What I mean is that Christianity is about the fact that Jesus died on a cross as an atoniing sacrifice to pay the penalty for my sin in order to appease the wrath of an angry God. If we trust in Jesus, we will be with God in heaven someday.
Why on earth would you want to be with an angry wrathful God???
angry is a relative term and everybody knows that. its not reasonable to just back into a parking space leaving the clunker thinking aspects in The Philosophy of Christianity has been debunked.
There seem to be significant enough translation difficulties with your posts that avoiding using metaphors or figurative speech might enhance their understandability. I assume you are trying to defend wanting to be with a God who would REQUIRE a horrendous scourging and crucifixion of an innocent human being as a blood sacrifice to appease His vengeance, anger and so-called justice!!! Sorry . . . I am unable to accept such a God as worthy of association or worship, period.

Oh good thanks I edited my entry to be clearer.
The early writers would have assumed the reader wouldn't need a full explanation with things to do with
god putting the issues of person-hood which are wrong, on ignore. ( so the quick handy word angry is used, people can quickly see the suggestion.
This has to do with soul , noticed your theory . Its interesting and gota go for now, its been a busy one with the snowfall.
Atheists while they don't believe in a spiritual being has to abide by laws and rules of this Earth or they go to prison or pay a fine as would anyone else. Laws govern things here on this planet and we have generation of families who instill values in their children to do right. so yea I would say yea there would be non-believers who are ethical as anyone, however that is from an earthly perspective as they will be shut off from Heaven if they do not accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
