FWIW, life is richer on this side of the debate.

I can't imagine how. If I believed as you do, I'd have to believe that God created people for the sole purpose to throw them into Hell.

That is neither just nor merciful, and God is the epitome of both Justice and Mercy.

Do men go to hell? Is God powerless to prevent it? Does God know from the beginning who will believe and be saved and who will not?

And yet He makes both kinds of people anyway, knowing exactly where each person ends up.

Scripture tells us mercy triumphs over justice. Do you see that happening for everyone?
