For the most part I dont mind religion. Im not religious my self but I dont hate religion. The reason why Im not religious is the idea of hell. The prodestant view of hell that is that if you dont repent of your sins and give your heart to Jesus then you will suffer in the fiery pits for eternity.
Now what about babys or mentely handicaped people they cant comprehend salvation. What about people in some isolated jungle village who have never heard of christianity they can just go suck shit I suppose. Also what good is there in having people suffer immeasurable misery for eternity why doesnt God just destroy there souls so that they never experience anything?
Misery on earth and having God exist at the same time I can grasp that misery on earth is because of humans God just has to not interfere, but if he sends people to hell he has direct responsibility for that.
Anyway thats why Im not religious, counter arguements welcome make me unconfortable.
