Good discussion. But we're off thread topic. Sorry if I did that. I think there's a thread out here, either on the upper or lower, concerning hell. And I think it's got many things to say about it from the Bible, looking into the Greek words.
I get that we like hell fire.
I was laying on my couch, working remotely on a computer, in my underwear, when I heard a car pull up.
I looked and 3 men in suits got out of the car. I knew one of them. He was a frequent visitor from the JW's. I've given him a hard time many times, so he was bringing a couple of big guns.
When they got to the porch, I busted out the door, still in my underwear. I said, "y'all take the fun out of everything. You don't believe in hell ... so I can't tell you to go to hell. All I can tell you is, go be nothing."
And they liked it. We laughed. The truth is, if there was nothing about it in the Bible we'd have to invent hell. We have to be able to tell people "Go to hell."
And where else can we condemn the dirty nasty gays+?
