Do you want to take up the challenge?
The anti-climax your last ten posts has made a petering out of any expectation in me of a challenge.

You appear to be using a person who agrees with you as a proxy ~ yet again ~ so you don't have to confront the poster who actually 'preaches' the thing you disagree with?
I am suggesting that the content that I quoted is wrong and making a respond that covers the very initial post of this thread.
Originally posted by @philokaliaThe same thing I raised several times with you but which caused you either to deflect or slink off. Do you know what a "proxy" is?

plural proxies
1 : the agency, function, or office of a deputy who acts as a substitute for another
2 a : authority or power to act for another
b : a document giving such authority; specifically : a power of attorney authorizing a specified person to vote corporate stock
3 : a person authorized to act for another : procurator
I made a post where I addressed some point about hell.
I do not see what your posts have to do with me.
How about you spell it out.

It is not the job of Christians to defend "atheists like you" OR your anti-Christian ideologies. Fight your own battles.
Do you think "atheists like you" should support the anti-atheist beliefs of some Christians? Probably not.

I get called a "Christian basher" for talking people like sonship about it; and yet some of those people agree with me!

Originally posted by @divegeesterYou get called a “Christian basher” for a lot more than that and you know it. You exclusively attack Christians and the only time you ever discuss Christianity is to either mock it or claim Jesus “personally” burns people alive for eternity. And you do it quite a bit.
It is interesting.

One can discuss whether annihilationism or an eternity in hell await the damned without going to the hyperbolic and blasphemous lengths you go to.
I think someone said a few weeks ago on here that you think everyone goes to heaven and hell doesn’t exist. Why not start a thread on that if that’s what you believe? I’m sure more than just myself would love to see the Biblical support for that position.

'For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a loud command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will be the first to rise. After that, we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will always be with the Lord. Therefore encourage one another with these words.'

Originally posted by @romans1009Have you ever realized the similarity between Protestant Christianity (especially of the Reformed variety I adhere to) and, I think it's Zen Buddhism? In general, both ideologies hold the concept that whatever happens, it is the way it was supposed to happen. All this back and forth about things not going the way they were supposed to--in the grand scheme--is kind of meaningless.
