It is not good enough that heaven exists for the innocent and the faithful - it must exist for me, raight now.

Nah I’m saying that if a parent subjected their kids to these trials of faith, CPS would remove their kids before you could say pedophile priest. If there is a god (massive if), then god’s abusive and unworthy of acknowledgement let alone worship. If a being so powerful as to be able to create a universe from nothing with a snap of their fingers allows suffering to happen in their creation, then torture is the point of the system. Not cool. Either god’s an asshole or he doesn’t exist.

All suffering on earth is a means for us to repent and improve ourselves, since we are actually created imperfect.

Do you know how unhinged that sounds to someone who grew up without religion? Do you give your pets regular beatings to cleanse their soul? Put gravel in your kids shoes so they’ll become a good person? Self flagellation doesn’t make you a good person, it makes you insane (or kinky I guess ). Punishing someone for their imperfections doesn’t make you loving, it makes you an asshole. Please explain why allowing someone to die slowly from cancer while vomiting their guts out from the chemo makes god a cool dude?

SV. Rødt are a bunch of idealistic idiots, Senterparti don’t understand that policies favouring agrarianism don’t benefit the country in the grand scheme of things, arbeiderparti have sold out the working class, høyre and Frp are doing their best to turn Norway into the USA, venstre is responsible for privatising the rail network, green is not realistic, and KrF… Just no. Although none of the parties agree with my stance that Norway should have enough nuclear weapons to turn the entire Eurasian continent into a glowing lake. But Sosialistisk Venstreparti is the closest for most policies.
