God Is A Psychopath
Has anyone ever thought before:
If God really does love me, why then would he threaten me with eternal damnation in hell where I will be tortured and burned until the end of time?
I personally have come to the conclusion that God clearly has no fucking clue as to what love is. Love isn’t about getting your way, and when you don’t you not only hate the subject of your love, but you want to torture and destroy it. I actually find it quite disturbing that there are many people out there that actually buy into that crap, do none of these people know what love really is?
Anyone that believes that god really loves them, but would send you to hell if you ever decided not to praise and worship him not only has no concept of love, but should seriously consider going to a psychiatrist, that’s just psychopathic thinking.

Yes. It has been the subject of my past two blog entries. Here are quotes from “Scrupulosity, OCD and the Doctrine of Hellâ€
I was told even more often that I had to trust God because he loves us, but it was simply impossible for me to really believe this. If he really and truly loved us, then he would never assign us infinite punishment for finite sins or make our salvation so heavily dependent on the hour of our death.
I simply couldn’t love a being who threatened me with eternal fire if I didn’t follow his rules exactly and who would just completely give up on me once I died. The Christian God was a monster in my eyes whom I grew to fear and despise more and more over the years.

“I actually find it quite disturbing that there are many people out there that actually buy into that crap, do none of these people know what love really is?”
Almost nobody actually simply buys into it. It is a hard sell, and is usually achieved by those already indoctrinated preying on children, addicts, the poor and the desperate. Converting such vulnerable people to a religion is shabby and disgusting behaviour, but those that do it are themselves victims of the same indoctrination, and they see it as the greatest thing you could do for a fellow human being. It really is the opium of the people, “the people” being anyone who is fucked up, oppressed, vulnerable and defenceless.
