If God is our pure, all-loving creator, can he really


... can he really turn his back on sinners and allow them to suffer for eternity in hell?

This is too simplified. The 2nd description references Christians in particular.

This is not how it works in the Christian (new testament) belief: We do not go to hell for being sinners. We go to Hell when we choose not to accept Jesus as God's son and our Saviour. The only way to enter Heaven is through Him.

Therefore, if you don't believe or accept this then you are CHOOSING NOT to go to Heaven. It's a choice.

Why would you want to (or how could you) spend eternity in a place you don't believe in anyway? That's ridiculous.

In the Old Testament sinning was the reason. But they could not stop sinning (as Christians also cannot stop even now) which is why God finally had to send Jesus. He knew none of us would make it. We needed Jesus to die for our sins.

How simple for us now. We get to still sin but as long as we accept Jesus as our Saviour we are in.

It's Jewish people who do not believe Jesus is the Son of God so perhaps they are the ones this movie should be focusing on. They still believe it is sinning that separates them from God. Not Christians as the description explains wrongly.

However, there are many different religions and Heavens. But people are very intrigued by Satan so Christians get a lot of attention in film and a lot of anger spewed at them. imo

Again though, Christians sin as much as anyone else so not sure why people think Christians THINK they are sin free. Because they don't.

Yes, they appear to "judge" others but what they are really doing, in their eyes, is helping others to not make the mistakes they "try" to avoid.

You think half of the Christian men aren't gay? Of course they are but they chose to live a different life because that is what they believed they HAD to do. But now it's not like that. They can be Gay as long as Jesus is their Saviour. (Just an example of the ridiculousness poured out by some Christians)

Christians entire religion now is very simple. Believe Jesus is the Son of God and the only way to heaven and you are in.
