    John 3:18

    Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.

    So I guess it’s not “follow the rules or you go to hell,” it’s “believe in Jesus or go to Hell.” In other words, the vast majority of humans who have ever lived are in Hell according to the Bible.

      Perhaps, but what does that matter? Is that a good enough reason to want to join them?

        Seems like it was a good enough reason for Christians to spend the last 2000 years murdering non-believers.

          So because people have murdered for thousands of years we should just continue murdering people, is that what you’re saying?

            Nope, I’m saying Christians have had no problem murdering unbelievers for the last 2000 years, so maybe Christianity isn’t as great as you make it out to be.

              People have killed their babies by putting them in microwave ovens. Perhaps microwave ovens aren’t as great as they are made out to be.
