I got a new perspective. I have been an atheist for about 2 years. I finally found God through meditation. Not the big guy in the sky, but through the inner God, and through what Jesus taught about peace. But I am still debating something. You go to hell if you're bad. Only actions that hurt someone else are actions that I consider bad. But if someone gets behind the wheel plowed (I confess, I've done it 3 times but I was okay) and causes an accident that kills someone, I'm sure they go to "hell". But than why did God create automibiles, or accidents? I believe now, but there's some shit that I still haven't worked out in my dome. Why should there be a propensity to sin, or the oppurtunity to unintentionally do wrong?

God didn't create automobiles - they were invented at the end of the 19th century by humans, and are manufactured by humans to-day.

i think a better question might be why would god create conscious beings and allow them to go to hell?

maybe some fucking remedial classes might be a little more humane than eternal suffering?

^haha, funny but true. But I believe hell (and heaven) are now, depending on perception. The whole good and bad aspect of life...or, of human judgement of life, as it is. I think such dualities are there to be transcended, not wallowed in. Heaven (perfect good) comes with hell (absolute horror) as a matter of course. Who wants any part of that?
