[Descan]

First, God does not "love" everyone, per se. He only loves those whom He chose to save from hell.
Second, this is not "unfair" or "evil" because God made us, therefore we are His to so with as He will. If you make a clay pot, you can choose what to do with the pot. Break it, fill it with water, paint it green, and so on.

And if you make a sentient being, like... say, a baby. You can choose to do what you will. Break it, fill it with water, paint it green.

ohwait

So yeah, God's a dick. Creates a bunch of people, but only "saves" some of those people from the hell he himself created. Eternal hellfire is a punishment, it's torture. There's no way to repent from Hell (even if you assume that people can get into God's graces, after you get flung into the Pit you're stuck there. Apparently you can't even do that, though! Just the luck of the draw on whether God made you to kiss his ass or to be burned forever, nothing *you* can do about it!) so it's just sadism. Not someone I'd give a cup of sugar to, let alone worship.

And keep in mind, these are *people*. Not ants, and not clay pots. I don't buy in to the idea that "Oh we're so lowly next to god, it'd be like us caring about ants!" That's a bullshit argument for so many reasons. Not to mention, the damn thing created us all special-like, maybe he should give a damn.

[Bauglir]

Oh, no. We're not doing this. Get the theology out of this thread.

[Descan]

* Descan vibrates theologically in Bauglir's general direction.

It's an excellent point, and makes perfect, logical sense.

Sure, he's allowed to do it. But it's still a dick move, if not outright evil. Not becoming of a deity at all, poor form, 0/10 would not worship again.

*Lyeos tosses his pamphlets on why everyone should worship him if he ascends to godhood away.
Well, looks like that plan is a no-go.

I felt I needed to inject some humor. Sorry if it was bad.

[Descan]

Awww, I'd worship yoooou!

... I wouldn't *mean* it, but I can pay lip service! That's the best kind of service, really~

[Yoink]

Just be glad I'm not the one in control up there.

[hops]

I still worship Descan. That didn't stop being a thing.

I hope none of these gods that keep popping up try to demand a tithe.  I need that money for sinfully secular things.

Nah, we're cool, bro. Human sacrifices is where it's at. Just send me, maybe, five or a hundred per month and we'll be good.

Okay, cool, I can handle that.

I'm not sure if this is an innuendo or I'm just thinking too hard.

Everything's an innuendo if you think to hard.
