    Christians: is there a hell?

    LOL! No need to wonder about this, Sgt. Pepper. Having been an atheist for many years, and having been the target of various proselytizers, I know* it doesn’t work. No, I really just wondered what Alien826 thought was ‘good’ about Heaven. I hope that’s alright with you, Sgt.Pepper...

    "THE LORD'S DAY IS THE SABBATH DAY NOT SUNDAY ACCORDING TO SCRIPTURES

    LOL! Here it is! The post I knew was coming. This is exactly how you run away from every ‘discussion’ I have had with you, SZ. Here you run (in fact you race) from the questions I put to you in the previous post; here they are again, just in case you want to show that you are not, as usual...

    Christians: is there a hell?

    Is every Christian who shows up on RF an ‘everyday Christian’, in your opinion, ChristineM? If so, is every one of them smug and pious? You are? I suppose it’s just that I know a bit about epistemology and the various types of ‘knowing’.

    Christians: is there a hell?

    Do you think it is a good place?

    "THE LORD'S DAY IS THE SABBATH DAY NOT SUNDAY ACCORDING TO SCRIPTURES

    Exactly! Your reasoning was inadequate. It did not support your claim. And this is exactly what I am saying, SZ. Your reasoning is incorrect for your conclusion.

    I don’t believe this! You feel attacked by an emoji? What a fragile sense of self you must have, SZ! Everyone who ever uses a :rolleyes: is being rude? Really?! :rolleyes: means, to most people, “What a silly thing to say!”.

    "THE LORD'S DAY IS THE SABBATH DAY NOT SUNDAY ACCORDING TO SCRIPTURES

    Please provide… 1. Your definition of the word ‘rude’. 2. Evidence of your claim that I was rude for an extremely extended period of time. Why do you assume that I think what you think I think? :cool: (not an attack – honest!)

    "THE LORD'S DAY IS THE SABBATH DAY NOT SUNDAY ACCORDING TO SCRIPTURES

    Continually rude – positive claim. Let’s see some evidence for a change. Evidence of this ‘continual rudeness’, SZ? SZ, please read slowly and carefully: No one ran away from you. No one is afraid of you. No one is attacking you (with emojis or with anything else} :rolleyes: (Just means...

    Christians: is there a hell?

    And I am even more surprised that you don’t know the difference between a statement of fact and a statement of belief. Ah! Typical Christians, eh? You mean the type of Christian beloved of atheists. ;)

    Christians: is there a hell?

    I believe that hell is being without/outwith God. I don't believe that any one of us, while we are alive, whatever our belief or lack of belief, have ever, for one second, been without/outwith God. I believe that those of us who love God will never be without Him.

    Christians: is there a hell?

    If there are smug pious people saying "i told you so", it is not Heaven. "To enter heaven is to become more human than you ever succeeded in being on earth; to enter hell is to be banished from humanity. What is cast (or casts itself) into hell is not a man: it is 'remains.'" C. S. Lewis

    Christians: is there a hell?

    You're happy about going to Heaven? Why ?

    "THE LORD'S DAY IS THE SABBATH DAY NOT SUNDAY ACCORDING TO SCRIPTURES

    Thanks for this, 3rdAngel. I am of the opinion that SZ's definition of rudeness is not the same as most people's. I hope you had a Christmas filled with the joy and the peace of Christ. "All the Christmas presents in the world are worth nothing without the presence of Christ."

    "THE LORD'S DAY IS THE SABBATH DAY NOT SUNDAY ACCORDING TO SCRIPTURES

    Sorry, won’t work. Here’s why… 1. I am not continually rude 2. Even if I were continually rude, that is not evidence that I believe it is a bad idea to be polite. Also, as I’ve said before, I do not take instruction on politeness from you. That would be ridiculous. After this little exchange...

    "THE LORD'S DAY IS THE SABBATH DAY NOT SUNDAY ACCORDING TO SCRIPTURES

    SZ, We use smileys because they are available, in this forum, to express our reactions. Some of your statements cause me to mentally roll my eyes because they are irrational (your statements, not my eyes. :D). I hope you’re not considering reporting me for abusing a smiley, SZ. :eek: You do...

    "THE LORD'S DAY IS THE SABBATH DAY NOT SUNDAY ACCORDING TO SCRIPTURES

    I disagree. Evidence is not needed in certain circumstances, SZ. For example: Blue is a color. All living Scottish people have brains. A bachelor is an unmarried man

    "THE LORD'S DAY IS THE SABBATH DAY NOT SUNDAY ACCORDING TO SCRIPTURES

    Yes, I have noticed that people that (sic) are constantly losing an argument quite often use rudeness because the alternative is to admit that one is wrong. But you know, SZ, even though you have been losing from the start here, it’s OK to be wrong. Acknowledging our deficiencies is a grown-up...

    "THE LORD'S DAY IS THE SABBATH DAY NOT SUNDAY ACCORDING TO SCRIPTURES

    So, if I say something is obviously the case, it is not the case. Another positive statement, SZ. Over to you…

    "THE LORD'S DAY IS THE SABBATH DAY NOT SUNDAY ACCORDING TO SCRIPTURES

    I abused a smiley? How? Don't try to ignore your past behavior, SZ. Just learn from it and move on.

    "THE LORD'S DAY IS THE SABBATH DAY NOT SUNDAY ACCORDING TO SCRIPTURES

    SZ, this is really simple. You are accusing me of believing it is a bad idea to be polite. But you have no evidence that I believe it is a bad idea to be polite. You are assuming that I believe it is a bad idea to be polite. Goodness me, SZ! This ought not to be difficult to understand.
