~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Believe me, it all depends on how you interpret it. I told you, I do not believe in 'hell' as you have obviously been taught. Neither do I believe in a Godly parent that would do that to his child - but I do think people make their own choices, and God will not interfere with that choice. I thought you agreed with me on that point.

Funny how I simply do not wish to believe in that and can interpret the Bible accordingly, but you have already decided that the Bible says you will burn in hell. When you study the whole Bible, without commentary from people who have their own agenda, it may make a difference to you, that's all I'm saying.
