The vast majority of mankind will never find the Lord. Indeed, the majority of mankind will be lost for eternity. This doctrine may be difficult to accept, yet true nonetheless! But where, oh where, I ask, is the warning? I look to our pulpits, but they utter not a word of this place. Why do the vast majority of "pastors" refuse to preach hell fire?
HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of souls are going to burn in hell for ever and ever and ever. Is this not important enough to deserve our utmost attention? Why does Joel Osteen, poster boy for Colgate, refuse to preach hell fire?
My friends, Brothers and Sisters, allow me to speak plainly...
We need to cast out these cotton-candy preachers!
We need to finish with them!

You sound like a real fun person, there, Brent.
...Then again, if you start preaching all of that fire and brimstone shit, we just might win some converts to our side. Preach away!
Not a follower of Origen, obviously. Origen, one of the earliest church fathers taught that everyone , even Satan, would eventually be redeemed. Of course, the church later declared this position to be a heresy.
Go for it Bent®!
It's idiots like you that finally gave me pause about the Wholly Babble.
Any god that would condemn 99.9% of all humankind to eternal torture, mostly for minor offenses, isn't worthy of worship.
The more you push this crap, the more people will turn it off.
Edit: Dang! MK beat me to the "Bent" gag.

I'd like to think that it's because they are beginning to see hell as the ridiculous imaginary place that it is. However, it's more likely that they don't do that in order to keep church attendance up so that there are more people to pass the tray to. That's not unreasonable, it it?
I haven't seen condemnation like this since Jonathan Edwards.

No, not that one.

No, not him either.

YEAH! THAT GUY! Oh, what a crazy nut he was.

I admit to being confused...is he saying that the kid from 'The Sixth Sense' doesn't brush his teeth after eating cotton-candy?
When I was an undergrad, those sorts of preachers used to show up on campus from time to time. They ranted like lunatics, and spewed hatred at everyone who passed them. People stopped to listen, but most of the ones I talked to were there to make fun of them, and I never saw them convert anybody. So, maybe the "cotton candy" preachers realize that kind of crap doesn't work? It certainly didn't make me want to do anything, except maybe throw things to shut them up.
Honestly, how is this guy able at all to hold the laugh and not burst when saying this?. If I were God, I would be very disappointed if I had to cast all the humankind I created to Hell. It would be a signal of failure, not just theirs, mine too. Any person who follows a religion wants to have a relief or a support in our lives. If Hell is overpopulated, it ceases to be a state, a chastisment. It means nothing. That´s why all those preachers refuse to do what you want. They think that faith is more, that it means to bring meaning into people´s life. Well, you can be a troll as well............

May be right, but why don't we start with hellfire preachers?
"Fundier Than Thou" Award nomination seconded! This Brent character is quite a hateful, angry person, isn't he?
Adrian: I don't actually see Jesus in that drawing, so I'm going to guess that he's in one of the privies; they're right by that cotton candy that Brent seems to despise so much.
~David D.G.
"Hey guys, lets go to schools and tell little children they'll be tortured forever and ever unless they worship something that can't be heard, felt, or seen!"
Please fall on a spike.
Actually Brent, if you want to get "fundamental" about it, the bible says only 144,000 will go to heaven, out of the 9 billion on planet Earth. But I am guessing your preacher never talks about that, now does he? Sounds like a real candy ass to me.
This is Joel Osteen:

Notice the teeth? Hard not to. This is why B-boy calls him "poster boy for Colgate."
This is Joel with his wife:

I have serious doubts Joel would be married to this Barbie-doll if he spent day after day preaching hatred and condemnation. Perhaps that's why he's a cotton-candy-ass preacher.
And this is (get) Bent:

Note the lack of a smile. Note the lack of a girl. These are the real reasons Brat is so jealous. He gave himself up to the Dark Side of the Christ, and all he ended up with was a wimpy goatee and a vacant, glazed expression.
The reason B®ent believes that "hundreds of millions of souls are going to burn for ever and ever and ever" is because B®ent is five-point Calvinist.
Calvinists believe that only those whom God has elected (or predestined) for salvation will be saved.
Calvinists as extreme as B®ent (or Fred Phelps, for that matter) believe that the only people who will be saved are those who agree with people like B®rent or Fred Phelps.
At this point, God has very little to do with it: it's more, "believe as I do, or you're going to Hell."
Ye gods.... I guess I'd be angry too, if Someone's idea of a practical joke was to add a dash of sheep genes to my DNA, but I'd direct that anger toward the prankster, not play toady to Him and hate the world.
David D.G. : as far as I can tell, Jesus is nowhere to be found, just like in reality.
(Just thinking... if I wanted to be a royal shit, I'd post B®ent's picture on some hugely public forum, then start a pool with the question, "Does B®rent have blond pubic hair?!)

If you look at his other posts, Brent also believes in the US govt. setting up massive re-education camps to train Americans in the 'respect for God and country' ideals he has for us all. He also believes in mandatory gun ownership for all males and banning women in the workplace. Somehow he also thinks this can be done democratically, tho he never quite answers the question of what he would do if the voters rejected his vision. He also professes great admiration for Francisco Franco, and, oddly, is not even American, but Swiss.
So a 20-year-old Swiss fascist who wants to force all Americans to share his political and religious beliefs. Quite a piece of work.
"Oh, yeah, millions upon millions will burn in hell forever."
Yawn--!!
I guess his god loves the screams of torment from babies that never heard of his sick "god".
See ya in hell, old boy!
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
