I am a sinner, and I will go to hell. Therefore I can do NOTHING to stop this, except hope sincerely that God(s) in Its' Infinite mercy will spare me.. I can't bother to even begin to condemn anyone else, because the blame is solely on me.

If God(s) can save anyone, he can and will surely save everyone, otherwise why even buy into this God(s) in the first place?

I've never understood the smug self-righteousness of some, as even since I was a likkle yut on the playground I cared for folks, and wanted not to see them become 'good church going christians' but rather that a kind and generous God(s) could save them and us all despite of and in full acknowledgment of our inherit weaknesses.

God(s) loves humans as they are, flaws and all, in fact especially the flawed and crazy ones, just as a parent gives the most attention to the kids who cause all the problems, not the goodie goodies who fend well for themselves

Seems very unfair doesn't it. I'm gonna start causing trouble so God can save me MORE. Thanks for the tip.
