Re: If God exists...
[ QUOTE ]
First lets suppose that God does exist. Next lets suppose that God is all good. I happen to believe both the above. If these two statements are true then I don't believe that hell exists. At least not an eternal hell. How could a loving, forgiving god, allow for someone to suffer in hell?
Your thoughts...

I think you need to make the extra assumption of all-powerful. Whereupon your statement that hell cannot exist is really an extension of your definition of all-good.
Then what you are really saying becomes, “if an all powerful being existed that could not allow eternal hell to exist, then eternal hell would not exist.” In which case I would tend to agree with you.
