Why do you lave out judgment, wrath and hell?

Be honest, don't care either way because none of it is going to happen, but that aside, it's more of a comment on the psychology of certain Christians who seem take at some level some sort of odd pleasure in the idea that the immoral (usually defined primarily in terms of sexual behavior) are going to burn in hell forever. It's like the Adelphia Cable executives who wouldn't carry porn channels for morality reasons but saw no problem with embezzlement and fraud.

No one takes pleasure in the fact that unrepentent sinners will live forever in hell. Maybe that is the way you want to envision Christians so you can make your own self appear to be more moral and self righteous, but it is not a reality that God fearing Christians who understand the horrors of hell would take pleasure in anyone going there. On the contrary, we know how horrible it will be and desire to warn and to offer the Gospel so it may possibly be avoided.
