My problem with Christianity

My problem with Christianity is the concept of hell as a part of it's belief system. The fact that you can abandon all sense of logic and reasoning any sense of morality simply on the basis of what is believed to be a so-called God is absolute stupidity. What would otherwise be considered evil is somehow acceptable if done by a so-called perfect God.

While I'm here - before heading off for grandchildren chores (bless their little hearts) - a further word from Mr Hart:-

[i]....suffice it here to say that there are moments when I find it difficult not to think that Christianity’s chief distinction among theistic creeds is that it alone openly enjoins its adherents to be morally superior to the God they worship.[/i]

And as said by another on the same subject....

[i]Now, it is notorious that popular ideas of God’s character are of a far lower moral standard than that by which we discern saintliness in men. The saint forgives “until seventy times seven” if anyone sins against him, but by many accounts the Lord does not forgive at all unless the offender grovels before him in an act of sincere contrition.

I suspect that many of our Vulture Evangelists here actual lack a sense of humour; certainly the idea of laughing at themselves has possibly never occurred to them. There is, in a strange way, a sort of humour in Grace.
