I find it problematic that you say it's a death we deserve. God is all like, "worship me or be tortured forever!" That's kinda toxic to be honest, and doesn't sound like love to me.

We chose hell. Hell was made for satan and his angels. Heaven is prepared for us. And whether we don't like something or not doesn't dictate it's truth. I don't like Trump but he still exists.

Um, speak for yourself, I didn't choose anything.

However, you dodged my point. Do you honestly think a "loving God" should torture his creations for eternity for not worshipping him? That doesn't sound evil to you? Also, are the people from other cultures that were around before Christianity in hell?

It's not for not worshipping Him. It's for turning against Him.

Yeah ok sure, either way it still sounds petty to me.

Also, you can just say you don't know the answers to my questions it's fine, I'm not really surprised.
