The Conditionally Unconditional "Love" Of The Supreme Cosmic Narcissist (and his flying monkeys)

Without knowing your personal interpretations
which your religion (or "faith") consists of, ...

all anyone can do is to point out:
a.) what Bibles all say,
and
b.) what most Christians say.

And then contrast that with healthier ideals.

---
First,
let's get this crucial point out of the way:

Whatever a (hypothetical) GOD plans to do TO someone... ~IS~
the value that (hypothetical) GOD places ON someone.

And the "messenger" is also automatically guilty of the same.

Think about it.

As I stand,
here and now,
your theoretical "God"
places an infinitely-negative value on my existence.

What he sees as my WORTH
is another way of saying:
what he find me worth-y of;
which is identified by:
what state-of-existence he would cast me into
and for how long.

So you can SAY your "God" loves me.
But no.

I know the difference between abuse and love.
 But you clearly don't. 

And this is why I'm constantly explaining to very well-intending people
that it's not enough to say "show love",
in a world of people who think abuse is love.
 
Christianity is a leading cause of that problem in our world. 

People who don't yet grasp the difference,
must first be helped to understand.

Per the narrative,
he either hates me  
or non-values me
so much that he would not even hesitate to toss me into
either:
a.)
a state of horrific and endless suffering.
or
b.)
eternal death/non-existence;

depending on which sect guided your interpretations.

BUT ...
he sees everyone's amazing *POTENTIAL WORTH*
as eternal sycophants (super-fans);
propping up
his huge and delicate ego
with perfect care;
forever.

If we are found adequately USEFUL for that UTILITY,
then he will "judge" (assess; e-value-ate) us as:
worth-y
of keeping around forever;
in a state of perpetual bliss,
as his (infantile) Royal Ass-Kissers (I'm guess you'll work in shifts?)
forever and ever.
----
 Now, compare that to a healthy and sand mindset about love.

If I feel personally wronged by someone,
I just have a personal discussion with them;
if they're courageous and accountable enough to humor it.

If they're not, then my view of them has been justified.
But that doesn't cause me to want to kill them, or torture them.

Nor does it cause me to want an innocent person to suffer and die in their place.

If I were a GOD, 
I could correct ALL such situations 
by healing their brain; causing a natural growth of the person. 
They'd eventually become willing and able to own their shit.
 /Problem solved.
And it would never fail. Because our attitudes, and personalities, and every facet of a person's perceptions of reality ..
 are emergent results of neurophysiology. And that can always be rewired with the needed environments and other catalysts.

But since I'm NOT a "God", 
I can't make that happens.
So I have to settle for letting shitty people get away with shitty shit. 

And yet, again,
my willingness to forgive even the most grievous injustices 
is much more developed than most people's.

All anyone has to do is demonstrate true repentance;
which has
nothing whatsoever
to do with them "choosing to believe"
 I once had one of my multiple personalities make a meat-puppet out of human flesh,
walk around in it,
piss some people off intentionally,
get beat up badly on purpose,
and then quietly slip out of that meat-puppet for 2 days, so everyone would think IT was ME, so that they'd say I DIED, 
so that my murderous anger could be satiated
by a mock sacrifice to my ego. 

 THAT SHIT 
is batshit crazy.

 THAT SHIT
is your religion.

 THAT SHIT 
is not how sane people think about love and forgiveness. 

Instead, all a hater/enemy has to do
is say "I'm sorry. I fucked up.
This was how ___.
 This was why ___.
But this is what I eventually realized ____".
And this was the catalyst that caused me to go through that personal growth ____".
Can you ever forgive me?"


And then I'll say "sure. Want to get a coffee somewhere?".

It's that simple.

And if they have NOT done something horrible, 
then:
there's nothing to forgive.

I don't stalk around, peeping for petty mistakes people make,
and then keep getting angry about them being imperfect.

Nobody is that petty and irrational;
except your "God". 

Most of what your religion says he's having a hard time just "forgiving" us for
is ridiculous.

The terms and conditions for that are equally ridiculous. 

Your imaginary friend 
is a special level of crazy. 

No wonder the Stoics rejected it entirely.
