So, because I have an opinion of my own, you won’t share yours?
That’s not what I said. I said you will color my answer with assumptions you’re already making to prove your point. And you don’t seem to be asking with the intent of me saying in what way those assumptions are inaccuate.

Suffice it to say God is not torturing people.
So the Bible is lying?
Where does the Bible say that God is torturing people ?
Many places. Jesus says it all the time. It’s in Revelation.

Is that a joke? It is common knowledge how the Bible describes hell. There’s also the Revelation bit where Jesus Christ has the privilege of a front-row seat for watching the torment of those that took the mark of the Beast.

God apparently tortured Christ himself on the cross if you believe that whole thing about Christ taking God’s punishment for us.
Well, we obviously don’t have the same Bible. AFAIK, Christ IS God (you know, the whole Trinity stuff). So claiming that God tortured Jesus is just a lack of knowledge of dogma, unless you assume that God is masochistic and inflicts pain on Himself. 😃
I guess you could call him a masochist. I know the trinity is all one but the Bible definitely handles them like individual characters in the gospels.
And again, I’m not saying that I believe it. I’m just saying that we must not make the sacred texts say anything.
I’m not. I’m doing the opposite. I’m taking them in context for what they do say.
