You warn your middle school aged children to stay out of the neighbor's yard because there's a dangerous dog that will attack them. Are you saying that they don't really have a choice to obey you, given that disobedience would result in being maimed and possibly killed?Of course it is. Your invisible guy is the one I should be glad about that he didn't make me a robot. Which on its face, is absurd.Which is irrelevant to the question.Your assuming that your invisible guy is proven and only gives me two choices. No such being has been proven.That's not the question. Would you prefer to have been made unable to choose for yourself or not?IOW, would you prefer brown oranges, or orange like god made them? And what I say again is, prove to me that god made oranges oranges, and we'll go from there. Or in your case, prove to me that there's a god who even cares about that shit first, then you'll have something to build on.I'm asking you. Would you prefer to be a robot, unable to rebel against God, or would you prefer to have the freedom to rebel?
But for argument's sake, why would your invisible guy give me free choice and then punish me if I don't choose the way he wanted me to? Because that's not a real free choice, it's saying I'll give you a choice but if you don't choose my pick, I'll fucking roast you in a fire forever.
A choice is still a choice, even if the consequences are severe. In this case, you're continually ignoring the fact that God provided a way to avoid the punishment altogether. Your problem is not that God punishes sin, it is that you do not like His remedy.
