Not at all surprising. Many stupid people feel that way. They tend to become human munitions.If I chose a religion it would be the one that gives me 42 virgins.
Another example of a poor understanding of the scriptures.
Another example of a failure to present an argument.
But hey, we're not talking creation or evolution here, so maybe you won't be quite so obtuse. Worth a shot, anyway.
When you say I haven't understood the scriptures, clearly you mean that there is a scriptural meaning to the soul, heaven and hell that renders my argument here moot. Why don't you share that understanding with all of us?

Once you introduce the possibility of a all-powerful, supernatural entity into a belief system, all logical parameters fall by the wayside.
It's the reason we keep religion out of science.
And it's a two way street.

Its your belief and not fact
Show me from the scriptures otherwise.
From which scriptures would you like to hear from You Were Excreted? Hindu? Tao? Buddhist?
Or is your bullshit religion the only "one true way"?
If you envision time as a timeline like we are taught in school I think your point would have more weight. But that's not the way time works. Time moves differently for everyone. Time isn't constant: it speeds up and slows down and (at least in theory) can even overlap. Since there is not one constant line of time that means past, present, and future all exist simultaneously...most physicists would agree with that....even that each person's perception of "the present" is different within time. In human form we can only perceive "the present" but that's not to say in a spiritual (or absolute form) we do not perceive it all collectively.
I hope that makes sense.

It does, but it doesn't really alter what I was saying. From the individual perspective, time is a timeline/sequence of events. That it may also be understood differently is true, but means only that time is relative.
The traditional conception of spiritual immortality in Christianity is one in which time is experienced subjectively in the usual linear fashion without end, either in bliss or in torment. (I acknowledge your point about the lack of Biblical support for the conception of Hell; nevertheless it's a common belief among Christians and also among Muslims.)
