This thread is based on a conversation that came up in the shoutbox earlier. I'm not including the entire conversation, but I've tried to avoid taking anything out of context. Ben and ke7ejx can correct me as they see fit.

And in response to ke's comments about the law:
Is there such a thing as the lesser of two evils? Does God prioritize evils? Is there a binary standard which all fail, and a separate gradient by which people are punished? I think the answer is no to all of these questions. Ben and ke clearly disagree. What are your thoughts?
For the record, I have requested and been granted permission to create this thread. My participation in this thread will be strictly under the framework that Christianity is true. If I stray from that, please correct me.
