Well, this needs me to say nothing at all...your own awful words speak loud and clear....

But you did say something, so what is your point? Guess you just thought you should be a judgemental buttinski and admonish me? Why don't YOU play like a nice mom and try having a reasonable conversation with balrog666 while he bashes your beliefs? I might hang around to watch that.

You seem to feel that you can figure out who is going to go to Hell, and what is more, you will laugh about it...this is what you stated...

First of all, you have no idea where anyone else is going to go, and secondly, the fact that you delight when someone may be going to Hell is just plain awful...

Hang around all you want...its FR, you can hang around on any thread that you want...

I find this kind of shocking and amazing. Do you think you can just do whatever you like whenever you like even though you know it is wrong and then later say, "Sorry," to God and it is all better? If that's really the way you think, I'm doubtful of the intensity of your devotion. I'll refer you to Romans 6, here's the first little bit:

What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? By no means! We died to sin; how can we live in it any longer? . . . In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires. Do not offer the parts of your body to sin, as instruments of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God, as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer the parts of your body to him as instruments of righteousness. For sin shall not be your master, because you are not under law, but under grace.

Paul didn't say, "Well, I'll just ask for forgiveness later." He exclaimed, "What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death?"

...while he bashes your beliefs?

You know, I don't mind when people bash my beliefs (it happens all the time on these threads). Usually I ignore them. Once in awhile, though, I'll post an argument in support of my position. At no time, however, did I say that I would gleefully look forward to seeing an opponent burn in Hell. First off, where he or she ends up is not my decision, and I wouldn't think to second-guess the Almighty. Secondly, such thoughts smack of schadenfreude, which to me is the definition of evil ("causing harm to others for enjoyment, or deriving pleasure from another's pain").

You really might want to think long and hard on this one.
