i still dont understand why god wanted humans to be the ones being judged.

Say for example, a dolphin turns gay, and some dolphins ARE gay. Does that dolphin go to hell and gets cooked and eaten by satan alive?
RJT
It's simple logic really, God wants humans to be judged so that his people on Earth can say things like "God is the only true judge" but mean "I am going to use my assumptions about God's standards in order to leverage a better social position for myself by deriding others choices as evil simply because I don't understand them."

not what you guys are talking about, but i found it interesting (excerpt from above wiki link)

quote:
addresses the topics of original sin, theodicy and several others in classic Enlightenment fashion.[27] In Chapter 3, section IV, he notes that "omnipotence itself" could not exempt animal life from mortality, since change and death are defining attributes of such life. He argues, "the one cannot be without the other, any more than there could be a compact number of mountains without valleys, or that I could exist and not exist at the same time, or that God should effect any other contradiction in nature."


woah
