Discussion with an atheist

by Neal on March 10, 2009

I am a twitter user — nealtaylor — if interested, and one of the guys I have been following is a self-proclaimed atheist.

He called the church and Christianity immoral and I took the bait and asked why? His reason is for calling Christianity immoral is that our God sends those who don’t believe into Hell. Now, while we have being discussing this it got me thinking about alot of things including Hell, twitter and discussing with an atheist issues of Christianity.

Does anyone have any suggestions for apologetics about Hell?

My reasoning so far may not be agreed by many but is that Hell is knowing that God is Love and exists without doubt (afterlife wise) and being eternally separated from him. While it may not literally be a place of fire and brimstone — it it will be full of wailing and gnashing of teeth. So, does anyone want to discuss this?

I wrote an essay about hell once. I could dig it out if you’re interested …

Mate – would love to have a read. Let me know if you are interested in knowing who it was I was having the discussion with too.

I’ve emailed you a link to my old essay. Do I know who it was you were speaking to?

Hey Tim – I’ll DM on Twitter with the name.
