Any rational thinking individual looking at all this must reasonably say, "If God made all this, I want nothing to do with it because it's insane." I'm logically in total agreement with the atheist's viewpoint. Years ago, I taught an adult Sunday school for over a decade, I am extremely familiar with Biblical doctrine. I never mentioned Hell because I didn't believe in it. My ingrained higher power belief simply became, God Is. How could the eternal Source of Love make a place of unending torment? He didn't, Hell is a lie. The concept of Hell and Satan was simply made up. Centuries ago, a council of scholars, on the advice of the Romans, agreed on the idea after Christianity had been declared the empire's religion. This would help keep the ignorant masses in line and be a good reason for them to give money. As I mentioned earlier, that worked well, considering the massive wealth of the Catholic Church. I'll inform you of another little truth that is no longer a secret. God did not make this universe and isn't even aware of its existence, the pure logic of this statement will be explained later.
For the atheists' consideration, have you any idea how extremely powerful your mind is? Everything we've seen, heard, tasted, smelled and touched from the moment of birth is stored within our subconscious. We've all had the experience of trying to remember a name and couldn't. Several days later the name pops into the forefront of thought. The reason this occurs is we've placed into our database the question, when the answer is found we're consciously aware. If you'd like a more peaceful life, put positive into your mind instead of negative. This is the reason I haven't watched network news for over 20 years, all they talk about is the negative because the public is comforted by seeing others worse off than themselves. Great for ratings.
