And he's watching you. Yes, now. Yes, all the time. He created you, and everything around you. You following me? And he's going to send you to hell when you die. It's this big horrible place made of fire where you just get tortured for the rest of eternity.

But hang on, he left me this convenient list of things you're not allowed to do if you want to not go to hell. So you should not do anything on this list. Also there's this book or whatever about him. You should read it.

Oh and even if you don't do any of the things you're not allowed to do, you'll still go to hell if you don't ask him to forgive you every weekend and throw money in a bowl and eat a cracker. See, you have to do all this because some other people bullied his kid. But hey, if you don't do any of those things you're not supposed to do, and you throw the money in a bowl and eat your cracker like a good boy, you get to go to heaven. It's like, the opposite of hell. It's this big, warm place where the clouds are made of pillows and all your dreams come true forever.

No seriously, trust me on this one. This is totally legit. A bush caught fire and said most of it to a farmer or something. I don't know, I wasn't there. But trust me.

Trust me or you'll go to hell.

Lol. The only thing that will put you in hell is rejecting Jesus Christ. The only thing that will get you into heaven is accepting Jesus Christ.

Aside from that, works and actions have nothing to do with where you end up for eternity. What your actions on earth DO determine is the degree of punishment you receive in hell or how much treasures you receive in heaven.

Why is not being religious and stating how religious concepts work edgy? I don't know how people can legitimately go on about the War on Christianity in America when no one can even talk about being atheist without being called edgy and confrontational.

no, you are the one coming off looking bad by thinking that anyone on the internet is obligated to prove anything about themselves to you

Why are you getting so defensive for the TC? You think he can't defend himself?

I'm starting to think you're insecure because you've never read a book either.

The Patriarchs lived in the time of grace like we do now, they looked forward to Christ's coming as prophesied in Genesis. After the Israelites were freed from Egyptian bondage they were under the law, which showed them that they couldn't save themselves and needed a saviour. After Jesus rose from the grave all we have to do is put our faith in him.

Which would prove what, beyond that I can google any book and give you a summary of the contents?

Let's say I did list a few dozen books off. Your next argument would have been that I had just googled them, and you would continue this sad attempt at bringing me low with irrelevant discussion about my literary experience.

Much to your dissatisfaction and my boredom, this conversation is going nowhere fast. If you want to hook me, you're going to need a better bait.
