
