Having just visited that website I have to say that it's the stupidest thing I have ever read on the net and that's saying something. The whole thing is just fabricated out of thin air and would be funny except for the fact that some people believe this juvenile trife.

the bible teaches that man cannot judge a mans soul to hell,he only promotes christians to spread the gospel of jesus christ,jesus himself called the religious elect hypocrites for their selfrighteous points of view on judging the poor and misled poeple at that time,As a christian I just encourage you all to read the story of creation,as well as the gospels of mathew ,mark,luke and john and develop your own opinions but remember life on earth is short and I think all people know deep down that our lifes didnt just happen by chance,even darwin found christ on his deathbed and renounced his own theory's, god will deal with every individual in his own way,but dont let selfrighteous people hinder you from knowing the lord.

What's offensive is not that they think that atheists are going to suffer unspeakable tortures for all eternity. What's offensive is that they think that atheists DESERVE to suffer unspeakable tortures for all eternity. And since their god is supposed to be JUST, they must think that. If a racist man tells a black man "all niggers deserve to die", shouldn't the black man be offended even if the racist fuck is not planning on killing anybody himself? What if a nazi tells a jew that all jews deserve to die? And death is not that bad compared with, let's say, ETERNAL FRIGGING TORTURE. Hate speach tends to end in hate actions. Christians that say that atheists will go to hell shouldn't be silenced, but neither should they be respected. I believe that it's the duty of every decent man to speak out against them, just as we should speak out against any other ilk of bigot.

Jesus did indeed warn us. However I have no idea who Jesus is; I've never met him; and his historical records do not say much about him at all. He could just as easily be a crazy man than a prophet. Why should I trust what a man said 2000 years ago? How do I know he is intelligent? These are all questions than need answers before I can do anything about them.

have you ever heeded the warning of someone who is more intelligent than you? Jesus warned us.

The last time someone told me this I stopped her for a correction to see if she was really saying that (she was a middle school student and I was her teacher). I asked her if she was saying I should or will go to hell. I further asked if she felt it was appropriate to tell people that they are going to hell. Clearly kids are learning intolerance at a very young age. When I asked her all this she kind of reacted with shame, knowing that this sort of thing is very mean and hurtful.

[...] I believe people can get offended by certain beliefs. I’ve written how I am offended when people tell me I’m going to Hell, not because to them it is “fact” (as Patrick Greene argues), but because they believe [...]

I don’t really get offended at being told I am going to hell. Instead, I feel sorry for the person who believes such things, because his or her view of the rest of humanity is warped. These people are victims.

Being told that one is going to hell is a very aggressive and offensive line. Fortunately no one told me such baloney on my face. Fortunately for me and for his/her smirky face.

considering that the very concept of “hell” and burning for an eternity for your sins is a lie, and in truth DOES NOT EXIST anywhere in the bible, I as a christian and bible student am offended by people who tell others they are going to hell.
