Some people believe that God has designed creation such that some are predestined or chosen to be saved and that the rest, who by default have no chance, will be supernaturally kept alive for eternity by Jesus in a place especially designed and maintained by him, where they will be burnt alive in the presence of Jesus and his angels.
Astonishing, isn't it.

Indeed satanic diabolical narcissist would seem rather apt.
If you call me the worst thing one Christian can call another, as you just have, I am not offended.
Why do you think that is?
Edit: cue Robbie trying to reply to me by replying to someone else and hoping I'll read it. Because he's ignoring me. Good times 🙂
