I love this. If your son told you he didn’t love you and was going to go live his own life filled with wrongdoings, etc., would you then say he will suffer for that with eternal damnation because that is the way you have designed things to be (assuming you had that power)? Of course not, if you are truly loving father you would tell your son you love him always. You would not add to the suffering he must already be going through by not having a God he can believe in.I love my son with every fiber of my being, I would die for him. Regardless, when he does something wrong I still must discipline him.
And yet, when the Church talks about hell, this is what it is describing. A God who is perfectly comfortable with having eternal damnation (Hell) … a painful and tortuous place for those who don’t do what He says because they don’t believe.
It really is quite a paradox. One I am not able to believe in at all.
For those who want to tell me I “don’t understand”, please don’t. I understand just fine. I have lived a lifetime trying to sort this stuff out for myself by reading, listening, and asking. I have all the information.
