"Quite frankly I don't care whether or not you believe God exist."
Jonathan Edwards. Enjoy your paradox.
"That just means we Jews and Christians won't have to tolerate you when we're in paradise."
And when all we Atheists simply 'Convert', then do a Jonathan Edwards and still have our 'Salvation' cake & eat it as Atheists, you're gonna wish you lot had never come up with the theological concept of OSAS.
...ah, but then - according to Romans 11:30-32:
'For just as you once were disobedient to God, but now have been shown mercy because of their disobedience, so these also now have been disobedient, that because of the mercy shown to you they also may now be shown mercy. For God has shut up all in disobedience so that He may show mercy to all.
Well, that's your 'Revenge Fantasies'/'Turn or Burn' BS completely fucked, then. Oh, I'm afraid that - via your own 'Word of God' - you will be forced to toleate we unsaved, yet still Saved Atheists; Jonathan Edwards - and OSAS - completely annihilates your argument.
We Atheists are 'disobedient', yet we're still Saved, and therefore are going to Paradise; speaking of which, re. the early part of Romans 11:26-32 - which states that all Jews are going to Heaven regardless of they being religious or not, thus completely fucking up the very basis of Christain doctrine: John 14:6, Muslims believe 'Isa (Jesus) to be an important prophet in Islam. And if even Muslims believe in Jesus - but Jews don't accept him as their 'Messiah'; yet Rom. 11:26-32 contradicts John 14:6 - then...! [/hyper-paradox]
Holy Loopholes, Batman - literally!
So much for the so-called 'Mystery' of the Bible. I'm no Professor of Theology, yet I figured that out. I think so much, I scare even myself, sometimes.
