I am a Christian. And I find your speeches quite vile & venemous. The way you call Christians an abomination to God is likened to a certain Nazi dictator.. It's actually frightening to watch if we strip away the humorous light we've cast around such ridiculousness in order to digest it.
Faith is about a one on one relationship with God through His son, Jesus Christ, who was nailed upon the cross to die for every single human, even while they spat upon him and mocked him. "Father forgive them.. for they know not what they do."
My faith believes that faith without works is dead. And yet you are not saved by works alone. God calls us to love one another, to encourage and uplift one another for His name's sake. Christ died for you as well. It's pretty dark and dastardly that you go around spewing hate against Muslims and Christians.. billions of God's people. Which pretty much makes this whole thread null and void for me because I don't wish to argue with someone touting such dark ideology.
Another Christian with satanic morals and no faith. faith without facts is for fools. Here are a few facts for you.
I know that you have likely never looked at the immorality of your thinking on this, but do try. Please. Your moral soul is at stake.
On Jesus dying for you.
It takes quite an inflated ego to think a god would actually die for you, after condemning you unjustly in the first place.
You have swallowed a lie and don’t care how evil you make Jesus to keep your feel good get out of hell free card.
It is a lie, first and foremost because, like it or not, having another innocent person suffer or die for the wrongs you have done, --- so that you might escape responsibility for having done them, --- is immoral. To abdicate your personal responsibility for your actions or use a scapegoat is immoral.
You also have to ignore what Jesus, as a Jewish Rabbi, would have taught his people.
Ezekiel 18:20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.
Deuteronomy 24:16 (ESV) "Fathers shall not be put to death because of their children, nor shall children be put to death because of their fathers. Each one shall be put to death for his own sin.
Psa 49;7 None of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him:
There is no way that you would teach your children to use a scapegoat to escape their just punishments and here you are doing just that.
Jesus is just a smidge less immoral than his demiurge genocidal father, and here you are trying to put him as low in moral fibre as Yahweh.

On your faith of fools.
I am working on this new O.P., but have not decided if it is ready. You will get the gist of it though.
---------
Can Yahweh always do what he wills, or can people thwart him?
Scriptures seem conflicted on the answer.
They show an all-powerful god whose plan and will cannot be thwarted or derailed, while at the same time indicating that he cannot do his will and that people can derail his plan to save everyone.
2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
1 Timothy 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
Do you have faith?
If you do, you cannot believe in hell. You would not think god a loser by believing he saves us all, as his will indicates. Those scriptures say he has no need of a hell for us.
Do you see god as too incompetent to do his will of saving us all?
Or do you see god as a universalist god who does his will and saves all?
