  • You missed a very, very important keyword there: “deserved.”

    Theologians miss a key point of rational debate where they don’t provide proper definitions and make big assumptions that aren’t great.

    Who defines what the “correct” effect of an action is? Who defines what consequence is deserved by a choice? If God is the almighty being, he decides what is right and wrong.
