LG - “If you are right and your God condemns me to an eternity of hellfire, I will march proudly into that lake knowing in my heart that I followed a path of truth.”

Gordon - Lots of folks didn’t believe Hitler was evil... that is until they were rounded up and placed in the ovens. I don’t think any of them were “marching proudly into that (fire) knowing in their heart they followed a path of truth.”

Wow! It never even occurred to me to compare God with Hitler. You young earthers never fail to amaze me.

What a genius... Darwin would be proud. You’re absolutely incapable of following logic. Makes you a great priest for your faith.

Actually, GG makes a good point. Many of the Jews being marched off to the ovens refused to believe what Hitler had planned for them right up to the moment of their death. Now I think we can all agree that Hitler was evil. His hatred towards Jews, Christians, and the God of the Bible is proof enough of that. But what about when someone good says they are going to punish evil? For instance, what if the Allies told Stalin’s USSR that we were going to hunt him and every single one of his Communist henchmen down unless they surrendered by such and such date? Let’s say they refused to surrender, so we followed through on what they thought was an idle threat, but what instead turned out to be a promise. There might be a few who marched “proudly to their deaths,” but I can assure you that the vast majority would react in absolute horror once they realized that it was too late to change their fate. And given what we know about the horrors of Communism, I think we can all agree that such a policy would have been unquestionably for the good.
