Atheist With a Christian spouse

[Zorra]

107. I am soooo glad I don't have that type of all pervasive fear controlling my life.

What kind of fucked up demented horrible heinous monster would cause another being to suffer terribly, torturing them by burning them in total unbearable agony, forever?

I'm not an "atheist". My beliefs are my own, and they are derived from my personal experiences with creation and existence, and I certainly would not presume to tell you, or anyone else, what you or they must believe, nor would I ever consider trying to control you or anyone else by frightening you into believing what I believe, by insisting that you were going to suffer horribly if you did not, based on information consisting of sketchy ancient rumors that someone hammered into my consciousness when I was an infant/toddler, or based in ancient tales in some old book.

You don't, you can't, scare me with your threats of eternal hell if I don't believe what you do, and I don't really think it's cool to try to do this to other DU members, either.

Best of luck to you. May all good things be yours forever, if that is what you wish for yourself.
