Again, why do you think the moderator deleted your statement about me?

I wouldn't even want to try to "hide the hate" I have for ET.
My hate is a great motivator for persitantly guiding people to consider a different point of view like
ABSOLUTE ASSURANCE IN JESUS CHRIST
Absolute Assurance

Due to "the luck of the draw," so to speak, millions of Muslims children are taught that non-Muslims are going to suffer forever in hell.
Quote from Islamic Belief about the Afterlife
"Non-Muslims (kafir), however, will be punished eternally. The suffering is both physical and spiritual."
The Afterlife in Islam - ReligionFacts

So most Muslims, (due to the luck of the draw so to speak), live out their life and die, clinging to their faithfulness to believing and obeying the Koran in the hope of salvation from “hell” in the afterlife.

And, due to "the luck of the draw," so to speak, millions of Christian children are taught that non-Christians are going to suffer forever in hell.

I think the whole dichotomy is ridiculously absurd!!!

Quite frankly, rather than believe in an ET god, I would rather live out my life trying to treat others the same way that I would like to be treated by them, and hope for the best in the afterlife, than to put my trust in a book that says that my Creator is going to sustain anyone alive in an inescapable state of everlasting suffering forever. I’m sure there are many agnostics who are able to do just that.

And that is what I would have done too had I not been terrorized into trying to believe in ET by the threats of the people I counted on to tell me the truth, my parents, pastors, SS teachers, and my former ET friends.

You'd have to ask the moderator. Sometimes I wonder about the deletions too, but it doesn't bother me too much, because I know they do what they think is best.

I think it's amazing that you can't figure out why what you said about me was deleted by the moderator!
What you said about me doesn't bother you just like ET doesn't bother you.
AMAZING!!!

WILL JESUS LET ANYONE SUFFER FOREVER?

NO!

I don't believe in Hell. IMO, it's a misunderstanding of what Jesus actually taught. I came to this conclusion just because to me, eternal Hell and an all-loving God are not compatible beliefs, it's pretty obvious. If Hell exists than God is not all that nice after all.

What I can't figure out is why your comment about my faith being "blasphemy" was not deleted. But then again, what's the point of wasting so much time wondering about why something was, and something else was not deleted?

Let it go papito.

He is nice enough to offer you a way to eternal life.

Why does Hell even have to fit in if God is so nice?

The idea that God would sustain anyone alive in an inescapable state of everlasting suffering forever in fact IS blasphemy against the character of God.

That is why my comment was not deleted.

Jesus preached about the concequence of rejection of God, but He stressed the point that He was here to save those who believed in Him.
