Salvation. It sounds like I'm being saved from something. What is the threat? From what am I saved?

Which is why, since 1985, I've never been able to figure out why a God would create us out of love and then be more than willing to cast us into a pit of eternal pain and suffering simply because we had the freewill (given to us by Him) to investigate aspects of our condition.

And if one wants to reply, well, it's all in God's plan, etc. I still say...

That's not tough love as defined by human beings.

Are you talking about a human being though?
But seriously...Hell is a church construct, not actually supported by the bible.

I just don't understand how a being that creates a living entity out of love and compassion can consign that same living thing to eternal misery.
G-Man's response of "tough love"...on a level of human comprehension, it makes no sense. If that's what God is truly about, how can we worship him out of anything other than fear?
