I love running into these people. Hell isn’t scriptural and it’s easy to bring the receipts. They are cultists, so you won’t change their mind, but they will never forget you or how you knew their fake religion better than they did. I always hope that a seed planted in their diseased minds eventually sprouts, but it’s still fun to give them a solid intellectual wallop.
I grew up in it, and I love when someone realizes that I know more about their bullshit religion than they do.
Hell is scriptural, according to the scriptures...
Unless you're referring to the name "Hell" of course, which is not in the Bible.
A place of burning and suffering for all time? Definitely scriptural. There will be much wailing and gnashing of teeth, where the worm dyeth not.
I'm not a Christian, but I do have years upon years upon years upon years of Bible studies.
Bring those receipts! The garbage dump explanation will not suffice (Gehenna)
There is no god. Also, no devil. No heaven, no hell, no angels, no demons.
You can also have years of flat Earth studies, and every other religion that will claim anything as well.
It's you who have to provide the receipts.
Can your god regrow a single fingertip? Deflect a single .22LR round? Just by 0.5mm?
You misunderstand, it's not my God, I don't have one at the moment, but I am accepting applications.
My "receipts" are their claims, collected in the King James Bible (one of many interpretations; not even a complete collection of claims really). I'm able to show what they claim to be true, not the actual truth itself.
I was responding to someone who said they had receipts for their claims (that Hell isn't scriptural), why would I need to provide any? My receipt is the KJV, which is scriptural.
I'm not making the assertion, friend, but I am responding to an assertion.
