“The amazing thing isn’t that there’s only one way to salvation. the amazing thing is that God made a way at all.”—James MacDonald

To: Mr. Silverback
(Calvin and Knox)...taught the doctrine that God had a right to damn us because he made us. That is just the reason that he has not a right to damn us.

There is some dust. Unconscious dust! What right has God to change that unconscious dust into a human being, when he knows that human being will sin; when he knows that human being will suffer eternal agony? Why not leave him in the unconscious dust? What right has an infinite God to add to the sum of human agony?

Suppose I knew that I could change that piece of furniture into a living, sentient human being, and I knew that that being would suffer untold agony forever. If I did it, I would be a fiend.

- Robert G. Ingersoll
