Apologetics 301 Guidelines
If you think this is the area where you tell everyone you are sorry for eating their lunch out of the fridge, it probably isn't the place for you
This forum is open discussion between atheists and all theists to defend and debate their views on religion or non-religion. Please respect that this is a Christian-owned forum and refrain from gratuitous blasphemy. VERY wide leeway is given in range of expression and allowable behavior as compared to other areas of the forum, and moderation is not overly involved unless necessary. Please keep this in mind. Atheists who wish to interact with theists in a way that does not seek to undermine theistic faith may participate in the World Religions Department. Non-debate question and answers and mild and less confrontational discussions can take place in General Theistics.
Forum Rules: Here

"Heaven is spread across the face of the earth, but men don't see it."The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Originally posted by KingsGambit View PostI really have a problem with that since it's nowhere mentioned in the Bible. I think people hold to it for emotional reasons (not wanting to envision babies in hell). People are certainly awfully dogmatic about it for something nowhere mentioned in Scripture. Since I'm an annihilationist, I don't have a problem with holding to the idea that only those who accept Christ get eternal life, because I don't have to deal with the idea of babies being eternally tormented."The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe. I did try to found a heresy of my own; and when I had put the last touches to it, I discovered that it was orthodoxy."
GK Chesterton; Orthodoxy

Wow, you really do live in a fantasy world don't you Lilpix. Having a concept of innocence, which btw, we adults do not lack, is not the same thing as being innocent, and little kids are not honest at all, and they are as gullible as you are, which is obviously very gullible.Last edited by JimL; 05-04-2018, 09:47 AM.
