That Doesn't Really Answer Anything

"If you were judged you judged yourself."

Nah, not really. If you don't see how you sound self righteous (particularly when I never mentioned myself or my pasttimes) then I really don't know what else to say. But whatever, it's immaterial.

Regarding what you said in response to my comment on free will: again, that doesn't answer anything. Statistically speaking, if you grow up in a Muslim country you will become and remain a Muslim. Statistically speaking, if you are physically, emotionally or sexually abused as a small child you have a greater chance of having serious mental problems later in life, and performing those acts yourself. Statistically speaking, you can pretty accurately predict the behavior of any sufficiently large group of people. Stimulus-response. My argument is that if God, knowing that when he creates a soul and puts it into the body of a newborn in Saudi Arabia, knowing that this child will be born and raised a Muslim, (again, statistically regardless of your "free will") sends that human to Hell, it was through no fault but the fault of God. This is only one small, specific example. If you want more, I got 'em.

"Answer( God doesn't cheat. )"

According to you, God can do anything he wants. How would this be cheating?
